"Morfa Isaf is a wonderful place for a get away from it all break."
Walks from the door over fields to the Coastal Path and sea cliffs - doggy heaven! If you have a good sense of direction there are two super circular walks back to the cottage taking in both coastal and inland wooded valleys … awesome. The cottage and gardens are fabulous and so is Mandy the owner. At this point I will admit that I’m on my 5th visit to Morfa Isaf and shall be booking again for next year. Highly recommended by me and my dogs.

"Very laid-back very comfortable apart from having no Wi-Fi which was not the owners fault and was out of her control."
Everything else was exactly as we expected. Really enjoyed our stay or probably book again.
-
"A good centre for walking and accessing the coastal path, in a peaceful setting."
A very engaging, friendly and helpful owner.
-
"A wonderful location and beautiful views from the house."
Close to the coastal path so no need for the car towards Penbryn and Llangrannog, which was great. Need to be aware of the narrow lanes when travelling around by car. Good storage space and comfortable bed. Would have appreciated a hairdryer, and there was a definite unpleasant smell of dog at the beginning of the week. Accommodation that doesn't accept dogs are getting harder to find.
-
"This is a lovely cottage in a spectacular setting."
Very convenient to lovely coastal walks and beaches. We will be back.
-
"We had a lovely few days as ever."
We enjoy being so close to the sea, the local walkes and places of interest in this part of wales. The accomodation is perfect for us and our dogs. Thank you

"Home from home … bright and airy kitchen with a beautiful view ."
Cosy living room . Comfortable bed . Fabulous costal walk . Maybe a little out of way for some but we loved its location. We were so lucky with the weather too this itself a massive plus. Would highly recommend . Would definitely love to return

"Fantastic place to get away from it all."
Great views and walks around, however the ground was very wet this time and the walk to the coastal path steep, slippery and muddy to the private beach which needs to be added to the description to prevent thoughts of it being easy to reach. I would go back to the cottage to explore the area more too. Beautiful part of the country to see.

"This was my 3rd time I have stayed at Morfa Isaf Cottage."
If you’re looking for peace and quiet, wonderful views and lovely walks right from the door then you can’t go wrong at Morfa Isaf. The cottage itself is a real hidden gem that is off the scale for cosy comfort. I’ve already booked for next year!
-
"Nice friendly host, the property is as described."
Would recommend to anyone who likes a secluded getaway. Very dog friendly too. We will be revisiting at some time too
-
"We had a great week with our two dogs."
Love this place and this part of the world. Thank you

"Overall, we were very happy with our stay."
It is a doggie-friendly house, which for dog owners is nice and the host is lovely and the location is outstanding, but I didn't award full marks for everything for one reason. As described, the garden directly outside the house is communal and gets used as such. Children were playing there most evenings. In and of itself, this isn't an issue during the day but, the windows to the rear of the cottage are large and have no blinds or nets, so when you come out of to the bathroom or go to the kitchen in the morning, you have to be fully dressed. Had I known in advance, I'd have brought a dressing gown to walk from the bathroom, back up to the bedroom to get dressed.
Hello Dustie, Many thanks for your thoughts on the Morfa Isaf cottage and your recent stay here. I always appreciate guests' reviews and especially ones that help me to improve the cottages in general. I lived in that cottage for 7 years and at the beginning gave some thought to putting blinds up. I knew I'd never use them. However, I appreciate every guest is different and some may want to take advantage of having blinds . Ironically, we only have children staying once a year and it coincided with your stay. Children or not, a public footpath runs down the side of the garden in question so there is always a chance of seeing people not to mention that garden is shared with the Granary cottage and my own guests in the house so I understand why you may have wanted a dressing gown. It sounds like you wouldn't have been happy with just wearing a towel. I will certainly ask Sykes about their thoughts on the subject. In the 11 years I have rented it to holiday makers, you are only the second person to bring this to my attention. I'm aware that doesn't necessarily reflect the views of everyone who has stayed here so thank you for your honesty. Your comments have been noted as improvements for the future. Property Owner

