Guests say
Ceiliog Bach is a charming, quirky cottage in a stunning, peaceful location with breathtaking sea views and easy access to beautiful beaches and coastal walks. Guests consistently praise the cleanliness, comfort, and well-equipped kitchen, as well as the secure garden ideal for dogs and children. The friendly, welcoming hosts and proximity to local pubs and cafes add to the appeal. While the drive can be a little rough for low cars and shops are a short drive away, the tranquil setting and scenery more than make up for it.
Multiple reviews highlight the cottage as very clean and well-prepared, with no negative comments regarding cleanliness.
The location is universally praised for its stunning sea views, peaceful setting, and proximity to beaches and walks. The only minor note is the distance to shops, but this does not detract from the overwhelmingly positive feedback.
Guests describe the cottage as comfortable, cosy, and warm, with good beds and plenty of space for couples, families, and dogs. One review notes it may be snug for larger families, but overall comfort is highly rated.
The cottage is described as well-equipped, especially the kitchen, with ample utensils and a washing machine. The garden is secure for most dogs, and hot water is plentiful. The only minor issue mentioned is the rutted drive for low cars.

The fitted kitchen is modern and well equipped with everything you need for your stay, and the living space is perfect for socialising, whether you sit down to enjoy a meal, get together for games night or relax and put on the TV. Doors lead out from here to the garden - a lovely little lawned garden where you can sit out and enjoy the stunning views.

We had a fantastic long weekend at Ceiliog Bach. The photos don’t do it justice. Really comfortable and cosy. Great location for the beach and the local village pub. Perhaps just a few tea bags would have made it 100% perfect. Thank you!

Beautiful cottage in the perfect location we couldn’t recommend it more! The owners were so lovely and helpful, and the cottage itself was ideal for both children and dogs. It had everything you could possibly need, and to top it all off the views were absolutely stunning. We will definitely be coming back!

Lovely cottage with great view. 15 minute walk to a beautiful quiet beach. Great for our dogs although had to be careful in garden as sheep over other side of fence. Was fully enclosed but we have big lively dogs. Cottage very warm, shower good, bed comfortable and washing machine handy. Master bedroom downstairs. Owners live next door but did not see anyone while we were there but contactable if needed. Lovely walk to next village along beach and through woods. Great Sunday lunch at Britannia Inn and lovely cafe at Cwm Ivy.
