    “Having read some of the reviews we were not expecting much, yet at the price we paid for Half Term week for 4 adults, 4 children under 11, a baby and a cockapoo, we think it represented excellent value for money.”

    In response to previous reviews:- The hot tub isnt under cover (you're wet anyway) but more importantly there were covers on the filters and we used it with the kids without incident. The decking was clean however could do with non slip matting for icy mornings. The games room is not heated and partially flooded in heavy rain (but that added to the kids enjoyment) and there was no evidence of bird poo anywhere. Bring your own set of darts if you're a player.

    In response to previous reviews:- The hot tub isnt under cover (you're wet anyway) but more importantly there were covers on the filters and we used it with the kids without incident. The decking was clean however could do with non slip matting for icy mornings. The games room is not heated and partially flooded in heavy rain (but that added to the kids enjoyment) and there was no evidence of bird poo anywhere. Bring your own set of darts if you're a player. The cottage was toasty warm so we only used the log burner on our first night (fire lighters and logs provided but no kindling or lighter/matches so used our own. I'm sure the owners would have dropped some round of we'd asked). The washing machine and tumble drier work. Sleeping arrangements worked for us although we used one of our mattresses from our campervan on the single futon because our grandson complained that it was uncomfortable. There was only one key however as we were doing everything together it wasn't an issue for us. We visited Llanerchaeron (in a deluge - even the pigs were indoors), did a treasure trail, saw dolphins and ate chips outdoors in New Quay (in wintry sunshine), and went on the Vale of Rheidiol railway from Aberystwyth in strong winds and freezing temps. We had access to the tree house and the grounds around the ponds and would've used more if the weather had been better.... The intermittent WiFi meant the kids had to play with us and each other instead. There's a piano! Shannon's review January 2025 is spot on. Knowing that it wasn't perfect meant we were at ease with the kids. We did an online shop for delivery on the first night and included cleaning/laundry products, toilet rolls, kitchen towel etc so had everything we needed. Bring wellies, waterproofs, colouring books, board games (we brought an escape room game and Outsmarted), and a sense of humour, for the weather, the mud and the shower in the wet room. Would we return? Everyone agreed, absolutely!

The property

Cilcennin 1.7 miles.

A welcoming detached cottage in a quiet countryside location in Cilcennin near Aberaeron and set in the grounds of the owners' home.

The owners of this superb Aberaeron holiday cottage have created a property and patio which can be enjoyed by all, whether fully able-bodied or in a wheelchair, thanks to the ramped entrances, wide doorways and ground floor bedroom with en-suite wet room.

A large welcoming sitting room, where you can cosy up in front of the woodburner and enjoy family meals around the table, is the first room you discover as you enter your Aberaeron cottage.

Then, wander through into the well-equipped sunny kitchen before stepping out onto the large decked patio where you will find the hot tub.

Many relaxing hours can be enjoyed right here, before retiring to one of the charming Aberaeron cottage bedrooms to enjoy a good night’s sleep.

As well as the superb ground floor bedroom, there are three more delightful bedrooms on the first floor of this Aberaeron cottage.

Two have their own en-suite, while the third has a Jack-and-Jill en-suite, accessed from the bedroom and the landing, so serving the fourth bedroom too.

All bedrooms in this Aberaeron cottage have TVs with DVD players, so everyone can enjoy their own programmes.

This wonderful Aberaeron holiday cottage will invite you to stay longer, and when you leave you will probably be already planning a return visit.

Note: This property can be booked with Ref: 1069326, together sleeping up to 23 guests.

Tynewydd Fields

Situated within the owner's idyllic grounds are two amazing properties, both offering fantastic wheelchair friendly amenities and relaxing hot tub facilities. Both cottages are perfect for a large group celebration, boasting accessible entrances, doorways, and bathrooms, as well as the opportunity to roam around the serene grounds which hosts a range of animals, and a shared park to entertain the kids. Set in such a quiet location, you will have an ideal opportunity to relax and unwind in among the Aberaeron beachfront or along the countryside lanes, where scenic walks and cycling can be enjoyed over to Cross Inn's village shop and local pub to stock up on amenities. For the fishermen in your party, the owner has two lakes for fun fishing and there is a fishing complex right next door to the cottages. Explore the beautiful coastline just 5 miles away, and especially the famous coast path and its hidden coves along the way, spending a classic day at the Welsh seaside or trying your luck at watersports. Venture over and immerse yourself in local culture, visiting the National Trust property of Llanerchaeron which dates back to the 18th century, whilst the vibrant town of Cardigan boasts a 12th century castle, the St Dogmaels Abbey, and charming Cardigan Guildhall Market. Spend a day at the ancient market town of Aberystwyth, home to the inspiring Vale of Rheidol Railway and National Library of Wales, or delight in one of the sandy havens along Cardigan Bay including New Quay, Cwmtydu, Tresaith, Llangrannog and Penbryn. Gather with your loved ones for a group celebration in this exciting corner of Wales.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
