Glanyrafon Smithy

About this property

Llanarth 5.1 miles. Glanyrafon Smithy is a characterful converted blacksmiths cottage resting in Talgarreg near New Quay, offering a tranquil countryside setting with a traditional charm. Ideal for couples, friends, or small families, this home features two well-presented bedrooms, including a ground-floor king and a family room with both a double and single bed. The heart of the home is the living/dining room, a truly characterful space where rustic charm takes centre stage. Exposed wooden beams stretch overhead, framing a room steeped in history, while the brick fire surround draws the eye to the glowing woodburning stove at its centre. As flames flicker and logs crackle, this becomes the perfect spot for lingering evenings - whether you’re sharing stories over a glass of wine or simply unwinding after a countryside walk.

It’s a room that invites you to slow down, savour the moment, and enjoy the simple pleasures of rural living. The kitchen provides everything needed for easy self-catering, while the bathroom offers both a bath and walk-in shower for added convenience. Outside, an enclosed garden with patio, lawn, and barbecue invites alfresco dining, and off-road parking ensures a stress-free arrival. Two well-behaved pets are welcome, making this a great choice for those bringing furry companions. Step beyond the garden and discover the beauty of Mid Wales. With a pub just a short stroll away, countryside walks start at your doorstep, ensuring scenic trails and rewarding refreshment.
