One of two properties in an idyllic location near Tregaron (5 miles), this cottage is perfect for friends or families looking for a peaceful holiday. Tregaron is an old market town steeped in history with Roman roads used by 18th-century drovers, relic forts and standing stones. Stop for a bite to eat at one of the many pubs and browse the shops.

Head west to explore Lampeter (6 miles) with its restaurants, organic shops, and Welsh Quilt Centre. Head up the stone steps by the side of the trickling stream and enter this beautiful property with a distinctly home-from-home feel. Step into the lovely open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner.

The kitchen has everything you need to prepare a hearty meal or delicious picnic. Gather around the dining table and plan tomorrow's adventure. Snuggle up on the sofa in the lounge area to chat or watch a film on the Smart TV.

The property has two king-size bedrooms, both with an en-suite shower room. The property has been thoughtfully and tastefully furnished and is an absolute pleasure to holiday in. Head outside and unwind in the enclosed garden.

Enjoy sitting out on the paved patio with a table and chairs, fire up the BBQ, dine alfresco on fine days, and star gaze on clear nights. Explore the grounds, including the gardens, woodland, wildlife pond and stream. Visit one of the many attractions in the local area.

The gold mine at National Trust Dolaucothi is 9 miles away and is perfect for anyone who has ever fancied panning for gold. The regency coastal town of Aberaeron is a real gem, boasting a pretty harbour, remarkable architecture, and beautiful beaches. There are walks for all abilities within 20 miles, and Llanerchaeron Riverside trail and Abergorlech Forest are worth a visit.
