Visit Y Felin, one of only two working watermills in Wales, and retains the machinery installed in 1820.

An award-winning local produce market is held here every Tuesday and is well worth a visit.

A 10-minute drive away is the Welsh Wildlife Centre, which is one of the best wetlands reserves in Wales, where a huge diversity of wildlife is waiting to be discovered. You may prefer to explore the Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre where you can learn how to spot dolphins, porpoises, and Atlantic grey seals.
Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire, and Carmarthenshire can be explored from this location, and the delights of Oakwood, Folly Farm, and The Blue Lagoon Water Park make for fantastic days out from Ferry View. Keen golfers can enjoy the spectacular views over the dramatic coastline from both Cardigan and Newport Golf Clubs.

You know its good when you can picture yourself living there. Even though the weather was typical of west wales changeable, it was a wonderful retreat for a few quiet days away from the bustle of the city. Highly recommended we actually live in NZ and I have to say this is just aabout the most delightful places I have ever stayed.

Overall not to bad ,spent a lovely week in Dogmaels unfortunately the shower in the property was either cold or scorching hot you had to treat it with kid gloves.The parking in the front of the house leaves a lot to be desired.House stocked well with everything you need.

Great cottage and location area has got a lot to offer. Cottage is very well equippedWould have got a 5 review if parking hadn't been an issue a couple of times.The neighbour has nurses several times a day who used the space they did move when I asked. The parking if the space is full is difficult as the dock near by is always fullI think the garden could be improved also.Having said that the cottage is excellent value
