Immaculate and well equipped house. Nice garden and dog walks from the door in Longwood. The owners were friendly and helpful and provided a lovely welcome basket of treats including something for the dog. The property is ideally located for exploring west Wales. About 30 mins drive from the stunning Cardigan Bay beaches, easy to reach Aberystwyth and attractions such as Vale of Rheidol steam railway (great chocolate shop in Devil's Bridge). All in all a very relaxing week away for all of us.

What an amazing place to stay, location and the cottage itself. An idyllic part of wales. The cottage has everything you need to a high modern standard. Ffion was a fantastic host, nothing was too much bother for her. She went out of her way to make us feel welcome leaving us an amazing local hamper. Will be booking to come back again soon. On a side note went to the local town Lampeter for a Sunday Roast at the Castle Green Inn, what a really good local four meat roast, dogs welcome and Mavis the landlady couldn’t of done anymore to make us feel welcome.
