The Wheel @ Canllefaes Reviews

Monica
The Wheel and the site were perfect. We were a party of 9 4 children aged from almost 11 to 8 months their parents and grandparents. On site pool and play area, games room and our own hot tub. There were other children of a similar age to play with. The site was managed by the owners who were friendly and happy to answer questions. We were close to a supermarket and several beautiful beaches.
We a family of 8 stayed at The Wheel for a week. .The owners take pride in their cottages and grounds which are immaculately presented. The cottage was amazing, well catered for and spotlessly clean. It is so peaceful and I would highly recommend these cottages to anyone planning a visit to Cardigan AAA
Steven
We really enjoyed our two week stay in the Wheel Cottage. The cottage has everything you need, clean, cozy and fully equipped. The facilities are amazing, the heated pool, hot tub and the games room. There's also a dog walking field. The location of the cottage is excellent, close to amenities. We highly recommend Canllefaes Cottages, we have already booked for next year.
Charlotte
Thank you for all the facilities and extras. We had a perfect week!
Sanjay
Complete package. Comfy accommodation and wonderful hosts. If weather is bad, lots of activities on site. Not to forget picturesque surroundings.
A wonderful place to discover the pearls of Ceredigion. The swimming pool and games room are special facilities especially as the weather in Wales can be miserable.
Graham
Absolutely amazing place to stay the kids loved the park
Everything at the cottage was pristine. We couldn't fault it. Lovely hosts and all the facilities were fantastic, the pool was lovely, the firepit with Spacious Lodge for 8 in Wells-next-the-Sea was nice in the evenings and the games room was great fun. We wouldn't hesitate to re book. Thank you for a great holiday.
