“A wonderful, peaceful stay at a very private and spacious cottage.”

Above and beyond with attention to detail, we felt as if we were staying on a retreat and thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub each evening, after walking the adventurous coastal paths. Special thanks to Joy and Rod for a warm and welcoming stay, treats on arrival and safe space for our dog Grace.

Yusuf October 2024

“This is our second visit - we first visited back in 2014 very soon after Yr Hen Llaethdy started and obviously back then everything was prestine and new.”

10 years on everything is exactly as I remember. It goes to show the effort the owners put in to running this place - everything was exceptional as expected and the personal touches left for us are the best we have experienced through many UK holidays. Many thanks - we will be back again!

- Yusuf, October 2024

Thank you for providing feedback. We were thrilled to see you again, and meet your delightful daughter. It is a privilege to host guests whilst you make memories. Property Owner
Martin September 2024

“We arrived on Monday 16th September 2024 and departed on Saturday 21st.”

We struggled to find the location using our Sat Nav, however” what 3 words “ is a free app to download onto your phone and will take you straight there. Rod & Joy the owners live next door and are lovely friendly people. This location is central to most areas. The accommodation is very comfortable and has everything you could possibly need including a hot tub. The Sykes pictures do not do this accommodation any justice. The under floor heating works well from thermostats in each room.

- Martin, September 2024

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and the facilities. Property Owner

Plenty of places within 25 minutes to visit by car. Peaceful and private. The hot tub was loved by all and it was nice that the space outside was totally secure for our small dog.

“A perfect Welsh getaway.”

The cottage is cozy and well-maintained, with a fully equipped kitchen and comfortable bedrooms. The living area is spacious, with comfortable seating and a lovely fireplace. The highlight was the hot tub, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The location is ideal, close to several beaches, villages, and historic sites. It was a peaceful escape, offering tranquility and a touch of luxury. Highly recommended!

“I have never experienced such comfort and welcome.”

The cottage covers every aspect you would want whilst away. There was so much thought and care gone into the design of the property and the products available within. There was a welcome bag with some lovely gifts, leaflets for places to go and a xx luxury spa bath and hot tub. Will definitely be going back soon.

“Superb. The property is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, inside and out, comfortable, clean, warm (under floor heating), had everything you could need and the hot tub was so so welcome, comfy and larger than average.”

You can tell the hosts really care about you having a good experience and not just in it for business. One of the nicer places I’ve stayed and would be very fortunate to return. Pack wellies and flip flops!

Kenny March 2024

“Great accommodation.”

The second time we had been here and was great to be back. Loved everything about the place: spotless, loads of appliances in kitchen, comfy beds, great shower, safe outdoor space for the dog and the luxury of a hot tub - ideal for just relaxing and reading a book. Also enjoyed all the places around including PizzaTipi in Cardigan, the Ship Inn in Tresaith (great view of the sea) and further afield St Davids and Narbeth. Just a perfectly great relaxing week thank you

- Kenny, March 2024

Dear Kenny Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We are so glad that your return visit was a success and you enjoyed the cottage and local attractions. Best wishes Rod and Joy Property Owner

“Great place , visited in November , so didn't get to see much of the farm , despite being a working farm it was very quiet , and with a private courtyard , covered outdoor seating and hot tub , perfect for the Welsh weather.”

Inside is something else , a fully equipped kitchen, large lounge area and two generous bedrooms, everything was clean and comfortable .We were greeted on arrival and shown round then left to ourselves , perfect for us . Our hosts were inconspicuous , but there when we needed them , Thanks for a great stay.

Alice September 2023

“We had an absolutely great stay with our two sausage dogs.”

The house was immaculately clean and tidy, and had everything we needed for a weeks stay. The house is beautifully decorated and cow themed! The welcome pack was great and included some lovely Welsh food and snacks, and even included a dog pack. We will definitely be recommending this to our friends and family, we had a 10/10 stay here! Genuinely couldn’t fault anything.

