This place is a hidden Gem. Absolutely peaceful, brilliant facilities, lovely interior design and what more could you want. We loved it and so did our canines. We would recommend this to anyone. Location perfect for travelling to where you elect to visit. Another positive is, Mat and Alic gave you every opportunity to contact them if required and nRead moreo meet and greet was actually really nice for a change. After a long journey it's nice to have everything set up and be able to sit down and enjoy your stay. The welcome present was fantastic too! A bottle procescco, Welsh biscuits, homemade brownies, dog treats and bread sticks. Perfect! We will return for sure Hide

We had a wonderful weeks stay during the very cold snap and snow of January 2025 and we stayed toasty warm with the wonderful log burner and underfloor heating. Being all on one level was easy with our 3 dogs and we enjoyed some lovely walks from the property. The location is not far from the town of Aberystwyth, which has everything you might needRead more. Visiting in early January meant some of the attractions in the area were temporarily closed, but a big highlight of our visit was to observe the starling murmuration at the pier at dusk. We would recommend a visit and if you prefer to stay at a more remote location on a working farm, then this was perfect. Hide

Great property with lovely views especially from the decking and hot tub. The welcome hamper was appreciated and, overall, we had a great holiday. However, the cleanliness of both the outside and indoor spaces could have been better and the wifi was limited and non existent on the decking - a booster is needed.
