A location which is very special. Very relaxing with beautiful views. Hot tub is a real bonus. Beds are very comfortable. Reasonable WiFi and mobile signal. Plenty of room for two couples, two teenagers and a dog. Plenty of equipment and helpful host.

We really enjoyed our stay, beautiful location, lovely and quiet. A very welcomed break with lots to see and do in the area. Cottage had everything we needed. Hot tub a real treat to watch the sunsets in. Very dog friendly with enclosed garden and lots of walks in the door step. We would love to return and would recommend it to friends and family.

Lovely spacious farm house with amazing views and walks from the front door .

Mr W,

Lovely cottage in fantastic position with amazing views

Mrs H,

We absolutely loved staying here! We didn't have the best weather but couldnt have asked for a better host and location. The view from the hot tub over looking Dyfi estuary and cader Idris are spectacular on a clear day. Was the best way to spend my 30th.

Miss B,

Nice cottage in a rural location with nice views.

Mrs R,

We had great stay at your cottage. Hot tub was ready from the first minute of our arrival! 37.5 degrees was the water temperature, so nice. Log burner was actually my favourite, we had enough wood to keep the magical evenings. Can you think about anything better than coming out from the hot tub and popping into living room where the log burner is on? Thanks for having us. Maybe we will see you again in summer? Cheers, Marek and the family

Mr J,

We've had a lovely stay here over the New Year! Loved the secluded location, dog walks and the hot tub. Went to Bwlch Nant yr Arian Forest to see the red kites being fed and also to Borth.

Past Customer,

Had a fabulous few nights in this beautiful house. Lovely views, so peaceful. Hot tub was great even in the chilly weather. Lovely walks from the house with the dogs. Nature reserve, waterfalls Hafod estate was a great place for walks and Devils bridge. Would recommend friends to come and stay here, cosy nights in by the fire, playing games, and family time thank you so much to the owners.

Past Customer,

What a perfect location to explore this region. Who cares what the weather brings, although it was pretty good; even some sunshine. Such a comfortable cottage, and the kitchen range was great for one-pot slow cooking, while keeping things cosy. Thank you.

A relaxing family break in a beautiful house set in stunning countryside with a view of the sea. The hot tub was great too. We visited Aberystwyth, Machynlleth on market day (Wed), Borth & Clarach. We went on the Rheidol steam railway to Devils Bridge and to the Corris Craft centre (lovely Welsh Rarebit in the cafe here).
