  • "We booked Sea Rose for 3 nights with our baby as a weekend away, but sadly we arrived at the property to find the heating off so it was freezing cold and took a while to warm up."

    The kitchen was dirty with unwashed coffee cups, an old dirty kettle and dirty oven. Unfortunately, the property wasn’t overly clean anywhere else and when we pulled out the highchair to use it too needed a good clean. The lack of any welcome pack made using the appliances difficult and we couldn’t access the wifi, although it barely ran the tv so probably wouldn’t have managed our phones as well. The bathroom door didn’t close which didn’t matter to us but should probably be fixed. The saving grace was the location, just 5 minutes outside of Aberporth, which had a gorgeous beach, great fish and chips, and a lovely pub! We won’t be booking this cottage again sadly and actually ended up leaving after 2 nights.

  • "Lovely cottage."

    Location not the best as its a fairly busy road with no pavement to walk into Aberporth and fairly steep coming back . We could have done with more info on working the Tv and what packages extra channels were available as we were unsure . Floor and some surfaces could do with more cleaning but as it was the end of the season that probably accounts for it . Towels , bedding all lovely quality and well decorated and finishing touches were lovely .Lovely welshcakes and fresh milk were appreciated .

  • "This small house is pleasant, reasonably well furnished and best of all, in a quiet country location; a bit of a ghost village actually, and a mile inland from the sea in Aberporth."

    It lies in the grounds of an expensive hotel where drinks at the bar might require a mortgage ! Unfortunately, when we arrived, a wheelie bin at the front door was overflowing with 6 or 7 weeks of rubbish stinking like a garbage dump. We complained and it was emptied 5 days later. Arriving after a 3 hour 30 minute drive to the property, we needed the loo. There was no toilet paper or kitchen roll provided. We complained and were directed to a shop which was a drive of 7 miles return. We had to buy our own loo paper and even our own salt and pepper. There were none of the normal ‘hospitality’ items - a few tea bags, coffee sachets, milk or anything else. Better introductory hospitality would only cost a pound or two. On day 1 the bathroom door jammed & could not be opened. The door lever/latch was not working. We spent 5 minutes crashing into the door to open it. Finally it gave way without damage. Since we could also have been locked into the bathroom, we stuffed a toothpick into the latch to keep it open until it is repaired. The availability of an adequate wifi signal was sporadic and slow. We could not use the catch-up TV and during the whole week I could only open my emails on my mobile phone. When it is working the internet speed is 29 Mbps. The property was devoid of instructions on e.g. the television or heating system, or when the rubbish is collected. There were no recommendations on local walks, shops or restaurants etc. (Tesco/Aldi in Cardigan). We like to keep a holiday let very clean, but there were no cleaning materials supplied. The good news is that following previous poor reviews the double bed mattress (firm) and the microwave have been replaced. Unfortunately when I removed the instructions from inside this new microwave in order to use it, they slipped down between the side of the fridge and the worktop. This does not prevent the microwave being used. Since the freezer compartment needs defrosting, when the fridge is turned off to do this, they can be retrieved. (Incidentally, when I logged in to the Sykes website, this property was not registered on my account, although 7 or 8 previous ones are still there).

  • "Lovely clean cottage."

    We had problems with the water system for the whole week. We would get hot water in the morning but nothing in the afternoon. Owners got a plumber out on Thursday 2 day before coming home they said nothing was wrong he changed the timer then we only got water in the afternoon hence we had several days of cold showers. Really not practical with a nine year old. Whole also love a folder with the history of the cottage and surrounding area.

  • "Needs double bed mattress replacing one side of mattress is very flat and has no support."

    Very uncomfortable. Microwave was very rusty so unable to use. Oven had not been cleaned and was also rusty in places. Did not use due to hygiene. Under the sink in the kitchen were dirty tea towels that where going mouldy. Also had to do some weeding and sweep patio area before use. The bench was rotting so therefore could not be used. During our stay someone did come and take the bench away.

  • "Booked three nights for two people at short notice."

    The property is nicely decorated, well equipped and well situated for exploring the coastline. We liked it. The double bed urgently needs a new mattress, so we slept in the two singles instead. The picnic bench on the patio has seen better days. It would be nice to change this to enable outdoor dining. Some updated instructions regarding rubbish disposal would also be helpful.

About the location

ABERPORTH

Tresaith 1 mile; Penbryn 3 miles; Llangrannog 5.5 miles; Cardigan 7 miles; Poppit Sands 8.5 miles; New Quay 15 miles.

Aberporth is a small town that sits on the southern edge of Cardigan Bay in Ceredigion, renowned for it's fabulous beaches that attract visitors, all year round. There are two beaches that sit between the rocky headlands of Trecregyn and Fathgarreg, separated by a smaller rocky outcrop. Uniquely, at low tide they interlink, but at high tide, they create individual beaches and create great rock pools for the children to play in and explore. Small boats, canoes, and kayaks can easily be launched from the north beach, while the south beach lends itself beautifully for a spot of sunbathing. Close to the beaches, there is a small seaside café, fish and chip shop, and a friendly pub serving good food and drinks. In the village itself, there is a range of shops and takeaway stores. Nestled directly on the famous Wales Coast Path, between the towns of Cardigan in the south, and Llangrannog and New Quay to the north, it is a great base for exploring this glorious stretch of coastline. Venture to Cardigan and discover the town’s many shops, tea rooms, restaurants, pubs, and bustling markets. Visit the nearby themed farm park, spot dolphins from the coastal path, or take a boat trip for the chance to see them up close! Aberporth is a great base for exploring this wonderful part of West Wales, with something to do for all the family.
