The Surrounding Areas

You will find Abercoed Farmhouse situated on the outskirts of the "smallest" town in Ceredigion namely Tregaron. There is bed and breakfast, camping, and can accommodate up to six touring caravans/motor homes on the beautiful 4 acre site situated between the rolling hills of Wales with views of mountains in the background. Tregaron, which is a 10 minute walk away, has all amenities including banks, post office as well as pubs, cafe, a real butchers and take aways for campers who do not like to cook!

Travelling to Abercoed takes you through the Cambrian Mountains, with its valleys cut out from the last ice age, forming high sides and flat valley floors along which run fresh, clear rivers from the upper lands, some have even found a spot to pull over, dipped in a cup and tasted the untainted mountain elixior,

You can approach Abercoed from the south coast or the north coast of Wales, being approximately halfway between the two .

The beautiful countryside surrounding Tregaron includes the Tregaron bog "cors caron" nature reserve which is said to be one of the finest raised bog systems in the whole of the UK. It is a favourite haunt and hunting ground of the Red Kite, one of the biggest birds, alongside the Buzzard, in the UK. The Nature Reserve make a lovely place for walkers, bird watchers, nature lovers and photographers,

Further up the road, just 25 miles, is the famous Snowdonia, another place for the walker to visit as well as the photgrapher and painter, with deep valleys and high ridges adding excitment to the landscape, yet closer to home is the River Teifi, reputed to be one of the best places in the UK to fish for salmon, where fishing take place in tranquil surroundings, so all you need is some bait, a rod licence and some sandwhiches for an uninterupted day of pleasure.

And for those who like a little seafaring adventure there is Aberarth where you can do some surfing, or take a boat ride in Cardigan Bay and watch for bottled nose dolphins.

Abercoed Farmhouse

The farmhouse itself is from the Georgian period and is built with thick stone walls, keeping the place cool in summer and warm in winter, Although extensive modernisation and rebuilding has taken place throughout, it has been done with a caring hand and an eye to detail. The people who run Abercoed, Jane and Steve, fell in love with the place when they first saw it and believe you will too.

Entering the farmhouse through the front door, you feel the peacefulness envelope you and you begin to unwind, with the dining room to the left, where you will be served your breakfast in the morning, then you go upstairs to the 2 double and 2 single rooms, all carefully redecorated and with 3 having views over the Tregaron Bog Nature Reserve whilst the last room looks over the back garden.

A small stream runs down the boundaries on one side of Abercoed, so in Spring time there is the possibility of frogs and other small fauna and flora associated with streams and areas that have not been used by humans on a daily basis.

Jane and Steve have a bikers welcome policy, and can offer the entire site for a small rally of 300 to 500 people. Please email them for more information on this.

Double rooms are based on two people sharing, for any extra people sharing a double room there is a £10 supplement. All rooms include a full English or Continental breakfast.

There is a small function avaliable should it be required, please email Jane for more details on this.
