The place
If you’re in need of a few days of quiet relaxation, this might be exactly what you’re looking for. At just a 20-minute walk to the sea, Fron Haul is hidden away on the coast just down the road from Cardigan. There are market towns and sleepy fishing villages to explore, picking up the sea’s bounty to cook in your modern kitchen, before dining out in the sunshine on the terrace. The dog will be spoilt for choice when it comes to days out – with a 20-minute walk down to the sea, or the coastal path probably your first choices. There’s a 4-acre enclosed paddock to burn off energy, woodland walks to head out on from the door, and two beaches nearby for mad sprints across the sands. When you’ve thoroughly tuckered out the hound, it’s back to your space to take a relaxing rinse under the waterfall shower, or book a spot in the hot tub or sauna if you fancy a little pampering. Any which way, you and the dog will be snoring in front of the wood burner by sundown.
