We really enjoyed our time at Bryncyn and we intend to return again soon. We particularly enjoyed the isolation and the quiet, all we heard was bird song and cattle lowing, we spent many happy hours sat in the garden watching the red kites overhead. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed including a good shower and a comfy bed. We loved the kitchen diner with the big door open and the hot tub just outside. Definitely wish we had booked a longer stay!

We had a great long weekend at Bryncyn. It was beautifully warm and comfortable and we loved the large kitchen for long lingering meals. Some of us used the hot tub looking at the cloudless starry sky without any light pollution, a treat!

Great peaceful location, enjoyed watching large starling murmurations fly overhead from the hot tub. Had some issues working the hot tub, but the owner got in touch to sort it out. Lovely kitchen to cook a Sunday roast.

Absolutely stunning place in a beautiful location. The combination of a cosy vernacular cottage and a light and airy brutalist extension works better than you could ever believe. And the hot tub under the stars was the icing on the cake!

Bryncyn is ideally placed to explore the coastlines of Cardigan, pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire. We appreciate a minimalist style but would of liked a spare cupboard or shelf to store the food and drinks that we took also a hook to hang coats, dog lead. The shower was wonderful as was the hot tub. Having no WiFi was perfect to escape the world and relax, We were really lucky with the weather and enjoyed checking out the stars. The dark sky area is amazing. Lovely opportunity to see this months conjunction of planets. Loved our ti e there xx

Bryncyn is a lovely stone cottage with a modern twist. It was very spacious for just the two of us and we loved every minute. The bed was very comfortable upstairs in a light and airy space. Our favourite part is the minimalist concrete extension kitchen/diner and of course the hot tub. We spent lots of time just relaxing in the tub looking at sky. We would love to return to experience Bryncyn in other seasons.

We only live an hour from the property on the other side of Carmarthenshire but a holiday at Bryncyn felt like being transported to another world. Blissful quietness and beautiful views interspersed with birdsong. Wild hedgerows and winding roads alongside babbling brooks leading you to remote settlements and ancient pubs. A bed that quickly sends you off into deep sleep and a glorious hot tub perfect for a chilly starry night or a morning wake up. It was very hard to leave!
