A Perfect Seaside Getaway at Bodarfor!What an absolutely wonderful stay at Bodarfor (By The Sea)! We've just returned from our trip and can't stop talking about what a perfect base it was for our holiday.The location is its biggest asset. Being "by the sea" is no exaggeration—we had incredibly easy access to the local beaches, which made morning walks and sunset views an effortless and beautiful part of our day. The village itself is charming and has everything you could need. We particularly enjoyed the local bakery (the fresh pastries were a daily treat!) and the fish and chip shop, which was genuinely top-notch.The cottage itself was just as lovely. It was cozy, spotlessly clean, and clearly well-cared for, making us feel at home straight away.A special thank you to the owners—we stayed over the Halloween period, and they had gone to the trouble of putting up tasteful and fun decorations. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch that we all really appreciated. It showed a level of care that made our stay feel extra special.We couldn't have asked for a better holiday home. If you're looking for a charming cottage in a perfect location with owners who go the extra mile, we wholeheartedly recommend Bodarfor!

Wonderful. The cottage is perfect, everything you need to have a lovely holiday, rest, break from the world, garden was lovely for the dogs. The cottage has a wonderful nautical theme. The spar is two minuets away and a special bakery two doors down, soda bread, cakes, pasties, unfortunatly I put on 2 pounds. The beach is a short walk away. The people in the village were all very pleasant, in all a lovely holiday.
