The venue – Llareggub
A Dylan Thomas-inspired, upside-down house in the coastal village of Saundersfoot, with stunning Atlantic Ocean views from every room.
Cool, contemporary, and impossibly scenic, Llareggub is the perfect coastal escape for a romantic couple looking for a getaway, or a larger group/family seeking an enviably located seaside retreat.
For starters, the house's location in Saundersfoot means you can take in all the amazing beauty of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, with windswept strolls and peaceful dog walks along the uncrowded coastal path. Not to mention incredible views of the Atlantic Ocean right from the house itself, which you can take in from each of the living rooms.
There's a lot of love and care to be found at Llareggub (which spells ‘bugger all' backwards, in affectionate homage to writer Dylan Thomas's fictional village in Under Milk Wood.)
“Be joyful, keep the faith, and do the little things that you have heard and seen me do.
Gwnewch y pethau bychain mewn bywyd.”
