About
Glanmarlais is a dementia care home in the village of Llandybie, between Ammanford and Llandeilo in Carmarthenshire, Wales. The home provides nursing and dementia care in 74 ensuite bedrooms spread over three floors. It was built in 1969 as a local authority home and was re-opened in 2018 under Padda Care after a complete refurbishment. The entrance hall has a hotel-style feel, and the ground floor dining room looks out over an enclosed garden. Residents have a hairdressing salon, a large day room with floor-to-ceiling windows, and a first-floor day room with views over the recreation field and woodland behind the home, along with a quiet lounge for visiting family.
