Description

Just a stone's throw away from the charming harbour, delightful eateries and brightly painted houses of Aberaeron lies this stunningly stylish holiday cottage with private hot tub, wood-fired pizza oven and cosy log burner. Rhyd y Fen has been tastefully furnished throughout, boasting a bright and open living/dining area, modern galley kitchen, two comfortable bedrooms with Smart TVs and a large shower room with double width shower. Relax and unwind in the beautifully planted enclosed garden and enjoy a luxurious long soak in the private hot tub.

Reviews

This was a lovely, comfortable house in which to spend a week, in a good place to explore West Wales from. The hot tub, pizza oven and bbq were fab. There was a sizeable, delicious welcome pack. Almost everything you could need was supplied.

Mrs H,

A wonderful property; thoughtful diligence to decor and everything needed for a relaxing stay. The hamper of: cake, eggs, coffee, butter, milk, wine, and dog treats were lovely and selection of books was appreciated:). The town has an arty and relaxed atmosphere, though the beach is boulders & pebbles- We really enjoyed Tresaith and a trek at Treath Bach, which was stunning. Thank you for a lovely holiday, Emma, Sean, Alba & Louis the Boxer. X

Mrs D,

Fantastic place, cottage had everything you could have wished for. Great location and lovely and quiet. The hot tub was lovely to relax in. The welcome pack was great and added bonus and the house felt like home. We will definitely return. Wish we could have stayed for longer.

Mrs R,

Cottage was fantastic, lovely little touches, milk in fridge, fruit loaf, various things, nothing left not covered!!

Mr L,

Lovely cottage, thought the shower had been overlooked as blocked with hair. Easily removed, rest of the cottage was clean. Great location for amenities. Cottage also well stocked with a wonderful welcome pack. Would love to come again.

Mrs C,

Great house, great location. Was very well presented and felt like home for our week. Couldn't fault anything and would consider staying again in the future.

Mr K,

This cottage is immaculate, beautifully decorated, and ideally placed to explore Aberaeron and the surrounding area. Having a hot tub under cover, with both a pizza oven and a barbecue, is a real bonus. We loved everything about our weekend there (and even saw dolphins from a boat from New Quay!)

Mrs C,

Amazing property - we have stayed in a few and this is by far the best

Mrs S,

A beautiful home from home, perfect. Super location, perfect. Hot tub, perfect. An incredible, very generous, welcome basket, perfect. Thank you for our perfect holiday.

Ms G,

This cottage is a gem with everything you need to make your stay memorable. From the hot tub to the log fire it was perfect. We will definitely return.

Mr J,

Excellent holiday property with all the home comforts. Great location to get around. Lots of places to visit and great foodies.

Mrs M,

A perfect stay in every way!

Mrs P,

What a wonderful stay we have had! From the moment we arrived we loved the peace and quiet the house provided. The house is a wonderful home from home with everything you need. The layout of the house was perfect for relaxing and spending time with family but you also had space to retreat away and snuggle up with a book if you wanted to. We loved the log burner, it was fabulous and kept us warm everyday! The hot tub was a huge highlight and we made sure we made good use of it daily. The little town of Aberaeron is idillic - a place full of lovely little independent shops and the friendliest people. We will definitely be back as we loved every moment here - restful, relaxing and good for the soul! Thank you for providing such a wonderful home and the best welcome basket!

Mrs H,

Fantastic cottage in great location. The cottage over delivered v our expectations. We have stayed in many cottages over the years and this was by far the best. It was beautifully decorated and had everything we could possibly want. Loads of spices, food mixer (we baked), dressing gowns ans a lovely welcome basket. We had a couple of queries and the owner came round straight away to help us. Fabulous in every way.

Mrs M,

What a wonderful cottage! Beautifully renovated with all the home comforts you could need. Wonderful location with lots of places to walk and things to see. The hot tub and garden area was fantastic and a great place to relax after a day out exploring Wales. We loved it so much were planning to go back next year! Lovely hosts who check in and leave a lovely welcoming hamper. Couldn't have asked for a better week away for me, my partner and our little dog Bella. Thanks again! :)

Miss N,

Wow what a stunning cottage. Spotlessly clean, great location. Loved Aberaeron, lovely pubs. Y Seller for lovely food and the hot tub was fantastic. Will definitely be back next year! Thank you for the welcome pack, was lovely. Don't want to go home. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Past Customer,

Wow! What a lovely cottage. Everything you need, welcome pack was a great touch! We enjoyed Aberporth beach and the nice pubs. Thanks for a great week.

Past Customer,

When we arrived we all were delighted how nice, beautiful, clean this house is. The hot tub was a great place to relax and chill out. Aberaeron is a lovely place, with plenty of restaurants to choose from it is a fantastic location to explore much more of the surrounding area. We all had a fantastic time, thank you. Look forward to our next visit.

Past Customer,

We have had a great time exploring this part of Wales. The high lights for us was Tresaith beach, it was like a deserted island. We also had fun at New Quay and the cottage has been truly fabulous and we will visit it again! Thank you so much for having us.

Past Customer,

Excellent property in great location - everything you need for a lovely break and especially enjoyed the welcome treats!

Mr L,

Brilliant cottage in the heart of Aberaeron. Very comfy and well kitted, a real ‘home from home’. Can’t wait to stay again

Mr M,

Many thanks for a wonderful stay. You were very thoughtful hosts the welcome basket and flowers were lovely. The cottage was well thought out and a real home from home with the added bonus of the hot tub. Would love to return at some point. We would recommend several restaurants in Aberaeron, The Stubborn Duckling, Y seler, The Harbourmaster, The Hive. Great beaches within half an hour, Llangrannog, Aberporth, TRESAITH our favourite.

Miss Elaine J,

Owners have renovated property to a good standard. Private garden with hot tub made it even better. Close to shops are bars … couldn’t fault it.

Mrs R,

Great property in a good location. Generally comfortable and well equipped throughout, although the bed in the main bedroom was a bit too soft for us and we would have appreciated some comfortable garden seating. But overall it was a great place to stay and we would consider staying there again.
