Penglanowen Fawr

Lovely cottage.

We wanted to get away somewhere peaceful and, sure enough, there was barely anything to be heard aside from the weather and the little stream outside. Having an easy supply of firewood with an honesty box was a nice touch, saved us a trip to the shops! And the TV had a great selection of stuff to watch when the weather was fierce. Just watch your head on the door frames! They're quite low!

The property is beautiful, set around 20 minutes drive from a main road, on a working farm.

My dog loved licking the cows through the fence in the garden. The cottage is a really good size with everything you could need. Very clean and and comfortable, I would love to stay again.

Lovely welcoming, comfortable, clean cottage in the remote Welsh country side, close enough to Aberystwyth for university run.

Beautiful walks, stunning views, lovely night sky. Few minor issues where addressed by the very helpful owner.

The key safe was dodgy as could not open on leaving and would not call a pack of Welsh cakes and the smallest bottle of milk a welcoming hamper.

However loved the cottage and the very friendly farmer neighbour. It was central to everything we wanted to visit.

Lovely, comfortable, homely cottage.

Lovely location very helpful owners the house is perfect

A lovely cottage in the middle of the Welsh hills.

Beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The perfect escape

Isolation of the cottage great.

Just a few things to let it down. Broken guttering meaning water from rain pouring out, blocked drain so washing up water didn't flow away properly. It appears the dishwasher wasn't working half used tablet from previous occupant still in it and didn't work when we tried, no instructions in kitchen drawer. Information folder needs updating some of the info months out of date. Freezer needs defrosting couldn't open top compartment. All that said we enjoyed ourselves and it served it's purpose of moving daughter into university for her final year..

Lovely property in a peaceful spot surrounded by the hills.

Lots of room in the accommodation. Clean and tidy. Everything we needed was supplied in the kitchen. The only one thing that took some getting used to was the shower. We always got it hot in the end but sometimes that was a bit by trial and error! Would definitely stay there again. Thank you.

Absolutely lovely cottage with amazing views.

It's a car drive to anywhere even a shop but if your like us and don't mind this, it's a beautiful place to stay. The only down side we found, we were unable to eat outside due to flies but the scenery and accommodation was fantastic especially for the dogs.

The property is quite remote and it took us a few days to get our bearings and understand the best routes to get to various places but that shouldn’t detract from the accommodation which was excellent.

The garden enclosure was great for our dogs and they thoroughly enjoyed the space. The WiFi signal was vey good and meant that we were able to stream and use various devices with ease. The facilities were also excellent and most essentials are provided. There aren’t many shops and pubs in the immediate vicinity so a car is essential but we enjoyed our break.

Had a very enjoyable stay.

The cottage is well equipt with every thing that you would need. Had those nice touches which made it homely. Very suited for families who like to get away from all the pressures of modern day life. A nice play area for children.The smart TV was vey handy to keep up with your favorite TV shows when it suited you. The only criticism we have is the lack of a handle on the over bath shower as it is not that easy to get out of the shower.

When we first got the property it was exactly what we wanted.

It's been updated since the pictures we saw which was lovely. To be in the countryside with Sheep surrounding us was just quiet and relaxing. We had a bit of trouble with boiler not working so we called the owners who got someone out to check the gas etc within an hour it was working again. Nothing was too much for them. It was an amazing stay and we will be booking again in the future.

Generally, a lovely place to stay & was very comfortable and homely.

Everything was there to make our stay great. Towels for everyone, hairdryer and a nice welcome book too! On the downside, In the front room, a more thorough vacuum was needed, right to the edges, there were some cobwebs and dead spiders in it. The blind in the bathroom looked like it needed replacing and the hoover needed unclogging to vacuum properly. The views were fantastic, the fire was beautiful, and the farmers we met, were friendly and happy to chat.

Hello - we loved your cottage and it had everything we needed for a comfy stay - thank you!

Lovely, homely and remote cottage, felt like home from home.

Would definitely recommend and will look at coming back in the summer with grandson!

Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Cosy well kept cottage in a beautiful setting not far away from Aberystwyth as my daughter is studying there. Ps wish the place was mine it is so good.

Nice and quiet.

Ideal for a total break from everything happening in the world outside. Diolch yn fawr

A beautiful setting ideal for an anxious dog as no other properties around and wonderfully peaceful.

Property was fabulous.

The setting was amazing. Beautiful and tranquil. Truly relaxing. Adults and teenagers loved it. Youngest child had lots fun on the swing. Had a chance meeting with the owner who was lovely, welcoming and helpful. Neighbour was also really friendly and kind. Would definitely hope to go back.

Beautiful cottage so peaceful and cosy

Absolutely beautiful cottage in beautiful surroundings.

Lovely and secluded just as we like it. Kids and both dogs loved the garden to run around and play and we enjoyed a coffee sat on the bench looking across the hills and all the wildlife. We have booked to go back in August.

Fabulous home, very relaxing stay, perfect to escape the fireworks from with the dog.

Everything u need is there. Maybe in need of some slightly bigger wine glasses

This cottage at first appearance is very nice and decorated to a good standard with new kitchen, however the cottage is suffering from rising damp and damp in general.

There was rising damp in the living room and damp running down the external stair wall at times. The bedroom window surrounds were damp and mouldy. A few times when getting into bed we found that the bed was damp. Yes the garden is lovely with amazing views and money has been spent on the cottage but unfortunately in the wrong places. If the damp issues were addressed this would be a lovely cottage in a beautiful location. Overall we were disappointed after reading the good reviews.