"We stayed here for 2 nights as a last minute extension to our Wales break."
What a find
-
"We arrived anticipating a wet week; however, we had a wonderfully warm and sunny stay."
The cottage is well appointed and spacious with a lovely view over the sea from the breakfast bar. No better way to start the day. Being on the coastal path there is acces to the north and south. This was our second visit, and we will return.
-
"A great retreat for recharging the batteries."
The cottage was just right for us and the dog…..with a relaxing garden and superb views across the fields to the sea. Being able to walk down to the coastal path where the “secret beach” is (not easy to climb down to) and walk to Llanngrannog with its beautiful beaches (dog friendly) and nice places to eat was great. The views from the coastal path are stunning. If you like to be away from other tourists and crowds then this is the place to be. Mandy was on hand to help if we needed her.
-
"Stunning location, beautiful garden, easy access to footpaths, beaches."
So quiet and peaceful. The house is roomy and comfortable, everything you’d want. The owner Mandy is to hand but not invasive. Spot on.
-
"We had a fabulous week at this lovely cottage and the photos don't do it justice as it is much larger inside and out than is shown."
Just like its owner it is a bit " Quirky" and I mean that in the nicest possible way because Mandy, the hostess, is lovely with a great sense of humour. Lots of places to walk and many lovely pubs nearby to eat. We are in our 70,s but still managed to walk the coastal path to Llangrannog, have lunch, and walk back again but it is a bit steep in parts. Dog owners should be aware that the garden is not secure and is shared with other guests and there is a public footpath running through it. This should not be a problem if your dog is good at recall and friendly with other people and dogs.

"We absolutely love this cottage."
We've visited 3 times so far. We went in March loved it so much we went back 6 wks later in may. Came home yesterday already missing it. Looking to go again. It's situated where there's lovely beaches not too far away with only a short distance to drive to get to them. Cottage is well equipped. And the lovely king size bed is so comfy we had the best nights sleeps. The garden and fields adjoining was especially loved by our little dacshund dolly. Amanda the owner is the perfect friendly host. Looking forward to another visit. I think everyone booking this cottage will enjoy their holiday.
-
"Wonderful location, both remote and accessible with fantastic views."
The owner was very welcoming and helpful and the bed was really comfortable. We'd love to come back sometime.
-
"Lovely stay, venue, location, very friendly."
Although the property is on the coast, getting to the beach at the end of the field is far too dangerous with a slippy narrow cliff edge path. We had a lovely time there. v
-
"Gorgeous cottage in beautiful location."
Very comfortable, well equipped and clean. The owner Mandy was very welcoming and helpful and the general area lovely too. Quiet and rural with plenty of nearby walks for our dogs, just what we wanted!
-
"Local walks amazing from the back door beach accessable but very steep walk down and back Very quiet location owner very accommodating nearest pub is a drive away but we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves even in the snow!"
! We would certainly return The bed is the highest I’ve ever slept in !

"Just had a fabulous four day break staying at the Morfa Isaf cottage."
Mandy, the delightful property owner, was there to meet us and show us around when we arrived. The cottage facilities were brilliant, home from home, everything that you need and more! We ate in the Pentre Arms in Llangrannog on two occasions, dog friendly and better to book, the food is amazing! The Londis shop in Brynhoffnant is very good but a little pricey. We went on holiday with our daughter, her partner and their two Beagles who all stayed in the Granary Cottage a few feet from our cottage! They did alot of walking on the fabulous surrounding beaches and coastal paths whereas us retired folks discovered the area in our car. Lots of lovely places to visit. Would definitely recommend and will be booking again!
-
"The cottage was well appointed and very comfortable."
The location was perfect for us with easy access to the coastal path north and south. There is a lovely secluded beach nearby (Traeth Bach) but access is not for the faint hearted or people with restricted mobility. The owner was friendly, helpful and available on site. There is a well stocked Londis shop for provisions some 4 miles or so from the cottage.

