Holiday home Tangaer Cottage is a superb, semi-detached cottage settled on the owners' working sheep farm, three miles from Lampeter. With three bedrooms, one four poster double, plus one twin and one single with additional pull-out single, this cottage can sleep four people. There is also a first floor bathroom with Jacuzzi bath, plus a ground floor cloakroom and an open plan living area with kitchen, dining area and sitting area with woodburner, along with a utility room. Outside is off road parking for three cars plus an enclosed lawned garden with swings, slide, a sandpit, and basketball hoop. There is also a decked patio area with furniture and a gas barbecue to the front of the property. Nearby is the beautiful Ceredigion coastline, along with plenty of history to uncover in the nearby museums, mills and the ruins of a Roman fort in the owners' adjacent field, which guests are welcome to wander through. Tangaer Cottage is a lovely base, and with an array of facilities and nearby attractions to please all ages, it's the perfect choice for your next Welsh holiday.
Area Lampeter is the smallest and oldest university town in Wales, and boasts a fine selection of small, locally-owned shops. It also boasts a museum, a patchwork quilt museum and has a wealth of unique tea rooms, pubs and restaurants, regular markets and a fine food festival.
Region Famous for its choirs, stunning mountain ranges and beautiful valleys, this wonderful country has something for everyone. From Snowdonia in North Wales to the Brecon Beacons and the Pembrokeshire Coast in the South.
A quiet place to escape and just enjoy the silence. This is a great base for walks and lovers of dark skies. Just a short trip in the car to the coast and rare raised bog. Bob the dog kept us company when we walked from the cottage to the nearby hill fort. We also had clear nights to gaze in wonder at the millions of stars and the milky way. Log fires on chillier nights were also welcome. Would love to stay again.

fabulous stay in a gorgeous cottage set in idyllic countryside. Tangaer cottage offers stunning accommodation in a quiet and peaceful location with easy access to local amenities. They are extremely Covid aware, and put measures in place to ensure everyones safety. They are dog and child friendly and the owners Iona and Gerrant are amazing and will do everything they can to help make your stay even more amazing. There are tonnes of places to go and walk with your 4 legged friends and little ones within easy reach of the cottage, as well as fantastic beaches and attractions within a short drive. Highly recommend Tangaer, it is simply a relaxing and wonderful place to stay.

A lovely cottage throughout.. Owners lovely and very helpful, got to meet Bob the very friendly dog.
The week away was just what the family needed.
Had everything within the cottage you could need.
All enjoyed the "hot tub bath" after a day at the local beach.

1. The house is high quality, well built and well finished.. 2. The welcome pack was most welcome, but even better was to find the kitchen equipped with all the little things that are important,
but you don't want to shop for : salt, pepper, vinegar, oil, cling film, foil, washing up liquid, dishwasher tabs etc
2a Log fire,logs, warm house, jacuzzi and home-made Welsh cakes all added to our enjoyment
3. Mr & Mrs Williams (and Bob !) were most friendly & welcoming, but not "in yer face" - they allowed us to enjoy their property without us feeling watched over.
4. Tangaer is ideally situated to easily visit many places.
We enjoyed Aberaeron and Newquay on a wonderfully sunny day and were equally fortunate when we visited Llyn Brianne reservoir.
5. Nearby Tregaron has a pub, The Talbot, which has quality food at very reasonable prices - fantastic !
6. Every journey in and out of the cottage was accompanied by several red kites - such a treat.

The cottage and it's location is just perfect.. We have never stayed in such a well equipped and spacious holiday home, with such comfortable surroundings. The outdoor space is amazing for kids and we loved sitting out in the evening on the patio. Nothing was too much to ask and it was just wonderful.

We returned to this stunning holiday cottage, We have been quite a few times. The accommodation is beautiful which has everything you can possibly think of, all you need to do on arrival is unpack and enjoy the the beauty inside and outside. We have stayed all different times of the year, so you have the decking area to soak up the sun or the warm cosy wood burner in the winter. There is nothing to fault. We have 2 dogs and there are so many walks on the doorstep and located centrally for trips to the coast etc. The play area for children is fully enclosed and in view from the cottage so the kids can play safely whilst you just sit back and relax and take in the beautiful surroundings. The owners are lovely, always so helpful and full of information and ideas of places to visit. It truly is worth a visit and enjoy the tranquil setting. We will be back to see you very soon and Bob if coarse. (Farm dog)

We stayed here with our 4 children 11, 6 and 2. We all had an amzing time. The cottage is beautiful, clean, spacious and very well equipped for families. It had vast amounts of books, board games, dvds and a wii console. The children loved playing ball with the 2 dogs spot and bob! The garden was also great for the children. Its based within an hours drive of lots of attractions and beautiful beaches. The owners were really friendly and welcoming, we even had milk, bread and home made welsh cakes on arrival! We just got home today and we all miss it already. Would highly recommend to other families and couples wanting to explore Wales. I cant think of anything that would improve this cottage-it really is a true home from home!!

We were thrilled by the extreme generosity of the owners: welcome pack, wine, flowers, cakes, milk, coffee and even bathrobe and slippers! ... everything you could ask for.
The cottage was very clean and organized. The location is spot on. Just over 30 minutes away from beautiful beaches: Dolau, Cymtydu. All in all, brilliant experience.

