The village setting was very beautiful but quite remote. That was not a problem for us because we loved the surrounding countryside..

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.
Such a lovely place, very quick and easy to find, plenty of space to park, safe for kids as not near any busy roads and private, super friendly baby cows in a paddock just outside, the cottage is really comfortable, slept very well in this bed! The homemade breakfasts far exceed anything you have in a hotel, Marion is such a lovely host, I'd be very happy to stay here on my own as it feels very safe and welcoming. We will definitely be going back!
Spotlessly clean comfortable house in very quiet area 7 mins drive to town centre. Great location for exploring South Wales. Weather was fab so we really enjoyed eating out in garden Would recommend trip to the Gower and Kidwelli castle..all easily accessed from house. Great Indian takeout nearby which delivers 😀
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.
On arrival we were greeted by two very presentable, polite and very helpful young men. We had a really lovely room with good facilities including a bath. Our evening meal was first class as was the breakfast both served by really pleasant caring staff. Well done Falcon Hotel, we'll stay again.
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
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 .
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
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 :)
Amazing stay at the Spilman Hotel, beautiful and spacious room, exceptionally helpful and polite staff! Right in the centre with pubs and restaurants within walking distance and much more! Cannot wait for our next visit 😊
The toll house looks small but is very spacious inside with all mod cons, and very comfortable definitely worth a stay, we loved this place ideal place to stay for access to all of west wales definitely be back soon
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
Breakfast included in price. Most hotels have stopped breakfast, and kept the price the same. And had VAT reduced during lockdown. The Drovers Arms is good value.
Fantastic facilities. This lady gives you more quality than the best hotels. So much variety for breakfast and evening drinks. Great value and lovely place.
