Description

Secret Garden Cottage sits within beautiful gardens on an organic farm, just half a mile from the Llanerchaeron National Trust estate and a short drive from the charming Georgian harbour town of Aberaeron on Cardigan Bay.

This stylish retreat is perfect for a relaxing escape, with a wood‑fired hot tub (available at an extra charge) and an external sauna adding to its appeal. If you enjoy gardens, countryside views, log fires, spacious living and coastal scenery, this is an ideal place to unwind.

Tucked away in a peaceful setting, the cottage feels instantly welcoming. The kitchen and dining area offer a warm, sociable space, complete with an original inglenook fireplace, cast iron woodburning stove and bread oven. The main sitting room centres around a second woodburning stove, with a large corner sofa for cosy evenings, while a separate snug provides a quieter space to relax with a Smart TV.

There are two flexible bedrooms: a twin that can be made into a super king with its own en suite bath, and a spacious family room with a king size and single bed. A modern walk‑in shower room, separate cloakroom, fast WiFi and a washing machine add everyday convenience.

Outside, relaxation takes centre stage. Enjoy the optional hot tub under open skies, unwind in the sauna, or make the most of the large oak‑decked area with barbecue. The extensive grounds include a French‑style courtyard with badminton and pétanque, a picnic area, and even a small gym with weights and a rowing machine.

Right on the doorstep, you’ll find a two‑acre historic walled garden, riverside walks, woodland trails and access to the wider Llanerchaeron estate, plus a restaurant and bar just a ten‑minute walk away.

Further afield, explore the beaches and dolphin‑spotting trips in New Quay, the dramatic Pembrokeshire coastline, or the landscapes of Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, known for its waterfalls, hiking routes and Dark Sky stargazing. Perfect for both restful breaks and wellness escapes, Secret Garden Cottage offers a wonderful blend of comfort, character and countryside charm.

Secret Garden Cottage is delightful, it was lovely being in such a nice, large and historic building, I loved the pieces of antique furniture too, they so suited the setting.

Having lived in houses of similar age it was a walk down memory lane too. We are local and just wanted a small break, so we happily stayed on site, with wanders down to the delightful gardens that are just a short walk away. Comfortable, clean, friendly hosts, we would happily go back, and as local people we might. A few minor - very minor - things, the kitchen could do with a few basics, for example there was no salt, not a hanging offence, but a little 'point'. And no visitors book that we could have scribbled our delight about the property in. Honestly a really lovely place, one of the nicest places my partner and I have ever stayed in.

I had to unblock 2 upstairs sinks and 2 toilet seats were wiggly.

Absolutely no kitchen necessities (salt and pepper, kitchen roll, tin foil etc).Cupboards were bare. Many saucepans don't have lids that fit, and there is a lack of cooking dishes. Eleanor was kind enough to lend me a lasagne dish. Solid oak floorboards. Beautiful solid oak doors I've never seen the like of. Plenty of space. A lovely lounge and importantly a really comfortable bed. No books or dvds so bring your own. Some puzzles. Key was in the door. Didn't see the owners til midweek but they were there if we needed anything. All in all, wonderful now we know what's not there, we will bring next time.
