Llainlwyd

About this property

New Quay 1.1 miles. Nestled in the countryside in Maen-y-groes near New Quay in Sir Ceredigion is Llainlwyd. This idyllic, dog-friendly wood cabin benefits from a wonderful location in the countryside close to the sea, with views across the water being visible in the distance, an enclosed garden so your beloved canine companion can roam freely and five well-appointed bedrooms perfect for families or friends looking to explore all the Welsh coast has to offer. Cross the threshold and head straight into the fully-equipped kitchen/diner where you can rustle up hearty meals for the whole group to enjoy together around the dining table. Later, unwind in the sitting room in front of the TV or step outside to savour the last of the sun with a glass of wine upon the decking; if the sun is shining, why not enjoy your meal alfresco? When the sky darkens, head inside to wash off the day in the bathroom before catching your rest in one of five bedrooms; choose from a double with en-suite, two double, a twin or a bunk room. If you can tear yourself away from the tranquillity of the lodge, head into the heart of New Quay to find local stores where you can pick up all the necessities for your self-catered stay and pubs and restaurants like the Penwig Hotel and The Pepper Pot Bar and Grill where you can enjoy delicious food with a breath-taking view across the sea. Spend sunny days upon the golden shores of New Quay or Dolua Beach where you can soak up the sun, admire the spectacular views across the bay or take boat trips for fishing and unique chances to spot the dolphins residing here. Other must-see attractions include the National Trust sites of Llanerchaeron a fabulous 18th-century estate where guests can roam the villa, its walled garden or around the idyllic lake or Penbryn a hidden gem of a beach with a woodland walk and a close proximity to the Tresaith Waterfall. Be at one with the great outdoors at Llainlwyd.

If you take a stroll down the water's edge in this charming seaside town, you'll quickly understand why it's one of the most popular holiday spots at any time of the year. Boat rides are a fantastic way to see the playful dolphins, seals, and other unusual animals and birds that call the bay home, and the bay itself is home to a charming selection of gift stores, tea houses, restaurants, and pubs. Active members of your group can take advantage of guided opportunities to learn to sail, kayak, windsurf, and operate power boats from qualified instructors. Dylan Thomas, a well-known poet, found inspiration in New Quay for many of his writings, including "Quite Early One Morning," and the town now features a Dylan Thomas route for visitors. Aberaeron, a colourful Georgian harbour town with brightly painted homes and plenty of eateries and inns, is located only 12 kilometres (7 miles) away. Beautiful sandy beaches and scenic countryside walks can be found in this part of Wales, and the area is also home to the iconic Devil's Bridge, which is known around the world for its three bridges, narrow gauge steam railway, and flowing waterfalls. A year-round paradise that serves as the ideal holiday home base.
