Property is in a good location with great outside areas. A stones throw from the town but the cottage was quiet and relaxing. Easy to get to other areas locally by bus. A great restaurant nearby The Stubborn Pig would I would highly recommend. Would definitely recommend this property as a good place to stay.

A really cosy, well equipped holiday home! Loved the balcony over the river - perfect for a G & T on a sunny evening! A peaceful spot, yet so close to shops and restaurants. The river walk was lovely. A few problems finding nearby parking, but, fortunately, the weather was fine so walking from the car park was ok.

Lovely, cosy cottage on the banks of the river. We spent time watching the ducks, ducklings, pigeons and a heron enjoying themselves in the water. Ideal location for exploring the town and only minutes away are the lovely coves and caves that make Ceredigion such a wonderful place to visit.

We had a great stay , the balcony overlooking the river was great and the river is tidal so that was amazing to see the river rise The heron visited twice a day had some fab photos. The cottage is central for Aberaeron. Had food in y Seler had a Chinese takeaway and fish and chips. All good. We used the Dyson heater as was a little chilly in the evRead moreening. The cottage was very comfortable and well presented. Spotlessly clean and the host was very helpful and lovely to speak to Hide
