Laughgne

Laughgne a lovely place, arrived at hotel, draught beer off and WiFi not working. Food not available in hotel from 2:30pm Sunday until Wednesday day evening, good for the figure. Most of the places to eat in Laughgne have very restricted opening times. Cleanliness and appearance of Browns good, staff a little lacklustre. In defence of Browns they did apologise and offered a small reduction in recompense.

Iconic hotel where Dylan Thomas spent a lot of time hanging out in the bar. It is lovingly decorated and the rooms were a real treat, even including a French press for coffee. Our room was huge and had lots of lovely details, including a wonderful high ceiling. We stayed in the Corran room, which still gets 5 stars in spite of a few logistical issues. The bathroom, while technically en suite, is down a couple of steps, which is a small challenge in the middle of the night. The real challenge is the low beam over these steps – at 5’6” I brushed right up against it – but then another even lower beam between the door of the bathroom and the toilet – even I hit my head on that one – but my partner (over 6’) hit his head repeatedly on both. The hotel is a short stroll from the castle, other Dylan Thomas sites, and restaurants. The front desk and bar guy (same person) was super welcoming. The hotel restaurant is closed Mondays and Tuesdays, so we did not get to eat dinner there, but breakfast (starts at 8 am was a wonderful made-to-order affair.

Great character in the building and interior designs. The location is good and staff were helpful. The one slight downside was there was a shortage of hot water for a bath in the evening. Other than that would stay there again.

Fab little boutique hotel

Great hotel in a small town famous for Dylan Thomas, and Brown's was one of his drinking haunts. All done up swish and boutiquey now. Cracking breakfast. Book ahead if you wants to eat there in the evening.
