• "This place is an absolute gem, 5 star plus, with baubles on top!"

  !! Joy the owner has thought about every little detail, it is the best stocked cottage we have ever stayed in. It has everything you could ever need and even things you didn't think you would need, but do. From all the eco products in the kitchen, to all the eco and high end products in the bathroom, plus luxurious towels and bedding and a kitchen that has all the equipment that a chef would be proud to cook in. The cottage is large, extremely comfortable and was spotlessly clean, the enclosed court yard garden with hot tub is an added bonus, especially good for dogs, they are secure. The welcome pack from Joy was very thoughtful, all local products and even treats for your dogs. This is a MUST place to stay, simply the BEST with so many added bonus's and somewhere we will definitely be returning to.

  Thank you so much for your effusive feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and that the cottage met your needs. Rod and Joy Property Owner

  Above and beyond with attention to detail, we felt as if we were staying on a retreat and thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub each evening, after walking the adventurous coastal paths. Special thanks to Joy and Rod for a warm and welcoming stay, treats on arrival and safe space for our dog Grace.

  10 years on everything is exactly as I remember. It goes to show the effort the owners put in to running this place - everything was exceptional as expected and the personal touches left for us are the best we have experienced through many UK holidays. Many thanks - we will be back again!

  We struggled to find the location using our Sat Nav, however” what 3 words “ is a free app to download onto your phone and will take you straight there. Rod & Joy the owners live next door and are lovely friendly people. This location is central to most areas. The accommodation is very comfortable and has everything you could possibly need including a hot tub. The Sykes pictures do not do this accommodation any justice. The under floor heating works well from thermostats in each room.

  Everything was just perfect for us. From being on the farm.. we loved interacting with the cows and the sheepdogs (Jess & Meg) to the spacious cottage itself. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the hot tub was a huge hit with our 10 year old (and us!) Joy and Rod were the most perfect hosts, they made us feel extremely comfortable and relaxed for our entire time with them. The "Welcome" pack was extremely thoughtful, even our dog had gifts to welcome her to the cottage. And don't worry if you forget things like shampoo or teabags, because the supplies that Joy and Rod have put in place to cater for such scenarios are amazing! 100% recommend. We will definitely be returning!

• "Wow! What a find!"

  The cottage is much larger than it appears in the photos, and beautifully presented inside and out and spotlessly clean. We were very lucky with the weather over the bank holiday weekend, we brought our portable bbq with us and had dinner each evening outside in the lovely garden, which the sun didn't appear to leave all day! The hot tub is huge, and was very much enjoyed. The owners have obviously put a lot of thought and love into making the place the perfect spot to chill out and enjoy the surroundings of the beautiful Welsh countryside. There is even a patio heater for chillier evenings if you want to enjoy more time outdoors. We drove out to Poppit sands (about 25mins), where our pooch enjoyed exploring the sand dunes, and to Cenarth Falls (12 mins) for a riverside and woodland walk, and a little splash about in the shallow waters beside the bridge. Just perfect, we cannot wait to return ❤️

• "Absolutely fantastic stay at this cottage."

  The cottage was perfect for us as a family and had everything we needed. The cottage was on a working farm and the owners were right next door. They met us on arrival and and talked us through everything. The cottage was absolutely spotless. Location wise it is a 20 minute drive to the nearest beach (Aberporth). Other beaches like tresaith, Poppit sands or llangranog are a few minutes further away. Being woken up to the sound of cows in the morning is such fun and our dog loved being on a working farm. The dog was-able to use the fields to go circa walk and to do her business when the cows were not around. What really makes this cottage special are the little touches left by the owners on arrival. I do not have anything negative to say as there really are no negatives. The hot tub rounds things off after a busy day out and about. I really recommend this cottage. Believe me you won’t be disappointed.

  Thank you for your feedback. We were unaware of the extent of the current WiFi issues in the cottage until after your family left on 7 August as it was not mentioned it to us. Living in rural West Wales, WiFi is not always reliable and over the years we have invested in technology to try and improve connectivity and band-width. As a direct result of this feedback we pursued the matter again and have now benefited from advancement in technology and had 4G installed on 14 September. Our guests who stayed last week have said that the signal is "fantastic" and it extends to the courtyard garden. It is always a great disappointment to us if our guest experience is impaired in any way and we shall always do our utmost to address any shortcomings should they occur.

