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 .

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.
As my wife was attending a concert at the (very) nearby Lyric Theatre for an evening performance this was a first class location, right in the middle of town.
Hotel was very clean and our room was well presented with absolutely no complaints whatsoever.
Everything we wanted and needed for our one night stay.
Staff that I dealt with were welcoming and polite, breakfast (included) was very good.
I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel, and if and when we come back to Carmarthen, it will be where we choose to stay.
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.
A very warm welcome. Good instructions on how to access the car park, which is a bit tricky, but vans and mercs got in ok. The location is excellent being 2 minutes from the town centre. There are pubs, restaurants and cafes all within 5 minutes. Breakfast was very good value. The bar is adequate, I found the wine to be good value. Packed lunches are also offered. Our room was in the annex and was really good.
I was travelling as a single parent with five children and needed a spot to stay overnight. The six-bed dormitory was just fine for our needs, linen was clean and helpful to have an en-suite with shower to ourselves. The accommodation was basic but for the price I was happy. Setting absolutely beautiful and the proprietor very helpful.
Really genuine and friendly- hard working people. Beautiful place to stay with good access to West and South Wales. There is nothing about the place or the owners to dislike. I travel for work and intend using this b&b regularly if possible. There is also the self catering option available in the same grounds.
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.
Nice and quiet location but within short reach of beaches and also Camarthen. Good base for exploring that part of south Wales. Decor was a little bit dated but clean and comfortable and excellent value. It had everything we needed. Owner was very friendly and helpful
perfect location for one night stay on our way to get the ferry in Fishguard. hotel is small but our room was spacious, bed comfortable and the breakfast was good too. The Staff were all very friendly and helpful! It is right in the middle of the town too.
Excellent hotel, great staff and location in Carmarthen. Very good value for money and so much better than the usual hotel chains.
I've booked again for the end of October and looking forward to it again, Carmarthen is a lovely town to visit.
Thanks
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.
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 👌 ✨️
The room was spacious and accessible. The bed was fairly comfortable. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of variety. There was plenty of parking at the hotel and it was a very short walk to the town centre.
Beautiful location, easy access by road, near the town & the beach.
Tidy, well furnished chalet with everything you need.
Plenty of things to do in the area (30min. drive radius).
Good communication with host.
Good value for money
The hotel was well presented, the rooms clean and a good size. The staff were incredibly friendly and I could not fault the experience. When I return back to Carmarthen, I will not hesitate to stay here again
Very good location in the town, room had everything I could want for a short stay. Hotel bar was good. Breakfast menu was very good, and quality was also good. Staff welcoming and friendly.
Location good, 4 mile to Carmarthen, fuel nearby, able to go in multiple directions to see South Wales Everything worked and all cooking utensils there.
