“Fabulous firendly owners with lovely comfortable rooms, amazing sea veiws!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2010

Debbie and Richard were extremely friendly and easy to talk to, I had specific requests and they were very accommodating, such as my gluten free diet . This was my first trip to Swansea and there was an excellent folder detailing various things to do in and around Swansea, a lovely touch and was available in my room. Defiantly a home from home environment and I would recommend to any couple or small family. Thank you

“Worst place in Wales”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2010

Forget about Swansea, forget about Beachcrombie, the worst place in Wales. First they asked us the money and then they showed us the place. Dirty, dusty, old and cracked. It was like sleeping on the highway.
Forget about this, skip Swansea (except for Dylan Thomas Museum) and sleep in smaller places like Laugharne and Fishguard.

We are on a sea front road, I`m sorry but traffic noise is one thing we cannot do anything about.

We have won awards for tourism and welcome and our place is 3 star graded by the tourist board, so I refute claims our rooms are not clean and tidy read our other reviews as proof of this.
