Cwt Y Gors Reviews

This was our second time staying. It is simply perfect, peaceful and beautiful.
Peaceful stay just what we needed would recommend we will be 100 returning next year
Jeanette
It was a great experience and a fantastic shepherd's hut. We loved being there and will definitely book again. If there is one thing that we could mention is that there wasn't an ice tray in the fridge and we couldn't find one in the draws. As we stayed during a very hot weekend we could have done with ice to keep our drinks cool. It's not a criticism and definitely didn't spoil our stay, we loved it. Thank you
The hut and view were incredible. It was clean and also had little treats upon arrival which was a lovely touch. My only little suggestion would be a small air con unit as the hut itself gets very, very warm on the hotter evenings and our pup was getting overly warm hot but not a huge thing. We enjoyed watching Ally I believe the dogs name heard up the sheep to move them and seeing all the cows on our morning walks. We loved everything about the location and would 100 go again.
Amazing property. Well situated with great views. Ideally located for exploring a really lovely part of Wales. If that's not enough the owner's were really kind and helpful. Absolutely going to book this again.
Michael
3 times we have been here and 3 times it's been fantastic to be part of this ... 3 times we have been here and 3 times it's been fantastic to be part of this amazing place, the family that run this place are so lovely always on hand if there's any problems, we took our dog with us this time and even blue our dog loved it, it's a place to relax and just look out into a different world, so myself and my wife would like to say thankyou from the bottom of our hearts for this amazing place and it is really an amazing place, take care x
Stephen
Loved the shepherds hut and location is superb. Great place to stay especially with our little dog, great place for walking. We enjoyed the visiting heron every morning. Cracking hot tub, we went in the hot tub late one night to watch the stars!!
Katherine
Fabulous shepherds hut not like any other shepherds hut Ive stayed in before. .its so luxurious looking out on to amazing views. Weve had a really relaxing holiday and would highly recommend our two little dogs loved it too
Gareth
Wow Wow Wow This place is stunning. Spent an amazing week at Cwt Y Gors, the place couldnt be any better . Beautifully decorated and exceptionally well equipped a real away from it all paradise. The views are so stunning you rarely want to go out, however we managed to tear ourselves for some wonderful day trips. The Lime Crab at New Quay is a must for the best fish and chips ever so good we went twice . Devils Bridge and Aberystwyth red kite centre are also great days out. Then back to hut for lovely hot tub and more looking at the view. Couldnt recommend this place enough, we hope to be back soon
Alison
On arrival we were pleasantly surprised. The views are amazing & the photos do not do the hut or position of the hut any justice. There is everything you could ever need inside the hut or shed, the owner has thought of everything. Quite a spacious hut really. The hot tub is just the added extra to relax in. Will definitely return.
A great stay for peace, quiet, relaxation and amazing scenery and walks with a hot tub soak at the end of the day! ! The hut is exactly as described, well kitted out. The bed is so comfortable and the WiFi strong and speedy you need music when relaxing!! but more needs to be made of the surrounding countryside and old railway walk Im taking my bike next time!
This get away was simply stunning! The place was amazing with good views! And plenty of things to do around the area it was magical! Will defo look at coming back asap!
It was our second visit didn't disappoint us it's just the peace and quiet views ...

A stunning property in a beautiful location. Everything we could have wished for and more for our first wedding anniversary.
A very nice shepherds hut, good ammenities, super hot tub, beautiful surroundings, a very good set up for a quiet week away for two, and the dog. Thank You
Christine
The shepherd hut was lovely, in a beautiful place, couldn't fault it at all, Dorian was so helpful as well, unfortunately our epileptic dog went into cluster seizures the first evening and then again the following dinner time which we couldn't bring her out of so we had to come home to be near the vet in case we needed to get her there urgently, Dorian was helpful and supportive and suggested we contact yourselves and a partial refund which of course you refused which I why I wouldn't recommend you again.
Really enjoyed staying here for a relaxing couple of nights for a 40th. The hut was in a beautiful location and was close to local tourist places which werent too far of a drive. Our pup loved having the sheep to look at
Exceptional! What a great place to stay and enjoy a birthday weekend. The views are great, and the luxury hut with a hot tub is a dream. We have decided to buy a hot tub now !
Leanne
The location is beautiful. It was lovely to see the wildlife and the hot tub was really relaxing. The hut was lovely although it does get really warm. The bbq was great.
Rachael
An amazing shepherd's hut in a wonderful location. Have stayed twice and looking forward to our next visit.
Beautiful hut with beautiful surroundings and very reasonably priced. We will most definitely be visiting again in the future.
Beautiful break just 2 minor issues the lights never worked along the fence there is exposed bare wires and the hot tub was a bit of a nightmare to turn down. But perfect break just nature and more

Emily-jane
Probably the best place we have ever stayed. Utterly stunning place, so clean, so comfy. Only tiny thing we both said was about the power of the shower, bit of a trickle really. Other than that, no faults. Just wonderful and we will most definitely be back!!!!
Absolutely beautiful property and views, owner incredibly friendly when asked for some information on the property and locations to visits. Myself and my partner enjoyed so much so, that we have rebooked for this year. Looking forward to returning.
Daniel
Fantastic location and hut. Clean and equipped with what we needed for a more relaxed break. Outlook was amazing. Thank you and we will return in the future.
Stunning views from gorgeous clean and well stocked accommodation. We arrived to the heating on and a lovely gift basket of local goodies. Our week away was the perfect way to relax in a peaceful setting with good take aways and shop only 15 mins drive away. The owners were lovely, communicated and conscientious about us travelling in the bad weather. Would definitely recommend and will book again.
The most amazing secluded short break weve had. The hut was just perfect and location fantastic. Could have stayed for so much longer and definitely booking to returned as soon as we can. The welcome basket a lovely touch and hot tub just heaven.
Absolutely loved our stay! The hut, the hot tub and the location were amazing and we will most definitely be back. Ive recommended it to my friends and some of them have already booked a stay! Would 150 recommend, its so worth it!
Philip

The property was lovely. Nice little touches with the welcome basket and bath robes. Was completely contact free, very peaceful and lovely views. Will be back again.
