Guests say
Seascape is highly praised for its breathtaking views, peaceful setting, and welcoming hosts. Guests appreciate the well-equipped cottage, comfortable beds, and the tranquil atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and exploring Aberystwyth. The property is dog-friendly and offers direct access to scenic walks. While most reviews are very positive, a few guests noted that the steep walk to town and occasional cleaning issues could be improved. Overall, visitors felt at home and enjoyed thoughtful touches during their stay.
Most guests found the property clean and tidy, with crisp linen and a well-kept environment. However, a small number of reviews mentioned areas needing more attention, such as skirting boards, kitchen trays, and some pet hair. These comments suggest cleanliness is generally good but could benefit from more consistent deep cleaning.
The location is widely celebrated for its stunning views over Aberystwyth and Cardigan Bay, peaceful surroundings, and proximity to scenic walks. The only drawback mentioned is the steep, narrow road leading to the property, which some guests found challenging, but most felt the views and tranquillity more than made up for it.
Guests consistently describe the cottage as cosy, comfortable, and relaxing, with special mention of the beds and peaceful atmosphere. The property is well-suited for restful breaks, and visitors felt at home during their stay.
The cottage is well-equipped with everything needed for a pleasant stay, including a good kitchen, games, books, and outdoor space. A few minor maintenance issues were noted, such as a brief power cut and some tired furniture, but overall, facilities are highly rated.
Many guests mention thoughtful touches such as welcome packs and gifts, as well as the hosts’ friendliness and helpfulness. Please note that while these gestures are frequently mentioned, they are not guaranteed for every stay.

Myself and my husband stayed at Seascape in September 26. You couldn’t ask for better hosts than Simone & Alan. Nothing was too much trouble even taking us into town one night because I wanted a night off from driving. The property itself was clean, crisp clean linen on the beds which you won’t want to get out of as they are so comfy) and a welcome gift of wine, crisps and milk, not to mention a great selection of teas along with coffee and sugar. Looking out of the big windows, Aberystwyth town and the coast of Ceredigion Bay were spread out before you. As for the giant fur baby, thank you for sharing one of your morning walks with me. Thank you Simone and Alan, we had a wonderful week. ❤️

We had a fantastic week at Seascape. The cottage is cosy, clean, and has everything you need — but the views are what really make it special. It’s peaceful, well located, and just a lovely place to come back to after exploring Aberystwyth. We felt totally at home and would happily book it again.

Beautiful bungalow with absolute stunning views. Hosts were incredibly helpful, friendly and inviting. Property had everything you could want from a break away, and lots of lovely coastal walks on your doorstep. We had the most amazing time. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is the property could do with a deep clean, other than that, everything was spot on!
