    “This property was amazing!”

    !! I couldn't recommend this more. Reactive dog friendly, enclosed garden with lots of space to explore and extra goodies for the dog on arrival *bed, blankets, poo bags, treats, ball thrower). The property was incredibly clean and well equipped with all you could need. The host welcomed us with a tray of goodies (hot choclate, crisp, drinks, sweets). The bed and pillows were so comfy.

    !! I couldn't recommend this more. Reactive dog friendly, enclosed garden with lots of space to explore and extra goodies for the dog on arrival *bed, blankets, poo bags, treats, ball thrower). The property was incredibly clean and well equipped with all you could need. The host welcomed us with a tray of goodies (hot choclate, crisp, drinks, sweets). The bed and pillows were so comfy. The hut was very warm with underfloor heating. Outdoor area is fab! The bath is lovely and relaxing with it being sheltered from the elements. I have recommended this to friends and I will definitely be rebooking!!

The property

Aberaeron 4 miles, New Quay 7 miles, Aberystwyth 20 miles.

Dragonfly Shepherd's Hut is a charming, one-bedroom holiday retreat resting on the outskirts of Oakford, near Aberaeron in Ceredigion.

Perfectly placed in a fabulous rural location, enjoying peaceful views of the surrounding Welsh countryside, this delightful dwelling welcomes a couple looking to make memories with a romantic escape to Mid Wales and the heart of Cardigan Bay.

Park up next to your new home-from-home, taking a moment to appreciate your beautiful new setting.

Admire the glistening waters of the pond before you head up the three steps into Dragonfly Shepherd's Hut.

Once inside, be greeted by a vibrant, tastefully-presented living space, comprising a kitchenette with two-ring induction hob and a fridge, a dining space with seating for two, and plush double bed where you and your partner can catch your precious rest once the sun has set.

A shower room invites you to indulge with a revitalising cleanse, whilst outdoors, you can find an outdoor bath, perfect for soaking in whilst you gaze up at the starry night vistas.

For an alfresco experience, make use of the outdoor kitchen, which houses a barbecue and outdoor seating, serving as a superb spot wherein to wine and dine as you plan the rest of your itinerary.

If you can tear yourself from your tranquil new base, lace up your shoes and jump in the car to explore your local region.

Make a beeline for nearby Aberaeron, a gorgeous 19th century harbourside town with its famous multi-coloured Georgian houses all lining along the seafront.

Continue along the coast, starting with an excursion to bustling New Quay, where you can tuck into local cuisine at a range of independent cafes and eateries and hop on board a boat trip out to see the resident bottle nosed dolphins in the Bay, before enjoying a calming amble along New Quay Harbour.

A drive further north will take you to Aberystwyth, with its picture perfect Victorian promenade and magical views of Cardigan Bay from atop Constitution Hill.

On your way back to base, call in nearby at the pristine National Trust site of Llanerchaeron - an 18th century estate with an ornamental lake and serene walled garden.

Make memories to last a lifetime in Mid Wales when you book Dragonfly Shepherd's Hut.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £50.

About the location

ABERAERON

Lampeter 13 miles; Aberystwyth 16 miles.

A pretty Georgian coastal town located between Cardigan and Aberystwyth with a lovely pebble beach and beautiful sea views. There is an abundance of shops with unusual gifts, great eating places and pubs, and a quiet little harbour to enjoy watching the boats come and go. Aberaeron is perfectly positioned to enjoy boat trips and watersports, or coastal and countryside walks and cycle rides. Short drives to Cardigan to the south, or Aberystwyth to the north offer more shops, craft centres, museums and cinema or theatre visits. A wonderful Mid Wales location all year round.
