“Great location, extremely helpful owner, very comfortable enjoyable stay will certainly come back again.”

“A truly magnificent spot, the views are what clearly makes this place as well as Anne & spot the dog who are always on hand to offer help & advice but at the same time leave you to get on with it without interruption.”

We experienced a problem with the external door & could not open it so had to use the french doors to get in & out. Reported it to Anne & a locksmith came to fix it the following day, no hassle!.. The cottage is in need of upgrade & some TLC in our opinion but non the less, it’s a comfortable cosy small cottage that had everything we needed. One gripe though - the shower was not hot enough & lacked power flow but that’s just us!.. It certainly wouldn’t deter me booking here again in the future.

“Fantastic quiet location with mind blowing view, watching seals and dolphins through the binoculars.”

Comfy and flexible garden furniture needed. BBQ needs TLC. Owner really approachable and friendly but also not invasive. Great stay. Thanks.

“Had a fabulous 2 weeks, very well looked after by Anne thank you”

James July 2021

“The location is beautiful and could not be faulted.”

Anne (the owner) was very welcoming, helpful and approachable, but gave you privacy and space. Some of the kitchen cupboards, shower and garden furniture could do with a bit of an upgrade, but other than that we had a great stay and would definitely go back.

- James, July 2021
John July 2021

“Great location, Ann the host was really friendly and offered advice about the area.”

Siobhan June 2021

“Lovely warm cosy cottage with spectacular sea views.”

The front of the house and window frames could be painted to give first impressions the wow factor . And to be able to have comfortable garden furniture and sun loungers

- Siobhan, June 2021
Ian June 2021

“Customers should be prepared for the last couple of miles to the property along the narrowest and steep approach road with tall hedgerows on either side.”

However, the view over Cardigan Bay from Cockshead Cottage more than makes up for that tiresome journey in and out to the property.

“Excellent cosy warm cottage with breathtaking views but it is not made clear how narrow the lane is and that there are some tight hairpin bends but when you get there it was well worth it .”

The owner is very welcoming and is always ready to help if needed and she never intrudes on your space .

- Sue, May 2021

The property

Situated high on a Pembrokeshire headland overlooking the magnificent Cardigan Bay and Cardigan Island, this delightful detached cottage enjoys an enviable position.

Dolphins are a regular sight in the bay.

The owners have made every effort to ensure that your comforts and needs have been catered for, both inside and outside the property.

Being just under a mile from the beach (less on foot), this really is an ideal holiday destination.

Cardigan is 4 miles away and offers a good selection of shops, eateries and galleries.

About the location

ST DOGMAELS

Cardigan 1 mile.

St Dogmaels is an ancient and tranquil village nestling peacefully around its ruined abbey at the mouth of the River Teifi on the totally unspoiled west Wales coast. One of its attractions is Y Felin, one of only two working watermills in Wales and retains the machinery installed in 1820. It is thought the mill was originally built by the monks of St Dogmaels' 12th century Abbey. The miller shows how the mill works and bread, flour and cakes can be purchased from the mill or you can enjoy tea and cakes and light lunches in the Coach House Café nearby. An award winning local produce market is held here every Tuesday and is well worth a visit. The village has a pub, a fish & chip shop, a Post Office, a cafe and a small museum at the abbey. There is also a pretty green and a millpond with ducks. Cardigan, a delightful ancient market town, is just over a mile away. This ancient town sits on the estuary of the River Teifi at the base of Cardigan Bay. Its unspoilt townscape and rich heritage provide a nostalgic backdrop to a thriving culture of arts and crafts, events and music festivals. Nearby is the wonderful Poppit Sands where you can relax on sunny days or enjoy invigorating walks in the cooler months, as well as exploring the beautiful Pembrokeshire Coast Path. St Dogmaels is the start or finish of the 186 mile Pembrokeshire Coast Path from St Dogmaels to Amroth. Visit Castell Henllys, the Iron Age Fort where everyone is encouraged to learn the ancient way of living, or visit the wonderful Shire Horse Farm to see how farming was before tractors. The Cardigan Bay dolphins can be seen off the bay on a regular basis and more active pursuits can be found at Cardigan Bay Active, including surfing, wildlife trips or coasteering. With scenic coastal, riverside and countryside walks and an array of other beaches and attractions all close by, this is a perfect holiday location all year round.

Note: The garden is not enclosed so please supervise your children and dog at all times.
Note: A cot and highchair can be provided but there is only space for the cot if one of the twin rooms is free.
Note: Please bring your own beach towels and cot linen.