- Alice, September 2023

Graham August 2023

“Could not recommend enough!”

Everything was just perfect for us. From being on the farm.. we loved interacting with the cows and the sheepdogs (Jess & Meg) to the spacious cottage itself. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the hot tub was a huge hit with our 10 year old (and us!) Joy and Rod were the most perfect hosts, they made us feel extremely comfortable and relaxed for our entire time with them. The "Welcome" pack was extremely thoughtful, even our dog had gifts to welcome her to the cottage. And don't worry if you forget things like shampoo or teabags, because the supplies that Joy and Rod have put in place to cater for such scenarios are amazing! 100% recommend. We will definitely be returning!

- Graham, August 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and the farm experience. Best wishes Rod and Joy Property Owner

It was a pleasure to see you again and be part of your 20th wedding anniversary. Si glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. Rod and Joy Property Owner
Heather April 2023

“Wow! What a find!”

The cottage is much larger than it appears in the photos, and beautifully presented inside and out and spotlessly clean. We were very lucky with the weather over the bank holiday weekend, we brought our portable bbq with us and had dinner each evening outside in the lovely garden, which the sun didn't appear to leave all day! The hot tub is huge, and was very much enjoyed. The owners have obviously put a lot of thought and love into making the place the perfect spot to chill out and enjoy the surroundings of the beautiful Welsh countryside. There is even a patio heater for chillier evenings if you want to enjoy more time outdoors. We drove out to Poppit sands (about 25mins), where our pooch enjoyed exploring the sand dunes, and to Cenarth Falls (12 mins) for a riverside and woodland walk, and a little splash about in the shallow waters beside the bridge. Just perfect, we cannot wait to return ❤️

- Heather, April 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide us with feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and that Yr Hen Llaethdy was to your liking. Rod and Joy Property Owner
Ben December 2022

“Had an amazing time here, the decor was homely and very well presented.”

Edmond December 2022

“I stayed here over Christmas with my family and it was a beautiful experience.”

Joy had decorated the place throughout for Christmas and there was a lovely Christmas hamper full of presents for all of us. Yr Hen Llaethdy was one of the cosiest accommodations we ever stayed. It was clean and spacious. The location is perfect for peace and quiet in the countryside. We all had a fantastic time here and will be coming back. Edmond and Kristine

Michael August 2022

“I would recommend staying here to anybody, especially if you have dogs.”

Everything has been thought about in order to make your stay as comfortable and as easy as possible. The property was perfectly clean upon arrival, and our host was incredibly friendly, taking the time to show us around and explain everything before leaving us to enjoy our stay. The hot tub provides that luxury experience that everyone wants from a holiday cottage, and the rest of the amenities really made it feel as though you were getting loads of value for money. We will definitely be coming back!

- Michael, August 2022

Thank you for your feedback. So glad that you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Tracey August 2022

“This cottage was absolutely stunning.”

It was lovely and everything was provided. There was a welcome pack on arrival which was such a thoughtful touch and even a welcome pack for our doggy. The cottage was very private with fully enclosed courtyard. Picturesque surroundings and only a relatively short drive to coastal resorts if Aberporth and New Quay.

- Tracey, August 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and found it a useful base for the coast. Property Owner
Antony July 2022

“Absolutely fantastic stay at this cottage.”

The cottage was perfect for us as a family and had everything we needed. The cottage was on a working farm and the owners were right next door. They met us on arrival and and talked us through everything. The cottage was absolutely spotless. Location wise it is a 20 minute drive to the nearest beach (Aberporth). Other beaches like tresaith, Poppit sands or llangranog are a few minutes further away. Being woken up to the sound of cows in the morning is such fun and our dog loved being on a working farm. The dog was-able to use the fields to go circa walk and to do her business when the cows were not around. What really makes this cottage special are the little touches left by the owners on arrival. I do not have anything negative to say as there really are no negatives. The hot tub rounds things off after a busy day out and about. I really recommend this cottage. Believe me you won’t be disappointed.

