Cosy Fisherman's Cottage in the very heart of Aberdovey -Pet Friendly

Cosy one bedroomed cottage nestled in a private terrace right in the centre of Aberdovey just set back from the main square. All amenities are in easy reach including the pet friendly beach and numerous restaurants, pubs and shops.
This charming cottage retains many of its original features including a wood burning stove with slate fireplace and oak flooring. It has a terraced enclosed separate rear garden that overlooks the village and estuary.

This cute, cosy cottage is ideal for couples- it has a light airy feel to the layout but a lovely wood burning stove cosy up to in the evening. Whilst it is tucked away in a secluded Terrace you are still right in the heart of the village just steps away from the dogs allowed beach, the restaurants and the lovely pet friendly pubs.
There is also an enclosed terraced garden which overlooks the village towards the estuary a real sun trap in the summer!

Once on Copperhill Street drive straight up and when you see FatFace on your right look for a small alleyway on your left in fifty yards between the two white houses. You can park to unload at the end of the alley but then you will need to move your car either further up the road under the railway bridge where there are often spaces along the roadside or down on the front opposite the main church if there are no spaces there there are two main car parks in Aberdovey one opposite the beach and the other next to the Penhelig Arms just past the railway bridge.

There will be a car park permit on the table for you to use whilst you are at the cottage. It is valid in both pay & display car parks in Aberdovey and any other Gwynedd Council run car parks.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO LEAVE THIS ON THE TABLE WHEN YOU LEAVE FOR THE NEXT GUESTS AS A REPLACEMENT COSTS £25

Check in is 4pm and check out at 11am we can sometimes change these if requested in advance.


Key found in key-safe to the left of the front door.

Recently refurbished to a high standard, this beautiful former Fisherman's cottage at Evans Terrace will provide you with the perfect seaside holiday in the heart of Aberdovey - a picturesque coastal village.
Situated in a secluded terrace, set back from the main square, you will be a hop, skip and a jump away from all this village has to offer and the local beach. The sandy beach is segregated into a family friendly area for building sand castles, water sports or a spot of crabbing off the ever popular jetty whilst further along is a pet friendly beach stretching for several miles. You will be in easy reach of shops, pubs and restaurants, whilst far enough away to remain undisturbed at night.
This charming cottage retains many original features, including a wood burning stove and slate fireplace. It also has many modern amenities including oak flooring throughout the ground floor, Wi-Fi and a fully equipped modern kitchen and bathroom.

RUBBISH AND RECYCLING:
Household waste: The bin is in the wooden bin store.Place in sealed plastic bags inside the green bin if this is full please take the black bags down to the bins along the front so there is room for the next guests

Collection day and point: RUBBISH CAN BECOME A PROBLEM SO PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
Unfortunately rubbish is only collected once every 3 weeks in Aberdovey please ask the neighbours if you are there on Thursday if the bins are going to be collected next morning and wheel down to the bottom of thie alleyway. IF IN DOUBT PLEASE PUT THE GREEN BIN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE ALLEYWAY EVERY THURSDAY EVENING

HEATING: There is central heating throughout, each radiator has a thermostatic control and the heating is switched on inside the boiler cupboard in the bedroom. Simply turn the dial to the required heat be careful not to set the radiators too high if you have little ones. The heated towel rail only works when the central heating is on so in the summer just turn the radiators off with the thermostatic controls and that will leave just the towel rail on.

Perfect place to decompress.
Cosy is the word! This cottage was the perfect place for us to snuggle up and relax this week. Storm Barra hit the Welsh coast hard but our time in Aberdovey was still a wonderful experience. Lisa had left so much info on places to go and things to do that we still had plenty to get on with. Although we opted for spending a lot of time beside the log fire in the cottage as it was just so comfortable and inviting. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchen was small but very well equipped and the bathroom is modern and clean. The proximity to local shops/cafes and the beach was a real sell for us- and we did get some time on the beach thankfully! The car parking was very straightforward as well. Would 100% recommend to others and hope to come back soon!

Lovely little place and great location.
Excellent communication with host especially as we had to keep moving the date because of Covid. Lovely quaint little place and so warm (we stayed in October) we didn’t need to use the log burner. The place is located less than a minute away from the shops and pubs and beach. Couldn’t fault it and would stay again.
