  • "I wanted relaxing and that’s what we got, and to be honest more than that, lovely place to stay walk down to the pub by the beach."

    What more could you ask for…

  • "The general appearance was disappointing."

    We thought the front garden parking area would benefit from a good tidy up over grown with weeds.The windows needed cleaning and rear outlook was in need of brightening up as grubby.The kitchen was functional and basic for example only one tea towel provided for a week's stay.The ceilings are discolored in some of the rooms.Lack of visitors book which can be helpful on local recommendations. Comfortable bed and good quality bedding. Needs a bit of TLC.

  • "Lovely spacious affordable rental."

    Tresaith a firm favorite. Fine to walk down to the beach, but for sea dips and boarding we went for the carpark- 2 quid in the honesty box. Quick nip in the car to Aberporth shop for essentials. Cardigan friendly larger town - good vegan section in Tesco's! Arm yourself with pound coins for all the beach carparks- Penbryn, Aberporth etc. Did the New Quay boat trip and were rewarded with dolphin and seal sightings, kittiwakes swooping overhead- wonderful. We are plotting a return to Cwmberwyn when life a little less busy- a fortnight at least hopefully. The owners were next door, but very unobstrusive- a bottle of plonk in the fridge and welcome waffles; Faith in Nature toiletries- discreet care, left by the fairies. Best Sykes experience yet and we're clocking up a few...

  • "The property would benefit from a little t l c as there were lots of scuffs on walls and the ceiling in the bathroom needed a clean as there were black spots were visible."

    (Considering this was early in the season not really a good impression ) Having said that, the beds were comfortable and towels supplied were fluffy and white . There was plenty of hot water and the property was lovely and warm , the view from the lounge to the sea was great and a real sun trap in the afternoon . We were able to walk from the property to the beach , access the coastal path and walk up through the local forest . The local area has lots of lovely beaches to explore .

  • "I would say that the photos for this property do not do it justice!"

    Lovely warm and cosy home that had what the three of us needed for Easter weekend. Lots of room to park two cars. Plenty of room in the kitchen for provisions to be put away. More than enough space for three or 4 adults to be comfortable in the lounge. Bedrooms well organised - had to resist the urge to pack the Welsh Wool throw and cushions on departure! Bathrooms lovely and warm with plenty of hot water. Emily was a lovely host - alerting us to a plumbing issue before our arrival but had fixed it by the time we got there. The goodies left were well appreciated. Quiet spot but walking distance from the pub on the beach. Would be perfect for two couples wanting a base for the Ceredigion coast.

    We found the accommodation as per the instructions given and wow what more can I say. The little gift of Prosecco and the chocolate waffles was a nice touch and we settled in straight away before exploring. We loved it so much we are booking again for May.

    The accommodation is clean and comfortable with sea views from the balcony. The owners thoughtfully left a welcome pack of milk, fizz and Welsh cakes. The location is ideal in a quiet location, only 10 minutes walk to Tresaith beach from where you can access the coastal path in both directions. The Ship Inn on the beach is a friendly pub serving delicious food.

  • "This is a fantastic property in an equally fantastic location."

    We travelled as two couples and the two equally sized rooms and bathrooms meant there was no squabbling over rooms. The view from the balcony is amazing!! The walk to the pub is quick and its well worth a visit. It is a little steep on the way back up but not enough to put us off. The property itself was beautifully clean and had everything we needed. Emily had even left a bottle of prosecco in the fridge for our arrival. We really couldn't fault it and would 100% stay again!

    It was wonderful to wake up in the morning and just look out into the distance from inside or on the balcony. The kitchen was well equipped. The property was very clean and provided everything that we needed. Loved the fact that it had off road parking. Enjoyed the walk down to the beach, but it is up hill on the way back. The beach is lovely and clean and offers a lovely coastal walk to Aberporth which has seating along the way. There is a lovely friendly pub which offers great views of the beach and sea. It was an ideal place to stay and travel around to different local places.

