Guests are enchanted by the Sky Hut's tranquil setting and unique features, such as the openable roof for stargazing and the presence of friendly donkeys. The farm's natural beauty and the warm hospitality of the hosts, Neris and Arwel, contribute to a memorable experience. While some guests mention minor cleanliness issues and shared hot tub concerns, the overall sentiment is one of relaxation and a desire to return.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found the Sky Hut to be a wonderful place to stay, though a few noted that cleanliness could be improved, particularly in communal areas and under the bed. The feedback suggests that attention to detail in cleaning would enhance the experience.
The location is highly praised for its peacefulness and proximity to nature, with beautiful views and a short drive to New Quay. The farm setting offers a serene escape, though it's noted that farm smells are part of the experience.
Guests report a high level of comfort, enjoying features like the hot tub with a view and the cosy atmosphere of the hut. Some mention the need for additional utensils and difficulty with shower temperature, but overall, the comfort level is well-regarded.
The facilities, including the hot tub, pizza oven, and kayaks, are appreciated, but the shared nature of the hot tub and its booking system received mixed reviews. The availability of wood and a games room adds to the positive experience, though some maintenance details could be addressed.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident in the welcome hamper and open access to amenities. While such gestures are warmly received, it's important to note that these are not guaranteed and may vary with each stay.
About this property
That's not your eyes playing tricks with you. The roof really can be opened, enabling you to enjoy the sunshine or the magnificent night sky from the comfort of your private bed. Welcome to the totally unique Sky Hut...
Relax in front of the fire or open up the roof to admire the wonders of the milky way from the comfort of your own bed. Enjoy a glass of wine in the hot tub overlooking stunning countryside views or sit back with a good book in a boat on the lake. Sky Hut offers a truly unique, romantic and inspiring lakeside retreat in West Wales - the perfect base to discover the beauty of Cardigan Bay with its long stretches of golden sand.

We loved our stay in your cottage, the fact there was no WiFi or signal was very wholesome and waking up to the donkeys was very cute :)

The cleanliness did let the hut down. All around needed the the finishing touches to be looked at! The Hut and communal areas. We saw the owner once as he was very chatty and welcoming!
