In-Depth Information
( 01994-427263; www.theboathousebnb.co.uk ; 1 Gosport St; £80; ) Friendly, homey and taste-
fully decorated, the blue-painted Boat House is the smartest B&B in town, with four su-
perior rooms. The building was formerly the Corporation Arms pub, where Dylan Thomas
told stories in exchange for free drinks. The great home-cooked breakfasts would assuage
even Thomas' legendary hangovers.
Keepers Cottage
( 01994-427404; www.keepers-cottage.com ; s/d £60/80; ) Sitting on the top of the hill by the
main approach to town, this pretty cottage has simply decorated but very comfortable
rooms. Complimentary bottled water and glasses of wine are a nice touch.

Corran
( 01994-427417; www.thecorran.com ; East Marsh; from £225; ) Having had a £5 million
makeover, you would expect this converted Georgian farm on the salt-marsh flats south of
Laugharne to be luxurious. And it is. Rooms have big beds, bold colours and roll-top
baths; there's also massage therapy on tap, and a convivial, clubbish lounge bar and res-
taurant.
