About Great Welsh Escapes

We had a wonderful stay, the house was great and provided a comfy and cozy base to explore West Wales from.

Fabulous views across the bay. Very comfy house and perfect for us 6 people.

We had a fantastic stay at Wildhaven - the remote location was exactly the break we needed.
The house is as lovely as the pictures, well equipped and extremely peaceful.
The weather wasn’t great the week we stayed but it didn’t matter! We had one clear night and the blanket of stars in the sky was magical. The WiFi was good and phone reception ok. We’d recommend staying!

This apartment stunning and very well equipped, superb location.

We will stay again, it was lovely and relaxing.

Thank you

what an amazing house. it had everything we could have wished for. very private location with a beautiful hot tub. house was immaculate. we'll definitely return

Ideal place to spend a week with the family. The Cors has very impressive gardens and a peaceful location with uniquely styled rooms. An excellent location for walks , pubs, castle & Dylan's Boathouse.

The Cottage was really lovely, very spacious fabulous location overlooking the estuary. The gardens are secure for children and pets. Plenty of outside space. Laugharne is a lovely friendly peaceful place with lovely walks, nice pubs and cafes. Fully recommend

Stayed at The Cottage in Laugharne with family including little ones and had a fabulous time
Stunning views from the garden of a comfortable spacious house situated at the heart of the village
Kelly and staff at Great Welsh Escapes couldn’t have been more helpful

Lovely little place with very friendly surroundings. Great location close to Pendine beach.

Nothing. It was perfect for a family stay.

Beautiful setting in an ideal environment, just what we were looking for for the 4 nights stay, great escape from busy life, very relaxing few days with families. Thank you for the hosting!

this location is perfect for the live alone and I f anyone wants to gets relax and get peace this is the best place to go for.

Perfect for two. Well equipped, very clean, comfortable and modern. Well priced for our two night stay. We would love to stay again.

Beautiful place, inside and out! Friendly host, and lots to do, great got a family getaway, anytime of year! Will definitely stay again.

We loved our stay at the Boathouse, which was set in a quiet and beautiful location and within easy reach of most major attractions that we wanted to see (less than 30-45 mins away for pretty much everything). We had the pool to ourselves every time we used it, and it was great to be able to access it basically any time we wanted to. We had one minor issue with the water pressure one day but the hosts were great and fixed it in short order, so no complaints from us. We would definitely stay again next time we go to South Wales - rare find indeed.

We will be back definitely, it’s so clean and convenient to go attractions nearby

So warm and cosy and a total home from home experience! We made use of the board games Charlotte left out and went for walks in the private woodlands. The younger children loved the swings, the fairy doorway and the mud kitchen! Charlotte had left a beautiful tree and other Christmas decorations. We loved the big open living space which was ideal for having family visiting. They also loved the barn! We very much hope to return next year.

When you drive up, you certainly get the wow factor. This carries through to the home too. The helpful guide provided was great. Certainly recommend to friends and family. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Cors

Wonderful house, perfect for a large group. Comfortable and well equipped. Lovely town with lots to do and good places to eat

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is lovely and spacious. Well appointed and very clean.

We stayed at Sunny Bank over the school Easter holidays. Two adults and our children 6 and 3. Plenty of information was sent in advance making finding the accommodation easy. We arrived to find a beautiful hamper of Welsh products and a warm welcoming home. Sunny bank has all the amenities you could need plus the luxuries of gowns and towels for the hot tub. The home was immaculately clean and a perfect place to come back to after a day out exploring the Welsh countryside. Hazel and her family went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, from popping in to show us how to work the hot tub to messaging to help me find a doctor for my daughter. She really makes every effort to ensure you have a wonderful time. Sunnybank is so peaceful and quiet, and if you enjoy the hot tub in the evenings it's a great spot to stargaze in the clear unpolluted skies.

Large house,garden within 15 minutes to beaches and shops,
Amazing inglenook fireplace

The Boathouse is a super cottage with stunning surroundings, at the back of a farm, right by a gorgeous pond with ducks.
All the photos of the place, inside and outside, on the website, truly show how lovely this place is.
Highly recommended. 👍

Absolutely fantastic home. Great location for local attractions. So modern and comfortable. I am saving this joke for future holidays

Second time staying here and I don’t think I could ever get tired of the view , would stay again

Beautiful location, the gardens are stunning. The house itself is well presented and was clean and tidy and very welcoming .

