The Coastal Carriage

We had a lovely time staying at the carriage. The location was spectacular and the accommodation was very comfortable. Excellent touches included good knives in the kitchen, blankets, starter basket of wood, local OS maps and a good selection of books. The visiting wildlife (robin, blackbirds, stone chats, rabbit) were all very welcome. The weather wasn't great, but we still had a really good time.

We had a wonderful stay at The costal carriage. The setting is amazing and the carriage is unique and wonderfully cozy. It has everything you need for your holiday without compromising on the unique interior. It felt like going back in time and sleeping on a train. The wood burner is easy to use and effective and makes for very cosy evenings with the wind whistling outside. I would like to thank the owners for letting us share their remarkable space and also to thank them for maintaining its uniqueness. I can’t wait to go back.

It was all really lovely and I'd like to stay again. The carriage is beautifully done, all details were appreciated. There were no logs inside but I saw where they were and would have filled a basket if we had wanted a fire.

Sept 2020 what an amazing 3 nights - massive HP fans so a real treat - Wendy is perfect in every way and has been converted in a sympathetic manor to retain her charm. Nights spent playing HP trivial pursuit and listening to Radio 3. Coffee and Welsh cakes and sparkling water were lovely too thank you. Saw a glimpse of dolphin , a very small lizard and some diving youths off the cliff face... Felt like when sitting there the scenery would start changing as we left platform. Aberporth beach lovely and dog friendly too. Thank you for a wonderful stay - just what we needed at end of a strange year.

The Coastal Carriage - aka Wendy - is set in the most spectacular spot, overlooking a cove and headland with views to Tresaith and the rest of Aberporth. The coastal footpath outside the gate is frequented by any number of curious train buffs, wanting to know the history of this very lovingly restored carriage. It's a comfortable, warm welcome with outstanding views that we'd thoroughly recommend. Great woodburner means you can remain toasty in the worst weather, and watch the skies darken to starlight. Do take a torch!

Wonderful quirky place to stay in a beautiful spot. Surprisingly sociable too as the coastal path is full of walkers and runners, many of whom stop by the gate to take a look and say hello as you are eating on the verandah. Lovely wild swimming spot in the cove just below, which attracts kamikaze local guys jumping off the cliffs at high tide - an impressive sight. But best of all is in the early mornings or evenings when the passers by are minimal and it’s just you, the dolphins and the sky. Even a sick baby didn’t take away the magic of the location, and our twins loved it! Definitely a special place to stay on this beautiful coastline. Thanks UTT.

We had a lovely stay at Wendy. It was truly magical for our three boys (aged 6,5 and 3). We spotted some dolphins and seals from the carriage. The beach was close by as well as plenty of routes for walks. We look forward to a future stay at The Costal Carriage.

Location is perfect, right on Coastal Path. Ideal for walking and wildlife spotting eg dolphins and seabirds. Not luxurious, but owners have made a good balance between keeping original features and still providing everything needed for an enjoyable stay eg comfortable beds, decent shower, well equipped kitchen. Sea views and night skies amazing.

We have had the most wonderful weekend in ‘Wendy’, the train carriage. We’ve spent the evenings playing board games and reading in front of the wood burner and the daytimes exploring Cardigan and Aberporth. We don’t want to go home!

I absolutely adored my stay at Wendy. The cosy, wooden decor of the unspoilt carriage, the large balcony and the sound of the sea just outside was simply perfect. Truly adore this unique place!
