Wonderful stay in Borth, beautiful beach and perfect for our dog. Highly recommend the nature reserve track across the Sand dunes for stunning coastal views and amazing beach . (The trek has wooden decking for safety and ease through the dunes.) The cottage was just perfect, excellent in every way, 100 meters from the lovely beach, 5 mins walking to pub and would recommend the Victoria Pub for stunning views from roof terrace and beautiful sunsets. Cleanliness, comfort, parking, the small enclosed garden and again the views at the cottage made this short break really enjoyable .. thank you to Colin for checking in and out with us at the beginning and end of our stay. Highly recommend