My only suggestion is that a grab rail inside the annexe shower would be very helpful plus a non slip mat for the floor

Thanks

What a fantastic place to stay, the Barn is beautifully styled, clean and homely. The location is great for short car rides to the beach, woods and shops. Loved seeing all the animals wondering around, hosts were so welcoming and even gave a basket of home grown vegetables!
Loved it, would stay again!!

Very friendly owner. They had thought of everything, from shower gel to washing up liquid.
The comfiest bed I've ever slept in.
The perfect spot for unwinding and visiting the surrounding area. Stunning area with some fabulous nearby beaches.

Lovely rustic house, amazing fireplace. great large garden plenty of room for large family, the house is in a good location ,(car a must ), to be able to go to Lovely beaches, within 15 minute's drive . Pendine beach 25 minute's drive fantastic beach Nice pubs ,restaurants all within 15 minute's drive .

Lovely warm, modern top floor apartment. Tastefully decorated with little accessories, made it feel restful and peaceful. Beautiful view from the comfortable lounge window across the bay. The kitchen had every gadget you may want to use to cook or serve food. We used the fridge freezer, microwave and dishwasher.

Our navigation app took us to the wrong side of the main road, so we had to make contact for directions on arrival. Easy parking at the complex. Well sited in walking distance of the beaches and town centre.

Fantastic… just fantastic. Lovely quiet location with amazing views of countryside. The property is amazing, very spacious and the hot tub was the cherry on top. Lovely hosts who popped by to say hi and recommend a local beach. Can’t wait to visit again.

Gwalia House is beautifully furnished and had everything we needed for our stay. Laugharne is a fascinating village with a stunning castle, the Dylan Thomas museum, and the coastal path all on your doorstep. There are shops, pubs and places to eat within walking distance and great beaches a short drive away. Great Welsh Estates were so helpful and posted us some things we'd left behind. Highly recommended.

Fantastic holiday property, superb location, wonderful views of the estuary. Absolutely recommend

Wow, the most bautiful place and perfecto. I highly recomend this place for anyone who wants to explore South Wales. The Old School is bautiful inside and out. We cannot wait to back to the UK and stay here again. 5 stars

Would stay again. The Owner of the house (Ros) was extremely helpful! We had a few issues with the hot water going down, but Ros got someone out straight away the it was fixed with hours! She couldn't do enough for us, would love to stay again.

what didn’t I like would be easier to answer! the building is beautiful and very comfortable. the set up was perfect for my family especially with the mezzanine floor bedroom which gave my daughters the space they needed. it has everything we needed and more!

…the cold tap in the kitchen was a bit noisy, that’s all I can think of!

Great location with lots of history and very friendly people everywhere we went.
Highly recommended.

excellent for a get together with friends; lots of space; bar with pool table, dining room and cinema room; comfortable; good walks from the house

nothing

Beautiful cottage done up to a very high standard and had everything you need. Perfect location for exploring Wales.

Excellent location and stunning view. It was ideal for our family and enclosed garden was great for the dog.
Would highly recommend.
Communication with great welsh escapes was excellent too.
Thank you for a lovely place to stay. We had a lovely holiday 🥰

Thank you so much AWEL TAF, my kids are literally gutted we are leaving today, the most comfortable house, everywhere was sparkling, very neat and well arranged, oh the shower is absolutely great. The beddings wow very soft and nice. We will definitely come back. Thank you for the lovely cake and wine. Wow 👌 100percent /5stars. Bravo 👏

Great spacious property, with all mod cons required. Spotlessly clean and really comfortable beds. Walking distance to the beach, shops and cafes. Would definitely stay again.

We had a great long weekend at Maes-Y-Mel and loved the place, surroundings, and local produce the hosts provided. Will definitely consider coming back!

