Such a lovely house, beautifully decorated and furnished to a high standard and very well equipped. Plenty of room for all the family. The views were amazing and we really enjoyed spending time on the outside decking area with the little ones. We love Aberdovey and have been visiting for over 35 years. The proximity to the Roman road and nearby covRead moree was great, its a very scenic, quiet area of the village. If you are visiting with a dog please be aware that the garden is not enclosed and open to the busy road. The steps to the garden are shared with the house next door and they have a private garden at the top too, so any pets need to be closely supervised outside. Fortunately the lovely neighbour was very understanding. Thank you! Hide

Fantastic place to stay. Lots of space for our party of 7 adults.

We stayed here as two families each with one child (aged 7 and 3). The layout of the property and the proximity to the sea front was just perfect. Along with a spacious downstairs for the boys to get their toys out or watch TV.