"It was a very comfortable cottage."
-
"We had a great week in an amazing pĺace."
-
"Lovely cottage, great location and spacious"
-
"If you want too get away from it all , this is the perfect spot, down a country lane in the middle of nowhere."
Just the sounds of nature and glorious views of the sea, and the coast path on your door step. I know we will be back.
Thanks Tim for your return visit and naturally your lovely comment. I might just go and pop that on our Facebook page (I won't use your name)! Property Owner
-
"We had a really lovely holiday."
It is a really comfortable cottage with a wonderful view. Everything was done to make our holiday exceptional even to the owner putting in a new cooker to replace the one that wasn't working quite right even though it was usable. Certainly would recommend it to anyone who wants a nice relaxing holiday
-
"As ever,a brilliant cottage in a wonderful location with a helpful and caring host."
You won’t go wrong staying here.
Thanks Pete, I appreciate your comments. And now the drainage is sorted, there's no more paddling to the car after 3 weeks of rain...before you arrived last time, I remember it so clearly! Property Owner

"Directions to the property need to be clearer, but other than that, we had a wonderful stay there, the views over the sea from the breakfast bar in the kitchen were so relaxing."
we walked miles along the cliffs, just enjoying the peace and solitude and fantastic views. Lovely little cafe a mile down the coastal path was a favorite destination every day.Cottage was extremely well equipped, with a large kitchen, cozy lounge and lovely beamed bedroom (mind your head, you only bump it once!) We will certainly come again.
Thank you both for your helpful and positive comments. We enjoyed your company and your beautiful dog too! Property Owner

"I'd like to start by saying we had a brilliant holiday we used the cottage as a base to walk the coastal path."
The cottage is is a beautiful location but on opening the door the first thing we where hit by was a terrible smell of dog. We boiled up some coffee grounds to help get rid of the smell. The quilt was awful very strained. I did take photos. We normally have our sleeping bags with us in the car but I'd taken them out for this trip. If we'd had them I would have used them instead. The sink was very strained and needed a good clean. Again I do have photos. The carpet has seen better days. When we came to use the vacuum cleaner it gave off really strong dog smells. At one point we woke up to find we had no water. The owner lived next door but didn't answer her phone. I know she was poorly but she could have talked to us on the phone.We went with out water for over two hours not very nice when your thirsty. This could be the most amazing place with a bit of updating and cleaning. I would rather have just emailed Sykes with the photos really but couldn't find an email address.
Up until now I haven't responded to any of my reviews on Sykes' own platform. I realise it is much better if I do and so here are my thoughts concerning your particular review.... Please feel free to forward your photos on. I don't dread or hide in fear of bad reviews, I learn from them. I spoke to Sykes who said you can telephone them to ask for the email address for any communications. I agree, the carpet needs renewing now, it certainly is tatty in parts. It was on my to do list and as a popular property, it will have to wait until the end of the season. We try to remove dog smells as much as possible. Clearly we weren't successful for your stay, for that I apologise. I can't imagine how coffee grounds were going to help. The duvet I agree can look "strained" to some. However, it is cleaned regularly. It wasn't white when I bought it, it was beige and over the years has lost colour in parts. I can see that some people may think it's dirty and therefore I will have to buy another one. As far as the sink is concerned, it is a good quality one. It has been soaked in bleach and cleaned endlessly over recent years. That is the colour we now have, clean but "strained" to some. My tenant, Mal explained to you that both my 90 year old mother and I had covid during your stay. Had I been well and up the morning that there was no water on the whole farm, I would obviously have seen we'd had a power cut and corrected it immediately. Instead, Mal woke me up, explained there was "an angry woman outside with no water in her cottage." I later heard, it has to be said, your unfriendly phone message, "it's absolutely disgraceful." I struggle with this attitude I'm afraid. I would ask you to bear in mind we live in a very rural area with our own private water supply. However, it was dealt with immediately and was quickly remedied. Meanwhile, the people in the Granary cottage wondered if there was anything they could do to help. How different we all are. In future I will ensure a large bottle of water is left in both cottages. For the benefit of future people interested in booking a holiday here, I can assure you that I do my best to make my guests as comfortable as possible. For this, I rely on their honesty and openness to tell me during their stay if anything is not right. I'm unable to do anything after the event. Thank you for your positive and in part helpful comments along with everything else you shared. I hope your next holiday cottage meets with your expectation. Property Owner

