Tasteful cottage loved the rolltop bath & Log Fire
By The Welshie's on 03-Jan-2026We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Arwel. The cottage is wonderful. I love all the original features and it is very tastefull decorated! Our favourites were the rolltop freestanding bath and log fire. Thank you for the little extra’s left for us. We have had a peaceful stay. The information on local area and things to do came in handy & we did the 45 min walk to the local beach. My highlight was watching the red kites feed! Thank you for allowing us to stay.
A sunny Christmas in Wales
By Michelle & Calon on 25-Dec-2025Lovely little cottage. Had everything we needed. I was super lucky with the weather – a sunny Christmas in Wales! Lots of Sunny Windy beach walks with my dog. Norma was very helpful with the heating and even got hold of a cone for my dog which was much appreciated. Many Thanks

Thank you for such a lovely holiday cottage
By Mark & Mary on 03-Oct-2025Enjoyed a very comfortable stay at Arwel. Fortunate with the weather so were able to make the most of walking the coastal path. Its particularly stunning between Cwmtydu and Llangrannog. Loved lounging on the top terrace and the log burner in the evening. The kitchen is well-equipped for self catering, although we did find the cooker had a mind of its own – not sure if we got the hang of setting the clock on it! The location is very peaceful and so handy for walking our 2 welsh springers! Thank you for providing such a lovely holiday cottage.
Birdsong and River flowing
By Laura, Matt & Dave on 28-Aug-2025A peaceful relaxing comfortable cottage. We slept very well with the sounds of birdsong & river flowing in the morning. Beautiful views! The log fire made our evenings special while playing board games & watching TV. The wonderful rolltop bath was an added bonus. The kitchen has everything you need & more! We cooked every evening as we didn’t want to leave the cosy cottage. We visited some lovely beaches and walked to the secret beach, which our dog enjoyed. Can’t wait to come back!