- Antony, July 2022

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and appreciate that you chose to stay with us. Rod and Joy Property Owner
Pramila June 2022

“We had a really wonderful time.”

The current photos of the listing on Sykes really does not do it justice. I expected a working farm to be a little noisy in the mornings but it was so quite and peacefull. Covered hot tub and outdoor seating was fantastic as we did have a fair bit of rain and it made no difference at all. The owners were lovely and even came to rescue me when I got a bit lost. Everything was five star, it couldn't have been better. Many thanks.

- Pramila, June 2022

John June 2022

“Yr Hen Llaethdy Is a delightful, comfortable and well equipped property.”

We found it spotlessly clean and VERY well appointed, every conceivable needs seems to have been thought of and catered for. The facilities provided were, quite possibly, the best we have every experienced. The hosts were very welcoming and the welcome items were thoughtful and appreciated. The property is well situated as a base for exploration of South West Wales. We explored from Aberystwyth to the Gower peninsula with no problems whatsoever. Everyone we came into contact with were delightful, very friendly and welcoming. We could not recommend Yr Hen Llaethdy more highly.

- John, June 2022

We are delighted with your feedback, thank you. We are pleased that your first visit to Wales was so memorable and enjoyable. Best wishes and kind regards Rod and Joy Property Owner

Natalie January 2022

“The pictures for this cottage still don't do it justice!”

Every detail has been carefully thought out so you have everything you need, even down to books containing all the best coastal walks for the area. It was warm and cozy and beautifully designed an absolute gem! The private courtyard/ garden area was great with the hot tub! Joy and rod were very friendly and helpful, it was a pleasure to meet them and a pleasure to stay there.

- Natalie, January 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We enjoyed meeting you and are delighted that you enjoyed your stay with us. Property Owner
Anita December 2021

“Absolutely wonderful.”

I dont feel the photos do the cottage justice so don't scroll by! It was still decorated for Christmas and was just gorgeous. The cottage has everything (and more) you could ever need. The welcome hamper was exceptional as was the private courtyard and hot tub - where we welcomed the new year in. Communication with the owners was faultless. Highly recommend as somewhere to recharge and re-connect.

- Anita, December 2021

Thank you for taking the time to send in your feedback. We are delighted that you are enjoyed your stay with us and that the cottage and decorations were to your liking.

“Fabulous cottage and fabulous owners.”

Joy and Rod were fantastic. Didn’t want for anything in this warm and cosy cottage. Hot tub was amazing. Dogs loved the walks and surrounding areas. Highly recommended.

- Ravi, November 2021
Anna November 2021

“We have never been so pleasantly surprised by gifts as we were welcomed into this house.”

A beautiful house, clean, equipped with everything you need and even more. Privacy guaranteed. Very good hosts.

- Anna, November 2021
Miriam November 2021

“ABSOLUTELY Wonderful.”

Everything you could possibly ask for and more all delightfully presented, and the best ever welcome treats. away from Yr Hen Llaethdy many places to visit locally, Newcastle Ellyn - don't miss the castle, worth paying the parking and then walk into town. The iron age fort - Castle Henlys, Cenarth Falls and Popping Sands are just a few. Further afield St Davids and the small harbour at Fishguard (lower). ready to return to the lovely private courtyard garden and hot tub

- Karen, August 2021
Clara July 2021

“Only a negative: the internet in the cottage is very week, there is no router in the actual cottage.”

Being on a farm means listening to the animals raising early in the morning! :) Beds are too soft, but that's a personal preference. Overall the cottage is fabulous, very well equipped and the owners are very welcoming. We had a great week away with our kids and dogs.