    Emily and Harriet were great, good communication and nothing too much trouble. A short drive to amenities. Welsh opening hours have dramatically improved over the last 20 years. The Pub in the village just up from the beach doesn't disappoint either, just remember its a uphill walk home. Direct access to the Coastal path meant a walk was a good option on those overcast days.

    Cwmberwyn had plenty of pots and pans knives etc, which meant that we were able to cook properly. Often the pots and pans in are whatever oddments the owners have at the back of their cupboards. Not everybody can afford to go out to eat so thank you for thinking about that aspect of self catering holidays. Cwmberwyn had a good feel to it and was a lovely space to be in. The furnishings were comfortable and the space was calming. Our dogs loved the underfloor heating and we humans did too! Not only this we could see the sea- just about perfect. Thank you

We have holidayed in Sykes cottages on numerous occasions in England and Wales and have never been disappointed and we have already booked a cottage in Cornwall for next year.

The property

Aberporth 1.9 miles.

Perched in the quiet coastal village of Tresaith is this Canadian-style, two-storey annexe.

Cwmberwyn is great for a family seaside escape to the southern edge of Cardigan Bay in Ceredigion.

Find the property on a residential road, boasting incredible sea views throughout a spacious reverse-style interior.

Make your way inside either through the ground-floor porch, or up several stone steps to a first-floor decked entrance, where you can drop your bags off in one of the inviting king-size bedrooms on the ground and first floors, with the first-floor room benefiting from its own en-suite bathroom.

Also on the first floor is a spacious open-plan living space, where you can unwind on the sofa and watch TV as the chef of the group rustles up their best home-cooking in the well-equipped kitchen, fitted with contemporary appliances for all your needs.

Choose to either gather around the dining table, or head out onto the balcony where you can dine alfresco alongside awe-inspiring sea views as you savour a glass of wine and watch the sun set.

Making your way back downstairs, you'll find a sleek shower room with a large walk-in shower, perfect for washing away the sand after a day at the beach.

Explore the peaceful coastal surroundings around the quiet village of Tresaith, home to a sandy beach and a local pub where you can dine out with a spot of pub grub and a refreshing pint before strolling back to the property.

Handy amenities can be found in the bustling seaside village of Aberporth nearby, boasting an impressive range of shops, pubs, cafés, and watersports around the expansive beach and bay.

Take a scenic drive over to the market town of Cardigan for more options, or discover the unique countryside around the area, visiting Teifi Marshes Nature Reserve, and outdoor sports adventure around Cardigan Bay.

Spend a day at the Regency harbourside town of Aberaeron and find the National Trust property of Llanerchaeron, enjoy a night out at the lively university town of Aberystwyth, or venture further afield to the exciting county town of Carmarthen.

With so much to do, you'll never want to leave Cwmberwyn.

About the location

ABERPORTH

Tresaith 1 mile; Penbryn 3 miles; Llangrannog 5.5 miles; Cardigan 7 miles; Poppit Sands 8.5 miles; New Quay 15 miles.

Aberporth is a small town that sits on the southern edge of Cardigan Bay in Ceredigion, renowned for it's fabulous beaches that attract visitors, all year round. There are two beaches that sit between the rocky headlands of Trecregyn and Fathgarreg, separated by a smaller rocky outcrop. Uniquely, at low tide they interlink, but at high tide, they create individual beaches and create great rock pools for the children to play in and explore. Small boats, canoes, and kayaks can easily be launched from the north beach, while the south beach lends itself beautifully for a spot of sunbathing. Close to the beaches, there is a small seaside café, fish and chip shop, and a friendly pub serving good food and drinks. In the village itself, there is a range of shops and takeaway stores. Nestled directly on the famous Wales Coast Path, between the towns of Cardigan in the south, and Llangrannog and New Quay to the north, it is a great base for exploring this glorious stretch of coastline. Venture to Cardigan and discover the town’s many shops, tea rooms, restaurants, pubs, and bustling markets. Visit the nearby themed farm park, spot dolphins from the coastal path, or take a boat trip for the chance to see them up close! Aberporth is a great base for exploring this wonderful part of West Wales, with something to do for all the family.
