Claire September 2024

“Beautiful location with an amazing view.”

Bedrooms bright and airy Bathrooms smelly, maybe issues with drains, the far bedroom we didn’t use as en-suite smelt. Describes an adjoining bedroom with en-suite, there wasn’t one. No oven dishes for cooking which made doing family meals very difficult.

- Claire, September 2024

Glad you liked the location. We have been looking into the issue with the bathroom smells and the water board have been doing some work on drains and pipe work locally which should address this issue. There are definitely two ensuite bedrooms at Fronwig, as listed on Sykes website, the main/master bedroom and the 2nd ensuite. There is also a bathroom with shower and loo etc on the first floor, as well as a shower room with toilet and a separate toilet on the ground floor, as we wanted to be sure there were enough facilities for larger groups. There is a range of large pans for cooking in the oven but I will add some more bowls/dishes to ensure that all styles of cooking can be accommodated. Thank you for pointing this out. Property Owner

“Stunning property with every conceivable facility.”

The location is perfect and surprisingly quiet in the height of peak season considering its proximity to the centre of New Quay.

- Janette, August 2024

Really pleased you enjoyed your stay at Fronwig and had everything you need, as well as enjoying New Quay. Do visit us again sometime if you fancy another trip to Cardigan Bay! Property Owner
Gordon July 2024

“Absolutely superb from initial arrival where the property was spotless top to bottom, information was perfect regarding the property and the location was amazing.”

Highly recommend staying here and we will stay again. The hosts communicated everything we needed and went above and beyond in levels of service . 10/10 Gordon (12.07-15.07)

- Gordon, July 2024

“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.

- Alison, July 2024

Hi. Thanks for the feedback and we'll take note of your suggested improvements. Glad you liked the location. Property Owner

Jason May 2024

“Absolutely perfect stay.”

Great location. Lovely house, with excellent facilities. Loved the Hot Tub and the downstairs shower was super handy after a day on the beach. Being able to carry SUP boards off the beach and leave in the garden saved a lot of pumping!

- Jason, May 2024

Thanks for the lovely feedback and so glad you enjoyed your stay at Fronwig and had a good time paddle boarding. We are so lucky with the location overlooking the beach and in the centre of the village with all that New Quay has to offer. Hope you'll think of staying at Fronwig again! Property Owner
Tina April 2024

“Stunning property with stunning views.”

We loved our stay at Fronwig, the property itself was beautifully decorated & well maintained with everything we needed during our stay, including very comfy beds. The amazing garden was our favourite as we could sit watching the waves & beautiful coastline, whilst our dog had plenty of space to run around. We even spotted dolphins from the balcony one morning. Excellent location with everything on your door step along with quick easy access to the beach. The owners are lovely, approachable & were on hand to answer any queries we had. The welcome package of biscuits, cakes & wine went down a treat too. We stayed as a party of 6, 2 of which are teenagers who are already asking to go back again.

- Tina, April 2024

Dear Tina and family it was a real pleasure to meet you as our first guests at Fronwig. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and got to see the dolphins and enjoy a bit of sunshine too! It would be lovely to see you again in the future and thanks so much for the wonderful feedback. We really appreciate it. Best wishes John and Victoria Property Owner

The property

A former sea captain's home, Fronwig is a stunning, four-bedroom home, perched in the popular seaside town of New Quay, Ceredigion.

Enjoying a superb location overlooking the beach with exceptional sea views from its contemporary interior and patio/garden, Fronwig is a fabulous pet-friendly choice for a group or family of eight seeking a luxury escape.

The property benefits from one off-road parking space with an electric car charging point, and a generous front garden with a summerhouse, furniture and a wood-fired hot tub, so you can enjoy meals alfresco with a backdrop of the harbour where the resident dolphin can frequently be seen playing in the water.

Be welcomed into the spacious kitchen/diner, where you can conjure up your best dishes, ready to serve at the dining table which offers a lovely outlook of the sea.

After dinner, retire to the sumptuous seating in the sitting room, also benefitting from sea views, and select a much-loved film from the TV as the evening’s entertainment; on cooler evenings, light the woodburning stove for a relaxing ambience.

Completing the ground floor is a handy utility with a washing machine, a cloakroom, and a stylish shower room, where you can freshen up after spending a day at the beach.

Follow the stairs up to the first floor, where a beautiful bathroom awaits, where you can freshen up with your choice of bath or shower, before choosing from one of four well-appointed bedrooms, a king-size with en-suite, a double with en-suite, and two twin bedrooms, with elevated coastal views.

Explore the town, where you can treat your loved ones to a meal at the welcoming Pepper Pot Bar and Grill, The Sea Horse Inn, or The Old Watch House, embark on a fishing trip to hook your catch of the day, spend a day on the golden sands of New Quay Beach, visit the Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre, or experience an unforgettable day with a dolphin watching boat trip.

Next stop is Aberaeron, where you can hike along the Allt y Graig Woodland Trail, take a dip in the Aberaeron Swimming Pool, dine at The Hive and The Stubborn Duckling, or spend an afternoon at the beach.

Venture further to Cardigan, home to the Welsh Wildlife Centre, a remarkable castle, and the Teifi Marshes Nature Reserve.

For a luxury getaway, choose Fronwig.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £450.
