Lovely property in an idyllic location. Very dog friendly with surcure garden not overlooked.A Lovely pub 3 minutes walk away situated on the esturey. The property itself was very spacious, clean and well equipped. The area is quite rural and extremely quiet at night meaning we had really good nights sleep. Cardigan is a 5 minute drive away with bars ,shops and restaurants and poppit sands the local beach is a short 5 minute drive in the other direction. Local wildlife is diverse with plenty to see.We would definitely stay here again.
