The village lies on the banks of the Afon Brefi and dates back to the 1st century when the Romans set up camp in a settlement known as Bremia (bubbling stream). There is an interesting local legend to discover whilst here as to how the village later came to be known as Llandewi Brefi! In centuries gone by it was a thriving and bustling place on the drovers’ route taking livestock to London and beyond. Today the village is rather more peaceful but still has a village shop for your essential supplies and two warm and welcoming inns.
The area abounds with walks and cycle routes (plenty starting from the cottage) and mountain biking opportunities. The market town of Tregaron is 3 miles away with shops, the Rhiannon Welsh Gold Centre, and an award-winning restaurant and pub. Just a mile beyond, you will find the stunning Cors Caron Nature Reserve, over 2000 acres of finest raised bog system with an access-friendly boardwalk route through it.

A variety of guided walking tours are available via local organisers. A 35-minute drive will bring you to the fantastic Ceredigion coastline with its beaches (many are dog friendly year-round), dolphin-watching boat trips, and the university town of Aberystwyth with its cliff railway, pier and long promenade. Also worth a visit is the attractive Georgian harbour town of Aberaeron, famous for pastel coloured properties and honey ice cream. Shop, pub and restaurant 2½ miles.

Accommodation was spot on ,very clean and well equipped , and a lovely welcome pack. The owners lived next door and were very helpful and enjoyed a chat and also had a tour around their farm. The location was remote and 2.5 miles from the local village which was great to completely relax and enjoy the wildlife and beautiful country side, I would highly recommend this property as a great place to stay.

Have just had 4 nights in this wonderful place with my mom who is 72. It was well suited for us both, although it is definitely rural.. if that's what you are looking for. The views on the way in are stunning. The bungalow is set in tranquil grounds with dogs and cattle around, plus birds.. a nature lovers dream. The bungalow itself was absolutely immaculate inside, the interior is well thought out and definitely gets a 5 star rating. Absolutely nothing to fault it. The nearest shop is 7 miles away, so bring at least a few nights of food... But you do get a welcome basket.. Hosts were fantastic and so friendly.. was a perfect Welsh getaway.. thank you so much

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Cwm Dulas. The cottage is wonderful and very well laid out. The owners and their family made us feel at home immediately. We enjoyed meeting all the farm's animals and if you would like to look up from your breakfast table and see the two Highland cattle munching theirs, this is the place to stay. Thank you to everyone for making our holiday so delightful. Jon and Mandy
