About this property
Ideally positioned within the picture-perfect village of Cilgerran, Avalon is a traditional ground-floor bungalow providing a superb base from which to explore the incredible Pembrokeshire coast and countryside. Set across the ground floor, this accessible dwelling presents the perfect backdrop for a romantic escape to Wales for one or two couples. Step inside the warm and welcoming ambiance of the homely sitting room, where you can enjoy a quiet night indoors as you snuggle close to loved ones and discuss your upcoming adventures. Continue the evening with a mouth-watering meal in the traditional dining room, lovingly prepared in the well-equipped kitchen hosting all the essential appliances for a smooth-sailing stay. Retire to one of the two well-appointed bedrooms, each of which can be found boasting a double bed and an abundance of storage, and are served by a handy wet room that lies across the way. Make the most of the well-manicured garden during summer months, as you delight in dinner alfresco out on the picnic table and embrace your peaceful countryside surroundings as you listen to the tranquil sounds of the Afon Teifi and views of the castle and gorge. Take advantage of canoeing, paddle boarding and fishing in the nearby river, lake and sea. See the very best of Pembrokeshire with days spent wandering the beautiful woodlands of Coedmor National Nature Reserve, or stopping by the incredible Ffynone Waterfall. Challenge yourself to an exhilarating hike or bike ride through Carnedd Meibion Owen, or travel to the popular town of Cardigan for a fun-filled day by the coast. Take a tour of the imposing 12th century fortress of Cardigan Castle, or explore the enchanting ruins of St Dogmaels Abbey before heading to the soft sands of Poppit Sands Beach for a relaxing afternoon stroll. Meet the exotic residents of the Welsh Wildlife Centre, or venture down to Kilgetty for a day at Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo. Just a pleasant drive away lie the medieval remains of Laugharne Castle and the breath-taking National Trust site of Ragwen Point. For the ultimate escape to Wales, be sure to book a stay at Avalon.
The wonderful village of Cilgerran rests on the banks of the Afon Teifi within the beautiful county of Pembrokeshire. Within easy touring distance of the popular towns of Cardigan and Newport, it's little wonder this idyllic community has become a favourite amongst many holiday makers. The village is complemented by a quintessential Post Office with a well-stocked shop, as well as three characterful pubs and an imposing historical castle.

Kathryn
Dai was so helpful and we were so grateful for the lovely welcome pack. Cilgerran is in an ideal spot for exploring. The village shop sells everything and the staff are so friendly. We loved Poppit Sands and had the best fish and chips in Aberaeron. Loved our stay at Avalon and would highly recommend it.

Thankyou for the generous welcome pack. Avalon is Cilgerran which is a pleasant village close to Cardigan. We were lucky to have good weather and spent a number of days on the spectacular coastal path. Well recommended.