Thank you for a wonderful stay at Penglanowen Fawr!

The house is beautiful, cozy, fitted to a high spec, clean and really welcoming. Our kids loved the enclosed garden, as did the dog! We enjoyed meeting the sheep and the local area is stunning. Despite the grey weather and rain, we had a wonderful week walking, exploring and occasionally warming up by gorgeous fire. We would definitely recommend this cottage :-)

This lovely little cottage is tucked away along a single track road high up on a hillside.

It is a little rustic but well presented, The tranquility and views are amazing. The kids loved meeting the lambs and bullocks in the adjoining fields. We visited beaches from Aberdovey and Ynyslas down to Llangrannog and Mwnt. We also swam in the river close by in Llanilar and took the Rheidol steam train from Aberystwyth to Devils Bridge. A great week!

Lovely cottage in lovely surroundings, clean and comfortable would highly recommend

The cottage was beautifully presented and actually even nicer than the photos would suggest.

The location is amazing. The view from the garden in nice weather is amazing and there are plenty of good walks and cycle rides from the cottage door. We have a dog and even though the cottage is in sheep country, the cottage worked brilliantly with an enclosed garden and front yard.

Lovely farmhouse, tastefully decorated.

Beautiful, remote location. Do need to drive, wouldn't be able to walk anywhere and no nearby shops. Scenery simply beautiful. Track off road to house a bit tricky for average cars due to deep wheel channels, but we worked a way of driving to one side to avoid scraping the bottom of the car. Well equipped and comfortable - a real 'get away from it all' break. Garden a fabulous size although weather prevented us from sitting out. Good location for touring around and we visited places such as Newquay, Aberaeron, Borth, Aberystwyth and beautiful Aberdovey. We enjoyed lots of walking in this beautiful part of Wales.

We had a great time at Penglanowen Fawr.

The cottage was in a stunning location (very remote) but we love that, surrounded by farm land. The cottage was warm and cosy, decorated and maintained to a very high standard, with everything you would need to make it home from home.

Very nice place to stay and very clean.

our children were looking forward to the swings and sline in back garden which were not there on our arrival and were pictured in pictures. we did not see anywhere in booking that they would not be made available.

Lovely decorated cottage with views over the Welsh countryside.

we stayed here during lambing and the cuties were all over the surrounding fields. would like to recommend this cottage for walkers, people looking for a quiet holiday in beautiful Ceridigion. With special thanks to the owner for all her good care for us, thank you Sioned!

The cottage was fantastic.

It was more like a hotel with the provision of towels, tea towels, tea, coffee, sugar, milk and welcoming welsh cakes. Really nice lawn area for youngsters to play in. It was fantastically clean and the lady we met made us very welcome. We loved the remoteness and, as farmers, we were in our element surrounded by sheep and cattle. It was so quiet and dark. Excellent for star gazing. Good area to walk in and explore. Brilliant views. We loved it. Many thanks to the owners.

This cottage was really lovely, fantastic views, garden was very secure for our dog, the only thing I’d say is it’s a shame there isn’t a door that goes straight out into the garden so we could have left it open for him to go in & out when he pleased but it wasn’t a problem & for us wanting to go out for walks there wasn’t a great deal of walks around there so we had to travel further away but again not a real problem as you got to see more of Wales!

! I could not fault the cottage at all, it had everything you wanted, home from home, was very comfortable, peaceful & just loved it there.

We found the beds rather firm for us.

The welcome was lovely ,the house was clean. Garden perfect for dogs and children. If you like an isolated location as we do it is perfect.

Second time at this beautiful property, Sioned always a welcoming host, we love this place and will be back again.

peaceful and not too far from the beaches and places to see. Farmhouse is so lovely, great garden and such a cosy feel.

Beautiful cottage in a very remote but stunning location.

Loved it!

The cottage was superb as was the welcome, the owner had left essentials and treats for our arrival, it was a pleasant surprise to find milk, coffee and tea bags when we arrived along with Welsh cakes, In addition cleaning equipment and tea towels etc were also made available.

Without doubt this was the best welcome we have ever experienced when stopping in rented accommodation. The beds were very comfortable and the cottage was spotlessly clean. We met the farmer who was a really nice man and very friendly and welcoming. One helpful thing for dog owners would be the location of nearby dog walks.

This cottage was excellent,It was spotless comfortable and secluded but just 20 minutes from Aberystwyth great for kids with a big field behind with swings etc.

you must have a car but your only 20-30 minutes away from 3 resorts.One day the farmer bought the sheep off the hills for shearing and invited us to watch.Fabulous

The owners were very friendly and helpful, the cottage was lovely and so peaceful

Though it's in a remote location, Penglanowen Fawr had every comfort and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

Lovely kept cottage surrounded by fields and sheep.

very cosy and comfortable. Very relaxing. Surrounded by Gorgeous scenery.

It was the perfect holiday really relaxing and at the same time loads to do will be booking again

The cottage was truly perfect for our needs.

Both internally and externally in the garden, it had everything we needed and more. The children absolutely loved the garden and couldn't get over the space and toys (swing, wendy house, slide) and the benches etc for the adults were perfect for the evening. Inside, the cottage has three very good sized-rooms and everything you need to make your stay wonderful. We will definitely be returning.

Arrived to a surprise welcome hamper.

The cottage was very cosy and will definitely be recommending.

The property had all the elements we look for.

Dog safe garden area was very good.
