Well House

About this listing

Painstakingly restored with great care, the cottage blends old-world character with modern comfort: think original slate floors (dug from the garden and now warmed by underfloor heating), thick stone walls, a wood-burning stove, and an atmosphere that wraps around you like a favourite blanket.

Surrounded by two-thirds of an acre of lush garden bordered by a gentle stream, the setting is peaceful, private, and utterly serene – yet just minutes from the bustling market town of Cardigan and its vibrant food scene, recently celebrated in the national press. Here, you’re at the heart of a region that’s quietly become a haven for food lovers and creatives. From sundowners beside the river at Pizzatipi, to slow dinners at Yr Hen Printworks, and artisan breakfasts at Crwst, every bite tells a story. You can forage for picnic treasures at local markets, take them to Mwnt for a sunset feast, and still be back at the cottage in time to stoke the fire and pour a glass of wine.

Inside, the cottage is simple and soulful – two cosy bedrooms overlooking the garden, a welcoming kitchen with a wood-burning Rayburn, and a snug lounge where you can read, nap, or stream your favourite series thanks to superfast WiFi. The bathroom features a classic roll-top bath, ideal after a bracing dip in the sea or a ramble through Cilgerran Gorge. Everywhere you look, there’s attention to detail, warmth, and a sense of place.

This is more than just a place to stay – it’s somewhere to slow down, reconnect, and experience West Wales as the locals do: through food, folklore, nature, and community. Whether you're curled up inside, sipping something local at a coastal bar, or dancing to live music at The Cellar, this cottage is your perfect base for an unforgettable stay.
