Mrs Spittle
July 2020

“We stayed at the cottage for a week from the 24th of July, no issues with the cleanliness of the cottage as a previous reviewer has mentioned.”

The TV did not work in the lounge on arrival but we called the owners, who then bought a replacement the next day. Could no ask for more really. The garden is lovely and ideal for dogs, very secure even for smaller dogs like ours being border terriers!! The area is beautiful, lots of walks within a few miles. The Hafod estate has lovely walks for all, some more challenging than others. Aberaeron good for some fish and chips!

“Well-equipped cottage set in a beautiful landscape with all you could possibly need.”

Lovely walks around quiet lanes right from the front door and Devil's Bridge only 2.5 miles away. Secluded but an easy 20-minute drive to Aberystwyth so not too remote. We loved it so much that we'll certainly book again, either later this year if possible or early 2021. Owners are friendly and helpful. All in all, one of the best holidays we've had.

Mrs Cudlip May 2018

“Lovely cottage with most beautiful views across to Plynlimon and nice walks round the lanes locally.”

Garden was great and very safely fenced. Blessed with perfect weather too! Enjoyed the Rheidol railway which was conveniently near at Devil's Bridge and visited Aberystwyth to go on the cliff railway and walk around up on the cliffs. Walked at the Hafod estate on a hot day with bluebells everywhere and went to the beach at Borth and to Strata Florida abbey.

Mr Guest April 2018

“The cottage was everything we hoped for.”

We have quite a big dog and it was more then comfortable for the 3 of us. The garden was gorgeous, plenty of space for Jax to run around. Only issue we had was as pets wernt allowed upstairs (rightly so) as it was carpeted we had to use the dining chairs as a make shift barrier on the stairs but that became second nature to do anyway. The bedrooms were amazing, we used the ensuite room, huge comfy bed and the shower was brilliant. Really can't fault this cottage, we even had dog biscuits, a loaf of bread and the fire was made up on our arrival. The communication before we arrived was brilliant aswell, very helpful. We hope to go back again soon.

“Tranquil Escape”

Easy to find, even though in the depths of the Welsh countryside, about 10 miles from Aberystwyth. The cottage was well apportioned with all that you would need, plenty of useful crockery, cutlery and cooking aids. The dishwasher was a bonus. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of storage, having two bathrooms was also a useful extra. The Summerhouse was our favourite even when the weather was not at it's best, the views from here and the cottage itself were excellent. Seeing the "Kites" flying daily was quite an amazing sight. Would not hesitate to re-book for a quiet away from it all escape.

Mr Morgan May 2015

“An exceptional place to get away from daily life and relax.”

Not too remote but nice.

- Mr Morgan, May 2015
Mrs Woodward March 2015

“The views, the wood burner, proximity to great walking country and the sea, the remoteness (it is VERY remote).”

“Quiet Bliss”

I booked this cottage on line, and was hugely delighted! Situated about 20 minutes [10 miles] from Aberystwyth, the cottage [semi detached] is set in the beautiful rolling hills to the east of the town. Everything was as described: lovely open plan living area downstairs with a fabulous log-burner [and a constant easy supply of logs for a very reasonable price!]; the kitchen was well stocked with equipment, as well as a few basics to get you started! The dining area was comfy; the bedrooms were great - lovely soft beds and plenty of storage. The bathrooms were really well fitted out in beautiful [local?] slate. The garden was on several levels and also had a Summer House which provided spectacular views of the surroundings. We took our Cocker Spaniel with us who just loved everything - the garden, the fire, the walks and the sheep. Must mention the huge number of Red kites that were always present around the house and hills - everywhere you went - quite breath-taking. The cottage was really central and accessible for lots of local activities and trips, of which we were able to participate. It was very well priced - considering we went in half term. For a couple of teachers - it was peaceful, relaxing bliss!! Thoroughly recommended!

Mr Phillips August 2014

- Mr Davies, June 2014
Mr Pugh February 2014

“We liked the peace and quiet in such beautiful surroundings and not too far from Aberystwyth for essentials.”

The dogs seemed so contented, we would love to find a cottage like it once our children have flown the nest. Everything you could think of the cottage certainly had.

“A nice place inthe countryside”

If you like being out in the countryside, this is the place for you. Has an old world feel to it but has modern facilities. Quiet location. Little lane opposite to walk dog. Lovely enclosed garden. Adequate parking. Great on-suite shower/bathroom and separate bathroom if you have a larger party.

“Peaceful with stunning views”

The need for peace and quiet is essential for me when booking anywhere so it is always a gamble when you choose somewhere unknown. The gamble paid off. I wouldn't normally book a semi detached property, as you just don't know who is next door but at this cottage I didn't know we had any neighbours unless I saw the car pulling in. A very peaceful property, located approximately 3/4 of a mile from the A4120 to Aberystwyth (12 miles away), set on top of one of the many hills locally down a quiet lane. The views from the property extend to the mouintains and hills beyond and were great to wake up to. The beds were extremely comfortable and the cottage homey with a nice wood burner in the open fireplace. One bedroom was en suite and the other had use of the main bathroom and shower. This property is ideal for a couple looking for a romantic break or a young family as they can enjoy the many attractions locally as well as the never ending walking and cycling trails available. We took my Mother and Step Father and it was cosy so if you think about sharing with friends make sure you know them well. We will definitely be booking this cottage again as, although basic, it is a cosy, peaceful little place and a great spot to explore from

About the location

DEVIL’S BRIDGE

Aberystwyth 12 miles.

Nestling between the Cambrian Mountains and the Cardigan Bay coastline, Devil's Bridge has been a tourist attraction for centuries and was celebrated by author George Borrow who wrote Wild Wales in 1854. This famous bridge spans the Mynach, a tributary of the River Rheidol and is unique as it is actually three bridges in one, the original built around 1100, the second above this in 1753 and the third in 1903. The bridge is at a point where the River Mynach drops 90 metres (300 ft) in 5 steps down a steep and narrow ravine before it meets the River Rheidol. The set of stone steps leading down to the lowest bridge at the waterfall are known as Jacob's Ladder. The attraction offers viewing points and after the steep walk there is a hotel and cafe for refreshments. Devil's Bridge is served by the Devil's Bridge railway station on the historic narrow-gauge Vale of Rheidol Railway, which opened between Aberystwyth and Devil's Bridge in 1902 and provides wonderful scenery along the ride to the coast. This whole area boasts stunning scenery and wildlife and is renowned for walking, cycling, fishing and bird watching as well as trips to the beautiful Cardigan Bay coastline with its wild cliffs and sandy beaches.

Bookings must be a minimum of 48 hours before the start date of the Holiday.
