Horton View Cottage is set within the picturesque coastal village of Ferryside near the banks of the estuary where the river Towy joins the Carmarthen Bay. Enjoy a short stroll to the beach and all facilities including a shop, pub, café, and swimming pool. This really is an ideal base for exploring Southwest Wales with sandy beaches and wonderful countryside close by, the train station is also in the village so access on foot is perfect. The Millennium Coastal Park footpath runs from Ferryside and visits the rugged coves, stunning beaches, and dramatic coastline this area has to offer and is perfect by foot or cycle and runs for 14 miles passing Kidwelly, Burry Port and onto Llanelli.
Horton View Cottage is set peacefully along a residential street of similar properties and has been renovated fully in 2021 to a very good standard throughout and enjoys a bright and airy living room which is perfect for enjoying a good book or a movie with your family after a busy day exploring. The open plan kitchen and dining room are perfect for preparing that special meal and lead through French doors to a small courtyard seating area for al fresco dining or enjoying a BBQ. On the first floor both bedrooms are spacious and characterful with vaulted ceilings, original beams, and feature fireplace.
Kidwelly boasts a Norman castle, industrial heritage museum and Pembrey Country Park and Motorsport Centre, within approximately 10 minutes’ drive away. The National Botanical Gardens, Laugharne and many Pembrokeshire attractions are about half an hour’s drive. There are many places to visit including Dylan Thomas’ cottage in the township of Laugarne where he spent the last years of his life. A trip to the coastal walled town of Tenby is around a 45-minute drive, here your family can discover the cobbled streets; take a boat trip to Caldey Island to see the Cistercian monks; have a paddle or enjoy fish and chips on the harbour walls. Oakwood Theme Park, Folly Farm Zoo and Heatherton World of Adventure, are also a nearby fantastic day out.
