Overview

We love Clynfyw and have returned many times. I don't understand the previous review. There's always plenty of parking space but admittedly, it is a farm and many other things so when you arrive, you may have to let yourself in, but Jim or someone'll pop in later to welcome you and see that you are ok. I have MS and have found this is a great place to stay with friends and family. Jim Bowen, who runs it, is more than happy to advise and lend equipment as needed. All the cottages have been well adapted for wheelchairs. Hoists, commodes, bed levers, hospital-type beds & probably more are available on request. Arrange it in advance with Jim. Wales seems much better at catering for the disabled than England; accessible loos abound. There are lots of wheelchair accessible places to enjoy nearby but you need your own transport to get around. I thoroughly recommend the nature reserve at Ciilgarren (which is fully accessible & has a wonderful cafe & the delightful little market town, Newcastle Emelyn with it's remains of a castle and fine array of interesting shops. The sea's not far by car and when there hasn't been a drought the sand's been firm enough at Poppet Sands for me to drive my heavy electric wheelchair accross the sand & up to rock pools (enter beach by the shop/cafe & turn left. There's cheese making at Caws Cenarth. Clynfyw is very eco friendly too. It's also a centre for a charity that reconditions old wheelchairs and other disability equipment for the Third World.
