"Had a lovely week staying at S33771. The decor is absolutely stunning - all done in accents of black, white, grey and silver with splashes of red in a couple of the bedrooms. Very tasteful and modern, yet in an old fashioned house.The kitchen was lovely - it had the same cooker as I have, so I knew what I was doing straight away! - but the instruction manuals were left for all of the household appliances, right down to the hairdryer in the ensuite!We found the garden a little bit difficult to get up to - the steps are very steep - so I maybe wouldn't recommend it for elderly people, small children or people with mobility problems, although the garden itself was lovely with a great view of Llansteffan. If you're not bothered about going in the garden though, don't let this put you off!Similarly, the spiral staircase up to the attic was a bit tricky to negotiate, but I suspect little kids would love it!The ensuite and the main bathroom were both gorgeous - there's a walk-in cubicle shower in the ensuite for anyone with mobility issues - and an over-bath shower in the bathroom. The house also has the nicest outside toilet I've ever seen!The lounge was very comfy with a nice big TV, and the wifi was phenomenal! (A massive bonus as we had no mobile signal on O2 in the whole village!)As we had a dog, we didn't eat out in the village a lot, but we did try Florrie's Fish 'n' Chips at the beach, and these were gorgeous and the staff were lovely, even giving us a partial refund because the cod they had were smaller than usual! The staff and customers were also lovely in the village shop, although it only stocks the basics. The nearest supermarket is about a fifteen minute drive away, although there's a Spar in nearby Johnstown. We did find the house a little bit chilly when we first arrived, but this could have been because no-one was staying in it the week before.All in all we had a lovely time at S33771. I would definitely recommend it."

"A beautifully renovated cottage - comfortable and well-equipped. We have stayed in a lot of holiday cottages and this has to be the most stylish! The owners have obviously put a lot of thought and care into the cottage and we were made very welcome by Huw. The property is on a steep bank, which may present difficulties for some guests. However, the view from the garden made negotiating the steep steps outside worthwhile and our 15 year old son found no problems with the spiral staircase inside to reach his generous bedroom in the very top of the house. Our teenagers were also impressed with the great wifi - no complaints there! The location was great for us - just a 5 minute walk to the beach and the local amenities, including a friendly pub serving good, reasonably priced food. Llansteffan is a lovely village with very friendly locals. There are beautiful walks and scenery and Carmarthen is within easy reach. We had a fabulous week at S33771 and look forward to returning soon."

"Family Easter holiday break. Wonderful location for a base to explore the Brecon Beacons. We were a party of seven adults, one teenager and three dogs. Plenty of space indoors and out, comfortable beds and a well equipped kitchen. Fridge and freezer in the kitchen were a bit on the small size for a party of eight, although there was another fridge and freezer in the garage. A slight problem with one of the showers whilst we were staying at the property (water leaking through to downstairs sitting room), but as there were four showers at the property this didn't prove to be too much of an inconvenience. The owner of the local community centre (next door to the cottage) was very welcoming and helpful, recommending local beauty spots and giving us the history of the village. The bedrooms were immaculate, some mould on sealants in bathrooms, living room and dining area very comfortable, kitchen not quite to the same standard in terms of cleanliness."

"lovely big apartment in great location.lovely views and walks.lack of information let it down.we were not told there was an allocated parking space and had warnings stuck on the car.only when i texted her did the owner mention it.we couldnt get the dishwasher to work (didnt appear to have water going in despite tap being turned on)rang the owner about that but she didnt get back to me.the cooker wouldnt turn off when we used it (we only cooked ready meals as the cooker was quite dirty)and had to turn it off at the wall and the fridge was on 24/7 with a huge block of ice in the back (that was my only real concern due to the risk of overheating)probably the appliances had bee in from new and were ready for replacement.also on the 3rd floor and no lifts.if these issues were addressed it would be as near perfect as you could get it."

"Clearview offers the perfect holiday for larger or extended families as it sleeps up to ten. As suggested by its name the views from the house are amazing and we're a joy to wake up to each morning. The house is fully stocked with any utensil you could wish should you choose to self cater or just chill seated outside with a coffee overlooking the sea. Our party consisted of 4 children under 10 and above 4 and they loved it, the short walk to the sea was great anabling the drivers a rest from the wheel although the walk back a little steep. Pendine sands has limited grocery shopping for the supermarket friend so the only downside, if that, supermarket were a short drive away. All in all our party would go again, lovely views, well equipped and beautiful house. Well recommended by us all."
