Great house and host in quiet village
Great communication from Sonia from the very start and a very warm welcome on arrival. It was lovely to have milk and cake waiting so we could have a cuppa and a Welsh cake after our journey before unpacking.
The annex was so clean and we were pleasantly surprised at how well stocked it was. Anything we may have forgotten seemed to be to hand.
There was plenty of room but we spent most of our time outside or in the kitchen/diner. The beds were very comfortable and having more than 1 bathroom very convenient. We felt like it was our home for the week we were there. Knowing Sonia was on hand if we needed her was important but she left us to ourselves.
The views across the valley transfixed us all and Red Kite spotting every evening sat in the garden was amazing.
The pub , just a 5 minute slow walk up the road, gave us a very warm welcome with great food and had its own micro brewery.
The house is just 2 minutes from the A48 meaning all activities (golf, beach, botanical gardens and towns) were within easy reach.
We had a great stay (2 couples) and will be trying to book a return.
Thanks Sonia for looking after us so well.

What a beautiful property!
Just returned home and wanted to just say that we had a wonderful time. Weather was against us but this didn’t really matter. The house is huge, as well as cozy. Everything and more. Sky and Netflix on the tv, WiFi, and the welcome pack was lovely. You can really tell love and attention has gone into making the house pretty much perfect. White hart pub up the road is great as well. Thank you Sonia for a great time.

Late September break
Property is in a beautiful location looking across the Towy Valley towards the Black mountains. Easy access to Carmarthen 6 miles away and ideally placed to explore the western and eastern coastlines. Had a good meal at each of the 2 pubs which are in easy walking distance. Property is spacious and well maintained. Could do with a little more cutlery, but otherwise have no complaints.

Palatial, spotlessly clean, everything as promised.
Everything as advertised. Sonia was a delightful host, who made us feel very welcome.
One suggestion I should make to make life easier for anyone booking this property : include the post code. We had an awful time finding the right house, and had to ask at the pub !

Fantastic stay to explore interior and coast
We had a wonderful few days at the house which has a peaceful location with a couple of great village pubs. The rooms are all huge and the kitchen well equipped. Also very useful having two ensuite bathrooms and a ground floor cloakroom for our family. We stayed here as a base to explore the Gower and Pembrokeshire coast as well as some local sightseeing. Highly recommend.

Wonderful property
A wonderful property, very spacious and a bathroom each for the 2 bedrooms. The property was clean and fragrant with country views and great sunsets.
The kitchen was well equipped although we didn't need to use much.
Location was great, just off the A48 with easy access to Llanelli and Carmarthen and a wee bit longer to Tenby.
The hosts were great with information on the area. Off road parking.
Would definitely recommend.

Lovely place to stay
Recently returned home after a short break away. Anex was spacious and very clean with wonderful countryside views. Coffee, bread and milk etc on our arrival, which was a lovely touch. Owners of the property were very welcoming and happy to help. Thanks Paul for helping with the ramp to get our son's wheelchair into the house. Would highly recommend this as a place to stay, for a family of 4, looking to explore the beautiful sites of West Wales.

Fabulous stay, cannot recommend enough.
Was welcomed on arrival by Sonia and Paul, who after introducing us to the property, then left us to our own devices while still making themselves available if we needed anything. The annexe itself is wonderfully spacious, comfortable with all mod cons, large kitchen/diner that contains everything needed. A beautiful garden with magnificent views makes a stay here so worthwhile, and Sonia also provided a welcome basket of goodies as well as basic provisions of bread, milk, butter etc... that saves an immediate trip to the shops. The village is idyllic, just a mile from the main A roads yet you rarely hear any traffic, also a handy base to visit much of the surrounding areas and has fantastic pubs at either end serving excellent food. Throw in the heatwave while we was there and we feel so fortunate to have enjoyed such a fantastic break. Many many thanks to our lovely hosts, it really was a perfect stay.

Great & relaxing time staying at Sonia’s place.
Very welcoming & hospitable.
Provisions on arrival were a nice touch & greatly appreciated after our journey from N.ireland., as was the heating system which was on for our arrival.
It was suggested that if we needed anything all we had to do was ask.
As we stayed over the Christmas period it was also a pleasant surprise to have a Christmas tree already set up in the living room.
We would have no hesitation recommending Sonia’s place for a group of up to four to stay.
