Swn y mor had everything you needed and more, Anthony and Andrea have done a fantastic job setting up this house into a fabulous holiday home.The house was very clean and tidy on arrival with a nice welcome pack, which was very much appreciated.The kitchen is very modern and has many gadgets.The house has very comfortable beds and is very peaceful.Our dog Jess loved the huge very secure garden and could play for ages with no fear of her being able to get out.The great thing it's perfect for dogs, just at the bottom of the road is a wonderful beach,and on the other side is a big park land which is also dog friendly. The town of Burry port has everything you need,a good supermarket and nice shops, plenty of takeaways to suit every taste, best of all try out the Portobello pub you won't believe the prices,there is also a very good train station with a very good service and also many buses,so you can get around without using the car.We were very lucky coming in November we had a fantastic time with beautiful weather. All in all a fantastic house and place for a great holiday,only one small fault could do with a calender in the kitchen very handy when cooking pasta and rice. We had a great holiday and would highly recommend Swn y mor to family and friends and we are already planning to come again. Thank you again Anthony and Andrea.

Garden was totally secure and perfect for our dog and took away the stress of worrying that he might get out. Location couldn't be more perfect!! Only one tiny thing I would recommend would be a rubber shower mat in the bath we had my mother in law who is in her 80s but very agile with us and had to buy one to make sure she was safe and didnt slip. Cant wait to come back and stay again!! Thank you so much
