Aberdauddwr Cottage in Lampeter is highly praised for its stunning views, peaceful environment, and attentive host, Malcolm. Guests consistently mention the property's cleanliness, comfort, and the added luxury of a hot tub. The location is ideal for exploring the Welsh coast and enjoying nature. While some minor issues are noted, the overall experience is one of relaxation and enjoyment, with many guests planning to return.
The majority of guests found the cottage to be very clean and well-kept, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, one review mentioned that the cleaning was not thorough with soap left from previous guests, slightly impacting the score.
The location is frequently described as beautiful and secluded, perfect for a peaceful retreat while still being close enough to Lampeter for convenience. The proximity to beaches and nature activities is highly appreciated.
Guests report the cottage as comfortable, with plenty of space and cosy bedrooms. The presence of a hot tub adds to the comfort level. One review mentioned deceptive photos regarding size, but this seems an isolated view.
Facilities are generally regarded as excellent, with a well-equipped kitchen and outdoor amenities like a BBQ and hot tub. Some guests noted the kitchen as dated and one mentioned a need for better maintenance, slightly lowering the score.
The host's thoughtfulness is frequently highlighted, with mentions of welcoming gestures such as milk and cakes on arrival. While these gifts are warmly received, they are a personal touch from the host and may vary with each stay.

The cottage was clean and well equipped and the views over the valley were amazing. We spent time in the hot tub with the sun setting over the valley and red kites circling over head. If you are searching for peace and quiet in beautiful surroundings this is a really good choice. The owners were helpful, very friendly but unobtrusive.

Several things to see and do within an hour drive. The owner Malcolm was great, really accommodating and sent us a list of recommendations for days out on the first day. Would definitely look to go back. Thank you

It has lots of greenery and the views are great. Malcom Davies, was more than accommodating. It was easy right from booking until check out. I would definitely reccomend it. Be prepared for a great stay.