"Friendly and helpful welcome from owner."
Very peaceful with kitchen overlooking a beautiful garden with sea views in the distance. From the bedroom you look up a country lane towards the sea. We saw a fox trotting down the lane one morning. Very good birding area with lots in the garden. Recommended.
-
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Morfa Isaf Farm, the cottage was very comfortable, with plenty of space."
We enjoyed sitting in the kitchen looking out at the garden and sea views and our dog loved the coastal walks. The location was so quiet and peaceful. The path down to the beach was challenging but we managed it twice - the second time was easier than the first. The owner was really friendly and helpful, we would love to to come back.
-
"Morfa Isaf Farm is a lovely property in a dream location."
My dogs loved the immediate access onto the coastal paths and miles of exciting off lead walks, great beaches and the sea views are stunning. The cottage is remarkably spacious, very cosy, homely and clean. There is no traffic of consequence in the vicinity and NO traffic noise can be heard, just the bird song as you enjoy the huge rear garden. I loved everything about this place it ticked every one of my boxes, breathtakingly fabulous!
-
"Lovely clean cottage."
Stunning views. Breakfast bar allows you to enjoy. Spacious for 2 people, comfortable lounge. Good shower in bathroom. Bed comfortable although high off the ground. No issues, would recommend and will look to stay again.
-
"We had a great few days at Morfa Isaf."
The cottage was warm and comfortable despite the best attempts of the storms out side. Lovely coastal walks, and we were made very welcome.
-
"Brilliant cottage beautiful setting."
Well equipped and cosy ideal for our two dogs. Walks from the doorstep which was ideal. Owner very friendly and helpful.
-
"Wonderful cottage in an absolutely beautiful location."
A friendly and helpful welcome. We’ll be back soon.
-
"A lovely cottage, very quiet, brilliant views and a very relaxed atmosphere."
Great walks down to the sea and along the coastal path. Perfect for what we wanted. It rained a lot during our stay which didn’t, matter at all - it would have been nice to have larger towels to use after strenuous walking, swimming and shower but that’s a minor point. Water tasted brilliant. Will recommend to other couples and may well come back for a longer stay. Thank you
-
"We have stayed here before."
It's a cosy remote cottage with sea views. Ideal for 1 or 2 people. We take our dog as there's plenty of walking right from your door step. We'll be back again. Thank you.
-
"The cottage was cosy and comfortable with everything we needed."
The location was wonderful - we loved the fact that we had a sea view, and we could walk straight on to the beautiful coast path without getting in the car. Our host was friendly and helpful. We would love to go back.
-
"This was a beautifully relaxing place to stay."
Surrounded by gorgeous gardens and rolling countryside. The nearby beach was beautiful with the waterfall being a fabulous bonus. The surrounding countryside and many beaches were an endless joy to be found. Mandy the host, what a lovely , talented and interesting person to meet. Mandy made us feel very welcome and was kind enough to bring a lovely bunch of fresh flowers across from her garden. The cottage had every home comfort you needed and more. We cannot wait to return and only reluctantly recommended it to others, The truth is we would rather keep this special romantic hideaway to ourselves!
-
"The shower was a bit of an issue."
Mandy assured us that she would get it sorted out - the water went from boiling to ice cold!!
-
"Beautiful cottage in such a wonderful setting, perfect for couples and their fury friends!"
The little extras on arrival, the fresh flowers, eggs and homegrown lettuce really made us feel welcome! Such a wonderful base to explore the coast! Gorgeous walks in every direction and such a beautiful quiet beach close by! We even managed to see dolphins! Mandy was such a lovely host, always there if you needed anything but left us to our own devices! Would definitely recommend and we hope to return very soon! Many thanks!
-
"Amazing location."
Lovely friendly host. As an added bonus the weather was perfect!!
-
"Nice property in a peaceful location."
Booking was very straightforward and all information clear and accurate.
-
"Thoroughly lovely experience all round - great host, great location and lovely cottage."
Thank you!
-
