We have just come back from a truly magical week’s holiday in three of the Cwm Connell cottages. We were three generations (plus dog!) ranging in age from 74 to 3 and we had the best holiday ever.
The cottages were delightful and beautifully restored in a way that combined comfort with practicality and we were all able to eat together in the evenings. We swam every day, walked, explored, surfed, read and played card games, went coasteering and took a boat trip around Skomer Island – truly something for everyone and exactly how a family holiday should be.
The peaceful atmosphere and opportunity to appreciate every moment in nature meant that we all slowed down in a way that is sometimes difficult to achieve in modern life. Masses of butterflies and wild flowers and an extraordinary absence of traffic and uncrowded sandy beaches gave a real sense of tranquility. Thank you, Emma and Alex, for looking after us so well and for making Cwm Connell such a memorable place for a family holiday

We stayed in Fron Haul as part of a big group of friends when we came to celebrate our friend Sophie’s 60th. The set up at Cwm Connell was perfect for the event – staying in the individual buildings within the complex meant we had our privacy amidst all the sociability. The cottage was so nicely converted and a lovely little bolt hole – great shower, comfy beds and plenty of space to relax.

We have just had a wonderful three generational half term at Cwm Connell Coastal Cottages. The cottages are extremely comfortable and beautifully fitted out, from the solid wooden kitchens down to the perfect light switches, from the woodburning stoves (with plentiful supplies of wood) to the cosy welsh blankets. Alex and Emma are great hosts, attending to our every need up to and including yoga lessons from Alex! They are in gorgeous coastal country, with lovely walks and beaches nearby, castles and standing stones to explore. Thoroughly recommended in every way.
