The owners made us feel very welcome in their lovely house, as it was Easter, eggs were left for the children. This is a very well equipped house, our family of ten were very comfortable. And enjoyed walking down the lane to the river, and had great fun skimming stones etc. The owners also supplied a non slip shower mat when I found it slippy when wet. Great underfloor heating too. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub, which they serviced daily. Comfortable settees too, and a couple of recliners to the side of the house. We went to Aberystwyth beach and on the Funicular railway up Constitution Hill, good facilities there too. Aberaeron Beach was fun for rock pooling, Devils Falls are amazing if you're fit enough for the steep climb back up. Also watched the Red Kites at feeding time. Lots to do in surrounding area. We all had a great time exploring the area. Thank you

A Perfect Countryside Retreat We had an amazing stay at this beautiful cottage on a Welsh farm. The place is absolutely huge, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. With multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, it was perfect for a family or group stay. The hosts were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. The location is ideal—just 15 minutes from town, so you’re close enough to restaurants, pubs, shops, and golf courses, but far enough away to enjoy total peace and quiet. If you’re looking for a spacious, comfortable getaway in a stunning rural setting, this is the perfect spot. We’ll definitely be back!

We had a great stay at Pyllau Isaf. Owners were extremely welcoming and helpful when we needed some assistance and advice. House is prefect for a large family and has enough space to find your own time if needed. Hot Tub is a huge bonus! We would definitely recommend and return if we have the opportunity!!
