Perfectly poised along Borth’s fabulous seafront with direct access to the beach from the rear patio, this semi-detached coastal retreat is the ultimate family getaway to enjoy the magical coastline and mountain ranges this part of Ceredigion has to offer.

Your incredible sandy surroundings never feel too far away in the upstairs lounge, offering a cane suite and a truly coastal colour palette that perfectly mirrors the stunning view of the sandy beach from the large picture window. On the first floor, there is a sitting area on the landing with a cane suite and a window with stunning sea views, retreat to the three first-floor bedrooms for a well-earned rest. If you’re not quite ready for bed, fire up the electric flame-effect fire in the cosy ground floor lounge to keep paws and toes toasty as the cooler coastal breeze brushes past, or head into the beautifully presented farmhouse-style kitchen/diner to rustle up a fabulous locally sourced feast to feed the crowd. Soak up your seaside surroundings by spilling out onto the rear patio to dine alfresco before heading to the beach to catch some stunning sunsets over the sandy shoreline.

The small yet mighty seaside village of Borth nestled in Ceredigion is just 7 miles north of the foodie mecca of Aberystwyth and offers a long stretch of golden sand that joins to the dunes of nearby Ynyslas (2 miles). Offering shallow waters perfect for surfing, sailing and fishing, and 3 miles of glorious golden sand, enjoy a traditional at the seaside at Borth’s Blue Flag award beach, one of Ceredigion’s most popular beaches with families. Join up with the spectacular clifftop Wales Coast Path, following the route of the former Ceredigion Coast Path, from Borth to Aberystwyth; at low tide, keep your eyes peeled for the remains of the sunken forests in the waters below.

Loved my stay, perfect location for walking to the supermarket, cafe and beach. Beautiful views, very clean, well equipped and comfortable. Nice patio to enjoy the view of the sea, as well as the upstairs sitting area which was lovely.

The property is very clean and tastefully understated. Lovely picture windows looking out to sea. Good heating and hot water and plenty of crockery etc. Fish and chip shop over the road with food, fresh fried. The Railway Inn, further down the street does a mean Sunday lunch. Also good cafes and well stocked supermarket. Cinema and good restaurantRead more 5 minutes walk awayThere is also a regular train service from Borth. We stayed 3 nights but, wished we had stayed for a week.The reason we like Borth is that change comes very slowly, if at all, and that's its charm. You can book The Coup and enjoy the break!! Hide
