These dog friendly holiday cottages in mid-west Wales are set on the edge of the Cambrian Mountains in a breathtaking location. For those looking for adventure and self-catering holidays in Wales there are endless beautiful walks for children, adults and dogs alike. A narrow gauge steam railway is nearby; swimming, dolphin spotting, Red Kite feeding and bird watching, mountain biking, fly fishing, horse riding and viewing historic mines are amongst the attractions local to the holiday cottages. Of course the Internet is unlimited for those who need it. While our cottages are pet and dog friendly, owners are encouraged to read the relevant FAQs on the website to ensure their dog’s holiday needs will be met too! For some, this low priced self-catering holiday is enhanced by the two dog friendly cottages joined internally by double doors.…you can have a noisy cottage with games, DVDs and the like and a quiet cottage where you can be still and drink in the view. They are wonderful for two families wanting space for ten and yet times apart from each other. The fantastic location of these self-catering cottages in west Wales means that you can enjoy the kind of holiday you want to – whether it is a break full of walking with the dogs or trekking; or simply recharging your batteries and taking a step back from it all. Both holiday cottages come fully equipped with king size beds as well as comfy twin rooms – so after a long day of walking with the dogs and outdoor activities, you will be sure of a good night’s sleep. But before you turn in for the night, you can take full advantage of the wonderful views that mid-west Wales has to offer on the balcony terrace, while enjoying a home cooked dinner or glass of wine on a summer’s evening. The international dark sky park is nearby so star-gazing is an unforgettable experience. For those cold and dark nights, there are a range of options to keep you entertained as you enjoy the heat of the stove, including Sky TV, DVDs, audio system, surprisingly fast internet and a good selection of games. Whether it’s a romantic countryside retreat or a large family/group walking holiday in Wales – the cottages cater for everyone (even your dog!). During the Covid 19 pandemic, we are not allowing another booking to arrive on the day of your departure to ensure there is good time for deep cleansing of the property. Full details of the cleaning process are on FAQ page of Welsh Hideaways website. The space Ty Mari and Penroc are set in a stunning landscape at the interface of wild mountains and wooded valleys where sheep farming, forests and mountain top views make this one of the beautiful hidden secrets of Wales. These attractive 19th century cottages are on the outskirts of a tiny village called Cwmystwyth: they are situated 100 meters along a rough track from the main road. There is a terrace of homes either side of the track, with Ty Mari at the end and Penroc at right-angles on the headland. The fenced garden area is very limited and is shared between the cottages but there is just space for cars, sunbathing, two picnic tables and two barbecues! Cwmystwyth is seventeen miles inland from Aberystwyth along the mountain road to Rhayader. There are excellent walks through the beautiful scenery that surrounds the cottages that includes hilltops, waterfalls, woodland, forests, dams and caves. The Ystwyth valley is one of the RSPB’s successful breeding sites for Red Kites and there is fishing and pony trekking nearby. Sandy beaches are just over half an hour away and there is a narrow gauge railway from Devil’s Bridge to Aberystwyth. Until you get away from the noise of traffic and the telephone you won’t realise how hectic everyday life can be. Family games in front of the fire, or sitting in a window seat with a good book and red kites circling overhead soon recharges the batteries. Guest access Both cottages in their entirety along with lovely detached garden room. Other things to note There is no shower in Penroc, but there is a hand-held shower on the bath tap. Ty Mari has a shower over the bath. Beams and low ceilings may be an issue for tall people.
