Overview
Property code: OC-E27710

Llansteffan is a village located on the coast of Carmarthenshire. It is situated on the eastern bank of the River Tywi estuary, across from Ferryside. The village is known for its picturesque scenery, with a castle that sits atop a hill overlooking the estuary and the surrounding countryside. A popular destination for tourists, particularly during the summer months where visitors can enjoy walks along the sandy beach which stretches for miles and where you can enjoy an ice cream or a bag of chips along the waterfront. The village itself has small shops and cafes, as well as a pub and a hotel and is set in a peaceful setting, perfect for those seeking a quiet getaway in a beautiful coastal area. For nature lovers a visit to the National Botanic Garden of Wales (17 miles) is a must and for culture vultures, nearby Laugharne (13 miles), which is renowned for the writings of its most famous resident, Dylan Thomas. (Please check admittance for the various attractions).

This is a light and airy space, which belies your expectations from the outside and has a contemporary decor throughout. The lounge has seating, TV and a warming wood burner for those cosy night’s after a day of exploration, with delightful estuary views. The lounge connects to the dining area, with table and chairs, it is a great spot to sit, chat and plan the day. The kitchen is well-equipped offering everything you may need during your stay. The master bedroom has a double bed and en-suite and provides a relaxed environment. There is a further double bedroom and two single bedrooms. Completing this floor is a family shower room with shower cubicle and WC.

We had a wonderful two weeks at the cottage, watching the tides come in and the birds feeding on the shore. We walked into the village most mornings for coffee or breakfast and had some fabulous meals at the Sticks. We also managed to get up to the castle and have fish and chips on the beach.

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.

Our stay at Eryl was lovely. Waking up to that view was picture perfect, and being able to step out of the door and go for a stroll on the beach, amazing.The owners went over and above to make sure it was a perfect holiday. We all came back fully rested, even the kids! We would definitely book again.

Wonderful Cottage/Chalet in an idyllic setting! The whole home was clean, modern and has everything you need to facilitate your stay next to the water. Everyone enjoyed tucking in to our welcome hamper, and the decoration and thoughtful touches around the place made it feel really homely for us (we stayed over Christmas).

Excellent place for a quiet retreat at any time of year. Walks were lovely, and the wood burner so cosy. Fantastic food in the village .
