Surrounded by farmland in a beautiful rural location just 3 miles from Aberporth's sandy beach, this elegant and very spacious detached house is set at the end of a long tree-lined drive. Dating from the early 19th century and retaining many original features, it has been furnished to a high standard, and has 3 acres of grounds. The caretaker lives in converted stables to the rear of the house. Close to the borders of both Mid and South Wales, Parc y Gors provides family accommodation ideally placed for exploring the dramatic Cardigan coastline and the tranquil Dyfed countryside inland. Cardigan and Cilgerran are 5 miles away, offering a choice of shops, inns and restaurants. Cilgerran boasts huge castle ramparts with inspiring views over a forested valley. Picturesque Cardigan is crammed with Victorian and Georgian buildings, and is also home to the excellent Heritage Centre and large Welsh Wildlife Centre. Several farm parks are within a 40-minute drive. Aberporth boasts a handful of shops and inns and a Butterfly Farm, while boat cruises are available from New Quay or St Dogmaels to take in a great variety of bird and sea life. New Quay, which claims to be the original Llareggub in Dylan Thomas' Under Milk Wood, the pretty harbour has a cobblestone quay and a small, curving beach. The lower town is home to the Heritage Centre and the Marine Wildlife Centre. One of the major attractions are the bottlenosed dolphins, which can often be seen frolicking by the harbour wall, and boat trips can be taken to further increase chances of a sighting.
