The details
Tucked away in one and a half acres of wildflower meadow and overlooking the stunning Teifi Valley, The Hiveaway is a cosy cabin, perfect for exploring West Wales. This bespoke cabin has been designed in a gentle curve, mirroring the landscape around with hexagonal windows creating the impression of a honeycomb. It’s been handcrafted using reclaimed and antique pieces such as the Welsh chapel doors and the slate worktops from an old snooker table. It’s a peaceful spot to reconnect with nature, cooking outdoors over the fire pit or relaxing in the wood-fired hot tub as the sun sets over the valley.
The cabin is a cosy hideaway all year round with a log burner to keep you warm and toasty in chilly weather and a deck outside for when the sun is shining. In the mornings, wake up in your king size bed with its stargazing skylight above and open up the cabin doors. You’ll be able to enjoy the view down to the valley from the comfort of your bed as you sip your morning coffee. Get breakfast on the go in the well-equipped kitchen and start planning the day’s adventures at the dining table inside, or out on the deck in the summer months.
After a trip to the beach or a long walk in the countryside, put your feet up in the snug and relax in front of the log burner or get the wood-fired hot tub going. The ensuite means there’s no need to leave any home comforts behind and it features a fab, hot rainfall shower. There’s also a fire pit area to the front of the cabin where you can cook dinner on the grill and stay out late into the evening stargazing and toasting marshmallows.
There’s plenty to explore in the surrounding area and the first thing you might want to do is wander from the cabin, over a little bridge crossing a stream and then head up to the top field. Here, you’ll be able to enjoy the panoramic views and spot birds of prey and insects buzzing around the wildflowers as you get your bearings. There are plenty of walking trails, including a beautiful footpath along the river to Henllan Falls. Activities such as kayaking, coasteering and rock climbing can all be organised at Llandysul Paddlers nearby. The cabin is also close to the coast and a short drive will get you to New Quay or the Georgian harbour town of Aberaeron.

This cabin clearly has had a lot of love and attention given to it and is a fantastic place to hunker down in. The bedding is super comfy and all of the extras have been thought about should you need them, even down to oil salt and pepper. The owners have add ons such as breakfast hampers, logs and lighting the hot tub for an extra cost. One negative i will say is the cabin is fully off grid, which we did not realise meant we could not plug in high powered items like my partners work laptop or my curlers, as the inverter just doesn't allow for that amount of power usage, it can also get very cold as the only heating is via a log fire-which does get toasty in the end! But I think if it is the only heat source available the logs should be provided for the full stay. That being said it didn't take away from a stunning location and relaxing break away from life, the farm it is situated on even has alpacas and chickens, really cute! And one of the owners asked if we were having a good time and text on the first day to make sure everything was okay. The attention to detail is not lost on this trip and they clearly care about their guests, I would return, but I'd bring warmer clothes :) it's very much suitable for people who love off grid life and taking it slow, it was incredibly peaceful and we truly loved every moment! Thank you for a lovely stay.

Stunning location, cabin and facilities fantastically crafted with so much attention to detail I cannot recommend it enough. The wood fired hot tub is a real treat as the sun is setting and the view from bed when you wake is unsurpassed. Very relaxing. Even their eggs are outstanding ! Plus there’s a fantastic pub within walking distance with amazing food (The Daffodil)
