Enjoyed a lovely short break at Morolwg whilst visiting our Son at the nearby university. The cottage is very well equipped, with a great kitchen and dining / family area, whilst the front room is very cosy with a great wood burner.Borth itself is a quirky village, with a boutique cinema, pubs, cafe and an excellent chippy all within a short walk of the cottage. Across the road from the cottage is direct access to the beach, although it was a bit wet to spend too much time there. Aberystwyth is only a 10-15 drive, with plenty of things to do, and a drive down the coast is definitely worthwhile.Would highly recommend Morolwg, and will be looking to stay again!

We stayed 3 weeks in January and loved every minute ,Morolwg is a fantastic cottage with every thing you could want for. Fantastic kitchen appliances and all the utensils etc you ever need.We had the fire lit most evenings and spent many hours playing games on the large dining room table. The bedrooms are overlooking the front of the property with sea views, and the beds are really comfy.Although not all the local cafes and takeaways were open, the ones that were served their purpose. The Railway Inn, which is only about 50m from the cottage was very welcoming. Although we didn't eat there they served great Beer.We had our Labrador with us, and we spent hours on the beach at the far end of Borth walking on the sand and then through the sand dunes. You can park right on the beach. Aberystwyth is only a 15 minute drive, for all your shopping needs and there are many villages and attractions in easy reach.We would definitely recommend the cottage and would visit again in the future.Well done to the owners for providing such great holiday accommodation
