On arrival we were pleasantly surprised, the chalet itself was immaculate. Everything was clean and tidy, along with everything you needed, and more, also an unexpected welcome pack. We came here to celebrate our golden wedding anniversary, looking for a quiet, relaxing break and we certainly found it.

This was a great location, peaceful with wonderful views, right on the beach, and lots of interest in the surroundings. The accommodation was very comfortable, and the ground floor and rn suite suited our limited mobility.

This was an absolutely wonderful place to stay despite having periods of driving rain and hail. The weather changes rapidly and so we managed lots of walks, and the view from the chalet was lovely whatever the weather. We found the chalet well-equipped and comfortable, and loved our stay. The walks directly from the house mean that there's plenty tRead moreo see without taking the car out. The beach was invariably deserted, and the castle and St Anthony's well were worth visiting. There was a range of wading birds to enjoy from the front window, and we were visited by cute bunnies in the early morning and evening. We were sad to leave, and would definitely return. Hide

I dont think you could find a more tranquil spot from which to watch the tides flow and the birds feed on the banks. There is even a sparrows nest in the roof of the shed which was very entertaining as were the bats that flew at dusk. Its also perfect to walk out of the cottage straight onto the beach and then walk into Llansteffan for breakfast.

We have enjoyed a fantastic holiday at Eryl and found the location absolutely stunning. To be able to access the beach from our own decking was wonderful and felt very special. We loved slow mornings drinking coffee on the deck and watching the tides ebb and flow. The lounge/sun room was super comfy and very relaxing. Llansteffan is a lovely villaRead morege with the ruined castle watching over it; just a short walk from the holiday cottage - about 15 minutes. The Castle was good for a friendly drink and the food was nice too. Inn at the Sticks was exceptional, 'Welsh Tapas', small plates which were delicious. The area was really interesting, we especially enjoyed walks around Laugharne and Pendine Sands plus a marvellous trip to the National Botanic Garden of Wales which is dog friendly on Monday and Friday.

We had a wonderful two weeks at the cottage, watching the tides come in and the birds feeding on the shore.

We had a lovely week in spite of the driving rain and strong winds. The cabin was cosy and pretty with an absolutely stunning setting right on the beach. Loved watching the curlews wading and the toytown trains across the estuary. A visit to Dylan Thomas home in Laugharne and a walk up to Llansteffan castle were our highlights.
