Enjoy wonderful panoramic countryside views from every window of this contemporary bolthole, tucked away in a peaceful, rural setting on the owner’s smallholding between Drefach Felindre and Cwmduad with endless circular walks from the front door, perfect for couples wanting to explore the unspoilt beauty of West Wales.

No better remedy to unwind after a long day exploring your wonderful scenic surroundings is the open-plan studio-style design of this contemporary cottage, complete with a welcome stylish colour palette. Get creative with the delicious local produce you’ve collected in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy dining long into the evening around the breakfast bar, perfectly placed to admire unspoilt countryside views through the picture window. Hunker down for the evening on the lounge chairs and enjoy your favourite programme on the TV before retiring for a well-earned rest to the inviting and peaceful sleeping area nestled at the far end of the room. Soak up the last of the evening’s sunshine by dining alfresco on the patio with the rest of the enclosed lawn and rolling hillsides beyond as your backdrop.

Straddling the counties of Ceredigion and Carmarthenshire, this fabulous countryside location offers a myriad of superb walking trails and peaceful scenery to discover. Dive deep into the local history of the area at the market town of Newcastle Emlyn 6.5 miles away to explore its maze of independent shops and cafes to pick up some of the best local produce this area has to offer. Thrill seekers can scale the mountain biking trails at Brechfa Forest 14 miles away, or keen walkers can explore the wild beauty of the Preseli Mountains 26 miles away. From the countryside to the coast, enjoy a day at the seaside on the sandy shores of Aberporth (15 miles) and Llangrannog (14.5 miles).

Plenty of scope for visits to attractive sites in easy reach. An ONS map of the area is provided which was very useful. Very peaceful location but within easy reach of Newcastle Emlyn for self catering needs.

Reasonable property in very isolated part of Wales. Bedroom and kitchen is in the same room with two chairs and a tv for lounge area. Dog friendly which suited us. No pub or corner shop for about 7 miles.

Owner was friendly and welcoming, with nice touches such as milk and welsh cakes. Good provision of equipment. The fully enclosed garden was a great bonus as we have dogs, and didn't need to worry about them escaping for a wander. Overall very pleased. Location was very quiet and rural, with nice outlook onto a paddock with horses. It's up on a hiRead morell, which is not ideal for us at our age as the walks from the property are quite steep, but fine for younger people. Original Cottages kept in contact very well. Hide

The only reason for the low score in two categories are the mattress on the bed needs to be renewed, it is uncomfortable and secondly there are cobwebs in the bathroom and the fan needs cleaning. The shower is just about adequate.

The location is good but at least 30mins minimum to get anywhere, the property could do with some better kitchen utensils, knives etc, mop and dustpan would be a good addition also an aadditional blanket. Otherwise all is ok and enjoyed kit stay.
