When the evening draws to a close choose between five beautifully-appointed bedrooms; a double completes the ground floor and two doubles and two singles are housed on the first. In the morning freshen up in the gorgeous bathroom, which is home to a deep, roll-top bathtub with picture-perfect views out to the hills for a real slice of heaven while you soak, or alternatively the ground-floor shower room, before embarking on your adventures. When you’re ready to explore, Laugharne is a must visit as it was once the hometown of famous poet Dylan Thomas.
