Laugharne

The medieval Township of Laugharne is situated on the Estuary of the River Tâf around 12 miles south of the Market Town of Carmarthen There is a wide range of amenities in Laugharne including a chemist, convenience store, delicatessen, cafes, doctor’s surgery, public houses, restaurants and hotels all within walking distance. Its association with the poet, Dylan Thomas is renowned who famously described Laugharne as "timeless, mild, beguiling island of a town" and it is widely believed that Laugharne inspired the fictional town of LLareggub in 'Under Milk Wood'. Dylan resided in many properties in Laugharne but most famously in the Boat House which is located nearby as well as his writing shed which are now popular tourist destinations. There are beautiful walks surrounding Laugharne as well as views of the the estuary and nearby is the coastal village of Pendine famed for its 7-mile long beach.
The nearby small town of St Clears offer a wide range of amenities for day to day needs as well as easy access on the A40 to the Market Town Carmarthen which has plenty to offer with many of the top named shops located there.

Gwalia House

Gwalia House along with it's neighbouring properties, The Globe and Manchester House, are 'economy buildings' of the late 18th century and were built on top of the original medieval barrel-vaulted cellars with 4ft thick walls which would have been used for the storage of grain.
In more recent years the property was a drapers shop and it is believed that one of Dylan Thomas' characters in Under Milk wood was "Mog Edwards" the Draper based at Gwalia!
Gwalia has been completely modernised over recent year by the present vendors but still retains much of its charm and character with many period features that enhance this delightful property. An ideal family home but more recently it has been a holiday let which makes the property ideal for purchasers looking for an investment opportunity whilst also enjoying Gwalia for your own use at the odd weekend you want to get away from it all.
To truly appreciate its charm, luxury and elegance we strongly recommend you view the property.
