Snaptrip says
Dewi Villa is a spacious and well-equipped property, appreciated for its proximity to the beach and secure garden for dogs. Guests enjoyed the comfortable rooms, each with an en-suite, and the property's suitability for large groups and multi-generational stays. The open fire and sea views from the garden were highlights, contributing to a pleasant holiday experience.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found the property clean, particularly the bathrooms and kitchen. However, some noted dust, dog hair, and a stale smell upon arrival. The garden was well-received, but there was an instance of a used glass left outside.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the beach and coastal walks, with secure parking and easy access to nearby Aberaeron. Some guests mentioned noise from the main road and difficulty with the steep driveway, but these were minor concerns compared to the overall convenience and scenic views.
Guests were very satisfied with the comfort of the property, highlighting the comfortable beds and pillows, and the effective heating and hot water. The presence of en-suite bathrooms in every room added to the comfort level, despite some minor issues with flickering lights and a cold room.
The property is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, and guests enjoyed the open fire. Some maintenance issues were reported, such as masonry falls, a flickering light, and a freezer door that didn't seal properly. The steep driveway was challenging for some, and there were mixed comments about the garden's security for dogs.
While guests appreciated the Christmas decorations provided by the owners, there are not enough references to gifts or additional thoughtful touches to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such personal touches, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.
About this property
Just a 2 minute walk from Aberarth beach and the 870-mile-long Wales Coast Path, this three storey Georgian villa makes a great holiday base. There is accommodation for 8 guests in 4 bedrooms.
Aberarth beach is a great place to watch the sunset over the sea, or you can take the lovely mile long walk along the coast path to the seaside town of Aberaeron. Aberaeron is a Georgian- planned town and has a colourful array of brightly painted houses and pretty harbour, as well as a great range of eateries, friendly pubs and individual shops and galleries.
The university town of Aberystwyth is nearby and there is also New Quay which is well known for dolphin spotting, Borth, Tresaith, Cardigan and Llangrannog to explore.
A pretty Georgian coastal town located between Cardigan and Aberystwyth with a lovely pebble beach and beautiful sea views. There is an abundance of shops with unusual gifts, great eating places and pubs, and a quiet little harbour to enjoy watching the boats come and go. Aberaeron is perfectly positioned to enjoy boat trips and watersports, or coastal and countryside walks and cycle rides. Short drives to Cardigan to the south, or Aberystwyth to the north offer more shops, craft centres, museums and cinema or theatre visits. A wonderful Mid Wales location all year round.

Kitchen was new with lots of high quality dishes and pans and cutlery, etc. however the beds in some bedroom were old and making cracking noise. But I would recommend it very much.

Beds were comfortable. Very disappointed with the cleanliness though. There were cobwebs, dogs hair and the basement shower had black mould inside. The dishwasher needed salt and rinse aid and the radiators needed bleeding
