The West Wales General Hospital in Carmarthen is a 30 – 45 min drive and the nearest doctor is in Newcastle Emlyn, which is 20 mins. away from Fron Fawr.

 

 

 

Can you have groceries delivered?

back to question list

 

Yes, you can pre-order your groceries via Tesco or Asda.com or a local farm shop and have them delivered directly to your cottage.

 

To order from Tesco: For those guests staying at Fron Fawr, you need to use the post-code SA37 0HS on the tesco.com website and choose ‘Fron Fawr’ from the list of addresses, making sure you state the name of your cottage in the ‘Delivery Instructions’. It is also best to give our phone number for queries (07974 410385) as mobile signal is poor.

 

Please, please ensure that you change the delivery address from your home address if you currently use Tesco.com. We have had two instances where guests have forgotten to do this and their shopping was being delivered to their home address whilst they were waiting for it in Wales!!

 

 

 

 

How far is the nearest town and supermarket?

back to question list

 

Cardigan is the nearest town to Fron Fawr (5 miles away) and is an historic market town with High Street shops and a Tesco supermarket, amongst others. For grocery essentials, there is a village shop in Boncath, just 1 mile away.

back to question list

 

Yes there is, details of which are contained in the cottage information folder. Both Newcastle Emlyn and Cardigan have Indian and Chinese Take-Aways and there is an excellent Fish and Chip Shop near Cardigan – Bowen’s Fish and Chips in St. Dogmaels.

back to question list

 

Yes there is, however, it does vary in strength from cottage to cottage.
