Woke up to cows mooing every day â¤ï¸ Loved the log burner and the super king size bed. Thank you too for the Welsh cakes and the teabags. The only tiny niggle was the lack of cleaning stuff. With dogs coming and going, I wanted to keep the floors clean downstairs so a little bit of floor cleaner would have been welcomed. (I bought some). Other than that, it was a lovely relaxing and comfortable break. Thank you!

Rural yet not far from amenities. Lovely comfortable beds and good facilities in the property. Lovely enclosed garden. Opposite a dairy farm so flies were a problem. I'd recommend a flynet is fitted on the back door. No info pack on arrival or number for new hosts (property was sold not to long ago) We figured out most things ourselves but still really handy to have a guide for the log burner/heating/hot water etc.

Kitchen with plenty of plates, mugs, etc and loads of storage space. Dishwasher and washer dryer, and a large fridge freezer, plus a washing line with pegs provided. The living room is spacious, and the pool table was a real plus. Great smart TV, and a cupboard with board games. Comfy furniture, and lovely comfy beds. The stairs split in two directions, meaning that the master bedroom and bathroom are slightly separated from the other two bedrooms and bathroom which was really helpful, allowing different generations to come and go without disturbing each other. Great location, with Kidwelly about 2 miles away having a large co-op, and chippy, and Carmarthen a bit further away with lots of shopping including a Morrisons superstore. Definitely visit Pembrey Country Park with one of the best beaches anywhere.
