The cottage is spacious, comfortable, warm and cosy. It has a fully appointed kitchen for self catering and the bathroom has the best shower ever. Off street parking was a bonus.

We saw the town on a Sunday. Vey quiet.
We saw the town on a Sunday. Vey quiet. However, there is more to the town than first glance (just), but too much retail - so much unoccupied. Given history, very little historic class on view. The hey day has gone, what now? Perfect accommodation, very close to town.

There are some really interesting shops and businesses in the town centre. Sadly, in common with many towns, there are too many empty/closed shops and rundown buildings. That said Carmarthen's location is ideal for visiting the NBGW

Carmarthen was a nice town to walk around for a day but I wouldn’t want to stay longer than a long weekend. The castle was locked with no reason or explanation when the internet states it’s open ? Many tourists were also under the same impression as us and miss informed by Google.

For a bank holiday and festival weekend, there seemed to be very little going on. Difficult to find a restaurant meal, so had to get takeaway. From that point of view, we probably didn't see the town at its best.
Enjoyed a trip on the steam railway, and few minutes drive from the town, and know from previous visits to the area that the surrounding countryside is lovely,as is the river.
The Boars Head is a town centre Pub/Hotel/restaurant.
Welcoming staff, nice room. I would stay here again if I was in the area. Good breakfast with one exception, the sausages are awful. I know the hospitality business is under financial pressure, but cheap budget sausages aren’t going to help. Everything else about the Boars Head was great, the room, free parking, lovely staff and an excellent pint of cask Double Dragon.
We had a delightful stay at the beautiful countryside cottage in Carmarthenshire, Wales. The cottage exudes elegance and coziness, complemented by breathtaking surroundings with a charming river view. Anne, the host, is not only friendly but also incredibly supportive—a truly down-to-earth woman. The convenient location, just five minutes from Skanda Vale Temple, adds to the overall appeal of this wonderful retreat.
Very peaceful location, a perfect place to de-stress but not a difficult last little distance from the main fuel carriage way, a very convenient location for exploring south Wales and getting away from the hustle and bustle.
Also the Hot Tub was always fantastically warm and clean.
On the last evening we got a visit from a local hedgehog.
The bedroom was a good size and the bathroom was spacious. I enjoyed the full cooked breakfast, including a vegetarian version, the coffee, fruit and yogurts.
The hotel was in the middle of the town with varied shops, cafes, etc. There was very convenient access to buses and trains. It was easy to get to local places of interest.
Wish we would have found this place years ago, we come down to south wales once or twice a year. Bringing our dog means we are limited to were we can stay, but the potting shed is just what we needed. The potting shed was like a TARDIS, the pictures don't do it justice.
The hotel/pub is very basic , cheap furniture in the room , very small telly etc etc . It was clean and staff were good , the breakfast was very good . You pay for what you get ! £63 inc of breakfast is cheap in todays market especially in a town like Carmarthen .
Wonderful room which was very comfortable and had all the necessary facilities. Also a fridge in the room which was an unexpected extra. The breakfast was well cooked. The location was great as it was in the centre of the town and included parking. Friendly staff
The fact that it was on a farm. The breakfast choices were very good, and the owner just lovely. Friendly & helpful.
The location was perfect for where we wanted to go, & actually would have been perfect for anywhere on that side of South Wales.
Very friendly and helpful staff.
We booked a room for 6 but ended up receiving a room for 8
Due to a leakage from heavy rain.
We only came to stay for the night to go to Skandavel early morning Pooja, so couldn't say much else about the area .
The little snug is a really cosy place to stay in Wales. The location is just perfect with the car easy to move to the nearby town. Thanks Jo for create such a lovely place. And make ours stay just a perfect break out of the busy London 👌 ✨️
I really liked the personal, they were so great, had a good laugh with them during the evening , they were amazing 🤩
Room was exactly as described, clean and very comfortable beds.
Hotel is literally in town centre :)
We always have a good time when we visit Kaowood Country Park which is why we have booked again for next year. We also like Wales and use Kaowood as a base to visit local towns and villages
Absolutely everything , anybody thinking of taking a break with the clean fresh air in Wales just go ahead and book as soon as you can . The host couldn't make you more welcome
As we only needed a bed for the night, Ivy Bush Hotel was fine, good comfy bed, nice breakfast and ideal location. Don't know about other facilities as did not use any.
The rooms are large and spacious, well equipped and comfortable.
The owners are lovely and welcoming and the hotel is right in the centre of town, absolutely perfect.
