Beautifully renovated cottage with a lovely enclosed garden. Big bonus having the walks through he woods and meadows right outside the back door.
A charming cottage nestled in the countryside surrounded by a stream, this cottage was without a doubt the best one we have stayed at in 30 years. A mix of old and new, perfectly combined to offer cosy nights and summer days. The garden was outstanding, the kitchen had a stock of cookware and the lounge area was fully kitted out with technology to offer a huge amount of entertainment. The location of the cottage is amazing, with a huge country estate right on the doorstep and walk and trails leading in every direction. Would stay again, in fact, WILL stay again.
Min yr Afon was a perfect cottage in a perfect location.
Min yr Avon is a delightfully secluded and very well equipped cottage. Perfect for a peaceful and relaxed holiday, yet not far way from a variety of attractions. There are walks a plenty from the door, offering a good variety and catering for varied weather conditions. One of our favourites is across fields, past the church, over the bridge and through the N Trust woods.This was our third visit and we plan a fourth.
If you've ever visited a holiday cottage before, you most likely have seen a guestbook in the property for guests to leave a review for others when they arrive. Each of the following comments was lovingly left by people just like you in the guestbook left at Min yr Afon.

Llanerchaeron (NT)
Over a little footbridge and across the meadows takes you to the 18th century Welsh gentry estate.
The mansion (designed by John Nash) gardens and cafe are set amidst rolling parkland. There is a service courtyard with dairy, laundry, brewery and salting house and walled kitchen gardens (with produce for sale in season). It is also a working organic farm with Welsh Black cattle, Llanwenog sheep and rare Welsh pigs.
Aberaeron
Once a thriving and prosperous fishing port with a shipbuilding industry - some 60 sailing vessels were built here including 35 schooners 'the greyhound of the ocean' - a walk on the historic Town Trail gives a fascinating glimpse into this past, including the origins of the famous Aberaeron Shovel.
There is a fantastic regular calendar of events during the year to enjoy including Cardigan Bay Sea Food Festival, Yachting Regatta, a Beer & Cider Festival, Tug of War, Annual Carnival and Mackerel Festival.
Aberaeron Craft Centre
Ceredigion Coast Path
The Ceredigion Coast Path is virtually on your doorstep - from Cardigan in the South to Yns-las in the North the path runs along the coast past Aberaeron and takes in part of the Marine Heritage Coast - secluded sandy coves, endless golden beaches, undulating clifftop walking where the only sound is the cry of the seabirds and there are charming fishing villages - spot bottlenose dolphins in the bay along the way!
Cei Bach
This pretty sheltered sandy beach is good for bathing and has beautiful scenic views - the Coastal Path from Aberaeron to Cei Bach passes over a waterfall as it wends its way along the cliff tops.
New Quay
This is a bustling seaside town with picturesque houses, pubs and restaurants clinging to the sides of the hills as they rise above the blue waters of Cardigan Bay above the sandy beaches - great for relaxing, sailing, fishing and water sports.
From New Quay's pier, you can see the famous Cardigan Bay dolphins on most days in the summer or take a fishing trip or coastal cruise to truly experience fantastic coastal scenery from a different aspect and perhaps have close encounters with the dolphins, seals, porpoises and sometimes whales!
Cwmtydu Beach
This is a tranquil, secluded cove at the end of the Dewi valley. Once the haunt of smugglers, it is now a popular destination for walkers, nature lovers and holidaymakers with caves to explore at low tide and spectacular cliff top views from the Ceredigion Coast Path as it passes through.
Llangrannog
This pretty little-sheltered cove is popular with families and has great rock pools with the famous Carreg Bica rock (Devils Tooth) divides its 2 sandy beaches at low tide.
Enjoy a drink or food at the Ship Inn overlooking the beach - fabulous sunsets too!
Cardigan
This is the charming county town with its high street lined with Georgian shop fronts - call into The Custom House Gallery, visit the indoor market, sample some of the eating places and perhaps see a film or show at Theatr Mwldan which has a constantly changing programme of events.
Cardigan Castle
Recently refurbished, the castle is more of a Georgian mansion within 11th century fortified walls overlooking the Teifi river. Dine in the 1176 restaurant and enjoy special events.
Welsh Wildlife Centre & Teifi Marsh
Visit this award-winning venue with indoor and outdoor attractions and Glasshouse Cafe. Children will love the play area, wildlife films and interpretation centre. Outside are 4 nature trails with bird hides, willow sculptures, picnic areas and canoes for hire.
Aberystwyth
Less than 30 minutes drive away is the vibrant coastal and university town of Aberystwyth with its elegant promenade, interesting independent shops, cafes, bars, restaurants, arts centre, cliff railway and National Library of Wales.
A Grade ll enchanting cottage tucked away on the edge of the stunning Llanerchaeron parkland, perfect for holidays throughout the year.
