There is always a warm welcome at the Cottage Inn from the new owners. This goes for the staff as well. The food is excellent and reasonably priced, a combination we needed in this area. For the summer there is an excellent beer garden where food is served.

I visited for a meal on the strength of reports of new owners, but disappointingly the food was mediocre at best and the beer at the time poor. The atmosphere is strange and not entirely comfortable for "outsiders" wanting a quiet meal, but it may suite many people. I may call again at some point in the future to see... More

Prior to Autumn 2011 the Cottage Inn was a place to avoid. We suffered the surly lack of interest and the grey dishwater soup once too often. Being local we knew where not to go. We were delighted when it changed hands and discovered the new friendly, civil, generous, warm owners had taken over. We haven't stayed there (being local)... More

We only had Sunday lunch here yesterday but please avoid the place until the new owners have appointed a chef that can cook. It's sad to have to write a negative report on such a public forum but this is how food was prepared in Wales in the '50s. Glutinous soup; unidentifiable grey meat which was suppose to be beef...

On arrival to the cottage inn we were greeted by no one, tried looking for the entrance, no reception so waited by the bar for 5 mins before a lovely girl welcomed us, showed us to our room and said dinner is served between 6.30 and 8.30pm. Room was fairly clean, apart from cushion on the bed which smelt like... More

My wife and I visited the Cottage Inn during January 2011, staying in room 2. We were well greeted at the bar and shown to our room accordingly. A good start. Unfortunately it did go down hill after that. We decided to have an early night, although it didn't matter as the room is directly above the bar and there... More

Highly recommended. We have just spent 2 nights at the Cottage Inn in LLandeilo and really enjoyed it. The room was extremely clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good quality and well prepared. We only had one evening meal here but again the quality for the price was excellent. A lovely place to stay at a very reasonable price
