In the heart of the Ceredigion countryside, this romantic couple’s retreat comes with a wood burner, quirky outdoor bath and exclusive use of an 11-acre meadow. If you can tear yourselves away, it’s a perfect location for walks along quiet lanes, amid the Cambrian Mountains and at the coast – Aberystwyth is just 7 miles away.
Amid a meadow surrounded by open farmland, this dreamy abode makes an ideal choice for couples seeking somewhere to switch off and reconnect. Use a trolley to transport your belongings from the parking area – with a sheltered deck to the front, the wood-panelled hut is instantly welcoming. Inside, colourful details and warm timber finishes create a characterful ambience, with a sofa positioned close to the wood burner, while an electric heating system ensures warmth at any time of day or night. To one end of the hut, there’s a raised double bed with rustic wooden storage below. On the other side of the seating area, the kitchen has all the essentials for hassle-free self-catering; beyond that, there’s a refreshing shower room and WC. Fire up the BBQ, share al fresco food and refreshments on the decking area, or enjoy unspoilt starry skies as you sit by the chimenea. A fabulous finishing touch, the double-ended sunken outdoor bath delivers the ultimate in laid-back luxury.
This gorgeous getaway is on the edge of a small village with immediate access to quiet country lanes and footpaths. Explore the beautiful Ystwyth Valley (7 miles), board the Vale of Rheidol Railway (6 miles) to the impressive Devil’s Bridge Falls (6 miles), or wander round the historic Hafod Estate (10 miles). For day trips to the coast, Aberystwyth has a classic seaside promenade, pier, and a fine choice of independent shops, inns and eateries. The beaches at Clarach Bay (7 miles), Borth (10 miles) and Ynyslas National Nature Reserve (14 miles) are all worth a visit too.
