Property code: OC-P32779

Wake up to breathtaking views at this dreamy stone cottage in Cwmystwyth. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms and welcoming two canine companions, it’s the perfect choice for small families or groups of friends searching for a serene bolthole to call home while they explore the Welsh Valleys with their dogs by their side. During the day, head off to Devil's Bridge Waterfalls with your pups. These waterfalls have attracted countless visitors over the years, including the poet William Wordsworth. In the evening, come home to your garden to enjoy a BBQ feast while your pups run free in the enclosed space.

Park in your private parking spot (there’s room for two cars) and head to your cottage. Step inside and you’ll find a rustic-chic open-plan living/dining area with a wood burner and exposed wooden beams. Take two steps up to the country-style kitchen area and whip up some of your favourite dishes to enjoy at the wooden dining table. Alternatively, head out into the garden to share a fun BBQ together. Afterwards, take a relaxing dip in the hot tub on the covered patio, or make your way to the living area to relax by the wood burner while your pups sleep happily at your feet. At the end of the day, head upstairs and you’ll find two stylish bedrooms – a generous king-size and a cosy twin. A stylish shower room off the kitchen area completes the layout.

Tails are sure to wag when you grab your hiking boots and head to the Hafod Estate (2 miles) to explore the trails that weave through the woodlands and gorges. Alternatively, stroll along the Victorian promenade at Aberystwyth (16.5 miles) and then take the cliff railway up Constitution Hill – your pups are welcome on the railway free of charge.

The cottage is beautiful and was decorated for Christmas which felt very magical, especially as we had some snow whilst we were there. The hot tub area is great, would be perfect all year round. The host was very accommodating and made our stay perfect - would highly recommend.

Wow what a place. The cottage has everything you could want for your stay plus more! Weve never stayed in such a well equipped property. The attention to detail & comfort well exceeded our expectations, even dogs have their own welcome pack. The area is absolutely stunning with lots of places to visit, perfect for lots of walking. We recommend Read moreYffarmers for a roast but this was the only time we ate out so cant comment on anywhere else. We didnt want to leave and we will definitely be back again & again. If switching off & relaxation is your wish then this is the place for you. We cant recommend Penffynnon enough Hide
