About this property
The Old Vicarage is a truly stunning Grade II listed home, rich in character and charm, perfectly positioned in the coastal town of Laugharne on the beautiful Carmarthen Bay. Thoughtfully restored to retain its period features, this elegant property blends historic touches with stylish comfort to create a warm and inviting retreat for families and friends.
On arrival, you’ll find ample off-road parking before stepping into the spacious interior. Inside, there’s plenty of room to relax and unwind, with both a cosy snug and a welcoming sitting room, each complete with a woodburning stove – perfect for settling in after a day of exploring.
The contemporary kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook up memorable meals, while a separate dining room, also with a woodburning stove, provides a lovely setting to gather together. A handy utility room and cloakroom add extra convenience to your stay.
For a bit of fun, head down to the lower ground floor where you’ll discover a fantastic games room with a TV and a large, stylish sofa – the ideal spot for movie nights or relaxed evenings in.
Outside, the garden is just as impressive, with mature shrubs, a patio area for al fresco dining, and a luxurious hot tub where you can unwind and soak under the stars.
Upstairs, five beautifully styled bedrooms offer comfort and flexibility for all guests. On the first floor, there are two king-size rooms with en-suites, along with a further king-size room with its own separate bathroom. The second floor offers another king-size bedroom and a bunk room, both with en-suite facilities, making it perfect for families or mixed groups.
From The Old Vicarage, you can enjoy a gentle stroll into Laugharne to explore its historic castle, wander along the Taf Estuary, or visit the famous Boathouse and writing shed once used by Dylan Thomas. A short drive takes you to Pendine’s vast sandy beach, ideal for traditional seaside days, while the vibrant coastal towns of Tenby and Saundersfoot offer colourful harbours, boat trips, and plenty to see and do for all ages.
Whether you’re seeking relaxation, coastal adventure, or quality time together, The Old Vicarage offers a truly memorable base for your Welsh escape.
Laugharne, with its majestic castle standing on a low ridge overlooking the wide Taf River Estuary, is famous for its associations with the poet Dylan Thomas, and a visit to his Boat House and the writing shed where he wrote most of his works is a wonderful experience. Beautiful walks in and around the castle, with breathtaking views of the estuary, can be followed by cream teas in quaint little tea rooms, a drink in the local pub or shopping in the gift shops and mini market. The nearby sandy beach at Pendine is where many land speed records have been famously set on its seven mile stretch of beautiful flat sand, and a little further afield are the seaside resorts of Tenby and Saundersfoot. With walks in all directions, great days out at castles, mills and craft centres galore, this is a perfect base for all the family, at any time of the year.
