Springer Cottage is a spacious mid terraced holiday cottage situated in the village of Llansteffan, which itself is nestled between the Towy Estuary with its glorious sandy beach and the rolling Welsh countryside. French doors extend the living space into a fully enclosed, landscaped rear garden which benefits from a sun trap patio area and a back gate leading to the beach and the village itself. Inside, facilities such as a dishwasher and pet room/utility room, along with an abundance of soft furnishings, make Springer Cottage a haven of comfort and convenience.
A superb base for exploring the sensational counties of Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire. Just a 300 metre amble from the back gate takes you to the centre of the village with its pub and shop. The Norman Castle dominates the headland above its sandy beach, 12th century church and ancient streets, this place often feels suspended in time and is widely regarded as Wales’s best kept secret! With fantastic views across the Towy Estuary to the village of Ferryside, Llansteffan boasts a foodie pub, cafe and a fine restaurant; plenty of choice for re fuelling following coastal walks around the headland of Wharley Point to take in the sensational views of the Taf Estuary and Laugharne: Those in search of further gastronomic adventure must head for Laugharne: Once home to the Welsh writer, Dylan Thomas, it’s now home to numerous restaurants, pubs, cafes and galleries. Enjoy a a lunch time snack alongside the water at The Boat House Cafe, also part museum; this place was the last home of the much loved writer. Or feast on fine, locally sourced produce at Seaview, a splendid restaurant within what was once his first marital home in the town. With regular family friendly activities taking place at its magnificent medieval castle, Laugharne is a place you’ll want to visit time and time again. The county town of Carmarthen lies just 8 miles from Springer Cottage and offers plenty of shops, pubs, restaurants, galleries, cinema etc. The town lays claim to being the oldest in Wales and originates from AD75. A roman amphitheatre remains in the town, one of only 7 in the UK. Legend has it that Carmarthen was the home of Merlin, the wizard of Arthurian folklore; something lauded annually at a summer festival celebrating all things myth and magical at Carmarthen Park. The Angel Vaults Restaurant provides a great venue for lunches or evening meals for those exploring this intriguing county town. Whether returning from the ’Go Ape’ adventures at Pembrey Country Park, pony trekking across stunning beaches or a boat trip out of Tenby to the serenity of Caldey Island, you can’t fail to appreciate the comfort and convenience of Springer Cottage. With easy access to so much, including both golf and watersports within five miles, yet tucked away from the bustling tourist trail, this cottage provides the perfect place for whatever holiday you wish to create. Beach 1.5 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 330 yards.

What a beautiful place this is to visit. We had such a wonderful holiday from the lovely springer cottage, how comfortable and clean the space is with so many special touches thought about from the owner (even a dog tag for our pooch, in case he got lost!), to the stunning beach, woodland walks and castle. the village is small with one village shop a couple of pubs (lovely food) and some beach amenities like a fish and chip shop and ice-cream van. Its peaceful and tranquil. it was always a pleasure to come back to the cottage to settle down, plenty of space, lovely enclosed garden and the owners who live just around the corner were so helpful and friendly. We would come again. There is plenty to see and do from castles, car boots, beaches, harbours, fossil hunting, museums, shopping, eating out.

Lovely property very close to the beach. There were 4 adults, 2 children and 3 dogs in our party and the property was spacious enough to accommodate us all. It’s very well equipped for the comfort of both people and pets. Everything was beautifully clean and well maintained. Owner and caretaker were very friendly and helpful for any information we needed. There is a local shop in walking distance for essential items, but the opening times are limited so we went to the Tesco extra in Carmarthen, about 7 miles away. Florries fish bar is close to the beach but that has variable opening times too.

Clean and comfortable, easy reach of the village shop and pub. Although the details say the beach is a mile and a half away, it seemed much closer than that, literally across the small car park at the end of the road. We had a good time and we're impressed with how dog friendly the house is. Our greyhound hates hard floors but was absolutely fine with the kitchen area, which seemed to be non-slip.
