“Home From Home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2010

I spent 8 months working in the nearby town of Carmarthen. During this period I stayed at Tre Bentir my 'Second Home'. The friendliest, cleanest,warmest bed and breakfast accommodation I have stayed in. It seemed to be the longest winter ever. But had it not been for Sarah and her warm welcome, it would hevae been even longer. Your own access, privacy and eating breakfast when you please, with added view of the estuary and castle make it perfect. It is also ideally located for the best restaurant in Laugharne. I also had the fortune of meeting some wonderful local people.I finished my stay in July, and I have already been back for two nights during a Wales holiday. It won't be long before I am back.

Many thanks Sarah.

“one night in a dorma”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2010

I note other contributor's comments about living in a dorma bungalow and therefore not encountering difficulties with the sloping walls, but I don't, and I did. The only way to access the cupboard containing the fridge and larder was to go down on one's knees or bend in two; in other words, insufficient attention is paid to the ergonomics, or user-friendly nature of the room. But Sarah is a pleasant if low profile hostess, and the ambience is a peaceful one

“ticked all the boxes”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2009

We stayed one night in Tre Bentir to attend a wedding in a nearby hotel. Everything about the accommodation was just as we had hoped having read the positive reviews.

We were met by Sarah who was friendly and accommodating. The dorma room in the attic was very clean & fresh with wonderful velux windows opening up to reveal a prefectly relaxing and charming view. The linen was clean & fresh and the bed was comfortable. Because we live in a dorma bungalow we did not encounter any problems bumping heads on the ceiling as other people have reported!

Being able to help yourself to breakfast was a lovely relaxing way to start the day, and there were more than ample provisions left for us including organic bread, cereals, fruit juice etc (and the lovely biscuits!)

Our only regret - we couldnt hang around to enjoy the peace & tranquility for longer due to an early start back home the following morning, but we did have time to squeeze in a walk along the castle to the boat house and enjoy the fabulous views.

If you are looking for a reasonably priced short break where you have the freedom to explore and do your own thing without losing out on comfort and excellent facilities I would recommend Tre Bentir

“Bed And Breakfast With A Difference”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 July 2009
1
person found this review helpful

I really loved staying in Tre Bentir as its different from the normal B&B experience. You are left to you own devices and the breakfast is all provided in the room. This means that although you don't get cooked breakfast, you can follow your own timetable, get up when you want and was generally much more relaxing. Also if you are in the middle of a trip involving a lot of B&B stays, its a nice change to not have a cooked breakfast. I don't know why more B&Bs don't work like this

The room itself is nicely done out in a modern IKEA standard, and I loved being able to sit out on the balcony and look across the estuary. The room also had little extra touches like high quality biscuits and lots of handwritten info on Laugharne which just added to the quality experience. The fact that the room was actually very cheap compared to virtually every else we stayed is amazing. A tiny thing to note, cos the room is a loft conversion, the walls of the room slope in a little bit, so if you're tall like me, you have to bend over occaionally to avoid bumping your head.

Laugharne is a fabulous place with lots of character. I didn't really care about the Dylan Thomas stuff before we arrived, but I found the boathouse and the views from it very emotive. The castle is splendid and there's plenty of place to eat and drink. A wonderful town all in all.
