Lovely cottage in a quiet location. Near to the coast with lots to see and do. A soak in the hot tub in the evening is a nice way to finish off a day of walking or visiting local beaches.
carla
Amazing accommodation, great location, within easy reach of New Quay, Aberaeron, Mwnt. The weather wasnt particularly on our side but the accommodation provided plenty of entertainment for our kids in the pool and hot tub. Lots of things recommended by the host on our arrival including Aberaeron carnival which was fab. Thank you all.
Maxine
We loved it here and would thoroughly recommend. A very well equipped cottage with touches of luxury that made our stay very comfortable. We received a warm welcome and generous gift on arrival from the friendly owners who offered helpful tips on places to visit. The pool and table tennis provided lots of entertainment when we werent visiting the n earby beaches. Each evening we relaxed in the hot tub admiring the countryside views. It was so peaceful and the perfect place to unwind and relax.
Emma
We stayed with 2 children and a baby (family of 5). The children loved it- the eldest learned to swim without arm bands and the children loved looking at the animals on the farm. We loved the finishing touches: robes, candles, chocolates, flowers, Prosecco and much more! The property was extremely clean and has been maintained to a high standard. T he owners were so lovely and could not do enough for us. The utility room was great to store things in as well. I would highly recommended!
Dawn
What an amazing holiday home on a peaceful farm! There was everything and more you could possibly need for lazy days staying in or it was easy to access nearby Welsh villages. The owners are friendly and available if needed. Despite the rubbish weather we had a lovely relaxing week away
Paul

Close to beaches 5 star !
Elizabeth
Lovely New year break at the cottage-owners very supportive and helpful, well equipped cottage that is in private location but easy access ( by car) to other locations, restaurants and beaches
Jasvir
LOVELY CLEAN COTTAGE, SITUATED IN A WONDERFUL PART OF WALES. KITCHEN HAD ALL UTENSILS YOU REQUIRE; PLUS, OTHER ESSENTIALS ARE PROVED. THE HOST ARE A LOVELY FAMILY.
Gemma
Absolutely beautiful cottage, perfect for what we wanted, was so well equipped and such lovely friendly hosts. The only reason we knocked a star off for comfort was that we found the bed too hard and would recommend something more middle ground mattress wise ie not to soft and not to hard in the hope that this would keep most people happy. The pool was great but it would have been even better if it was heated, but we had been made aware it wasnt. The hot tub was fabulous especially at dusk.
Paul
The cottage, location and hosts were nothing short of amazing. The cottage is immaculate and presented to a very high specification. We loved the hot tub, swimming pool and tennis court. There are numerous places to go to which are a short drive away. I am missing the cottage already!
Emma
Myself, my husband and 3 children (5 years and under) stayed here for a week at the beginning of August. It was perfect for what we needed- plenty of space and facilities. We were wowed when we walked in- the photos do not do it justice. Everything is of high quality and clean. The owners are lovely and were very welcoming. Thank you for the great extras you left in the cottage. The outdoor pool was perfect for the children to cool off as we were lucky with the hot weather. We would recommend.
Sonia
Lovely. No problems what so ever
Rizwana
A very beautiful cottage and stunning location. We had everything we needed and would definitely recommend this place to others. We appreciated the finer touches like the fresh flowers and beautiful room sprays/candles around the home. The hot tub was amazing and I loved the utility room which was accessible at all times! The location was so privat e and was just what I was looking for: peace and relaxation.
Robin
A superb property
D
Excellent property, owners very friendly and helpful. Location ideal for visiting attractions from Snowdonia to the Breacon Beacons but with the coast and beaches on the doorstep. . The bonus of the hot tub at the end of the day was very welcome. We have no hesitation in recommending this property for a luxury peaceful holiday and intend to visit a gain in the future
Linda
My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the accommodation, the setting, the added bonus of the swimming pool and private hot tub, the warm welcome and helpfulness of our hosts was second to none. Truly, a wonderful experience from arrival to going home. There is so much to do in the area if you want to get out and about but equally a haven fir qu iet reflection if that's what you need.
Jonathan
To start with the hosts was amazing, nothing was a hassle for them, we went with our young children and they could not wait to jump in the pool and the host said swim when you like no problem. As for the cottage it's modern, very clean, loads of space and had everything you could need. The hot tub was a favorite for me and the kids as well as the t ennis court. It's out the way but then not to far away from the sea side towns and villages. We would definitely recommend and will return ourselfs
Julie
Great modern cottage in a lovely quiet location. Very well equipped with top quality furnishings and everything you could need and more. Loved all the little extra touches and friendly welcome thank you. Relaxing holiday discovering the area and then soaking in the hot tub on return to the cottage.
Eva
We stayed at Welsh Cob Cottage for about a week and we felt so relaxed. It is easy to get to Lampeter, Aberaeron, New Quay and even Aberystwyth. We loved all the facilities - especially the jacuzzi! Wed recommend it to anyone!
Cara
Lovely cottage, very high spec, very comfortable, very peaceful location. Spent a week here with kids and managed to find something to do every day and came back to relax in comfort every evening. Pool isnt heated, so unless the weather is warm give it a miss. Tennis is a great touch. Cant fault it. Very highly recommended.
Charnjit
Had an amazing 4 day break here, greeted, by the lovely owners when we arrived. Loved the little special touch of fresh flowers, chocolates and Prosecco. Cottage was clean, well maintained and had everything you needed. We enjoyed the peacefulness and privacy is not a worry. Will certainly be back and will recommend to others. Thank you x

Hi there, we just wanted to say thankyou for providing such a beautiful place for us to be able to stay at. The cottage was spotlessly clean, immaculate with really lovely quality touches of towels, bath robes, fragrant room sprays, not to mention your generosity with a bottle of fizz.
