Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were really spacious, clean, and perfect for a family of 4, but they need redecorating. The location was on the Main Street with easy parking, and the dining experience was very nice with top marks for Presentation. The service was incredible, with Glyn going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. A downside was the noise from the main road with tractors and buses running late into the night and early morning.
For a short break under the roof, I found the hotel to be spacious but could benefit from double glazing to counter the noise of the traffic. The staff were very nice and incredibly welcoming, although I felt the owner could do more to mitigate the noise. The location was very convenient, with excellent breakfast included. The dining experience was wonderful with good local produce, and the facilities were top-notch.
The hotel offers plenty of space and good facilities in a comfortable and spacious setting for three adults. The service is hands-on and helpful, ensuring a welcoming and friendly experience. The location is convenient, especially for exploring West Wales and enjoying the lovely surroundings. The dining experience is excellent with a large choice of quality dishes.
