Property code: OC-WAT303

Bursting with country cottage character and retaining plenty of charming original features, this endlessly cosy and rustic 18th-century cottage is the ultimate romantic bolthole to explore the countryside at the heart of West Wales and the enchanting Cardigan Bay coastline.

After meandering around your superb surroundings, follow the inviting warmth of the wood burner into the charming lounge/dining room which beckons you to unwind on the comfy sofa and soothe weary walking muscles beside the impressive, exposed stone inglenook fireplace. Before the sun sets, follow the welcome underfloor heating to the quaint farmhouse-style dining table nestled beneath the stairs to plan tomorrow’s big adventure. Grab the local produce you’ve collected and head into the well-equipped cottage kitchen to rustle up a delicious hearty meal. Be transported to centuries past by climbing the staircase to the romantic en-suite double bedroom that features a stunning A-frame beam and original exposed stone chimney breast. Breathe in the fresh, clean countryside air by dining alfresco on the patio area, before rambling around the owner’s extensive 1-acre grounds featuring a trickling pond and several seating areas to unwind.

Nestled within the stunningly beautiful Teifi Valley, the historic market town of Newcastle Emlyn 5 miles away is packed full of an eclectic mix of independent shops, restaurants and pubs all showcasing the best local produce this area has to offer. Straddling the Ceredigion and Carmarthenshire border, there are countless wonderful walking trails to join around Newcastle Emlyn and the surrounding villages, plus opportunities for canoeing along the River Teifi. For a traditional bucket and spade day at the seaside, the breathtaking beaches of Mwnt, Penbryn and New Quay lining the idyllic Cardigan Bay coastline can all be reached less than 20 miles away.

Thanks again for a lovely stay. The cottage is lovely, well equipped and in a very peaceful location. The grounds are amazing and having an opportunity to see the pictures of how the house and gardens were developed shows a true labour of love by Pixie and her family.

Very peaceful setting in beautiful surroundings. A garden paradise with interesting areas to explore or relax in. Llengeler is within easy reach of many interesting places along the west coast. The owners are delightful and made our stay very special. We hope to be able to return in the not too distant future.

The heating and hot water was stated as included but was in fact controlled by the owner in the adjoining property. This was not a problem but in the winter months could be a bit awkward. The property only had one means of escape from the building. I would suggest a fire door should be fitted between the kitchen and the entrance door. None of the Read moreupper floor windows were labelled as emergency exit windows I would suggest clear labels be shown on escape windows if they can be used as escape windows. I do not recommend holiday destinations or cottages to friends or family as my idea of a good holiday may not be someone elses idea of a great holiday. Hide
