We found the cottage absolutely beautiful. It was very clean, well equipped to a very high standard and is close to all the amenities in New Quay. The owner was always very good at coming back to us quickly whenever we had any questions and was extremely helpful. The garden does have very steep steps, but if you're careful and once up the top, thRead moree garden is lovely and peaceful with plenty of seating for chilling out (the dogs appreciated the grassed area rather than the courtyards most holiday rentals offer). As everyone has commented in previous reviews, the scenery is stunning and we thoroughly enjoyed our dolphin spotting. We would highly recommend this cottage and have already booked again for later this year. Hide

We stayed at Hedd Mor for a week in August as a family of five, and had a wonderful time.

The coastal path is just at the end of the road, making it easy to explore the beautiful coastline. We were lucky enough to see so many dolphins during our stay, which was an amazing experience. Parking was no problem at all. New Quay itself is a brilliant destination for families. It has everything you could need: a gorgeous beach thats shallow and safe at low tide, plenty of watersports, opportunities for crabbing, and a handy little beach shack for snacks and refreshments. We couldnt have asked for a better holiday and would love to return! Hide

This charming cottage, with broad views across New Quay harbour and the wider bay beyond, is delightful. It is beautifully decorated and furnished, thoughtfully equipped and we found it, on arrival, spotlessly clean. Not only was the house itself welcoming and comfortable; all the information and guidance supplied by the owner - about the central hRead moreeating for example - was clear, considered and helpful. Although it was an easy walk, via a narrow car-free passage, to the beach, harbour wall and pubs/shops, we enjoyed the peaceful surroundings of house and garden just as much as we enjoyed New Quay itself, with its many attractions. We can't recommend this holiday cottage highly enough. Hide
