What guests are saying
Great communication from the hosts.
Place was peace and quiet. Always responded when asking even a general enquiry. Plenty off space for the dog to run around, highly recommend people to stay here.
The best holiday accommodation we have stayed enjoyed in over 30 years of booking week long breaks.
The property is very private - ideal for 2 adults and a dog and everything is of a very high standard and the attention to detail was outstanding. A very restful stay and exactly what was needed to reggae the batteries and relax.
We had a wonderful four-night stay at Yr Awen.
It was quite a long journey for us — around four and a half hours — but it was absolutely worth it once we arrived. I was initially a little concerned about a gap underneath the gate, as our Patterdale Terrier is something of an escape artist! However, after sending a quick message to Nicola, the owner, this was quickly rectified, which we really appreciated. Yr Awen is a beautiful and unique place to stay — a modern interpretation of the ancient roundhouses, set within the grounds of an Iron Age fort. The accommodation was comfortable and very well equipped. The bed was comfy, the shower was amazing, and the kitchen had everything we needed, including a small dishwasher and fridge with an ice box. There was also a small TV, although we were far too busy enjoying the surroundings to use it! The gardens were huge and perfect for our Patterdale to explore. The views from the large windows were absolutely stunning and even better when sitting outside in the evening or relaxing in the wood-fired hot tub. I went in the hot tub every night — even in the rain! The wildlife and surroundings were a real highlight. We enjoyed watching the beautiful horses in the field below, as well as cows and plenty of birds, including numerous red kites. A heron also appeared to have a favourite spot by the river and could be seen there every day. At night, we could hear the owls and foxes, which added to the peaceful atmosphere. During our stay, we visited two National Trust properties and particularly enjoyed the Roman gold mine. We also spent a day walking part of the coastal path, where we were lucky enough to spot a seal. Lampeter is only around a 10-minute drive away and has some great takeaway options. We had pizza from Marco's and a curry from Shapla Tandoori, both of which were delicious. The only small suggestions we would make would be perhaps providing a clothes airer or somewhere to hang wet walking clothes, as well as somewhere convenient to hang towels and clothing when using the hot tub. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend Yr Awen to anyone looking for a peaceful, unique getaway surrounded by beautiful countryside, wildlife and history