"This cottage ticks all the boxes for us dog friendly and accessible to good coastal walks shops short drive away."
-
"Lovely situation, with a superb kitchen with panoramic views overlooking a large grassed garden."
Comfortable sitting /dining room with French windows and unusual bedroom! The bed took a it of climbing into but helpful steps on one side. Once there, very cosy with feather pillows. Walking was excellent from the cottage and the area is very dog friendly with nearly every beach - and there are many - offering dog welcoming section. The weather wasn't very good but still managed plenty of walking and relaxing. Mandy Painting at the farm was very helpful and kind, Jane
-
"Have a nice relaxing week,cottage was lovely so peaceful."
Dog had a great time visiting lots of beaches and chatting with the local cows in the field. Lots of walks in fields and just relaxed. Had breakfast with mandy on our last day it was lovely.thank you for a great break x
-
"The weather was terrible."
the cottage was definitely not dog friendly. we had to barricade the stairs off so our dog could not get up there. the garden was not dog friendly either as our dog could have escaped so we had to keep him on a lead when we were outside. the so called private pathway down to the beach was inaccessible certainly could not get down there with the dog. which was a pity as it was the only beach in the area he could go on. we lost electricity for a couple of hours. need I go on?. may I say the owner of the property was very nice and friendly but we certainly would not go there again
-
"Just spent 6nights at this little gem,lovely location coastal paths right on the doorstep, beaches are beautiful and weather was quite good."
Mandy the owner and her sister were really helpful made us feel really welcome. Our 2 border Collies loved it.
-
"Friendly and helpful experienced owner, peaceful retreat with beautiful seaviers over Cardigan Bay, bit of a wacky bed but you got used to it !"
-
"The peace and tranquility was wonderful with nothing but the sounds of nature."
Sitting having breakfast gazing at the sea and watching the cows in the field next to the cottage was so relaxing. The cows were quiet as well. We could happily live there, and the contrast between urban living with lots of people around you, and being there was very noticable. Quiet and no people wins every time for us.
-
"The location of the cottage is fabulous with gorgeous views over the bay."
The cottage itself is cosy and welcoming. We chose this cottage specifically as it is described as having access to a private beach which we were intending to take our dog to every day of our stay. We were very disappointed to discover that the private beach is accessed via an incredibly steep and very overgrown path which looked too dangerous to attempt. Guests at the next door B&B did manage to make it down there but struggled to make the climb back up the hill. I do think the description is very misleading as it gives the impression that the beach is at the end of the garden path. This is so not the case and needs to be honestly and properly explained in the overview of the cottage.
-
"The peace and quiet we were looking for"
-
"The fact that they accepted 3 dogs and that there were plenty of fields and garden to play in."
Mandy was very friendly, and we had breakfast at the B & B on the day we returned which was great. The cottage was extremely comfortable and the view from the kitchen where we ate breakfast were stunning. We have no hesitation in recommending this cottage and hostess.
-
"Wow! The cottage was lovely, we had a very relaxing holiday with lots of walk in such a lovely area."
The view from the cottage was breathtaking!
-
"Lovely cottage nice and cosy ."
Relaxing area .great for walking dogs.
-
"Hidden away along a long country lane, a very comfortable cottage in a beautiful setting near the coastal path."
The owner was very welcoming. The cottage was well equipped so we had an extremely enjoyable holiday.
-
"Fabulous place to stay."
.one criticism the mattress on the bed needs replacing as it had a tendency to roll me and my wife into the middle of the bed
-
"For us, with 2 Dogs, this accommodation was perfect."
Location brilliant and Mandy, the owner, very welcoming and obliging. Would definitely go back if holidaying in South Wales again.
-
"The cottage was exactly as I thought it would be, right off the beaten track on the edge of nowhere!"
Wonderful walks with the dogs and views, wildlife right on our doorstep. Perfect getaway.
