Reasonable sized rooms, efficient heating so cosy. Nice quiet village but further from Aberdovey than expected. Need to drive everywhere, we were unfortunate with trains not working while we were there. Nice local pub close by but found the cottage too dark and cluttered for our liking. Amazing beaches and scenery in each direction from village.

A really enjoyable stay in a good location close to several coastal towns, with an easy walk to the local beach, Cottage is cosy and suited us well as we were a couple with 2 dogs. Fire is great (no pun intended!) Garden is fenced all the way around which was essential for us. Wi-fi worked well.

The house is very well equipped as are week went in we just kept finding things for our use. Large fridge freezer for a small house (sized for 4 people) Spare bedroom used for storage which is really handy. Great neighbours, pub 26 paces away. Local shop with all of those necessities.
