“The property is most certainly at the very top of the scale including the furnishings.”

It was so clean with everything you needed supplied. This included milk in the fridge and even treats for a dog. We highly recommend The Retreat and would assure everyone they will not be disappointed. Thank you for everything. Elwyn and Margaret John

“In the 8 years we have been with sykes we have always been pleased and happy but this stunning Lodge is very worthy of a 5* hotel as it has everything and I mean everything you need to make you and your furry friends as comfortable as you can even allowing dogs on furniture as they provide throws for said purpose.”

Everything has been well thought out and all high quality equipment in kitchen in every aspect. It was a pleasure to cook in there.The bed again exceptional and even a lovely cooling fan for the warm nights. I have already recommended 3 of my friends. The area was the exceptional for peace and quiet and a beautiful walk in the woods and it's just at the entrance to the park. There is a beautiful crystal clear stream our boys loved and didn't want to leave, you can make that as long or as short as you like. Surrounding areas have lovely dog friendly beaches but our favourite was Poppit Sands due to the sand,water and waves and people were lovely and dogs had fab time. We definitely will visit again. Thanks to the owners for our beautiful stay.*****

“This property is worthy of a 5 star plus rating and does not disappoint in any way.”

It is set in the lovely, peaceful and quiet location surrounded by mature trees and hills. The property itself is of a good size, spotlessly clean and kitted out to a very high standard. A good size decking area both front and side capturing all the sunlight. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property to anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing holiday. The owners Karen and Adrian should be very proud of The Retreat. Hopefully we be able to rebook very soon. Thanks

The retreat was clean, cosy and had everything you needed there. A real home from home. Plenty of room both inside and outside. The location was a short walk to the beach or woodlands for walks with the dogs Will certainly be booking again

The property

The Retreat is a high-end, single-storey lodge nestled on the Woodlands Lodge Retreat in Gilfachrheda near Llanarth, Ceredigion. With access to on-site facilities and just a short distance to the nearby beach, The Retreat is a fabulous dwelling for a couple and their canine companions looking to stay in this region of Wales. Step into the open-plan living space and make yourself at home.

Take over the well-equipped kitchen as you fire up the range cooker and get to work on a home-cooked classic whilst the rest of the group set the dining table with crockery and cutlery. Afterwards, enjoy a bottle of fizz on one of the two enclosed verandas, enjoying the park’s tranquil setting.

Later you can curl up on the sofas to enjoy the contemporary and relaxing living space and watch the Smart TV. When you’re ready to call it a day ease into a bubble bath or freshen up in the en-suite shower before retiring to the king-size bed with luxury memory foam mattress. From the door, venture on a nature-filled stroll in one of the many woodlands, sure to be enjoyed by your canine companion, before enjoying a refreshing pint in the Llanina Arms. Cei Bach Beach and Penbryn Beach are easily accessible, offering golden expanses for sunbathing and sandcastle building.

The local towns of New Quay and Aberaeron are nearby, and you can lace up your walking boots and wander the coastal path spanning across Mid Wales. Further afield towards Aberystwyth, you'll also have the chance to visit Amgueddfa Ceredigion Museum, Aberystwyth Castle Grounds, dating back to the 13th century, and aboard the Vale of Rheidol Railway, offering scenic journeys across the county, before heading to Parc Natur Penglais for a picnic in the meadows. Make memories with your loved one at The Retreat.
