A superb property with quality fixtures and fittings in a peaceful location yet within easy reach of wonderful countryside and coast. From the comfort of our sofa we were able to watch red kites swooping overhead and bats flitting around at dusk. One of the nicest properties we have ever stayed in.

What a fabulous place, everything we could have wished for! Stunningly clean well furnished and a fully equipped kitchen - thank you! We have a 2 year old so bare with the recommendations. Dolphin watching at New Quay - we took a boat trip and the guide was very knowledgeable, saw more dolphins from the shore that day but still we loved it! LeisureRead more centre for swimming (toddler session but also they have a large water slide) - Machynlleth. Also by the leisure centre in Machynlleth is a great park, walks, gardens and cafes. Aberystwyth - the castle and castle park and the great park just off the southgate round about by the community centre. Aberdyfi beach, well worth the short drive, great sandy beach, toilets near and fish and chips. We really recommend Ynyslas and Borth for lovely views and walks. Thanks for a perfect stay! Hide

Is this possibly one of the best places you could stay? From the accommodation to breakfast outside every day and falling asleep to the sound of a running stream, and don't forget star watching in a light pollution free zone. Back to reality on Tuesday, thanks once again.

Derwen was a spacious and comfortable cottage equipped to the highest standard in a lovely part of the world. Our hosts, Leanne and Aled, were everything one could wish for, helpful when need but never intrusive. We had a very relaxing holiday despite some wet days, but what can you expect in late September/ early October!
