For a well-earned break to West Wales, this pretty and cosy holiday cottage has been thoughtfully designed to ensure you have everything you need, including the indulgence of a hot tub for evening relaxation. Bursting with charm and sophisticated interiors, itâ€™s a delightful place for a family getaway. The blissful beaches along the coast are within easy reach, with Pendine Sands just 7 miles away boasting a long sandy shore, ideal for invigorating walks at all times of the day. The stylish living room sits at the heart of this holiday home, furnished with a stylish corner sofa that ensures plenty of space for all the family to sprawl out. Bursting with character, the room encourages guests to kick back and relax, warmed by the crackling wood burner. Next door, the light, bright open-plan kitchen/diner is a great place to gather, with a quirky, country style kitchen in neutral tones and natural wood. The four-seater dining table is the perfect place to tuck into a home-cooked feast, and when the sun is shining, you can throw open the patio doors to let the outside in. All on one floor, down the hall youâ€™ll find the two spa-like bedrooms where youâ€™re sure to get a good nightâ€™s rest. Bedroom one features a generous king-size bed whilst bedroom two is a stylish twin, suitable for both adults and children. Outside, the garden is spacious with a decked area for entertaining, as well as a lawn for children to run and play. The main feature of the garden however is the private hot tub, sat beneath a pergola and providing a great place to sit and watch the stars. Take a tour of the coast and visit the quintessential hotspots of Saundersfoot (15 miles) and Tenby (17 miles). Whether youâ€™re looking for an active adventure walking between the two on the coast path, or for more of a leisurely day spent building sandcastles and snacking on delicious local treats, both locations have a lot to offer. Those travelling with children will love a trip to Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (13 miles), where youâ€™ll get the chance to meet an array of exotic and farmyard animals, get active in the play parks and dig into a treat in the cafe.

Carmarthen Guide

Carmarthen's hot tub cottages offer a perfect Welsh getaway with the added luxury of private bubbling waters. This historic market town, the oldest in Wales, balances rural charm with modern amenities.

Visitors can explore nearby Carmarthen Castle ruins, the National Botanic Garden of Wales (4.5/5 on TripAdvisor) and beautiful Pembrokeshire beaches just 30 minutes away. The town's Roman amphitheatre remains are among the best preserved in Britain.

Merlin the wizard was supposedly born in Carmarthen - the town's Welsh name 'Caerfyrddin' is linked to his legend. The oak tree called 'Merlin's Oak' stood in town until 1978.

Accommodation ranges from cosy one-bedroom cottages perfect for couples to large farmhouses accommodating 12+ guests. Many properties offer enclosed gardens, woodburners and countryside views alongside those all-important hot tubs.

Sightseeing

Carmarthen offers plenty to see between hot tub sessions. The town itself has Wales' oldest shopping street (King Street) with independent shops and the covered market dating back to 1846.

Carmarthen Castle (SA31 1JP) might be partially ruined but its remaining tower and gatehouse are worth exploring. Open daily during daylight hours with free entry.

The National Botanic Garden of Wales (SA32 8HN) sits just 15 minutes east. It houses the world's largest single-span glasshouse and stunning themed gardens. Open 10am-6pm summer, 10am-4pm winter. TripAdvisor score: 4.5/5.

Laugharne Castle (SA33 4SD) is 12 miles away. This medieval fortress overlooks the estuary where Dylan Thomas found inspiration. Open daily 10am-4pm, TripAdvisor: 4/5.

Pet Friendly

Many Carmarthen hot tub cottages welcome dogs, often with enclosed gardens. I've found the locals are generally dog-positive too.

Brechfa Forest (SA32 7RA) offers miles of woodland trails perfect for walkies. The paths range from easy 1-mile loops to challenging 18km routes.

Pendine Sands allows dogs year-round on certain sections of its 7-mile beach. The firm sand makes for excellent running space at low tide.

For eating out, The Warren in Carmarthen (SA31 1QD) has a dog-friendly beer garden, while Florentino's (SA31 3AQ) welcomes well-behaved dogs in their outdoor seating area.

Pack towels specifically for your dog - essential after muddy walks or beach trips before heading back to your cottage.

Top 3 attractions you have to see in Carmarthen

Carmarthenshire County Museum (SA32 8HG) housed in a former bishop's palace is fascinating. The building itself dates to medieval times with later Tudor additions. Inside you'll find exhibits covering 50,000 years of local history, from prehistoric tools to Roman gold. The museum also houses the last remaining piece of 'Merlin's Oak'. Open Tuesday-Saturday 10am-4pm. One visitor called it "a hidden gem with friendly staff who really know their stuff."

Dylan Thomas Boathouse (SA33 4SD) sits in nearby Laugharne where the famous poet spent his final years. The boathouse offers stunning estuary views that inspired his work, particularly "Under Milk Wood." The small museum includes his writing shed preserved as it was. Open daily 10am-5pm March-October. TripAdvisor score: 4.5/5. A recent visitor wrote: "Standing in his tiny writing shed gave me goosebumps."

Gwili Steam Railway (SA33 6PZ) runs vintage trains along a preserved section of the former Carmarthen-Aberystwyth line. The 4-mile round trip follows the River Gwili through lovely countryside. They run special events throughout the year including dining trains. Open weekends and school holidays, first train usually 10:30am. TripAdvisor: 4/5. One family commented: "Our kids were thrilled to ride a real steam train and the volunteers were brilliant at explaining how everything works."

What's the best time to visit Carmarthen?

Summer offers the most reliable weather for enjoying your hot tub and outdoor activities. However, spring (April-May) brings beautiful wildflowers and fewer tourists. The Carmarthen River Festival in July and the Carmarthen County Show in August are worth planning around if you enjoy local events.

How far is Carmarthen from the coast?

Carmarthen sits about 11 miles from the nearest beaches. Llansteffan beach is closest (20 minute drive), while the spectacular Pembrokeshire coast is about 30-40 minutes away by car.

Is Carmarthen good for shopping?

Yes! Carmarthen has Wales' oldest shopping street (King Street) plus St Catherine's Walk shopping centre with major retailers. The 800-year-old market runs Wednesday-Saturday selling local produce, crafts and antiques.

Where can I park in Carmarthen town centre?

Several car parks serve the town centre including St Peter's (SA31 1QY, £1.50/hour), John Street (SA31 1QN, £1/hour) and the cheaper long-stay at Priory Street (SA31 1NN, £2.20 all day).

Are there any good walks near Carmarthen?

Brechfa Forest offers excellent marked trails. The Carmarthenshire section of the Wales Coast Path provides stunning sea views. For something gentler, try the riverside walk from Carmarthen to Johnstown along the Towy.

Where's good to eat in Carmarthen?

The Warren (SA31 1QD) serves excellent Welsh produce. Y Polyn (SA32 8NT) is worth the 15-minute drive for award-winning Sunday lunches. For casual dining, Florentino's (SA31 3AQ) offers great Italian food.
