Between Devil's Bridge and Tregaron in Mid Wales lies a little community called Pontrhydfendigaid. The settlement is located in a picturesque rural area on the edge of the Cambrian Mountains. It is situated on the River Teifi and is home to a neighbourhood store, the Red Lion, and the Black Lion, two close pubs. George Borrow, who penned Wild Wales in 1854, praised Devil's Bridge, which has long been a popular tourist destination. This well-known bridge, which crosses the Mynach, a branch of the River Rheidol, is special because it really consists of three separate bridges. The first was constructed around 1100, the second over it in 1753, and the third in 1903. Before it enters the River Rheidol, the River Mynach descends 90 metres (300 feet) in five steps down a narrow and steep gorge. This is where the bridge is located. Jacob's Ladder is the name given to the flight of stone steps that descend to the waterfall's lowest bridge. The site has viewing areas, and there is a hotel and cafe for refreshments at the end of the inclining walk. This region is known for walking, cycling, fishing, and bird watching, as well as excursions to the picturesque Cardigan Bay shoreline with its rugged cliffs and sandy beaches. It also has great scenery and animals.

Clean , spacious, well equipped, very comfortable bed and chairs had a lovely sleep every night. The owner called on us on our first day to check everything was okay was very helpful. The scenery from the front window and garden was spectacular it looked over field and hills in the distance. We have never stayed at a bungalow with such good views, would sit outside at teatime and watch the red kites flying over the fields in the distance. The garden is closed in but you need to check if it is safe for your dog. Nearby village of Tregaron has a good supermarket. There is a nature reserve across the road which you can walk in. The drive to Aberystwyth was beautiful and the town had everything you could want, beach, castle, harbour,shops, library and several large shops including M&S and Tesco.