This was a beautiful home provided by lovely owners. It was clean, bright and there were delightful personal touches like wee chocolates for the kids, fresh eggs and honey plus a high hair and beds for the wee ones, complete with cuddly toys (which wasn’t expected!) I’d definitely stay there again. The owners had a cute doggie that was pals with our dog too. We were all sad to leave. Highly recommend the peaceful country stay.

We had a lovely stay in Pendine, the apartment was clean and well kept plus the view over the beach was amazing. Only 15 mins walk to the local amenities and 20min drive to Saundersfoot and 25 mins to Tenby. Would definitely recommend!

Property was ideal for our few days stay. Very clean, comfortable beds and lounge, large dining kitchen with nice garden area at the rear. Very central for the Castle, estuary and restaurants. Lots of choice of eateries and good quality too. Parking at the property was a challenge as it was on one side of street which was busy, so had to park in the square - a 5 min walk away but free. Made it a bit tense when arriving and departing for loading/unloading car. Laugharne is definitely worth a visit, the views over the estuary are beautiful.

Great location. Apartment was lovely everything thing you needed under one roof it was like home from home.will go back soon.

Everything was perfect, fully stocked kitchen even down to tea coffee and sugar plus a welcome hamper! the games room was a great addition perfect for the kids! ..and us 😆. Hot tub was brilliant! would love to go back again!!

Had a lovely stay at the apartment, location was great.. accommodation was super, clean, stylish and had everything we needed. The host kept in contact with us to check everything was ok.. really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend. 5 stars 🌟

A very nice comfy house, clean with nice bedding and comfortable beds.
My only criticism is that there is no handrail on the upper part of the stairs. My husband and I are in our 70’s and we need a rail to hold on to.

Perfect location and very spacious apartment! The large living room and views are amazing.
We were lucky to be there during a heatwave so spent most of our time on the beaches. We left the car at the multi-storey car park for the whole week as everything you need is in walking distance. Car park only cost £30 for the week.
Kids were happy with the beach toys on offer at the accommodation to play with.
Beds were very comfortable and the shower was great.
Would definitely stay here again!

Really nice accommodation with a big spacious kitchen. Really good location :)

Great House
What an Amazing house - there really aren’t enough superlatives to describe it .Every room was a delight & we revelled in staying in such grandeur . We had an absolutely wonderful time & the pool was an extra bonus. . Great comms & Michelle was very helpful. We have already booked a return trip.

We had the most amazing time.

We walked for hours around the house and barely saw a soul.

It was the most special break for my partners 30th!

It was a lovely house, very clean and spacious with great facilities and in a great location

Absolutely top notch. Gwalia House was perfect, home from home with far more than you would expect with a holiday let. Laugharne was fab with lots to do in and around the area. Can't recommend this place enough, thank you for making g our holiday perfect

We all very much enjoyed our stay, the view from the balcony was amazing, very clean and a well equipped kitchen

It's a beautiful house in a great location overlooking the town. We had plenty of space and everything we needed as a group of five adults and two kids. We would be happy to stay there again.

Absolutely stunning location, so peaceful and secluded! Gorgeously relaxing, just everything you’d need for a holiday break!

Wonderful week at Maes y Mel. GWE were well organised and efficient, checking if we'd arrived safely, later if we were settling in, and later in the week before leaving. Our hostess, Buddig was friendly and helpful. The accommodation was quiet, comfortable and set in rural bliss. Highly recommended!!

Stayed at Lloret in Laugharne for a mid week break. The property was spotlessly clean with great views over Castle and estuary. Hot tub was a real bonus. Faultless service from all at Great Welsh Escapes - helpful texts and information. Would definitely stay with them again. Thanks!

Stayed at the Lloret property for 4 days over Christmas. Exceeded our expectations. GWE communicated well throughout and were keen to do all they could to ensure that we had a good experience. All the facilities at the property were in excellent condition. Beds very comfortable. Lovely views. Couldn’t fault it. Highly recommended.

The spacious home had everything we needed! The hot tub especially was my favourite part.

Nothing! It was a great stay!

