A cosy, romantic cottage with country views, ideal for couples - 9 miles inland from the famous West Wales coast in the Aeron valley.

Ffynnon-Oer Isaf (pronounced "Funon Oyr Eesav", meaning Lower Cool Spring) is ideal for couples, but has a sofabed if more than 2 in party. Travel cot also available.

Built sometime before 1750, it enjoys a breathtaking original eighteenth century interior, the main room soaring up to the original oak roof structure 5m above.

This is the quintessential traditional 'croglofft' cottage where the bed is up steep steps on a mezzanine gallery overlooking the main living space. This gives a sense of space, as does the open country views from the windows and French doors.

There is a sofabed in the lounge so the cottage can sleep up to 4 if required, though we have more suitable cottages for 4 adults.

The cottage is located in a small rural hamlet of about ten houses, in the Aeron valley between Lampeter (with its ancient University) and the quaint harbour of Aberaeron. Click here to see a short amateur video of the dolphins off the nearby coast - boat trips run several times a day in summer (around £6>7 per person).

Great uninterrupted views to the rear, where the French doors have been fitted into what was the cowshed entrance.

The cottage doesn't have broadband but only a 12 minute drive to the Harbourmaster where you can enjoy free wireless Broadband over a coffee/ drink or award-winning seafood.

12 >15 minutes drive (9 miles) to the beach and harbour at Aberaeron (great for seafood meals) or just relax in the garden and enjoy the fine views.

Local pub (serves food) in walking distance (half mile), local shop 1.5 miles or 10 minute drive (4.5 miles) to Lampeter where there is a delicatessen, specialist wine merchants, great Indian restaurant, takeaways as well as a good choice of pubs.

Oil-fired central heating is provided throughout and there is a traditional cast-iron wood-burning stove for cosy nights in.

Outside you will find your patio and garden with uninterrupted rural views. Often lambs or calves the other side of the fence to amuse you.

Well-behaved pets are allowed at this cottage, though please be aware the rear garden is not enclosed, and dogs that are so minded could escape via the parking area and down the drive onto the road.

Ffynnon Oer Isaf is semi-detached to Ffynnon Oer Uchaf (they were built in the 1700s as pair of semi-detached cottages), and their proximity means that they can be booked together for a group of up to 10 people. Both have all seperate and private facilities, entrances, parking etc.

Restricted headroom in parts upstairs, and steep stairs mean the croglofft will not be suitable for toddlers or the infirm (NB there is a sofabed downstairs in lounge).

If travelling by public transport take train to Carmarthen or Aberystwyth and then the Traws Cambria (X40) bus which passes the cottage.

You can arrange a delivery of organic produce from this local company ready for your arrival.

You can arrange a Welsh food hamper to be ready for your arrival through this local company.

Gwely-soffa ar gael os oes mwy na dau berson yn y parti. Cot-deithio (i fabi) ar gael hefyd.

Wedi ei adeiladu cyn 1750, mae'r bwthyn yma yn mwynhau cynlluniad mewnol gwreiddiol o'r ddeunawfed ganrif, y brif ystafell yn ymestyn 5 medr lan hyd y to derw gwreiddiol.

Dyma'r bwthyn'croglofft' hanfodol draddodiadol lle mae'r gwely wedi ei leoli i fyny'r grisiau serth ar aleri mesanin, yn edrych dros yr ystafell fyw. Mae hyn yn adlewyrchu teimlad o le agored, yn gytyn a'r golygfeydd syfrdanol a welir o'r ffenestri a'r drysau Ffrengig.

Mae yna wely-soffa yn y lolfa sy'n medru cysgu i fyny i 4 os oes angen, ond mae gennym fythynod sy'n fwy addas ar gyfer 4 oedolyn yn ein eiddo.

Mae'r bwthyn wedi ei leoli mewn pentrefan gwledig, sy'n cynnwys tua 10 ty, yn Nyffryn Aeron, rhwng Llambed (efo'i Brifysgol) a harbwr prydferth Aberaeron. Cliciwch YMA i weld fidio amatur byr o'r dolffins ar yr arfordir agos. Ceir llongau pleser yn rhedeg tripiau rheolaidd yn ystod yr Haf (tua £6-£7 y person).

Golygfeydd heb-ei-ail wrth du ol y bwthyn, lle mae'r drysau Ffrengig wedi eu gosod man lle'r oedd mynediad yr hen feudy.

15 munud (naw milltir) mewn car i'r traeth a'r harbwr yn Aberaeron (bwydydd-mor ardderchog); neu ymlaciwch yn yr ardd a mwynhau'r golygfeydd rhyfeddol.

Tafarn leol (bwyd ar gael) o fewn pellter cerdded (hanner milltir), siop leol (1.5 milltir), neu 10 munud mewn car (4.5 milltir) i Lanbed lle ceir siopau delicatessen, masnachwyr gwin o sail, bwytai Indian, siopau prydau parod a dewis da o dafarnau.

Mae yna wres-canolog olew drwy gydol y bwthyn, a hefyd stof draddodiadol llosgi-pren i gadw'n gynnes.

Tu fas mae'r ardd a'r patio lle ceir golygfeydd ardderchog o gwmpas. Yn aml mae lloi neu wyn bach i'w gweld i'ch diddori yn y caeau cyfagos.

Croesawir cwn yma ond carwn eich atgoffa nad yw'r ardd ol yn amgaeedig, felly gallai'r cwn ddianc drwy'r man parcio i lawr y ffordd i'r heol.

Tai-par yw Ffynnonoer-isaf a Ffynnonoer-uchaf, (y ddau wedi eu adeiladu yn y 1700au fel par o fythynnod ). Oherwydd hyn, gall y ddau fwthyn gael eu rhentu gyda'i gilydd i bartion o hyd at 10 o bobl. Mae gan y ddau gyfleusterau, mynediad a pharcio hollol ar wahan.

Mae'r grisiau serth a'r lle-uwch-ben cyfyngedig yn gwneud y croglofft yn anaddas i blant bach a'r methedig. (N.B. mae yna wely-soffa ar lawr yn y lolfa).
