What our customers say about their holidays

  Really enjoyed our break - 4 adults and two grandchildren.

  Quite a few issues when we arrived, light bulb missing in the bedroom bedside lamp, no plug in ensuite bathtub, door didn't stay closed in bedroom, tumble dryer tripped out the electrics, downstairs shower temperature couldn't be adjusted. The owners happily came to inspect and some of the issues were rectified. We were also surprised we didn't receive a welcome pack as this is usual in all sykes cottages we have previously stayed in, however the owners did provide a dozen eggs at no charge. As we were leaving we had to retrieve a toy from behind a sofa, It was very dusty and didn't appear to have had a deep clean for a while. Mr and Mrs Evans were very friendly and were helpful with advice on where we should visit. The grandchildren loved their stay and thanks to Mr Evans for allowing our eldest grandchild to sit in his tractor and explore the farm.We had the pleasure of seeing one day old piglets, great base to stay for exploring the area around Cardigan and further afield.

  We were made to feel very welcome from the moment we arrived.

  The house was fantastic and is positioned close to lots of interesting places to visit. We had a look around the adjoining property and it would be fantastic to rent both if there was a big group. The downstairs bedrooms and wet room meant it was truly accessible for wheelchair users. Our daughter loved visiting the piglets and new calf that were born during our stay. We had an Asda grocery delivery which made life easy, but there are a few convenience stores in the local town. There are plenty of great places to eat nearby too (The Daffodil, La Calabria, Riverside cafe, The Bunch of Grapes, Pachamama [for Asian takeaway] and Nahar Indian). You definitely need to be prepared to drive to places though as there is nothing within walking distance, as the farm is in a beautiful rural setting. We look forward to visiting again in the future!

  The cottage on a working farm is really lovely, with en-suite in every bedroom, and a ground floor wet room for disabled access, which assisted my disabled grandson who is a wheelchair user and my grand daughter who has mobility problems.

  It is very clean and has a big kitchen, a utility cupboard with washing machine and dryer,TV's in all 4 bedrooms and lounge area and a table that seats 8 people. There's plenty of space for your clothes etc. Teifi, (Mr Evans), was kind enough to take us and our 4 grandchildren to see their cows and calves. Apparently, they don't keep pigs any more. The cottage is a good base to see sights, beach, Adventure etc. However, the weather was terrible for 3 days out of 7 days. We had to buy the children some indoor activities such as colouring books, puzzles, games and DVD's; it did state that there was games, CD's etc available and an enclosed patio, but there was none of these items, except for scrabble. We enjoyed our holiday, and a huge thank you to the owners, Mr & Mrs T Evans-:)

  The heating and hot water was stated as included but was in fact controlled by the owner in the adjoining property. This was not a problem but in the winter months could be a bit awkward. The property only had one means of escape from the building. I would suggest a fire door should be fitted between the kitchen and the entrance door. None of the upper floor windows were labelled as emergency exit windows I would suggest clear labels be shown on escape windows if they can be used as escape windows. I do not recommend holiday destinations or cottages to friends or family as my idea of a good holiday may not be someone else’s idea of a great holiday.

  Thanks again for a lovely stay. The cottage is lovely, well equipped and in a very peaceful location. The grounds are amazing and having an opportunity to see the pictures of how the house and gardens were developed shows a true labour of love by Pixie and her family. We have had a great time exploring the area and beyond albeit with a couple of tail end of hurricanes to put a dampener literally on the weather. Given so, nothing better to experience the force of nature and did not hinder us in getting out and about. Thanks for a lovely stay and also to Pixie who even in bad weather is ensuring the gardens are looking magnificent.