- Clara, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We were unaware of the extent of the current WiFi issues in the cottage until after your family left on 7 August as it was not mentioned it to us. Living in rural West Wales, WiFi is not always reliable and over the years we have invested in technology to try and improve connectivity and band-width. As a direct result of this feedback we pursued the matter again and have now benefited from advancement in technology and had 4G installed on 14 September. Our guests who stayed last week have said that the signal is "fantastic" and it extends to the courtyard garden. It is always a great disappointment to us if our guest experience is impaired in any way and we shall always do our utmost to address any shortcomings should they occur. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay otherwise. Property Owner
Hayley July 2021

“We had a wonderful experience staying at Yr Hen Llaethdy.”

The cottage was homely & fully equipped with everything you could need. Joy & Rod were amazing hosts & provided so many extra touches to make our stay special. The farm expeeience was lovely, as a family with a toddler they welcomed us to meet their animals which was great. Our 2 year old loved it. As did us adults. The location was also perfect to explore the surrounding beaches by a short drive which were beautiful. Highly recommend visiting Treisaith & Mwnt. We will be returning after having a fantastic experience

- Hayley, July 2021
Lauren July 2021

“Cottage had everything we needed and more.”

The pictures do not do this cottage justice. Perfect for total relaxation.

- Lauren, July 2021
Rosemary June 2021

“The cottage was beautifully presented , the owners strive to make everything perfect.”

The setting is peaceful, but the price you pay for this is reliance on the car. There is nothing , such as a shop or a pub , that is within walking distance. That aside , there are so many beautiful places to visit. Small seaside towns , Aberporth, and Tresaith are quiet with lovely walks nearby. New Quay, is busier but great for dolphin spotting. The Welsh Wildlife trust at Cilgerran is worthy of a visit. Newcastle Emlyn is 3 miles away , handy for supplies and several pubs . We ate twice at The Bunch Of Grapes and were very happy with the food. We felt very spoilt in our cottage , could find no fault , the hot tub was a treat that we both enjoyed.

- Rosemary, June 2021
John May 2021

“One of the best places we have stayed.”

The hot tub is great and the owners very welcoming and friendly and go above and beyond expectations. Would definitely consider this cottage again.

- John, May 2021
Adam April 2021

“Lovely well needed stay at this well presented , clean and comfortable converted game building.”

Hosts were great , welcome pack was a unexpected treat and the level of detail within the property was fantastic. There were clear instructions for every appliance and winding down in the hot tub after long walks in the day was well received. Would definitely recommend

- Adam, April 2021
Rebecca December 2020

“Brilliant time and everything you need!”

This place far exceeded our expectations and the pictures don’t give the place justice. Situated in a lovely part of wales, there is plenty to do and explore. The hosts are very thoughtful and provide everything you could ever ask for! We would recommend this to anyone looking for a place to stay!

- Rebecca, December 2020
Helen November 2020

“Stayed in Yr Hen for a week all l can say is we loved it.”

The location was suitable to visit a number of different beaches and small towns l never realised how pretty that part of the country was. The cottage itself was amazing everything you need is there it was so comfortable we felt at home within an hour hot tub lovely on a cold night and very private sheltered from the elements. Rod and Joy the owners are lovely and made us feel very welcome. Would highly recommend staying in Yr Hen for a quite relaxing break so hope we get to visit again.

- Helen, November 2020
Dave September 2020

“This property was lovely.”

Rod and joy the owners were lovely and very helpful. They left a welcome pack and even got me a birthday card and present for my birthday. The cottage was fully equipped. The garden area is fully enclosed for dogs. Hot tub was under cover with the rain so was lovely sitting in it no matter what the weather. Would certainly go back again.

- Dave, September 2020
Christine September 2020

Dominic August 2020

“The cottage was lovely and clean.”

It is very well equipped making a self catering holiday with children very enjoyable. The location is peaceful and quiet, however it is a short drive to some fabulous beaches and the coastal path. We were even lucky enough to see dolphins.

- Dominic, August 2020
Elizabeth February 2020

“Lovely little free gifts (local treats) and fresh eggs from the farm to greet you on arrival.”

Hot tub in February was great and easy to use. Bed was super king size and really comfortable, plush linen and Pillows. Very dog friendly. Try the Nags head and the daffodil Inn both great pubs serving delicious food again both except dogs.

