Guests say
Welshouse is a beautiful and quiet cottage in Newcastle Emlyn, praised for its lovely setting and welcoming owners. Guests have enjoyed the local scenery, including stunning beaches and wildlife. The accommodation is comfortable, well-equipped, and clean, with a special mention of a welcome package. It's a bit remote, requiring a drive to local attractions, but offers a peaceful escape.
The cottage is consistently described as very clean and well looked after, indicating high standards of cleanliness.
While the cottage offers a lovely setting and proximity to beaches and local attractions, its remoteness and the need to drive to places have been noted, suggesting a good but not perfect location.
Guests found the accommodation comfortable and well-equipped. However, there is a mention of noisy stairs at night, which suggests a slight compromise on comfort.
There is not enough information on the overall state of facilities and maintenance, aside from a well-equipped accommodation and a suggestion for a sign to identify the property.
The owners are noted for their welcoming and helpful nature, and a welcome package was mentioned, which reflects thoughtfulness. However, it should be noted that such gestures are not guaranteed.

The owners were welcoming and helpful. The accommodation was comfortable and well equipped. It would be helpful to put up a sign to identify the property from the road. The stairs are beautifully made but are very noisy. Would benefit from a carpet to reduce the noise especially during the night.
