Overall a lovely quirky cottage, with lots of unique features.
The bathroom, and quirkiness of the property. All the little garden seating areas.
Upstairs landing needs much more light, and to be controlled before you go upstairs. It's dark!
Main bedroon bed was too soft and bed springs and frame made a noise!

Great little property as a base to explore from
Great decor and bathroom facilities, comfy beds and pillows. Well stocked kitchen with everything we needed.
Parking wasn't outside of property as expected but on the road.
Two of the bed frames were squeaky.
Run down pub next door put my wife on edge about security.

Perfect cottage for a group of 4.
Quirky little cottage on the edge of town. A little tricky to find at first but directions make sense once you’re clued in. Lovely big bathroom. Great living area.

Lovely stay, comfortable and all the amenities you could need
Lovely cottage and very helpful
I found it a bit tricky to find but not too bad. A little sign on the road side would really help.

Great value clean cottage with lovely interior design :)
Loved the style of the whole property and had everything you need. Lovely touches of milk and water included.
It was a bit difficult to find as it is not road side it is a footpath and parking was not as easy as hoped when advertised with parking.

We will be back again soon.
The property was exceptionally clean. Host Clare was responding superbly. Loved how comfortable it was with everything explained so well. It had that authentic cottage feel. It scored 10/10 👏👏👏
Whilst the bathroom was excellent, I needed a shelf or a unit near the sink to put my toiletries bag, glasses, mobile phone on. Really needed this shelf or a unit to rest these things on. I used the bath edges instead to rest these bits and pieces.

Beautiful property, great location.
The property really stood out for me, as lots of extra little touches. Milk pods in the fridge, ice cubes in the freezer, tea and coffee available etc. The kitchen is well equipped also. There is a beautiful bath which was great at the end of a cold wet summers day, there's also some toiletries should you forget anything. The bed in the main bedroom was extremely comfortable. Would use again and would recommend.
Nothing, all was ok.

Smelly, worn out cottage with very poor mattresses
The size was larger than expected for a cottage and more than ample for a family. The washing machine really helped as this was our accommodation after already being away from home for 5 days. The bath was really nice. The location to Carmarthen was pretty good so we could access a variety of restaurants if needed.
Pretty much everything else. Sadly, this was a very bad experience for us. Communication with the host was very good until the day of arrival. I confirmed the day before that I would be arriving 2pm-3pm (as the host had agreed we could check in 1 hour early) and I requested pre arrival information but we heard nothing. On the day of check in I still hadn't heard so I called the host twice - no answer. She then replied at 15.24 giving us the lock box code. The property itself is next to a run down pub and only accessible via a long, narrow pathway - parking is on the street not far away. At the time we checked in it was raining heavily so this wasn't ideal with a small child and a lot of luggage.
On walking in, the property smelled very musty and in certain places like a wet dog. The entire property is very worn and although it looked like there had been a surface clean, things like rugs and sofas clearly hadn't been cleaned in a long time, were stained quite badly and smelled terrible. The kitchen and upstairs are quite dark. The fridge smelled awful. The mattresses though clean are very poor quality - you can feel the springs and they sink. After the first night we looked for alternative accommodation however there was nothing suitable in the area within our price range. My partner slept on the floor in the double room on a camping mat we bought from Argos from the second night. We raised these issues with the host and asked for a partial refund which was refused as 'other people had stayed in the property and had no issues'. I replied challenging this and received no response at all. I then escalated it to Booking.com and provided pictures. They said that the host was still refusing to refund and issued us with £116 back to compensate us.
I don't think it is acceptable to pay £580 for 4 nights accommodation to not sleep and be faced with a horrible smell and dirty facilities.

Very good
Really cute cottage, lovely host, beautiful decor. Very homely.
Totally personal preference but I find double beds too small to share.

We were unable to stay at this property as access was too difficult
The location of keys was via a lockbox
The access to the property was away from the road and a 100m path needed to be traversed down from the road. Which meant our cases would need to be dragged down this path. This was not noted on the advert. My partner has mobility issues and we would not have chosen this cottage had we known.

Wonderful stay at Pondside Cottage 😊
Lovely quirky house. There was plenty of Tea Coffee, Milk when we arrived. A welcoming message to me and the family.
Clare's attention to detail,second to none
A really wonderful stay, will definitely come again.
The only issue was a musty smell and signs of having had a damp issue. Kept the windows wide open while we were there.
It did not spoil our stay.
Many Thanks Clare.
Nora Thomas & Family.
Musty smell as explained above.

A cute and well equipped cottage, with plenty of room.
There is no cooling. A couple of portable fans would have been perfect for sleeping in the hot weather.

Will definitely stay again!
The property was exactly what we wanted and needed, a comfortable, cosy and lovely home, it was close to local attractions and amenities, yet retained the quiet and cosy appeal we wanted.
The steam punk decor highlights, best bathroom on Booking.com! it was just cosy, felt like home.

Comfortable stay in well equipped property.
The property inside was well equipped and comfortable.
The steps down from the bedrooms and up to the bathroom were tricky for people with mobility issues. Grab rails would have helped.
A waste bin in the bathroom would be a good idea.
The pub alongside the property unfortunately gave us a first bad impression which is a shame because the house is perfectly fine.
9.0 / 10.0
Very pleasant. The town is very clean and tidy. Would recommend.
Plenty of room. Good location. Was concerned initially about on street parking but no problem whatsoever. A pub next door was no issue either. No noise.
Not the house for anyone with mobility issues due to the steps upstairs between the bedrooms and the bathroom.
