Amazing cottage we stayed here for 7nights. The cottage has everything you could need log burner and hot tub are also amazing! Bed was also very comfortable and kitchen has everything you could need! Very thoughtful welcome back also which was great fully received Even some treats for the dog ! Even though the owners are just next door the cottage feels very private however they are right there if you have any queries! We took our border collie and the garden was secure for him to roam whilst we enjoyed a relax in the hot tub! Would highly recommend this cottage feels very secluded however only a short drive to Tesco and local shops. We had lovely days out in Tenby, Saundersfoot, burry port llanstefan and ferry side. The only downside was having to come home! We will Definately be returning to this beautiful little cottage.

Christine

Crooked cottage is the perfect place to explore South Wales you can easily reach lovely beaches, beautiful countryside, waterfalls, rivers and hills. We had a great time with our dog and we were made to feel very welcome and we definitely felt at home for our week. The cottage is amazing with everything you would need, it was clean and bedding smelled lovely. The log burner and hot tub just topped it off and we even had a sprinkling of snow. So much more we want to explore I will definitely book again. Thank you

Perfect cottage stay away, really felt like home, my diabetic almost blind dog was settled in straight away and the amount of safety gates around was brilliant, I even though your living attached to the owners property privacy is 100! Bet it is beautiful during summer time!

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 hotcold 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!

Rosetta

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

Ashley

We have just returned from a lovely holiday at Crooked Hill Cottage. We are a family with two young children and a puppy. The cottage had everything we needed and was just gorgeous. All the furnishings are high quality, the beds are the comfiest I've ever slept in and the hot tub was fantastic

The cottage was georgous had everything we needed and more. The surrounding area was so beautiful too. We had a lovely time although the weather could have been kinder we still enjoyed our stay. Would highly recommend

We had a wonderful stay at Crooked Hill Cottage, and it was a lovely surprise to see the cottage had been decorated for Christmas. The cottage is really well equipped, the beds are luxuriously comfortable and the hot tub and log burner are a real treat! The owners live next door and are so friendly and welcoming without being intrusive. It's also nice that the cottage feels so private due to the position of the garden and hot tub, you are not overlooked at all. The garden is secure for dogs, although there is a stone wall with a long drop down to a stream, so we did have to watch that they weren't going to do anything daft! This is the best cottage we've stayed in, thank you for such a brilliant Christmas getaway, and hopefully we'll return sometime!

Amanda

Lovely cottage, it had everything & more that we needed, in a peaceful location. . Lyn gave us a friendly welcome & the welcome pack was great, the flowers were so pretty. We really enjoyed the hot tub, so handy being just outside the bedroom door as we were there in November.. The nights it rained we sat in front of the fire which was lovely. We would definitely stay there if we go the Carmarthenshire again

The cottage is amazing in its own right. Never stayed any where so dog friendly this is why we have been twice this year. Lin is always on hand if there is problem. Not that we we had any problems. 5 stars is not enough for this cottage.

Had a lovely stay at the cottage, everything we needed. Lin was great when we arrived showingvus everything we needed to know and although next door it was a very private dwelling. Beds were comfy, shower good, hot tub great. Kitchen was small but well equipped. The surrounding areas were beautiful, stunning beaches and plenty to see. Would reccomend!

Pauline

This is truly a hidden gem, which has been lovingly restored and decorated to a high standard. Lyn and Keith are very welcoming and are happy to help in any way. I would not hesitate to recommend this lovely cottage to everyone looking for a peaceful relaxing holiday.
