Lawned garden with patio and seating area. Bike store. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking. Please note: There are 6 steps in the garden.. Carefully positioned near the glistening Teifi River, in the sleepy village of Llechryd, this detached, traditional Welsh cottage has been lovingly restored with your comfort in mind, making it the perfect place for a small family or couples looking to explore the hidden delights and majestic sites of West Wales. Conveniently located just a short drive away from the bustling market town of Cardigan with its imposing castle, the cottage dates back to the mid-18th century and has sympathetically restored most of its original features.
From stone walls to exposed beams, The Old Church House is full of character and even has the added benefit of an open fire, perfect for those cosy winter nights. Together with the lawned garden and patio, this wonderful abode makes the perfect base for a holiday all year round. Please note that there is a wild beehive in in eves of the cottage. The bees are not aggressive and fly away from the building. Sometimes, one or two find their way into the bathroom or kitchen, especially if windows are open in sunny weather. The owner has lived happily with the bees for 12 years and they pollinate the flowers in the surrounding area.
Next to the cottage are the ruins of a church which was originally built in 1663. It was abandoned in 1879 and declared a sacred ruin in 1997. Grade ll listed Llechryd Bridge, 150 yards away, was built in the 17th century and is visible from the upstairs windows of the cottage.
Spectacular countryside and scenic walks unfold from the doorstep where guests even enjoy the free riverside fishing on offer adjacent to the cottage. For the more adventurous, why not visit the nearby Welsh Wildlife Centre, home to one of the best wetland reserves in Wales, where a huge diversity of wildlife and nature is waiting to be discovered? The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park is within easy reach and is home to 187 miles of coastline where outstanding walks, quaint fishing villages and sandy beaches can be found. The dramatic Ceredigion coastline is just as rewarding, and home to the picturesque resorts of New Quay and Aberaeron, famed for their tranquil fishing harbours where resident bottlenose dolphins can be spotted on a clear day. Beach 6½ miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 500 yards.
Please note: There are open, steep, spiral or narrow stairs at the property.
