Description

Experience 5-star comfort at this wonderful retreat in West Wales countryside.

Reviews

The cottage is not only beautiful and comfortable but has everything you will need for a relaxing break. The gardens are so pretty and perfectly maintained. The location is ideal for those who like to go for walks or as a base to go further afield and the owners are really friendly. Simply wonderful!

Miss Jill H,

Our second stay at Wisteria Cottage and love it just as much as the first time. Nothing has been overlooked in this place from kitchen accessories right the way through to Netflix and iPads for the kids. Will definitely go back again.

Mr Craig H,

What an amazing cottage. By far one of the best places we have ever stayed. We came to relax and boy did we do that. The boys loved the hot tub. The cottage itself is spotless and has everything you need. Would love to come back again.
