Conveniently located for exploring the Ceredigion coastline and countryside, this converted barn is a real pack-pleaser, with a dual-aspect wood burner in its stylish social space. Let the dogs take the lead as you enjoy rural rambles from the doorstep. For a sniff of sea air, Aberystwyth is just 4 miles away.
Pull onto the driveway and pause to admire the far-reaching field views before depositing coats, boots and doggie gear in the entrance hallway. The heart of the home is a spacious lounge/kitchen/diner with wooden floors and a contemporary feel. A striking dual-aspect wood burner in a stone fireplace steals the scene, adding a warm ambience to the lounge and dining areas. While the dogs stretch out on either side, you can unwind on a choice of soft seating to watch TV, or gather at the table for tasty home-cooked meals and lively conversation. The kitchen has bold-coloured cabinets and all the essentials for effortless self-catering. A handy shower room completes the ground-floor layout. Upstairs the three king-size bedrooms each have sloping ceilings and a zip-and-link bed which can be made up as twins on request. A family bathroom ensures convenience for all. For a sniff of fresh country air simply step out into the patio garden, which is edged by trees and enjoys lovely views across the surrounding countryside.
Shop for supplies, stroll along the Victorian promenade and visit the iconic castle ruins at Aberystwyth. Further north Borth Beach (7 miles) is the county’s longest and has sections which are pet-friendly year-round. Alternatively, drive south along Cardigan Bay and Aberaeron (16 miles) has a pretty harbour, Regency buildings and a fine choice of craft shops. For adventures inland, sniff out the wooded gorge and nature trails at Devil’s Bridge Falls (10 miles).
