Lampeter,Ceredigion Bay 4.6 miles.

Y Cwlwm, an immaculate single-storey Celtic roundhouse near Lampeter in Ceredigion Bay.

Perfect for couples seeking a romantic escape, this rural haven features a generously sized freestanding steel bath in a round summerhouse, perfectly placed to take in the sweeping views.

Winding gently down a quiet path, you arrive at a uniquely shaped, timber-clad retreat surrounded by open countryside and nearby meadows dotted with wildflowers.

Its curved silhouette and wooden-panelled exterior sit beautifully within the landscape, offering a sense of calm and quiet character from the moment you arrive.

Step inside and you’re welcomed by a thoughtful entrance — an armchair and book stand invite you to pause, perhaps flick through a few pages before settling in.

It’s a gentle introduction to a place designed for slow living and shared moments.

The open-plan living area is harmoniously arranged to keep each other close, whether you're following a recipe in the kitchen or listening to music as you unwind.

Soft, relaxing tones and wooden flooring run throughout, creating a calm and cohesive atmosphere.

In the sitting area, choose between watching TV or gazing out at the countryside from the comfort of the sofa — both offer their own kind of escape.

The bedroom continues the theme of tranquility, with a wooden feature wall and soft, muted colours that make it easy to unwind.

There's a comfy king-size bed and a en-suite bathroom tucked neatly behind the bedroom, for added comfort and convenience.

Above, Velux windows are perfectly placed for stargazing from bed, adding a quiet touch of magic to the evenings, while integrated blackout blinds ensure restful sleep whenever needed.

Wake to views across the landscape — a gentle reminder of the world outside, waiting to be explored.

Outside, the summerhouse offers a secluded retreat to soak in the scenery.

A striking 2-metre-long, extra-deep freestanding bath stands ready and is perfect for a steaming soak or an invigorating cold plunge.

Thoughtfully positioned, it invites you to unwind while taking in the countryside views.

Nearby, a patio invites you to linger over long, leisurely meals beneath the open sky — a space made for conversation, connection, and the simple pleasure of dining together.

Slow down, switch off, and reconnect at Y Cwlwm — your peaceful escape in the heart of the countryside.

The Maes Celt – Roundhouse Retreats offers a unique trio of single-storey Celtic roundhouses nestled on the peaceful outskirts of Lampeter, Ceredigion. Designed with couples in mind, each property features open-plan living, stunning countryside views, and inviting outdoor spaces — perfect for slow mornings, stargazing nights, and everything in between. Surrounded by meadows and rolling hills, this collection invites you to unwind, explore, and reconnect with nature. Whether you're soaking in a wood-fired hot tub, enjoying a soak in a freestanding bath with a view, or dining outdoors beneath the open sky, each retreat offers its own rhythm of rest.

The roundhouses at Maes Celt have been inspired by the heritage and history of the Celtic Fort located on the owner's land. Nestling at the foot of the south side of the fort, they draw on the sense of place and belonging that is unique, with their own wildflower meadows and fortress fencing creating a modern Celtic sanctuary in the wilds of Wales. The 9th-century Celtic stone from Caer Maesmynach, Llanfihangel Ystrad, is carved with an interlace pattern typical of early medieval Christianity. Standing tall, it may once have formed part of a Celtic cross or cluster of monuments linked to nearby Capel Sant Silin and Strata Florida monks. First recorded in 1808 and later noted in the 1878 Cambrian Archaeological Association report, the stone was moved in the early 1900s from Maesmynach to Castle Hill House, then to St Hilary’s Church, Llanilar, where it still stands. Scheduled as a monument in 1956, it remains a significant piece in understanding Wales’ early Christian heritage, even though removed from its original setting.

Head to Lampeter, the smallest and oldest university town in Wales, which is well worth a visit, with its charming streets lined with small, locally-owned shops that give the town its unique character. Just a short drive away, the 18th-century National Trust estate of Llanerchaeron offers a glimpse into Georgian life, with its dairy, laundry and pleasure grounds waiting to be explored. In Aberaeron, a colourful harbour town that is nearby, you can stroll the promenade with an ice cream in hand. In New Quay, join a SeaMor Dolphin Watching boat trip for a chance to spot dolphins and seals. For a deeper dive into Welsh heritage, the National Wool Museum brings the story of weaving to life through working looms and historic machinery. The Wales Coast Path and the nearby Cambrian Mountains also offer endless opportunities, from dramatic coastal walks and hidden coves to rugged trails and breathtaking mountain scenery.

When it’s time to eat, Aberaeron has a range of various restaurants, The Stubborn Duckling, Y Selar, Harbourmaster and The Hive, offering vibrant seafood and café-style dining just steps from the harbour.

From scenic drives and coastal towns to heritage estates and wildlife encounters, this part of Wales offers something for every kind of explorer.

Discover Maes Celt – Roundhouse Retreats, a stunning escape in the heart of Ceredigion’s countryside.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
