Sleeps 2

1 bedroom

1 bathroom

Bryn-y-Gof (Blacksmith's Hill) is a romantic seaside retreat full of cosy characters just 10 minutes from Llangrannog on Cardigan Bay. Traditional yet cosy, Bryn-y-Gof is set in a 7 acre meadow on the edge of a tiny rural hamlet, a tranquil setting with stunning views. This area is full of the most spectacular wildlife, including seals, dolphins and red kites. The wildflowers are a real sight to behold, too, and the coastline is truly stunning.

Bryn-y-Gof is the perfect base from which to explore this unspoilt haven. You can walk through ancient Bluebell Woods to Cwmtydu and Seal Beach. Join the coastal path and head south along the spectacular coast path to Llangrannog or north to the pretty fishing village of New Quay.

The spacious cottage has beautiful high beamed ceilings and large windows to make the most of the spectacular scenery that surrounds it. The beautiful oak staircase is a steeper pitch than a normal staircase, so care must be taken at all times. In the large, light and airy bedroom you can lie in the bath and watch the foxes as they play about in the field opposite, watch your favourite film or enjoy the crackling of the fire with a nice glass of wine

At least 10 stunning beaches can be found within 15 minutes of the cottage along with castles, historic sites and market towns. There are miles of cycle routes and a fantastic selection of footpaths including coastal, woodland and rural options. Take a boat trip from New Quay or sit on a deserted beach and watch for dolphins and seals.

Enjoy the relaxed, friendly hospitality of this beautiful area. Visit the local farm shop or the local produce market to stock up on award-winning local food and drinks. A warm welcome awaits at the local pubs and restaurants serving great local food and ales too.

“A cosy, lovely well thought out cottage with everything you would need to enjoy your stay. The log burner was very welcome on a cold November evening. The field was enjoyed by our two dogs and us. The cottage is in a good location for visiting beaches etc. Would highly recommend.”

“Amazing cottage in an amazing location. If you want real peace and quite, stay here and switch off your devices. If you have a dog, there is a 7 acre field just outside your garden gate. The cottage has everything you need and some other thoughtful touches too. Lots to do and see in the local area from countryside to beaches and towns.Would definetly recommend and look forward to returning next year”

“Absolutely loved this cottage. It was cosy and snug and an excellent place to relax and recharge the batteries.For dog owners It has the added advantage of the 7 acre meadow to take your dog first thing in a morning and last thing at night.Will definitely be going back.”

“Absolutely perfect! Beautiful cottage, amazing beaches, very friendly community and attentive hosts. We loved the bath, the fires, the fields behind for our little Jack Russell Jimmy and the wildlife . We will be back!!”

“Enjoyed our week at this cottage immensely. The two dogs made full use of the meadow behind and we made great use of blackberries and mushrooms picked also from the field! Also took the dogs to Poppet Sands which was wonderful for us all. Its a pity the cafe doesn't open later during the summer. There were loads of people still there at 7pm but it closes at 5. The food we had from there was lovely! Definitely one to revisit,”
