About this property
Escape to the coast in this idyllic cottage in Aberporth. The property sleeps six guests and is perfect for families and groups of friends seeking a traditional seaside holiday – you’ll be just 300 metres from a glorious, sandy beach. From the cottage, enjoy day trips to the coastal resort of New Quay (15.5 miles) and the historic town of Cardigan (6.5 miles). In the evenings, enjoy family BBQs in the courtyard garden or snuggle up in front of the cosy wood burner.
Follow the garden path to the front door of this sweet coastal cottage, and kick off your sandy shoes in the hallway. Inside, the reverse-level holiday home feels bright and airy. Colourful accessories and striking exposed beams sit against cool-toned stone walls, and the original sash windows frame picturesque views across the valley. On the ground floor you’ll find the three bedrooms, all with a subtle seaside theme, and the family bathroom. Upstairs, you’ll find a stylish living area, set under a vaulted ceiling. Get cosy in the lounge area, snuggled by the wood burner, and come together around the dining table for memorable mealtimes. There’s also a balcony for sipping a sundowner on a summer’s evening. A separate kitchen and a shower room complete this delightful seaside retreat. Outside, relax in the enclosed courtyard, which has furniture and a BBQ for outdoor entertaining.
Aberporth is home to two fantastic sandy beaches, both with sheltered waters for bathing. Fabulous coastal walks branch away from the village, with the stretch towards Tresaith being particularly picturesque. The nearby town of New Quay makes a lovely day out. Spend a relaxing afternoon here, wandering along the quayside and looking for dolphins playing off the shore, or perhaps hop on one of the boat trips to explore the heritage coast from the water.

Mrs Bunting
A beautiful cottage, thoughtfully planned in a peaceful location by the sea with lots of wildlife to see and hear from the doorstep. Gary and Iolanda have thought of everything! Our family of 4 had all we needed and were very lucky with the weather. We enjoyed lots of time on Aberporth beach - worth noting it is fairly small and gets busy which our daughter who is autistic found overwhelming at times but the cottage is so close it is easy to pop home for peace, or visit early or late instead. Aberporth had everything we needed and we also enjoyed time in Aberteifi browsing the craft market and chatting to the friendly stall holders. We hope to be back one day, thank you.

Lovely comfortable cottage in a quiet location, but only a short walk to the beach and village (steep hill!) Easy access to coastal walks. Short drive to Cardigan, with interesting castle/house. Plenty of space and nice views across the valley. Lovely sea view from the driveway.

Mrs Stone
This is a lovely property, exceptionally clean and very comfortable. On the negative side, there is a lengthy unmade path from the visitor car parking area to Glyn Y Mor. When I queried car parking arrangements at the property with Original Cottages, they had told me there was a couple of spaces in front of the house - which there is, but not in front of Glyn Y Mor!! The arrival details were not too clear either, the owner's property is quite tucked away at the end of the cul-de-sac, and not easy to see "the hump" referred to.
