This charming 1886-built cottage is in a remote location, offering magnificent mountain views right in the heart of unspoiled countryside. Perfect for groups of six and a faithful friend, this rural stay gives a cosy base from which to explore the Aberystwyth and the Pembrokeshire area.
Drive up a scenic gravel track via a fiord to a homely, traditional country cottage. Super snuggly nights await in the open-plan living room, where pillowy leather sofas and a glowing wood burner make for furry tummy tickles and chatting way into the night. Cook up family feasts in the well-equipped, rustic kitchen and take it to an ample-spaced dining table where you can admire mountainous views whilst breaking bread. When you want to watch the world go by, sip coffee in the peaceful window-surrounded porch area where two chairs allow guests to be amazed by the untouched countryside before them. Three upstairs bedrooms, a king, twin and bunk bedroom all have stunning views and a handy shower room sits just down the hallway. Surrounded by nature in every direction, your four-legged friend will find a plethora of places in the enclosed patio and terrace to sniff out the fresh air. Lakes and rivers surround the property, so please supervise the little ones, and keep an eye out for any wildlife that may pop up and say hi.
There are miles of wonderful walkies for your dog to take you on within the Cambrian Mountains, including Pumlumon, the highest peak within the range and can be spotted on your drive to the property. If you can pull yourself away from the captivating views, pull on your hiking boots and grab the dog treats and explore the Ceredigion and Carmarthenshire mountains. The pretty village of Tal-y-bont (8 miles) has a range of independent shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes, and even some dog-friendly eateries for the pup to enjoy a nibble or three. Heading southwest to the coastline of Aberystwyth, a beautiful seaside day out awaits, with a promenade serving seaside treats, donkey rides, fish and chips and tasty ice creams - there’s something for everyone.
Please note: The access road to the property is suitable for high clearance vehicles or 4x4s as there are both a stream and a river to cross. The owner can provide use of a 4x4 vehicle on request at a nominal charge for access to and from the property if this facility is required. At times the river can rise and be impassable so please be aware of this when bringing provisions.
