With its superb beaches, pretty resorts, dramatic cliffs and winding coastal paths, this bastion of Welsh language and culture is one of the most popular stretches of coastline for holiday cottages Wales can offer. Its rich variety of sea-life gained it Britain's first offshore Marine Heritage Coast status; here colonies of bottlenose dolphin dolphins rub shoulders with Atlantic grey seals and harbour porpoises and many species of sea-bird nest on the cliff-tops. Within easy reach of the coast, the landscape of the Cambrian Mountains offers forest trails and routes for walkers and cyclists alike.
If you are staying at any of our Cardigan Bay cottages a visit to the old fishing village of Borth is recommended. It possesses one of Ceredigion's (Welsh for Cardigan) longest beaches with golden sands stretching over two miles, a particular favourite with sailboard enthusiasts and young families. Many regard Aberystwyth as the cultural capital of Wales with its National Library, first College of the University of Wales and the largest arts centre in the country. In Victorian times, the town gained fame as the 'Biarritz' of Wales as its popularity as a resort spread. Aberaeron is one of Wales' very first planned towns dating from the 19th century with its orderly Georgian buildings. This yachting port is a popular launch point for viewing the wildlife of the Maritime Heritage Coast. The sailing centre of New Quay remains a favourite Welsh holiday destination; nearby at attractive Tresaith, visitors marvel at the river Saith cascading over the cliffs onto the sandy beach below. Aberporth is among the most charming of Ceredigion's smaller coastal holiday resorts.
Around Cardigan cottages offer ideal holiday accommodation. This town, the most southerly in Ceredigion, guards the entrance to the county from Pembrokeshire standing on the northern bank of the Teifi estuary amidst some lovely countryside. A popular destination for those seeking to stay in holiday cottages Cardigan offers visitors the chance to enjoy contrasting coastal and mountain scenery. Inland, the heather uplands and forests of the Cambrian Mountains are home to red kites and buzzards. In the foothills lies the unusual Devil's Bridge, famed for the way in which its three spans sit atop one another. Visitors can reach this spot from Aberystwyth via a narrow-gauge steam railway climbing through the verdant Vale of Rheidol.
