Kyrle, John and Stanley 🐾🐾 - March 2019We hate to leave! We felt welcome and honoured and we loved everything about our stay in this beautiful place.
Gayle and Mike, Suzi and Bob from Florida USA Oct 14Thank you for another great stay. This is our second stay and still as magical as the first. To say that Willow has enjoyed herself would be an understatement! Especially enjoyed our walks together. Take care, love Gemma, Ben and Willow x
Gemma, Ben and Willow - September 2020Marvellous! The welcome cream tea was delicious and we also enjoyed the nice little talks with Sue and Jonah. A perfect holiday for all of us… we will definitely come back!
Silke, Carsten and Kalle and Rasmus the Dogs - Hamburg, Germany, July 2015Well, our 3 weeks have flown by! We’ve walked, revisiting old haunts and finding new places. Roman roads, stone circles, castles, all in wonderful scenery. Tan’s had a whale of a time with his friends Barney and Teddy. Thank you so much, Sue and Jonah for your wonderful place and our evening walks. We will be back for a 5th visit!
Angie, Alan and Tan 🐕 - September 2019Dear Sue & Jonah, Thank you for making our stay in Basel Cottage so enjoyable. The cottage is fantastic and we loved the area. Tyler is really going to miss you both and really enjoyed the archery and spending time in your company – maybe Jack will be walking when we return! Lovely cottage and grounds, such a fab family holiday! Thank you xxx
Dave, Rachel, Tyler & Jack from Somerset - August 2016Just perfect in every way. Truly dog friendly! The woods are lovely. Local walks great. Beautiful cottage, warm and cosy. Sue & Jonah fantastic hosts – would definitely recommend.
Hilary, Mark & Cocker Spaniels Seve & Beau - March 2016What more can we add to previous comments about how great this place is and the warm hospitality of Sue & Jonah. We stayed 5 days and highlights included Dinefwr Park & Castle, day trip to Tenby and a sunny walk around the National Botanic Garden of Wales. Really comfortable cottage, fabulous views – probably the BEST holiday cottage we have ever stayed in. BIG THANK YOU!
Irmi & Keith - November 2016Not many words needed, just a brilliant stay – 4th time! Asked the dogs Max & Boyce what they thought of it – wagged their tails and started to bark, full of excitement!!!! – Guess they agreed! Diolch yn fawr to Sue & Jonah.
Marcel, Annick, Max & Boyce - June 2016We have had a very relaxing week with lots of birds to watch. Cottage is so comfortable and nice cream tea as a welcome. See you next year.
Penny, Peter with Millie and Phoebe - Oct 15Our 7th stay at Basel Cottage and once again we had a wonderful stay. A peaceful few days at a home away from home thanks to your wonderful hospitality and lovely cottage. We will be back next year! Best wishes to you both.
Robert, Ceri, Annemarie & Brenie 🐕 from Neath, South Wales - November 2019It has been a real joy to return again to Basel Cottage, to your delightful and warm welcome. You are to be congratulated on keeping up your immaculate standards and personal warmth. With all our love xxx
Beccy, Craig & Royston - May 2017Thank you very much for your friendly and warm welcome – not to mention the little touch with the slate ‘Welcoming Sign’ and the delicious Cream Tea. You can tell how much thought and love and of course hard work that goes into running this beautiful cottage! There is so much space inside and outside and the views and tranquility of the setting is second to none. It was absolutely perfect for us and Murphy enjoyed playing and exploring outside. To bring the motorbike and the car certainly paid off and the roads around here are great ‘biker roads’. There is still so much to do and see! Thanks again from all of us xxx

Chris, Sarah, Issy and Theo the Dog - February 2018Stunning cottage in an amazing location. Thank you for the wonderful scones on arrival. Rebecca had never tried them before and she is now a big fan of them! We had a fantastic time visiting Hay on Wye and museums in Swansea after travelling on the Heart of Wales Railway. Also went on the lovely Gwili Steam Railway. Took in the wonderful scenery this area has to offer and recommend the roads around Lynne Briane Reservoir. Also recommend Pengawse Tea Rooms in Llandovery – lovely food and large portions. Thanks for a fantastic week, we will be back again!
Stuart, Julie & Rebecca from Wokingham - August 2019Thank you Sue and Jonah for a wonderful ‘welcome home’ after 3 years and for the delicious Cream Tea on arrival. Had a great time in the woods with the dogs and roaming on Pembrey Beach ( the dogs not US!) Hope to see you again soon!
