Cottage holiday rentals in Cwmystwyth

We all had a truly wonderful stay at The Dairy in South Wales. The cottage is charming, beautifully kept, and perfectly nestled among rolling hills and countryside walks — an ideal spot to switch off and unwind from the demands of everyday life. The surroundings are peaceful and scenic, with plenty of walking trails right on the doorstep perfect for our 2 dogs what where with us!Whether you're after a gentle stroll or something more adventurous, the area is a dream for nature lovers. Our hosts were absolutely fantastic — warm, welcoming, and always on hand if needed, without being intrusive. You can tell they really care about making guests feel at home. Even giving us milk that we forgot to bring with us-! Lifesavers! If you're looking for a peaceful escape with stunning views, fresh air, and a real sense of calm, I can't recommend The Dairy enough. I left feeling rested, recharged, and already planning a return visit! Thank you so much guys, see you soon!

Lovely cottage 2nd visit, lovely location and the hot tub was great. 😊😊

We stayed with our baby and 3 dogs. Lovely cosy cottage with everything we needed, including high chair and books/toys. Perfect location and beautiful surroundings. Paul was great to chat to and gave good local reccomendations for dog walks, beaches and places to eat. Hot tub was ideal as well!! Would recommend

Just spent a very relaxing 4 days at Coal's view. The pictures on the site are lovely but in reality they don't do the place justice. It is such a beautiful home, everything that you need for a relaxing break. The space is so well thought out, lovely comfy bed and huge bathroom with the free standing bath and separate shower. The hot tub is one of the best we've had at an Airbnb and we made use of it every night, even when there was a bit of rain about. Being able to sit and read in the garden area in the late warm spring afternoon was a joy, my wife totally chilled on the hammock. Tom and Louise live next door to the property and we're really responsive with check in details and also when we contacted them during our stay. Such a lovely place and hope to be able to visit it again.

The accommodation is situated in beautiful countryside with good walks in all directions. Its spacious and well equipped which led to a comfortable stay. Rhayader is nearby with shops, pubs and restaurants, ensuring we had everything we needed for a good holiday.

The cottage is really lovely, tiny but with a lot of charm. We enjoyed our stay a lot. We loved the shower especially, never saw one like it! And it was easy to walk the dog. The beach is further away than we thought but a 23 minutes walk was okay.

We had a fantastic week at Aberdar. The weather was amazing all week, so we spent our time outside enjoying the garden, orchard and stream, and sitting at the various seating areas to avoid the wind if it got too strong. We only made 3 trips away from Aberdar.. a stunning part of Wales and it was hard to put the camera down. A pleasure to drive on the pothole free roads and we hardly saw anyone apart from friendly farmers. Our anxious rescue dog was very happy enjoying the space and he was relaxed all week, as were we. Aberdar has it all.. very clean and homely, very well equipped with everything we needed, useful information file provided for guests, beautiful views and loved hearing the sheep, cows and stream. If you are tall, remember to duck when going through the doorways.. we kept forgetting! This was a very special trip for us and we will be returning!

What a gorgeous place if all you need is peace and quiet and the sound of the birds this is for you. Even better is it’s only 25 minutes from Abergavenny and it’s Waitrose 😉. Wilma was lovely and updated us with everything and replied with answers to our queries . We are only annoyed that we took so long to find this little gem!

My advice to anyone looking to book this place is to get on and do it. The pictures don’t do it justice. The property is unbelievable. If you like waking up to the sound of birds and having loads of places to walk then this place is for you. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, I met Ann and her husband Chris who were both so helpful and nice to talk to. I’m so gutted the trip ended as is my girlfriend and two dogs, who are shattered from the stunning coastal walks. I can guarantee I will return!