We have stayed at Tangear Cottage twice a year for several years now. The countryside around is beautiful and peaceful giving opportunity for walking and enjoying the lovely views. The town of Lampeter is a short drive away with little independent shops as well as a couple of supermarkets. The Pembrokeshire coastline is lovely and makes for a great day out driving through some incredible countryside. Also some lovely places to visit such as the National Trust at Colby Woodland garden where you can walk through the woods down to the beach at Amroth, also the NT at Llanerchaeron. Geraint and Iona are warm and welcoming hosts and are very helpful. The cottage itself is lovely and equipped with everything you need to make for a relaxing home from home experience.We must not forget to mention 2 delightful dogs Bob and Spot who are welcoming and love to be made a fuss of but are also very obedient. We are returning again in the autumn and looking forward to it.

I was so impressed with this cottage. There has been so much thought put into it. It caters for everyone of all ages. Even our dogs that had an enclosed area that we could safely put them in whilst we enjoyed the sunshine on the decking area just outside the cottage. Its great for children as there is a safe place for them and plenty to do and play with. The added bonus was having free WIFI. The cottage has everything you need and alot of thought gone into it by the friendly owners who are very welcoming and very helpful. Its a place we will be returning to as it was like home from home with stunning countryside views and lots of lovely places to vist. Truely stunning in every way.

Located just a few miles outside Lampeter the cottage is fabulous and has everything you need for a quiet and relaxing holiday. Beautiful walks can begin and end on the doorstep with regular opportunities to see the soaring Red Kites resident in the area! Miles of quiet roads surround the cottage which are an absolute joy for the road cyclist... and there is secure storage for the bike also! Lampeter offers many wonderful and unique coffee shops and restaurants... and Aberaeron with its quaint harbour and seaside is not too far away. Iona and Geraint (and of course Bob and Spot - the dogs) always give us a very warm welcome. We have returned as a family and are looking forward to our next visit!

The scenery was amazing, there was a small play area for little people and the broadband was pretty reliable given where the cottage was located. And the icing on the cake was Bob and Spot - two very friendly Collies! Would definitely recommend.

The owners were wonderful hosts; extremely welcoming and friendly.. The cottage was spotlessly clean and extremely well equipped. Beautiful scenery from the bedroom balcony. We had some wonderful trips out in the countryside and shore. Newquay, Aberaeron, Aberystwyth were worth a visit and we enjoyed walking in the hills at Tregaron.

We have just returned from our 2nd visit to this fabulous cottage and 3rd year running to this area of Wales. The cottage is still as good as it was in last years review being one of the best we have stayed in and great value. Sparky and the kids got to play with there old friends Bob and Spot. This year the weather was perfect for us apart from packing up today when it was pouring down,so managed to get out and about in Aberystwyth Aberaeron and New Quay beaches a visit to the National Show Caves and a trip to the Devils Bridge Falls catching the steam train to Aberystwyth also taking in the Waterfalls at Devils Bridge ( need to be fit for these so left Mom and Dad in the cafe at the top) these were all within an hr or so of the cottage. Thanks for letting us stay sure we will return soon.

Just had a week at this cottage with my partner, his Mum, a 13 year old boy and our little dog. We all loved it. The basketball hoop was a great touch. The cottage is clean, fresh and has everything you could possibly need. The log fire was lovely. The scenery is amazing and it is so peaceful. The owners were very helpful and friendly even lending us their binoculars for our dolphin spotting trip in New Quay. The welcome pack was a lovely gesture and very much appreciated. The resident dogs Spot and Bob are very friendly, so much so, our little dog who is often intimidated by bigger dogs actually got on really well with them. I can't fault this place.We visited Aberystwyth, Aberaron and New Quay. New Quay was our favourite. The photos we had seen of the cottage prior to our visit did not do it justice. It is gorgeous. You would be a fool not to stay here.

Just returned from a wonderful week in this fantastic cottage. Total luxury with a four poster bed and huge jacuzzi bath. Owners very welcoming and helpful without being intrusive. Lovely welcome pack provided as well. Has decked area to front of property and also area further over with play equipment for children. Iona very helpful with areas to walk our dog. The property does not have an enclosed yard or garden. Lovely beaches a short drive away but I understand these do not allow dogs in high season. Bob and Spot the farm dogs roam freely to the front of the cottage during the day and were very friendly. Possibly this would not suit non dog loving visitors.
Highly recommended and great value. Hope to return next year!

We have rented many cottages in Wales over the years and this must be one of the best. Very cosy sleeping 4 adults 2 kids and our dog. Spotlessly clean and welcoming on arrival lovely bedrooms and bathroom. Plenty of space and seating in the living room with a small unexpected welcome pack. Arranged a Tesco shop to be delivered on arrival which worked a treat. Close too many beaches which we have visited on the sunny days and relaxed on the not so sunny ones. Friendly owners and even more friendly dogs called Spot and Bob who Sparky and the kids loved playing with.

Excellant accommodation with high standards throughout. Have had many fantastic stays once or twice a year and thorougly enjoy ourselves every time. We always have a very warm welcome from Geraint and Iona who are always very helpful and do their utmost to make our stay so special. The surroundings are picturesque and very peaceful, giving a very relaxing environment. There are plenty of walks and the cottage is very central for visiting other parts of Wales especially the beautiful Cardigan Coast. Lampeter is just a short drive away with shops and restaurants. We cannot fault anything and will certainly return for many more enjoyable holidays.
