  Our holiday was perfect.

  The cottage was just as we imagined from the pictures; spacious, comfortable, tastefully furnished and exceeded our expectations with its stunning views across the lush countryside towards the sea. We could wake up to the views and be in the moment, especially enjoying the warmth of the conservatory enjoying the peace and changing colours of the sea. Magnificent. My mother, having reduced mobility appreciated the space in the cottage. The information book had some excellent details on walks from neighbouring coastal villages never more than 30/40 mins drive away with stunning coastal walks including wheeler friendly access. Fay also gave us some useful car parking tips. The sea was also surprisingly warm to swim in, which was a bonus for me. The wild life along the coastal path was abundant in bird life and a myriad of colourful flora. So peaceful too; with the comforting sound of the sea. The coastal path from the cottage was my favourite; if you go left past the private coves you hardly see a soul. I met one person, who claimed she was a druid in the woods. Always time when walking for that unexpected moment. Was quite surreal. Appreciated the tranquility and beauty of the nature around us. My mum even surpassed herself with her walking sticks. Furthermore, we had a wicked cream tea with scones and Welsh cakes in the coracle village near Newcastle Emlyn. A note to Fay, the friendly owner, on our last day when clearing up, we spotted an iron in the corner cupboard next to the sink in the kitchen. Just wanted to assure her that there is an iron in the house. I would like to return again one day, it’s a long way from Slovakia though. My husband was born in Wales and his father has written quite a few books on Wales; the latest book is: ‘ For Britain See Wales’ by Joe England. A very interesting and informative book.

  First thing to say the views from the decking at the rear of the house are gorgeous, the sun rises were glorious and seeing the dolphins leaping was a treat. The house was impeccably clean with all the equipment you could wish for. Although on the main road going to the town/beach etc it's not overly busy so did not disturb sleep and was approx 20 minute walk down the hill to the waterfront. For convenience there is a Costcutter shop close to the house which is well stocked for essentials and a large safe car park slightly further on. There is no direct parking at the house but there is space outside to unload/load your car. The only real downside of the house but can't be helped due to the age of the property is the amount of steps internally, the stairs are quite narrow, curved and have uneven level of steps at the top, only a problem if you are a bit unsteady on your feet. We had a wonderful stay with many an hour playing games, eating meals and gazing at the sea views. We would visit again.

  Reserved this charming cottage for our family Easter getaway.

  Its stunning seaside setting offered captivating ocean vistas. The cottage itself was generously sized and impeccably maintained. Evenings were spent cosily gathered around the crackling log burner in the living room. The well-equipped kitchen facilitated delightful meals enjoyed at the dining table. The indulgent power shower was a welcome luxury after our beach outings. We relished leisurely family strolls along the scenic coastal path, easily accessible through a nearby field. Under the vast night sky, we marvelled at the breath-taking spectacle of stars. Fay, the proprietor, warmly greeted us and gave us a tour of the property. As an added treat, the children had the opportunity to pet Fay's horses and frolic with her dog, Wolfie. Fay was readily available to assist us whenever necessary throughout our 7-night stay. Our time here has etched unforgettable memories of a wonderful family holiday, ensuring that we'll be returning in the future.

  Fronwig is a great location with amazing views.

  For a 5 star property we expected a few more of the basics to be right though. Needs a better equipped kitchen, baking trays for cooking, chipped mugs to be replaced, kitchen roll etc. Hand towel in the downstairs toilet and handwash. The welcome pack was probably the most underwhelming we have ever had, a pint of milk, and a couple of tea bags is a small cost but always appreciated after a long journey, instead of just a bara brith cake. Be prepared to spend a few hours getting the hot tub filled and the water warm. The garden was secure for the dogs (just one section where, if your dog is inclined, by the front gate, they can get on top of the wall and out). The bedrooms are all a great size with basic furnishings. Overall it’s a beautiful spacious house, could just do with a few more home from home comforts for the price. Do take note of the house info about the parking space being tight, it certainly is if you have a big car.

  What a fab house!

  Perfect place for a birthday gathering - we had a wonderful week. It's really refreshing to stay at a house for large groups which is so well equipped - the range and number of glasses alone was a revelation! Everything is so nicely decorated and laid out, clean, tidy, easy to find (apart from a mop, would have been very useful, and maybe a couple more tea towels?) - there was nothing significant that we felt we missed. One thing to note the jets on the wall side of the hot-tub weren't working, and the pool cues/balls were missing from the games room...but honestly, the view, the location, the comfort (especially the fabulous beds) were wonderful. Hugely recommend The Lime Crab on the pier for outstanding chippy tea, and a wander to the little church yard that you can see from the deck. Prepare your thighs for the walk back up the hill from town :) Will certainly be bearing in mind for a return visit - thank you!
