  • "Stunning building and location which is let down by the cleanliness and finishes."

    We had a wonderful stay over New Year however there was a lot of dust and dirt on the floors and surfaces and loads of flies (dead and alive) which made it feel unclean. The bedding was clean but the towels were all musty smelling and needed washing before we could use them. There was plenty of crockery and cutlery and everything you need for your stay which was nice. The glasses needed washing before use. Plenty of bins for waste and recycling but we couldn't find any outside bins to put them in and no instructions left for us. The games tables are a nice touch and we're appreciated by our teenagers. Beds were all comfortable but the finishes in the upstairs rooms compared to the downstairs areas are poor. The walls are thin and you can hear each other and people using the toilet and shower. Bathroom was nice with everything you need and a powerful shower. Nice quiet area with shops not far away. Overall we enjoyed our stay but felt it was let down by the cleaning and finishing touches which could easily be addressed by the owner.

    Hi Thank you for your feedback, were glad you had a wonderful stay and enjoyed your time. We are so sorry that you didn't contact us during your stay, we pride ourselves on high standards of maintenance and cleaning and we often have comments about how clean the place is. Our cleaner only lives 5 mins away, so it's a shame you didn't contact us as we could have rectified any concerns. Regarding the bins our cleaner sorts the bins, but thank you for your feedback , we will make sure bin instructions are clearer for future guests. Were glad you found the beds comfy, and enjoyed the powerful shower and you had everything you needed for your stay. Thank you for your comments about the stunning building and location. Thanks Ellie Property Owner

  • "A fantastic holiday home!"

    The first impression when you walk through the door gives a true "WOW" moment, as you gaze at the vast and beautiful space. The host, Dorothy, has made everything available that you could think of and you are left wanting for nothing. It was clean, well maintained and wonderfully cozy when we arrived. Truly, a great get away which we are tempted to return to in the near future. Thank you so much for having us for the week in this fantastic space.

    Hi Thank you for your lovely comments, were are so glad you had a fantastic time and look forward to you booking with us again in the future. Thanks Dorothy Property Owner

  • "The listing states this is a wrap around garden which it is not."

    As I was taking dogs thought it was a secure garden but it was shared with the flat attached to the church and thr gate was open so had to watch the dogs at all times when outside. Part of the wall was down so the dogs were able to get onto the busy road and the grass banking in parts was nearly up to the top of the wall and the dogs were able to get onto the wall, therefore had to be kept on leads when outside. There was no ariel for the TV until Sunday afternoon which is not ideal and then we had to pick it up from a shop in the next village.

    Hi, following the storm which caused the wall damage, this has now been completely rectified. We have a new wall and lovely new gate and drive area, with a new patio area as well. We always advise that all gates should be shut at all times, and they are easily able to be closed if open. Thank you for calling me about the ariel missing , I was so pleased I could get a new one delivered out to you so quickly within 24 hrs and we are sorry that it wasn't in place when you arrived. After your stay we found the ariel under the bed upstairs so now we have a spare. Thank you Ellie Property Owner

  • "We had a fantastic stay, the accommodation was roomy, clean and had great facilities."

    We would definitely stay again and recommend to friends and family! Would have appreciated some sort of welcome pack with instructions for heating, facilities/equipment, the local area and what we needed to do when we leave eg bins, dirty linen etc.

    Hi Thank you for your feedback glad you had a fantastic stay, we would love for you to stay again. We have updated the instruction booklet, following your feedback. Our cleaner sorts the bins and linen and we've made this clearer for future guests. We also have a lovely new driveway and gate on the front and patio area. Plus a new pool table, and brand new king size bed upstairs, so look forward to you booking again with us and thank you for the recommendations to your friends and family.

  • "A very unique property for a perfect family getaway."

    Very spacious and the open plan layout downstairs was brilliant for allowing interaction amongst each other. The underfloor heating was an added bonus and the games tables kept the children and adults entertained for hours on end. Plenty of seating areas all throughout and ample space in the well designed kitchen. Two very spacious bedrooms and a nice cosy third. Spacious bathroom with fantastic shower. Located in an easy to get to spot with enough off road parking. The property is very well maintained and beautifully renovated We had a fantastic time with 6 of our children and we would definitely stay here again in the future

Church Llygad y Dyffryn is perched in a wonderful location with an array of attractions and towns within reach.

Travel to the nearby village of Brynhoffnant, where you can stock up on all your self-catering essentials or enjoy an evening away from the kitchen with food at the New Inn Ceredigion.

If you’re looking to make the most of the coast during your getaway, head down to the National Trust Penbryn Beach, where you can enjoy strolls along the golden sands and bask in beautiful views across Cardigan Bay; if you’re lucky, you may even spot dolphins or porpoises that call these waters home.

Tresaith Beach is also close by and is dog friendly.
