A 5 day break at Dyffryn Ceri
Reviewed on 07/09/2023
A lovely experience in beautiful surroundings. Great access to the West Coast of Wales.
Nothing had been missed and every minor detail had been considered. The positioning/construction of the accommodation gave a sense of isolation in a private setting with no overlooking dwellings. However, the owner was easy to contact if there had been any issues.
I would highly recommend this property to others!
Two night stay
Reviewed on 04/09/2023
Amazing stay, nothing too much trouble, beautiful welcome pack and lovely owners, nice for a quiet getaway. Beautiful views especially as we sat in the hot tub, the kitchen has everything you could want.
We loved every minute, only slight negative is the water pressure for the shower but this did not impact on our lovely experience.
Exceeds expectations
Reviewed on 30/08/2023
Our stay way exceeded our expectations. The property was absolutely beautiful with even more beautiful views. We loved the secluded location. Jo checked us in, giving us a run-down of the property and all it had to offer. She was extremely welcoming and friendly, as were the staff at The Hungry Ram, where we went for a meal one of the nights.

The location is rural, with beautiful views all around.
A beautiful location to relax and unwind with picturesque views. Very quiet and peaceful location.

Booked this place for my partners birthday and we both loved it! Such a change to be able to stay somewhere completely away from people. We only saw sheep!
Ricky stayed in touch with us via WhatsApp which was great because we were slightly worried about finding the place. But he was so lovely and made sure we knew where everything was and how the hot tub/blinds worked. Also let us check in a little early as the place was clean and ready for us.
Had an amazing welcome box which included Welsh cheese, crackers, Welshcakes, fruit and brownies etc. So good!
The Hungry Ram restaurant is right behind this place and be aware it’s only open Thursday-Sunday if you wish to dine there. But the kitchen comes FULLY equipped for cooking your own meals if needed.
10/10 would stay again for a special occasion, so glad we chose this place as there were no faults whatsoever.
If I had to add one thing that I think is missing, it would be- a DVD player! (Just in case there’s nothing to watch on telly)
Thanks for sharing your place with us, it was perfect 🙂
An amazing two night stay in Dyffryn Ceri
Reviewed on 18/05/2023
Myself and my girlfriend came to stay in Dyffryn Ceri for 2 nights Monday – Wednesday for a birthday celebration. The location was absolutely breathtaking and Jo was very welcoming and helpful through the entire stay.
My partner had asked Jo if she was able to provide a birthday hamper of some sort for our stay which she provided, this included banners and balloons, freshly made cakes, wine and snacks. This gave a lovely add to the holiday and made it more special. Along with this Jo also provided us with fresh milk, fruit, local cheese and other small amenities which made our stay easy and felt personal.
The hot tub was prepped and up to temperature when we arrived and we were given a full tour of the unit and all the information we needed.
It’s close to a few small towns if you have a car which was lovely to visit and we have since had friends and family asking for the booking information simply just from pictures provided by us.
We will 100% recommend this to others and will return soon!
Thank you so much to Jo and family:).

We loved the attention to detail in the cabin, waking up to stunning sunrises and stargazing from the hot tub in the evening.

Dyffryn Ceri excited us when we saw the pictures but it was even better in real life! Beautifully fitted out, wonderful view and close to many local attractions. The welcome pack was the best we’ve ever received. Home made brownies, cakes, cheese, wine and berries that were so perfect, it looked like they were each chosen by hand. The host was very friendly and helpful as well. Can’t recommend highly enough.
