Cariad Cottage is in an idyllic location. Very rural and peaceful. The views are stunning from up there. If you like remote country roads, lots of trees and rolling hills, this is for you! The Cottage itself is well equipped for a weeks holiday for two. It is cosy and comfortable, whatever the weather. There are plenty of country walks, castles andRead more parks nearby. We visited Aberglasney house and gardens, which are beautiful. They also served the best vegan jaffa cake! Hide
