  We had a lovely time and were surprised at the huge size of the upstairs bedroom and bathroom. Having a full size walk-in "rain" shower that I (6ft 3in) could fit under easily was great. We wanted a small cottage with a log burnder, which felt isolated with nobody around, and got exactly that. It was still close enough to town to get food/supplies easily. The internet connection was terrible (no bandwidth and huge network jitter and packet loss), but I was told this is going to be fixed soon. I resolved the issue by going into town and getting a 4g dongle device with O2 that got me a very consistnt/stable 10 megabit connection when I left it in the corner by the front door. My partner was getting 30 megabit with O2 on her phone inside the building but we didnt want to use up her limited data. I was getting hardly anything with EE on my phone, but that may be because I have a cheap phone. Suffice to say, *if* the internet is still not fixed, I would recommend bringing/getting a 4g dongle if you need any sort of internet access. It is worth noting that the CCTV is only on the outside of the building and not inside so you shouldn't need to worry about privacy concerns. We will very likely come again, and have already recommended it to our friends/family.

  We stayed for 1 week over the may half term.

  Cobweb corner is a cute little cottage full of character and charm! Tony who owns it lives in the larger adjoining cottage door with his lovely dog Otto. Tony was so friendly and accommodating and was so good (as was otto) with our daughter. He is full of local knowledge, places to visit, pubs to eat at etc. Our daughter loved the attic play room and having a quiet hide away space to chill out in. Beds were comfy and we slept so well after long days on the beach. Full digital TV package to catch up on programmes or chill out with a film night. Never ran out of hot water with us all showering every night to get rid of the sand. There's no oven but a clean and easy to use air fryer, electric touch hob and microwave was fine to cook a variety of meals! A shop next door (expensive) but very useful for grabbing essentials or a bottle of wine and only a 10 minute stroll to the local beach which is beautiful. If there's anything you need just ask Tony and he'll help or point you in the right direction! We have previously stayed at Trecco bay caravan site (round the corner) but much preferred Cob Webb corner for a more chilled out and relaxed holiday away from the hustle and bustle of it all!!

  My husband and I had the most wonderful week at Crooked Hill Cottage!

  A tad tricky to locate (signage on turning to property could be enhanced) and was grateful we were still travelling in the daylight, having said that you are in the midst of the most idyllic countryside! We resorted to using the 3 little words app successfully! On arrival we were given a very warm welcome by Lin the owner who showed us around the most quaint, cosy (but spacious) and clean cottage we have ever stayed at! The generous welcome pack which included fresh eggs, chocs, wine - to name but a few items, was gratefully received. The beds were super comfy, and the added bonus of the hot tub was wonderful to ease those aches after a day out. We managed a few trips out, amongst them Laugharne which is not only a must for Dylan Thomas fans but it’s vista’s are incredible. The immediate area surrounding the cottage has plenty of lovely parks and trails to stretch one’s legs! All in all, a fabulous stay in a beautiful part of Wales and we will definitely return to this amazing cottage!!!

  This is our 2nd visit to Crooked Hill Cottage.

  We love it! Lin and Keith are such wonderful hosts. We were 2 adults with a dog for 7 night stay. Welcome pack including essentials, bread, milk, cheese, eggs and butter. Lovely treat of wine and welshcakes. All Welsh produce! Then the dog treats such a lovely touch. We would take the dog out for the majority of the day. Round the back of property there is a hot/cold water taps which makes showering the dog so easy! Then when coming back in the cottage the heating comes on at certain times of the day which was perfect for coming back after wintery cold walks. The hot tub is a great hit at the end of the day too to unwind and soak the sore muscles from walking. I could go on and on all day but to sum it up. The great thing about staying in Crooked Hill is that Lin and Keith have literally thought of everything you would need to make your stay here as comfortable as possible. Which makes you want to come back time and time again!

  Beautiful little cottage in a stunning part of the world (the pics don't do it justice).

  We had everything we needed for a relaxing and stress free week. The welcome pack (bottle of wine, bread, eggs, milk, Welsh tea cakes and dog treats) for us and our dog Buddy was greatly appreciated. We used the lovely comfortable bed (there are two double beds) on the first floor. It was very comfortable and the bedding smelled lovely and fresh. Due to it being February the log burner was very much appreciated and used every night, even though the cottage was warm throughout. It was the perfect place to walk the dog and visit other places of interest. There is also local shops and eateries nearby if needed. The icing on the cake was the hot tub, which we used throughout our stay and was the perfect way to relax at the end of the day. Lin and Keith are great hosts and were easily contactable if needed, but never intruded on our privacy. Thank you both for a great stay and we will definitely return. Rosetta and Andrew x
