Our second stay in this 5* cottage
By Jenny and Dave on 27-Jun-2026Our second stay in this 5* cottage. Everything you could want for a fab holiday. Thank you for allowing us to bring 5 dogs. One nutty spaniel and 4 dachshunds. The welcome pack is second to none. The views are to die for and the paddock for the dogs was brilliant. We didn’t get to explore much as the weather was way too hot for us and the dogs, but we still had a great time. Plenty to entertain us, views, bird table, paddock, Perfect. Jenny and Dave with Bandit, Flynn, Griff, Nancy& Tilly June 2026
Our tenth stay in this magical place.
By Simon and Lucy on 30-May-2026Our tenth stay in this magical place. We absolutely love it here and have had a wonderful week. The weather has been incredible, so we have been out on the field playing every day and had plenty of barbecues! So lovely to see the animals in the surrounding fields too – Lily’s made friends with the cows. Looking forward to our next visit in August already! Simon, Lucy, Lily(4) and Tommy (1) and Louie and Sky the black Labradors. May 2026

By Julie and Peter on 21-Mar-2026Another lovely stay in this peaceful setting. Always a warm welcome and everything here for a wonderful stay.

Our first visit
By Clair, Niall & Matt on 09-Nov-2025Our first visit, we came to find peace and quiet away from the fireworks for our reactive dog and what a peaceful haven it is, beautiful cottage and what a welcome hamper! Everything is so well thought out, the sofas and beds are so comfortable. The dogs loved the garden. I even enjoyed washing up at the kitchen window with all the lovely birds, we were often visited by woody woodpecker and lots of red kites too. We saw dolphins in New Quay and the starling murmuration at Aberystwyth -, amazing! Paul was a perfect host and even pulled us out when we got stuck in mud! Thanks Paul. We will definitely be back! Clair, Niall & Matt – Fern & Buster 1st – 9th November 2025Y