- Elizabeth, February 2020
Emma January 2020

“Rod and Joy have thought of everything to make sure that your stay is comfortable.”

There is everything that you need there. Privacy is given for when you are in the hot tub which is rare to find. The cottage is amazing and clean. I would highly highly recommend this property to stay if you want a relaxing get away! Thankyou so much! Emma.

“We had to curtail the start of our holiday due to health problems and Joy showed very kind concern for our situation.”

We eventually managed to arrive for our second week and Joy and Rod very kindly helped us in and out of the car with our luggage. The cottage was very comfortable, clean and well equipped. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the lovely surrounding countryside. We weren't able to travel far but found all we needed by way of shops and cafes in Newcastle Emlyn. We will need to return so that we can take full advantage of all the places of interest in this beautiful area.

Christina April 2019

“My father, husband and I spent a wonderful week staying in this holiday cottage on the farm and none of us wanted to leave I can tell you.”

Joy & Rod are both such lovely, friendly and kind people and honestly cannot do enough for you. The cottages is so well equipped you need not take hardly anything with you at all which is brilliant. The beds are extremely comfortable and the whole layout of the place is lovely, spacious and so clean. We walked in and were shown around by Joy, who made sure we knew exactly where everything was and how it worked. The Welcome goodybag was such a lovely touch and a really nice start to our first evening there. We thoroughly enjoyed the fresh chicken eggs from their chickens with our morning breakfasts and evening omelettes. We were also privileged enough to try some duck eggs as well, which were just as lovely. Rod kindly introduced us to his animals which was one big plus of staying on a farm, seeing the baby calves and lambs as well as the ducks, chickens and friendly farm cats, which will welcome you at the back door each morning. Having the hot tub was so nice after you had been out for a day trip or a long walk. We would just sit back and relax our muscles which was a lovely end to each day. The underfloor heating that warms the whole place is really good, we were warm and snug the whole week we there and it was lovely under foot too. There are so many things about this property which are lovely, the quality of furniture, extremely well equipped kitchen and attention to detail right through is brilliant. There are many places to see around the area but I would recommend:- -Sculptureheaven, a really lovely little place to visit and their cakes and cordials are wonderful. -Cenarth falls just round the corner, you can enjoy a lunch & drink in the pub opposite or a nice ice cream from the little gift shop, while taking a walk down the side of the river listening to the water rumbling over the stones. -Cardigan coastal farm park is a great place to visit if you have children to see the farm animals but even for us, just to enjoy the coastal walk above and see the Seals bobbing their heads up about the water and if you are lucky, a dolphin too. -Visit Caws Cenarth cheese farm and watch through windows into the factory as they make the cheese, separating the curds and whey and then down by hand putting the cards into the cheese moulds. Then walk across to the shop for some tastings, you can't help come away with bags of cheese, it's lovely. -The National Wool Museum just around the corner is quite interesting as well and worth a visit. We also visited a Goldmine, a Waterfall and a Coal mine, which were further afield but all really good too.

“I believe my title says it all.”

Having come back to Yr Hen Llaethdy five times in four years we clearly love this slice of Welsh heaven. Joy and Rod are extremely welcoming, the little personal touches to the cottage make the stay. The gift bag of sweets, jams and little presents for our children was perfect. We had a Chinese from the Super Garden in town, which was amazing and a must have. We visited Pen Y Bryn beach twice and highly recommend it. We will most definitely be returning. Massive thumbs up to Joy and Rod for all their hard work they put in to make Yr Hen Llaethdy a home from home.

- Danielle, August 2018
Mark July 2018

“Lovely cottage.”

Everything provided and more. Hot tub was great fun and relaxing after a day out and about. Plenty of towels plus robes and slippers for hot tub. Owners so friendly and accommodating-left a welcome parcel and milk and water in the fridge. Really spacious and modern. Plus you are on a working farm so plenty off animals about including kittens and ducks and shire horses next door. Really quiet just the sound of sheep and birds. Definitely recommend.

