The location and host were lovely. But, the shower would not turn on, the floor boards were all separating, and the place smelled of curry and mould.
The host was trying his best. But the place needs a bit of care. Little bits need to be done. The iron and shower didn't work. Luckily there was a bath.

The owner nice and helpful
Very old chalet ,not updated since it was built ,old doors ,old bathroom ,peeling wallpaper ,tiny tv ,went for a drink but it was an old bar with old dart board and just a pool table ,no clubhouse, nowhere for grandson to play football ,just a swimming pool and small park ,only used it as a base ,went to folly farm one day and manor park and beach next day ,so only used for sleeping .owner lovely, but this chalet needs a total refurbishment !
I paid cheaper to go on a mini cruise in April to Belgium for a weekend, all meals included !

NOTHING! Terrible Experience - Do NOT Book!
After a 4-hour drive, we arrived to what was easily the worst accommodation we've ever stayed in - and we’ve booked many places through Booking.com over the years.
We weren’t expecting luxury, but for the price paid, we did expect basic cleanliness and functionality. Instead, what we got was appalling.
The smell inside was unbearable. It seemed like the carpets hadn’t been cleaned in decades, and parts of them were missing entirely in the bedroom. The furniture was extremely old - so worn that the leather on the sofa was completely destroyed, making it unusable. The cushion covers looked like they hadn’t been washed since the 1980s.
The worst part? The beds. I was traveling with my elderly father, who couldn't get any sleep because the mattresses were so old you could feel the springs poking through. When we raised this concern, the host replied dismissively, saying, "We can’t cater to all preferences. Since you he did sleep, I assume it wasn’t that bad." That response was deeply offensive and dismissive - especially after we paid full price for this. Also the bed covers were very old and sticky - we had to put our clean clothes on top the covers to sleep - not a nice feeling at all!
To make matters worse, there were no towels provided - we understand this was not ticked as amenity so our bad for not realising but in 2025, this is unacceptable. When mentioned this we were told we should have asked - I really don’t think he would had any - as my wife asked for a hair dryer and he just said he didn’t have it.
We ended up leaving and didn’t stay the second night. Despite this, the host refused even a partial refund, showing no understanding or accountability.
His responses were condescending and rude, even mocking us at times.
When we pointed out the issues, he brushed them off by saying, “Some guests complain every now and then - I WONDER WHY?
To anyone considering booking this place: DON’T - Do yourself a favour and look elsewhere. This place is dirty, outdated, and the host's attitude is completely unprofessional. Truly a disgrace.

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
Nothing. Shame the pool wasn't open but this was out of the owner's control

The location was suitable as used the site as a base. The actual site was maintained well (grounds) although constant noise from gardeners and maintenance men early in the morning !!
The site - not a lot to entertain you on site.
The chalet - SHOCKING !! The whole chalet smelled damp (unused clothes had a smell of damp on them when returned home). The kitchen had a boiler that was so noisy it was really hard to relax in the living area. The bedrooms were fit for purpose but the beds were VERY uncomfortable. The bathroom - OMG where do I start. The bath had been painted to try and hide cracks/chips. The sink was similar and it was worse than a public shower and the booking photos showed a shower cubicle and a separate bath!! No shelf or hooks to hang clothes, towels etc. The passage way had holes in the walls.

Perfect location for family with young child and dog. Quiet and peaceful. Felt like home from home. Good facilities - area to walk dog, park for children, restaurent/ bar within short walking distance from chalet. Plenty of cleaning supplies left, covid precautions taken. Was shown around chalet by owner. Brilliant wifi.
Gate was missing from fence surrounding chalet, although not a problem if you put the outdoor chairs in the way.

Ken was a lovely host and made us feel very welcome. Lovely location. Cabins would have had a excellent rating if decor was updated. Cabins were clean, bed linen was clean and cabin contained everything we needed. Bar was friendly and welcoming. Would stay again.
Beds were uncomfortable, decor was very dated, cupboards not matching and falling apart, boiling water in kitchen but bathroom sink didn't get hot, shower was OK though. The cabin was however clean so the decor was disappointing.
8.3 / 10.0
Everything it was tranquil a real get away from it all the accomodation had fantastic views and had everything you needed and was clean and tidy. The host's were absolutely lovely and couldn't have been more helpful.
