  • "Would live here in a heartbeat."

    Fabulously clean, comfortable and furnished. Home from home

    Hello Bronwyn, thank you for taking the time to post your review on Folly. We are so pleased you felt so at home there. Potential guests are unable to read your thoughts on the cottage as you chose not to publish your review. We’re unsure if this was intentional on your part. If so and it is at all possible, would you mind checking to see if you can publish the review retrospectively as it is such great feedback! Thank you Property Owner

  • "Lovely cottage."

    Quiet location. Great beach not far. Garden centre 5mins drive with cafe. The cottage had everything you could think of, catered for dogs with towels,bed , bowel and treats. The garden is amazing There was a clothes maiden but a washing line would be better One of the best cottages we have stayed in .

    Hi Michelle, thank you for giving the cottage and surrounding area such a great review. It’s important to us our guests, and their dogs, enjoy their time at Folly. We are pleased you mentioned Penrath garden centre - one of our favourite places to visit. There is an outdoor rotating clothes line in the coat cupboard with a fixing in the garden but unfortunately we haven’t made that very clear so apologies for that, something to add to the owner’s notes!

    Hello Margaret thank you for your feedback. Really glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Sorry about the disappearance of the recycling bags. We have put a different system in place to avoid this happening again. Property Owner

  • "Very nice cottage - beautifully presented."

    Very relaxing. When an issue came up regarding the kitchen tap, it was managed very well & swiftly by the representative of Coast & Country Holidays in arranging your maintenance/builder to visit & attend quickly. We would like to come back again.

    Thank you for your feedback John. We’re really pleased you enjoyed your vacation and the issue with the tap was dealt with swiftly. We’d love to have you back to stay! Property Owner

  • "This cottage is absolutely lovely!"

    We’ve stayed in a different property for the last 6+ years so we were initially nervous about booking somewhere new. The property suited us down to the ground! The facilities are brilliant, the furnishings are beautiful and the whole place was spotless! The only negative to mention is that there weren’t any plates/cups/bowls for our little ones - would be nice to have a set of plastic/bamboo crockery so that it’s less worry. We absolutely loved our stay and there were tears when we left! Thank you for providing such a lovely place to stay <3

    Hello Michael, what lovely feedback thank you, although we are sorry there were tears on your departure!! We hope you can visit again and we’ll ensure there are suitable plates etc in place for the young ones. Property Owner

  • "Dish washer broke and oven we could not use maybe we did it wrong"

    Hello Allan thank you for your feedback. We are sorry you experienced issues with the dishwasher and oven. We have checked the oven and it appears to be working but in view of your difficulties we will arrange to include instructions for future use. The dishwasher was blocked and should have been cleared before your arrival. We do have a maintenance team who are available to deal with any problems should they arise during our guests stays. We will add their number to the welcome pack. We hope this did not impact your holiday too much and you enjoyed your stay at Folly. Property Owner

  • "Truly excellent as a quiet retreat within reach of the local attractions and secluded beauty spots in this area."

    The cottage is beautifully clean and very well equipped, lacking little in the way of facilities and equipment, the minor exceptions perhaps being Freeview on the TV and the provision of a hair dryer. The location, just up the hill on the edge of Moylgrove, is blissfully quiet, with views across the valley. All in all, a lovely relaxing holiday

    Hello Noel many thanks for your valuable feedback. We are visiting the house soon and will ensure we purchase a hairdryer - something we have overlooked! We had thought the TV had Freeview but we'll look into this. Property Owner

About the location

ST DOGMAELS

Cardigan 1 mile.

St Dogmaels is an ancient and tranquil village nestling peacefully around its ruined abbey at the mouth of the River Teifi on the totally unspoiled west Wales coast. One of its attractions is Y Felin, one of only two working watermills in Wales and retains the machinery installed in 1820. It is thought the mill was originally built by the monks of St Dogmaels' 12th century Abbey. The miller shows how the mill works and bread, flour and cakes can be purchased from the mill or you can enjoy tea and cakes and light lunches in the Coach House Café nearby. An award winning local produce market is held here every Tuesday and is well worth a visit. The village has a pub, a fish & chip shop, a Post Office, a cafe and a small museum at the abbey. There is also a pretty green and a millpond with ducks. Cardigan, a delightful ancient market town, is just over a mile away. This ancient town sits on the estuary of the River Teifi at the base of Cardigan Bay. Its unspoilt townscape and rich heritage provide a nostalgic backdrop to a thriving culture of arts and crafts, events and music festivals. Nearby is the wonderful Poppit Sands where you can relax on sunny days or enjoy invigorating walks in the cooler months, as well as exploring the beautiful Pembrokeshire Coast Path. St Dogmaels is the start or finish of the 186 mile Pembrokeshire Coast Path from St Dogmaels to Amroth. Visit Castell Henllys, the Iron Age Fort where everyone is encouraged to learn the ancient way of living, or visit the wonderful Shire Horse Farm to see how farming was before tractors. The Cardigan Bay dolphins can be seen off the bay on a regular basis and more active pursuits can be found at Cardigan Bay Active, including surfing, wildlife trips or coasteering. With scenic coastal, riverside and countryside walks and an array of other beaches and attractions all close by, this is a perfect holiday location all year round.
