Ty Crydd is a beautifully modernised two-bedroom character cottage in Llansaint, a quiet village in Carmarthenshire, South Wales. Guests consistently describe it as surprisingly spacious inside one reviewer called it "like a Tardis." Finished to a high standard with exposed beams and an electric flame-effect stove at the heart of the sitting room, it feels warm and welcoming from the moment you arrive. Note: this property does not have a hot tub.

Llansaint sits just minutes from the South Wales coastline. Kidwelly Castle, Pembrey Country Park and Cefn Sidan Beach are all within easy reach. The enclosed rear garden is a genuine sun trap fully fenced and perfect for dogs with a patio, lawn and outdoor furniture for eating outside.

The cottage sleeps four across two bedrooms. Upstairs is a sumptuous king-size bedroom with an ensuite walk-in shower. Downstairs is a twin bedroom with its own ground-floor shower room ideal for guests with limited mobility.

Kidwelly Castle (2 miles, 5 mins), Pembrey Country Park (4 miles, 8 mins), Cefn Sidan Beach (5 miles, 10 mins) and Tenby (25 miles, 40 mins) are all within striking distance.

Ty Crydd suits couples, small families and dog owners who want a clean, well-equipped base for exploring South Wales. Owners Cled and Linda live next door and guests rate them highly.
