This rural retreat enjoys a peaceful setting 2.5 miles from the village of Rhydyfelin near Aberystwyth. The property, which welcomes six guests, makes the perfect base for families and groups of friends looking to explore the rugged Cardigan Bay coastline. A short, 4-mile journey brings you to the university town of Aberystwyth, where a plethora of independent shops and eateries line its historic streets. After a spot of retail therapy, take a sunset stroll along the Victorian promenade or climb to the top of Constitution Hill to admire the panoramic views across the bay. For a day at the seaside, the beautiful Borth Beach is 10 miles away, and you'll also be just 16 miles from the colourful harbour town of Aberaeron. Inland, keen walkers can explore the magnificent Cambrian Mountains or the Haford Estate (both within 20 miles) and the Coastal Path.

The attractive converted stone barn beautifully blends original aspects with striking, contemporary design features. From the entrance hallway, where you'll find space to store coats and boots, head through to the heart of the home – a spacious lounge/kitchen/diner with wooden floors, leafy vistas, and a magnificent wood burner in a stone fireplace taking centre stage. At one end of the room is a sleek and vibrant kitchen area with glossy units and all the equipment needed for a self-catering holiday. There's also a large dining table for hosting dinner parties and family celebrations. On the other side of the wood burner, you'll find a welcoming lounge area with a collection of comfortable seating arranged around a Smart TV. Completing the ground floor is a handy shower room. Upstairs, via a wooden staircase, you'll find three stylish king-size bedrooms, all with calming decor and zip-and-link beds offering flexible sleeping arrangements. The family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Outside, the patio garden is a lovely spot for an al fresco supper on a summer's evening, or a morning coffee as you listen to the birds in the surrounding trees. Ample private parking is available.
