On arrival you drive into a car park at the rear of some flats so a bit disappointing but don't let this put you off as the area and people are very welcoming.

The cottage is ideally situated close to the Teifi estuary. It is well furnished and very clean. The garden is gravelled but with shrubs around is pleasant to sit in and read a book, is not overlooked and gets sunshine most of the day. A good base to explore the surrounding countryside.

This cottage is perfect for two people. Every room is a good size and thoughtfully furnished.

This cottage / bungalow is well placed and has good back yard for doggies but we found it a bit depressing backing on to a car park for flats. It was cold and a bit dated and there was no real welcome within it not even a bit of cooking oil we had to buy all cleaning products apart from washing up liquid.