We loved our stay at Beudy at Pentrecelyn. The accomodations were comfortable and so beautiful. The barn has been renovated to a very high standard and is immaculate. The owners of the property, Colin and Nia, were very friendly and so helpful - we greatly appreciated the ride to the railway station. The farm is beautiful and private, but is a nice walk to town for shopping and dinner. We woud definitely stay here again.

A lovely, modern cottage right in the heart of Laugharne, Chapel View is a good size for two, with a patio garden that is a real sun trap in the morning. Luckily we had great weather so didn’t spend that much time indoors but for those not so fortunate the cottage is a very nice place to be. Easy to book through Great Welsh Escapes who provide plenty of support and who attended to a minor issue we had speedily and efficiently.

Had a super stay at the Barn and Chaffhouse in Castlemartin. It was ideally located for glorious beaches and scenery. Very well appointed and great hosts. Would recommend a stay here anytime.

Absolutely outstanding stay.
From the team at great escapes to Hazel who was just lovely really nice and warm person who made us feel so welcome.
The Home was just lovely loads of space we were gutted to leave
The hot tub just sprinkled the extra gold dust on our stay.

Loved our stay at Coedllys Cottage. The hydra pool and sauna were especially great -perfect for relaxing after a day exploring. The cottage was clean, comfortable, and set in a peaceful spot with great access to the coast. A wonderful break and highly recommended.

Rustig gelegen, fantastisch uitzicht, goede faciliteiten, smaakvol, hartelijk welkom. Centraal gelegen ten opzichte van veel bezienswaardigheden.

Helemaal niets.

The boathouse is a lovely little escape with complete peace, along with being close to local towns and beaches. The place is as described and as you see in the photos. The private pool and sauna is such a nice addition too, which our son loved. Our dogs were so excited by the lake and cows, and wanted to always been outside in the enclosed area.
Great Welsh Escapes sent through clear instructions before hand, and proactively messaged me on day 1 to ensure I had everything I needed. This was a nice touch!
Richard, the owner and farmer, was super welcoming and made an effort to come out when we arrived to show us around personally. When we had a small issue I text Richard and he walked down almost immediately to help. He also spent a little while answering all my silly questions about dairy farming and his cows!!
We certainly plan to go back in the future and stay again :)

Welcome basket was great, all the thoughtful little touches made this property just wonderful. Peaceful location and every amenity you could want or need!

Lovely interior with plenty of space and lots of helpful and thoughtful touches which made self catering much easier. Great location to explore South Wales

Everything we could ask for and more, absolutely lovely place and such friendly hosts. Thank you.

We loved staying in this beautiful home with a mesmerizing view. Sparkling clean, comfortable beds and everything you might need. We hope to come back.

We had a wonderful time staying here. It is in a great location to explore this part of Wales. There is so much to see and do. The accomodation was clean and comfortable and had everything you need for a relaxing stay.

Great showers and comfy beds. Spacious space and we enjoyed the out door space. Lovely to see the horses in the field in the morning.

We also had a great meal in the hotel next door.

The team at Great Welsh Escapes were - Great! Super helpful, friendly and efficient - thank you!

Fantastic place to stay! Great amenities in the house and so much for kids which was amazing! Great host and beautiful surroundings! Highly recommend for a family stay!

Absolutely beautiful cottage with everything you could need. We were the first guests to stay there and we absolutely loved it. We loved the garden and the horses in the field behind. The bed in the back room is the most comfortable bed we have ever slept on. We are already looking to book our next two breaks. The welcome pack was a really nice touch as well. Chocolate wine and even treats for the dog it was so kind. Thank you for making our break perfect.

Many thanks for a lovely holiday, great place to stay. Pretty and very quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. Large rooms, comfortable and soon warm when the heating was turned on briefly. Would recommend to family and friends

A lovely cottage nestled around farm lands all around. we had a great time away from the usual hustle. Having exclusive access to the pool was a bonus for our stay. Certainly worth the money!

Was a last minute book. Great porty. Communication was good and easy instructions!

Lovely property and location. Great friendly host, had everything we could wish for. Would definitely stay again

Location was perfect. Ideal for a weekend get away with the family, Plenty of room.

Lovely cottage with everything provided and very well equipped. Excellent communications too.

clean, well equipped, lots of contact from owner to check in on us which was great

nothing!