- Mark, July 2018
Paul July 2018

“Rod & Joy very friendly couple made us feel very welcome in there cottage and nothing was too much trouble for them .”

They supplied a lovely goody bag of items on arriving at the cottage which was well beyond there duty and we thought it was an excellent gesture . The cottage is very nicely furnished inside with all mod cons and everything you should ever wish for is in there . Beds are comfy and plenty of towels for you to use. The hot tub in the garden is lovely and we enjoyed going in there most nights . We enjoyed our week and would certainly recommend to family and friends . Mr & Mrs Tweed .

Heather December 2016

“We have just spent Christmas in the most beautiful cottage.”

The trouble you that Joy goes to to ensure your stay is perfect is something you don't see often anymore. Both Joy and Rod were welcoming and friendly without being invasive. The facilities were wonderful, lovely hot tub and spa bath, no expense has been spared on the furnishings, the beds were extremely comfortable and overall feel of the cottage was home from home. You are on a working farm which is wonderful, beautiful little cows as your neighbours, donkeys, baby lambs and horses. So sad to leave but so happy to have booked somewhere like this hidden gem, and have had the most wonderful Christmas.

- Heather, December 2016

Felicity June 2016

“The owners were there to welcome us which after a long journey was great.”

The cottage had all we needed. The location was perfect to go explore other towns and areas with a good time to get back. We loved that once the babies were asleep we could go outside and have a sheltered seated area to chat and relax. An overall wonderful first family holiday. We would definitely go back again and recommend others to stay!

- Felicity, June 2016
Lynn May 2016

We have stayed here twice and without a doubt would come back for a third time.

“Fantastic holiday!”

Yr Hen Llaethdy was spotless and had everything we could possibly need. The owner had thought of everything and the little extra touches made the stay even more enjoyable. The hot tub was a lovely added luxury after a day's walking. The photos do not do the cottage justice- it's much bigger in real life and is decorated to an extremely high standard. Can't wait to visit again!

- Laura, December 2015
David November 2015

“What can we say about the cottage - it was warm, homely and spotlessly clean.”

It was the best equipped we have ever stayed in with a fantastic kitchen and bathroom. The laundry room was very useful as the weather was wet for the whole week. It didn't stop us enjoying the wonderful coastline though and the hot tub was a great place to enjoy a drink in the evening. All in all a fantastic place to stay, we would thoroughly recommend it.

- David, November 2015
Heidi October 2015

“This cottage was beautiful!”

We could not have felt more welcome by the owners and the whole cottage was finished to such a high standard, it felt like being in a luxury hotel. The hot tub was amazing and our six year old loved going on the swing everyday. Would highly recommend to anyone to visit this beautiful place.

The picture of the outside of the property makes it appear quite small but it is deceptively large when you go inside. The whole family loved the hot tub which we made use of every day! The owners were very helpful and were happy to show our children the farm animals. Would definitely recommend this property for a lovely holiday.

- Lisa, April 2015
Paul March 2015

The pictures don't really do it justice as the cottage is stunning; the owners have done an amazing job of making it cosy, yet modern with a green twist. Highlight was the hot tub, hidden in the corner of the garden, perfect for a romantic bath with bubbles, lights off and the LED's on. During the day we had a walk around the farm and met some of the animals, the donkeys were the best! Would we come here again? Oh yes!

- Amar, January 2014
Kelly January 2014

“This cottage was gorgeous!”

I just wanted to pick it up and bring it home to move in to! The owners had thought of everything. Everything you might need was there - kitchen appliances and utensils, a hair dryer in every room, an iron etc. The décor was outstanding, beautifully decorated and designed. Top of the range appliances - a whirlpool bath, hot tub, even a 3D TV! Felt so much at home with so many comforts, we spent several rainy days just chilling at the house. The cottage is on a working farm and we loved seeing the cows and donkeys.
