General
- Glamping pod near the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park
- Within a 25 minute-drive of award-winning Mwnt beach
- Four-acre smallholding with private wood-fired hot tub (no bubbles)
Castles, coast walks and cathedral cities… you can see the lot from this top spot. Blaencwm Cottages has a single glamping pod on a four-acre smallholding a short drive away from the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and the pubs, shops, tearooms, theatre, cinema and leisure centre of Cardigan.
Winner of awards, heaped with accolades by travel writers and simply loved by legions of visitors every year, the sheltered bay, soft sands and clear waters of Mwnt beach are a 25-minute drive away: bring binoculars and you might spot some of the dolphins, seals and porpoises who adopted it as their top spot a long time ago. If you want to get closer to the marine life, make the 40-minute trip to New Quay for a sea safari, but if you're more into wave riding than nature watching it's about an hour to the surfers' hotspot on the Pembrokeshire coast, Newgale.
Back at base, Blaencwm is a hugely scenic spot to relax in and enjoy a cold beer or glass of wine, with views of the Pembrokeshire countryside and the Preseli Hills. Your neighbours will be the resident ducks as well as Hettie and Dudley, the site's very cute, very friendly donkeys. For a proper pampering, make use of the site's very own hot tub for a relaxing soak in the open air.
The pod has its own shower and toilet, along with a barbecue and mini kitchen (with a stove, kettle, microwave and toaster, as well as crockery and cooking equipment), but please note that bed linen and a duvet are only provided for the double bed. The sofa bed is a small double fold-out, and you will need to bring your own bedding for this bed (bottom sheet provided) or, if you prefer, you can pitch a small pup tent outside the pod for older teenagers.

Local attractions
Building sandy castles on the beach is all well and good, but you can also bag a good half-dozen of the real thing round here: forever swapping hands until it was finally abandoned in 1400, Cilgerran Castle is a 10-minute drive away; it's 15 minutes to the crackingly well-restored Cardigan Castle, and 20 to the 13th-century ruins up at Newcastle Emlyn.
If you want to take yourself back in time a little further, make for Castell Henllys, 15 minutes away, where you can experience Iron Age life in a replica roundhouse village. There's more recent history to be explored and experienced at National Trust Llanerchaeron 50 minutes away, where the 18th-century villa and walled gardens are accompanied by a traditional working farm.
For thrill rides, high ropes and high-octane activities topped off with pettable furry animals and exotic beasts, the family-friendly trio of Oakwood Theme Park, Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo and Heatherton World of Activities are half an hour, 40 minutes and an hour away.
Quieter times can be had wandering the coastline, joining up with the Pembrokeshire Coast Path just north of Poppit Sands 20 minutes away, or strolling the streets and cathedral of ancient St. Davids, officially the UK's smallest city and an hour from the site.

Thanks for your lovely review and your very helpful feedback. This is our first winter with the hot tub and we are slowly learning what is needed - a covered area for robes is actually next on our "to do" list!