A beautiful place to stay. Lovely accommodation (warm, lots of room, lovely bedroom, very clean and well kitted out). Would recommend, and would happily stay here again.

Extremely well presented, thoughtfully set up with plenty of resources… the style and quality of this apartment made it feel like a real home from home - the best Booking.com residence we have stayed out to date… by far!

Fantastic location, property and good value. Even the weather behaved itself!

We have had the most amazing time at Cliff Haven for my daughters Birthday. The view is breathtaking, the property has everything we needed. We are sad to leave & will definitely book again! 5*. Thank you! X

This property is at the top of a hill with a gorgeous view of the countryside. There is an outdoor garden area with a lawn that was perfect for our grandson to run and explore. The unit is spacious with all you need to cook, wash clothes, and relax. This was our favorite place to stay during our holiday.

This did not bother us, but there are no shops or restaurants in the village. You need to make a short drive to nearby villages for supplies.

It was such a pleasure to stay at this cottage in gorgeous Laugharne. The cottage is recently renovated and was fresh, clean and comfortable throughout. And the cottage has a great view of the castle. Great Welsh Escapes were excellent - very easy to communicate with and helpful. We had a lovely stay.

Setting, comfort, decor, memorable touches (books, games, nightlight) particularly for the children, kindness of the owners, inclusion of key supplies in the kitchen and bathroom, clarity of information and communications, lack of road noise.

There was nothing we did not like.

The bungalow is in a beautiful location with stunning views of Laugharne. We had everything we needed for a very comfortable short break. The bungalow was immaculate inside and the addition of a hot tub was a real luxury.
We met the owner who was extremely helpful and friendly. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

Our second stay in Round Park and we will definitely be back again! Everything we needed for 8 of plus dog. Having the annex too, was great! Thanks Michelle, Jac and all the Great Welsh Escapes team.😃

This house deserves its name ‘Great House’.
Every room is spacious … and there are a lot of them over 4 floors! Special mention for the magnificent bathrooms!
Rooms full of furniture, splendid paintings and impressive pottery on display.
As for the basics: the house was spotlessly clean, gas central heating is very effective (plus a log fire), the huge beds are very comfortable and the kitchen comes well equipped.

A lovely, spacious property which had everything we needed and more. Fantastic location close to castle, shops and pubs. Great communication throughout. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful stay. So many special touches. So clean, comfy and cozy. Extremely well equipped accommodation. Didn’t want to leave!

Amazing apartment in one of the best locations!
The only negative point was the kitchen breakfast table didn’t really sit 4 comfortably and thought a dining table in the very large living room would have been nice. Other than that we had the best week and would definitely recommend to others. 5*

We enjoyed our short stay at Sunnybank. The accommodation is very homely & has everything you could need. Lovely hamper & card was left for our arrival 🥰 so thoughtful! Very friendly host & fabulous hot tub with views. We loved an evening soak - stargazing 🌟🤩

The accommodation was as described in the listing. Spacious and comfortable with every amenity. In an excellent location for a peaceful stay and easy access to all the surrounding areas and the holiday destinations farther afield.

Peace and quiet no light pollution ideal break away from normal hectic life
Heated indoor swimming pool and sauna for our own personal use lakeside views with ducks looking out for you everything you would want to hand including WiFi fully equipped kitchen

Having to come home

Stayed at The Cottage in Laugharne with family including little ones and had a fabulous time
Stunning views from the garden of a comfortable spacious house situated at the heart of the village
Kelly and staff at Great Welsh Escapes couldn’t have been more helpful

myself man Mt family loved everything about the house. and our stay. to have pool at our disposal was fantastic. I would encourage anyone wanting to visit the area to stay at this property.great welsh escapes were extremely helpful on the rare occasions I had to make contact with them. thank you for your assistance in making my family break memorable.

Communication was excellent, hosts were on hand and always helpful. Easy journey there, 4 hours from London. Great local trips to llansteffan, laugharne, pending.

Amazing huge house. Had a great time with all the family, rooms large enough for us all to sit together and the house was large enough for us all to have space. Kids and I really enjoyed the pool.

