Chestnut Cottage

About this property

Llanilar 3.4 miles. Perched within a country estate in Crosswood near Llanilar is this fantastic Grade II listed cottage, Chestnut Cottage. Formerly a dairy, the owner has lovingly restored the building to offer spacious, well-equipped accommodation furnished with style and charm, making it a lovely base for a group or family of six seeking their next retreat to Wales. Park-up on the driveway with space for three cars, before unloading your bags and stepping into your new home from home. Look forward to whipping up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, featuring a dishwasher and washing machine, ready to enjoy at the breakfast area or the dining table for six.

If the weather is nice, why not fire up the barbecue and indulge in a spot of alfresco dining out in the shared garden? After dinner, retire to the sitting room where you can relax in front of the TV with Freeview, challenge your loved ones to a game or listen to your favourite songs courtesy of the CD player, all within the warmth of the electric fire. After a day of exploring, soothe your muscles with a relaxing soak in the bath or wash away the day with a hot shower as you prepare for bed. When sleep calls, choose from three well-appointed bedrooms, two doubles, one of which can be found on the ground floor and a twin.

Outdoor enthusiasts will not be disappointed with an excellent selection of walking and cycling trails available right on your doorstep, including the 20-mile Ystwyth Trail and the wildlife rich Birch Grove Walk. For your local amenities, take the short drive over to Llanilar, where you will find a well-stocked village shop and the welcoming Falcon Inn & Kitchen, perfect for those evening’s when you don’t feel like cooking! Venture over to Aberystwyth, where you will be spoilt for choice for things to do! Peruse a wealth of independent shops, dine at the wonderful selection of pubs, restaurants, and tea rooms, tour the Amgueddfa Ceredigion Museum and the Aberystwyth Arts Centre, or hop aboard a vintage steam train at the Vale of Rheidol Railway to visit the popular Devil’s Bridge and enjoy the picturesque falls.

Don’t forget to pack your bathing suits, swim trunks, buckets, and spades ready to enjoy the glorious sands of the West Wales coastline, where you can bathe, try your hand at watersports or tuck-in to fresh fish and chips with the sand between your toes. Continue onto Borth, where you can test out your swing at the Borth & Ynyslas Golf Club, explore Borth Station Museum or visit the animals within The Animalarium. Adventure awaits with a stay at Chestnut Cottage.

A charming little hamlet on the Ystwyth River's southern bank with a traditional bar and a well-stocked shop selling many locally produced goods, as well as a nearby nine-hole golf course. Llanilar is surrounded by stunning scenery, making it easy to go for walks or rides right from the centre of town. Six miles away, in the lively seaside town of Aberystwyth, you'll find an excellent museum, shops, pubs and tea houses along the promenade and an 18-hole golf course. Take a trip down memory lane on the narrow-gauge Vale of Rheidol Railway and take in the stunning countryside in peace. Explore Devil's Bridge, a beautiful waterfall, or the Cambrian Mountains, which offer stunning vistas of the area. This is the ideal spot for every form of vacation, thanks to the beautiful Cardigan coastline.