We stayed at Rock Cottage for my mum’s 50th birthday and we couldn’t have wished for a better weekend, the hosts really thought of everything. The most beautifully decorated cottage, and the fairy lights and music being on as we walked in was such a special touch. We didn’t want to leave! Would highly recommend - we are already wanting to go back in Autumn/Winter 🍂🎃 Excellent communication from hosts with detailed instructions on how to get there and also some great recommendations. The cottage was absolutely spotless and smelt gorgeous, really comfy beds too. Overall a perfect place to relax and switch off. Thank you Mirabelle & Brad ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

The Bakery was a fantastic place in a superb location and was spotlessly clean. All mod cons were available with a splendid enclosed garden, which our two dogs loved and where they were totally secure. Our hosts were on hand and went above and beyond for all our requests. We would highly recommend the Bakery - it is a true gem.

We had an incredible week at Eliza’s cottage with our two dogs. From the moment we arrived, we knew this was a special place. The sunrises were breathtaking, and the night skies were perfect for stargazing — a truly peaceful escape from everyday life. The beautiful cottage was cozy and well-equipped and the large garden was ideal for our dogs, who absolutely loved the space to roam freely. One of the biggest highlights was the endless walking opportunities. Whether straight from the cottage or exploring nearby villages, there was no shortage of scenic routes to enjoy. And the beaches, all within a short drive, were simply stunning — some of the best we’ve visited in the UK. Eliza was a fantastic host—friendly and responsive. We wouldn’t hesitate to return, and if you're looking for a peaceful, picturesque getaway, this is the perfect spot.

Was a lovely little place to stay for the weekend. Had everything we needed and more. The nice little touches that really made it is that there were eggs, milk and crumpets left for us. The host was really responsive and helpful when we struggled to get the travel for up. Would definitely return for another visit

Great stay at Debbie’s place. As advertised - very friendly and responsive host. Would definitely stay again.

Absolute brilliant home to explore the North Wales coast and the Llyn Peninsula. We loved Cricceith as a base and the home was perfect for our week away: beautifully thought out, spotless and just really homely.....we did not want to leave and can't wait to book another stay! Things that stood out were: the shower was powerful and warm, the beds were comfy, the facilities were excellent and the garden area was private. We couldn't fault it!

The house is well situated in the village, very close to the shop and pub. Ceri made sure we were comfortable and had all we needed. The provision of personal touches such as home made cake and jam made us feel welcome. The house was spotlessly clean and comfortable.

This was a wonderfully peaceful and cocooning place to stay. We had a fantastic few days at the aptly named Wildernest and could not fault a thing. Our kids loved the space the roam, the animals, the trampoline and discovering the toys and games in the barn. We slept very well on very comfortable mattresses and left feeling restored and refreshed. Many thanks to the hosts for having us.

This property is a hidden gem in a very tranquil area. The cottage's living room is large, its kitchen is fully equipped, its beds are clean and comfortable, and its bathrooms are lovely. For a family holiday, it had everything you could ask for. Simon and Charlotte were prompt in their communication. Although we were granted privacy, we were aware that we had immediate access to any assistance we needed. The experience was made even better by small additions such as freshly laid farm eggs, milk from a local dairy, and Welsh cakes that were left for us. Overall, the property exceeded our expectations

We had a fantastic 4 night break over the Easter holidays at Richard's cottage. The house is very clean, nicely decorated and looks even better than in the pictures. We loved the garden and used this a lot during our stay. The views are stunning and are a real selling point, especially if you're after a low-key, tranquil break in Wales. We made use of the log burner & outdoor fire, which were nice additions to our stay. We were also lucky enough to see a meteor shower on the last night! We have two dogs and as previously mentioned in another review, the garden is well secured but our dogs are reactive to livestock. We managed this by letting the dogs out early morning and late at night or with our supervision. It was no big deal to us but worth mentioning as the horses do stick their heads over the fence. Thank you for a brilliant stay. We said it was the best Airbnb we have stayed in and would love to stay again. Melissa and Luke.

If I could give this place 6 stars I would! A stunning place, with everything you’d need and more for a super homely, comfortable stay. Gareth left us some fresh milk, bread and cookies and had a fridge and kitchen full of essentials. The beds were so comfortable. What a luxurious stay! Parking was easy and communication with Gareth was great.