A perfect place to stay over Christmas with two toddlers and a dog.
The Boathouse was exactly as described and decorated for Christmas when we arrived.
The pool was bigger than expected but perfect to use each day for kids working on their swimming and water confidence.
The host, Richard, was always available, friendly and chatty with the kids when they showed an interest in the animals.

Beautiful barn lovely fitted out with a well received welcome pack, good communication from owner.

Amazing huge house. Had a great time with all the family, rooms large enough for us all to sit together and the house was large enough for us all to have space. Kids and I really enjoyed the pool.

I stayed at the syr ar y bryn with my partner and 2 daughters for a short break for my partners birthday.
The property was very cosy and well equipped. We had a great time and would definitely recommend!
Everyone were very helpful and very friendly.

Very comfortable property in a great location to enjoy all the amenities of Laugharne and explore both Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire.
Spotlessly clean and very well equipped.

Fantastic house. So tranquil. The house was spotless and stocked with everything we needed. Hot tub was amazing

The accommodation was great and it was a lovely touch to have a bottle of wine waiting in the fridge - thank you.
Parking outside was easy and the location was good walking distance to the small quiet town and castle.
A lovely place to spend a few days away from the hustle and bustle.
Would definitely recommend!

Having just returned home from a 3 night stay at Footprints apartment in Saundersfoot, we would highly recommend this to anyone. It was 5 star rating, beautifully presented, spotlessly clean and easy walking distance to the town and harbour. We are looking forward to staying there again in the foreseeable future.
A home from home indeed.

Well what can I say! This accommodation went above and beyond our expectations completely, it is an absolutely stunning property equipped with everything you need to enjoy your holiday! It is also completely disabled friendly which is a lovely touch of inclusivity. We would 100% recommend this accommodation to anyone looking to stay in the area. The owners are such kind people also ( The hamper your greeted with is a beautiful touch also ). Super comfy seating areas and beds, lots of cupboards and wardrobes for storing your holiday essentials and the kitchen is completely fully equipped with everything you could possibly need! Our kids LOVED this holiday aswell as me and my husband, we can't say thankyou enough honestly! 5 stars from us 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Kind regards
Jodie Meredith and family

We had a great stay at this lovely holiday bungalow. Well thought out space, clean and perfectly located for all that Laugharne (& beyond) has to offer. Thanks to Great Welsh Escapes for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful house and gardens, with fabulous views. The house has everything you need and there is everything you could need in the kitchen to cook with and clean up. We even did a roast dinner! The hot tub was lovely and clean. House was spotless. Good quality beds, bedding, towels etc. The host was very responsive to questions and even accommodated an early check-in to allow for a Tesco delivery. Highly recommend this place.

Perfect cottage in a very secluded location. Host was fantastic, recommended lots of places to go and was really helpful throughout our stay. The private pool was really great but it was the location that was really special so many great places to go. House is perfect for four plus a dog with everything you could possibly need. Was great having our own garden and having access to a big field too. Definitely need ten days next time, too much to see in seven!

Lovely property, suited our stay of four adults perfectly.
One of our guests is around 6 3" and found himself hitting the light fittings as they are all quite low hanging!!
It was very cosy for an autumn break.

Beautiful and peaceful getaway, nice walk down to the beach. We enjoyed our stay!

Lovely house in a great village. Good local walks and places to eat in easy walking distance.

Excellent location, very quiet and remote, ideal for our Christmas break. The barn was perfect for our stay, with plenty of space and well suited for 4 people. A friendly welcome at the security gate, and a thoroughly pleasent stay throughout. Would highly recommend.

I recently stayed at Frogmore in Laughne and had a fantastic experience. The rental was located in a beautiful area , including a great view of the nearby castle. The property itself was clean, spacious, and well-appointed with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. It was also a very last minute booking and the contact at Great welsh escapes was incredibly helpful at accommodating us.

One thing I particularly appreciated was the attention to detail in the décor and furnishings. It was clear that the owners had put a lot of thought into creating a warm and inviting space that felt like a home away from home.

Overall, I would highly recommend this vacation rental to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway . The location, amenities, and attention to detail made it a truly memorable stay.
