We stayed as a large family group. This cottage has everything you need and lots of more. There is a stair gate for children upstairs which was reassuring for my Daughter, who has 2 children. We requested a travel cot and a high hair which were both set up on arrival. There are multiple rooms to enjoy, to use in different ways. Quiet reading, TV and games night. There is a downstairs shower room. Had a lot of fun in the games room Accessibility: All the bedrooms are upstairs, one flight (wide and solid banisters). Please note the bedroom with 4 single beds, is at the opposite end to the childrenâs room, with the den. The den was lovely and our youngest grandchild, had a lot of fun playing there. The garden is very pretty and relaxing to sit and enjoy the birds and peace. Safety: The garden has a lawned area to the side which is slightly higher. Location: Lovely, shops, pubs (Castle Inn delicious food and great service) and cafes all walking distance. Accessibility: This is an old village, pavements are narrow in places, but I managed my wheelchair/walker. Beach (Parrog) at the bottom of the road, which is also accessible if you are an ambulatory wheel chair user. There are no phone services in the area unless you are on EE, however cottage WiFi is very good. (We were glad to get away from phones/screens) We had a lovely stay and definitely recommend this accommodation. We had 2 small issues, which didnât impact on our stay, but were both mentioned to the owner. The owner communicated quickly and offered to resolve immediately. Ideas: I didnât see a BBQ, could be considered. Thank you, Ty Morlais for wonderful holiday!

A bit warm upstairs at night but think it was the heating and the lovely airy windows.
