Lovely cottage and beautiful surroundings - enjoyed all the walks and lovely beaches. Seen plenty of dolphins. Thanks for such a great holiday.
Very well kept cottage. Enjoyed the smaller beaches. We saw lots of dolphins & a seal and choughs on the cliffs. In spite of the weather we really enjoyed this.

Lovely Cottage. Hot tub was very very nice, especially in the dark. Easy access to other places. Beds were very comfy. Hope to return in the future.

It was so lovely to welcome you back again. I am really glad you enjoyed your visit. Hopefully see you soon.
What a beautiful cottage. Ty Ceiniog is in a tranquil location, yet minutes away from lovely beaches, such as Llangrannog Tresaith, Aberporth and friendly towns like New Quay and Aberaeron. Thank you for going above and beyond with the supplies for the cottage - particularly dog beds, blankets and treats. Brioche has thoroughly enjoyed herself. We are most definitely looking in to booking for next year.

Stayed Rainbow Cottage.
Thank you for your hospitality and arranging everything in the cottage that we needed for our stay. All the little details were thought of and it was very clean. We really enjoyed our stay here due to these things and had a relaxing break. God bless you.

It was so lovely to see you all again. I am so glad the cottage didn't disappoint on your second visit, and I really look forward to seeing you next year.
What a comfortable and clean cottage! Despite a rather mixed week weatherwise, we have had a lovely week. The cottage is so well situated and we visited some favourite places nearby such as Aberporth to Tresaith coastal path, Aberaeron, Newport Sands and Strumble Head. Thank you so much for the welcome pack and the extras for Bracken our dog. We will definitely look to return! Would recommend the Moody Cow in Aberaeron and Driftwood Cafe in Aberporth for dog friendly places to eat.

We have all enjoyed our stay at Rainbow Cottage. The cottage was very clean and accommodated all our needs. Thank you for the welcome pack!
The garden was a peaceful, tranquil haven, lovely and relaxing. The hot tub was lovely, best we have been in - nice to chill and enjoy the surroundings. We have had quality family time all together - a perfect few days away. Thank you!

It is so good to hear that you had a good holiday and enjoyed watching the wildlife in the garden and from the conservatory. Thank you for your lovely comments and I really hope I get to welcome you back in the future. Good luck with your produce this year!
This is the 3rd or 4th visit to your fabulous cottages. This time we brought all the family. You gave us a really warm welcome once again. The cottages (we had both) were fabulous, so clean, and all the touches were really well thought through. We used the BBQ and it worked fabulously well. All told we had an amazing weekend. Thank you for ordering the sunshine! Perfect 10/10. See you for our next visit.

This was our third stay here and we had another great week! The cottage was very comfortable and the outside eating area was lovely in the sun. We especially enjoyed popping down to New Quay at the end of each day as it is only a few minutes away. We look forward to staying here again.

Fantastic holiday yet again! Spotlessly clean, comfy, cosy with all the equipment you could ask for to make a perfect staycation - plus the sunshine this year! Peaceful and tranquil surroundings and a warm welcome from Marie and Bob. An excellent base to explore the coast and countryside in West Wales - a little slice of heaven. We'll be back hopefully next year!

Thank you so much for a lovely time. The cottage is beautiful and the hot tub was a godsend! Bob and Marie you should be proud. You were lovely hosts to us and I will definitely recommend this lovely cottage to all my family and friends.

We had a lovely time in Rainbow Cottage - thank you. We have been to the area many times so know it quite well. We visited Aberaeron, Tresaith and Aberporth. So much more we wanted to see but we ran out of time! Next time we’ll definitely stay longer!
The cottage has so many positives, it was perfect for our girls aged 5 and 1. The wooden cot was of excellent quality and so much better than the usual travel cots provided by some properties. Equally the highchair was of a high quality, and was spotlessly clean. The games and books provided were thoughtful and the girls enjoyed playing with/reading those. There was enough floor space for them to play too.
The beds were comfortable, the bedrooms themselves were clean, tidy, spacious and warm. Couldn’t ask for more!
The bathroom was again spotless, nice hot shower. Lovely white towels and plenty of them.
The kitchen was well equipped, we appreciated the children’s cutlery and plastic plates. It had plenty of cupboard space and we liked that the essentials were provided such as tea towels, hand wash, washing up liquid and kitchen roll. It was also handy to have the washing machine to wash the children’s clothes in as they spilt many an ice cream down themselves! Thank you for the Welsh cakes and eggs, it was a lovely extra.
Possibly our favourite feature - the hot tub! What a treat that was, the nicest hot tub I’ve been in. The garden area was lovely, like a secret garden through the trees.
All in all we all loved it, our eldest didn’t want to come home and neither did we! We made great memories that we’ll treasure. We will be back for sure.

I am so glad that you enjoyed your stay at Rainbow Cottage, and we look forward to welcoming you back next month. Many thanks for leaving this lovely review.
Ty Ceiniog is a lovely cosy, clean and peaceful cottage with all the comforts you need. Great location to explore the beautiful surrounding coastlines. We visited Fishguard watched the sun set at Mwnt cove (stunning), walked from Penbryn to Tresaith about 1.5 mile along coast path (highly recommended). Stopped for lovely meail in the Ship Inn overlooking the bay. Also visited Llangranog, New Quay and Aberystwyth. Will definitely be in touch to come again. Thank you so much x
