Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviews frequently highlight the high standard of cleanliness, with guests pleasantly surprised by the spotlessness even on a working farm. One mention of dust behind a sofa suggests room for improvement, but overall, the property is commended for its cleanliness.
The property's location is praised for its peaceful rural setting and easy access to stunning beaches and local sights. One guest found the hill challenging for dog walking, but this seems an isolated concern.
The cottage is repeatedly described as cosy, warm, and comfortable, with spacious living areas and well-furnished rooms. Guests feel at home and appreciate the family-friendly amenities, including baby gates and highchairs.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with mentions of a well-equipped kitchen and entertainment options. Some minor maintenance issues were reported, but the owners' responsiveness to these concerns mitigates the impact on the overall experience.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident in their warm welcomes and helpfulness. While gifts like eggs are mentioned, they are not a guaranteed offering for all guests. The provision of farm experiences and attention to guest comfort shows a high level of consideration.
About this property
A superb semi-detached cottage near Newcastle Emlyn, set on a working livestock farm in peaceful and picturesque countryside. The smaller of the two cottages on site, but of the same extremely high standard, this quality Newcastle Emlyn cottage boasts a very well-equipped kitchen, and lovely French doors leading you into the spacious sitting area and dining area where relaxing family times can be had by all. Two wonderful double bedrooms have character beams and one has a rather unique doorway leading out onto the original stone barn steps. With one en-suite and two further bathrooms, this wonderful cottage is perfect for all the family. Relax on the paved area outside to enjoy quiet drinks or meals with just birdsong, the lowing of the cows and often just absolute quiet. A cottage of the highest quality in this beautiful part of Wales. Note: This cottage can be booked with Ref. 16579, together they sleep 13.
