We love our cottage and make an effort to furnish it well and make it comfortable for our guests. We hope you have a wonderful stay. Guest access We are lucky to have 15 acres of meadows and woodland in the valley, so there is always at least one private meadow for you to walk, picnic or just relax by the river. There are also plenty of wonderful walks and places to visit in the local area. Betty’s Cottage also has its own fenced garden which is next to but separated by a fence from it’s sister cottage, Troedyrhiw Cottage. (The two cottages are adjacent to each other but detached with their own gardens.) Please let us know if you are bringing your dog (s). We also ask you to be mindful that Betty's is a little, cosy one bedroom cottage with a wooden staircase down to the ground floor (where you access the garden) when you are thinking about bringing your dog. Other things to note * There is plenty of parking at the cottage. * We don't provide EV charging facilities at the cottage but there are charging points in the New Road carpark in Newcastle Emlyn (4 miles). * This is a no smoking holiday cottage. * Log basket full with kindling & fire lighters for guest on arrival. Extra logs can purchased from local CK supermarket in Newcastle Emlyn or Cardigan Bay Trading in Newcastle Emlyn (who are the best for logs and kindling atm). * Mobile signal in the valley is weak on non existent (unless you have EE or Virgin mobile who do get signal here) therefore we provide a landline phone in the cottage so you can call UK landline and mobile numbers. (We request that our guests are mindful not to use the phone for over an hour per call, as the call charge increases a lot once an hour is up). As soon as you drive up the hill you will pick up all mobile signals. You will find lots of info/brochures/maps and leaflets in the cottage to plan days out, book restaurants and activities etc. There is a DVD player in the cottage and a good selection of DVD's.

Please do not let her/ him on the furniture. Please do not leave your pet unattended in the cottage or garden. Please clean up after your dog. *Please note that the 'roads' around the cottage are very rural, this is part of the charm of the valley and is great for cycling and walking. However, please do go carefully if you have a low car... Probably best to leave the Lamborghini at home! (If you are nervous of driving on small, winding country lanes Betty’s may not be suitable for you .) * Tesco and Morrisons will deliver shopping to the cottage. * There is a flight of wooden stairs that are not carpeted, the stairs are reasonably steep and narrow so care should be taken. Also, we are in the valley so there is a slight slope to walk from the parking area to the cottage. * If you accidentally leave any items behind we ask that you send us a stamped addressed envelope of the appropriate size for their return if needed. * There is a washing machine and clothes drying rack in the cottage. An iron and table top ironing board is in the utility area.