The cottages is so well equipped you need not take hardly anything with you at all which is brilliant. The beds are extremely comfortable and the whole layout of the place is lovely, spacious and so clean. We walked in and were shown around by Joy, who made sure we knew exactly where everything was and how it worked. The Welcome goodybag was such a lovely touch and a really nice start to our first evening there. We thoroughly enjoyed the fresh chicken eggs from their chickens with our morning breakfasts and evening omelettes. We were also privileged enough to try some duck eggs as well, which were just as lovely. Rod kindly introduced us to his animals which was one big plus of staying on a farm, seeing the baby calves and lambs as well as the ducks, chickens and friendly farm cats, which will welcome you at the back door each morning. Having the hot tub was so nice after you had been out for a day trip or a long walk. We would just sit back and relax our muscles which was a lovely end to each day. The underfloor heating that warms the whole place is really good, we were warm and snug the whole week we there and it was lovely under foot too. There are so many things about this property which are lovely, the quality of furniture, extremely well equipped kitchen and attention to detail right through is brilliant. There are many places to see around the area but I would recommend:- -Sculptureheaven, a really lovely little place to visit and their cakes and cordials are wonderful. -Cenarth falls just round the corner, you can enjoy a lunch & drink in the pub opposite or a nice ice cream from the little gift shop, while taking a walk down the side of the river listening to the water rumbling over the stones. -Cardigan coastal farm park is a great place to visit if you have children to see the farm animals but even for us, just to enjoy the coastal walk above and see the Seals bobbing their heads up about the water and if you are lucky, a dolphin too. -Visit Caws Cenarth cheese farm and watch through windows into the factory as they make the cheese, separating the curds and whey and then down by hand putting the cards into the cheese moulds. Then walk across to the shop for some tastings, you can't help come away with bags of cheese, it's lovely. -The National Wool Museum just around the corner is quite interesting as well and worth a visit. We also visited a Goldmine, a Waterfall and a Coal mine, which were further afield but all really good too.

• "I believe my title says it all."

  Having come back to Yr Hen Llaethdy five times in four years we clearly love this slice of Welsh heaven. Joy and Rod are extremely welcoming, the little personal touches to the cottage make the stay. The gift bag of sweets, jams and little presents for our children was perfect. We had a Chinese from the Super Garden in town, which was amazing and a must have. We visited Pen Y Bryn beach twice and highly recommend it. We will most definitely be returning. Massive thumbs up to Joy and Rod for all their hard work they put in to make Yr Hen Llaethdy a home from home.

• "Lovely cottage."

  Everything provided and more. Hot tub was great fun and relaxing after a day out and about. Plenty of towels plus robes and slippers for hot tub. Owners so friendly and accommodating-left a welcome parcel and milk and water in the fridge. Really spacious and modern. Plus you are on a working farm so plenty off animals about including kittens and ducks and shire horses next door. Really quiet just the sound of sheep and birds. Definitely recommend.

  They supplied a lovely goody bag of items on arriving at the cottage which was well beyond there duty and we thought it was an excellent gesture . The cottage is very nicely furnished inside with all mod cons and everything you should ever wish for is in there . Beds are comfy and plenty of towels for you to use. The hot tub in the garden is lovely and we enjoyed going in there most nights . We enjoyed our week and would certainly recommend to family and friends . Mr & Mrs Tweed .

  The hot tub, 3d TV were a welcome treat and table football was a real winner with the childen (8 & 14). working farm so plenty of cows, calves, donkey;s and cats. Great location but you do need to drive to get to places but nothing is really too far away.

  The trouble you that Joy goes to to ensure your stay is perfect is something you don't see often anymore. Both Joy and Rod were welcoming and friendly without being invasive. The facilities were wonderful, lovely hot tub and spa bath, no expense has been spared on the furnishings, the beds were extremely comfortable and overall feel of the cottage was home from home. You are on a working farm which is wonderful, beautiful little cows as your neighbours, donkeys, baby lambs and horses. So sad to leave but so happy to have booked somewhere like this hidden gem, and have had the most wonderful Christmas.
