    Within a few miles of Llandeilo, well worth exploring. A good base to visit various attractions including Dinefwr, National Botanic Garden of Wales, Pembrey and Llyn Lech Owain Country Parks. Thankyou for the welcome pack and for allowing dogs.

  • "Peaceful and so pleasant."

    The area was stunning with the wildlife around the area being stunning with red kites and other birds flying around all day. The locals were so friendly and welcoming, we even went for lunch in the village hall with them which was a lovely invite. The dogs were so chilled out and happy at the accommodation it was so nice to not hear fireworks and such like. Many thanks to Vikki and Adam for making our break so easy. We will be going back again.

    Thanks so much for your lovely feedback- we’re so glad you and the pups enjoyed your stay! Thank you for leaving School Lodge so clean and tidy, we hope you do all return :-) Property Owner

    Every thing about the accommodation was perfect, clean and tidy, the beds were very comfortable, and the floors were easy to keep clean (we had 5 dogs and it rained every day!) the garden is a great space for families and 4 legged friends. Everyone we met in the village were friendly and gave us plenty of local info. We had a fabulous week and would love to re-book again in the future.

    Exactly how it was described and spotless clean. You had everything you needed on a short break. Good location as you can go to the beach and The Green Bridge of Wales is about 1hour away. I would highly recommend staying in School Lodge and thia won't be the last time we stayed there.

  • "Comfortable and well equipped cottage within a lovely rural village ."

    Enjoyed the lanes and the dog exercise area at the memorial hall. Events there should be advertised somehow. A hairdryer would have been helpful. Loved the space inside and the back garden and spent some time watching the birds finding food for their young.

    Thanks very much for your lovely review, we’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay. We appreciate your suggestions and have ordered a hairdryer. The Salem Village Hall information is included in the welcome pack however we will make this more prominent for future guests. Thanks again. Property Owner

    Such a beautiful property in a lovely part of Wales. There is so much to do in the local area. The garden is so peaceful. This was the best equipped property we’ve been to. There is literally everything in the kitchen one could need and the beds are so comfortable. The hosts are so accommodating and genuinely lovely people.

  • "I loved every second of our week in The school Lodge."

    The cottage was really spacious downstairs and had literally everything you could need. It is at the end of a small lane so there is literally no outside traffic noise and you wake up to the sound of nature and the red kites soaring over the roof windows. We visited the local national trust property and grounds several times during our stay and had gorgeous walks with our dogs. Beaches are 40-50 minutes away and we visited several during our week. the beds are very comfortable and during the wet weather we sat in and watched films and chilled. This was just what I needed to reset after a tough few months.
