“What a lovely cottage! Bank House ...”

What a lovely cottage! Bank House is the middle of a terrace of cottages but we never heard any noise from the cottages on either side. The facilities were wonderful and he rural setting was a big plus. It's only a few minutes drive from Newcastle Emlyn but it feels very secluded. The kitchen was excellent and my wife loved the gas hob (our teenage daughter was more impressed with the wi-fi for streaming videos). The cottage is in an excellent location for Cardigan and the coast (we had some lovely afternoons on the beach).

Great cottage to stay at. This was our second time at this cottage and hope to stay again next year. Home from home.

“The cottage was absolutely ...”

The cottage was absolutely delightfuĺ. In fact if were possible we would have taken it home with us!! The only downside was that the location was somewhat remote although even that was not that much of a problem. I would recommend this cottage to any group of 2 (plus dog). During our stay we managed some lovely walks, although ee did not manage to tire our dog overmuch. Highly recommended. And the welcome eggs and home made cakes were very welcome.

The property

Newcastle Emlyn 3.3 miles.

A quaint village cottage in the small hamlet of Capel Iwan in the undulating countryside of Carmarthenshire, close to the popular and thriving market town of Newcastle Emlyn with a selection of independent and antique shops and various little places to eat.

The cottage is a perfect retreat for couples or small families looking to explore the fabulous local countryside, yet being close to a bustling small town and just twelve miles from the beautiful sandy beaches of West Wales.

Set over two floors, there are two cosy bedrooms with a family bathroom.

This is a deceptively spacious property with lovely character features and with plenty of room to relax, with a well-equipped kitchen opening out onto the patio and a spacious dining area leading through to a cosy sitting room where you can snuggle up in front of the TV.

Outside, you can sit in the split-level courtyard-style garden and enjoy an early evening drink before popping into town for a bite to eat or perhaps planning the following day’s adventures.

The local town of Newcastle Emlyn is a popular hub of rural life, with fabulous little shops and cafes, and sits alongside the River Teifi which is renowned for fishing all the way down river through the pretty village of Cenarth with its popular waterfalls through to Cardigan and out into the bay.

You are ideally placed to explore the fabulous sandy beaches and craggy coves of Cardigan Bay with the popular villages of Tresaith and Aberporth just 12 miles away or perhaps take a trip a little further to the traditional seaside resort of New Quay and you may be lucky to catch a sighting of the resident dolphins from the harbour wall.

The area offers numerous outdoor activities including marine and wildlife spotting boat trips, coasteering and whitewater canoeing or fishing on the River Teifi.

To the south are the Preselli Hills with fabulous heathland terrain, perfect for walking and enjoying panoramic views.

You are also close to the beginning of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park which wraps around from the west to the South Wales coastline, opening up a myriad of opportunities for fantastic days out.

There are various National Trust properties, with the iconic white chapel and the beaches of Mwnt, the beautiful stretch of sand at Penbryn or the working estate at Llanerchaeron, all being between a 30-45 minute drive.

An idyllic village retreat, surrounded by undulating countryside, criss-crossed with footpaths, close to a popular market town, ideal for small families or couples looking to benefit from spacious living accommodation, partake in local outdoor activities or enjoy the nearby sandy beaches and coastal paths.
