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.

Number 3 Evans Terrace 1 Bedroom

Kitchen:
The boiler heats water on demand and so there will always be hot water available.
There should be plenty of cleaning products under the sink for you to use during your stay.
There is a Tassimo coffee machine and microwave.

Living room:
we don't supply fuel for the log burner but you can buy everything you need just across the road at Dovey Marine.
Please be extremely careful if lighting the log burner especially if you have small children with you.

Bedroom:
The boiler is situated in a cupboard in the bedroom with instruction booklets in the top drawer should you want to set the heating on a timer. Please remember to turn this off when you leave.

Bathroom:
The heated towel rail works when the central heating is turned on (see notes above).

KEYS TO THE PROPERTY: via Keysafe
If you misplace a key there are spare ones kept at Scrubadub or call Louis.
PLEASE REPLACE THE KEY IN THE KEY SAFE WHEN YOU LEAVE!
Please remember to lock the doors, close windows, turn off central heating and turn off all light switches when you leave the property.
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

Bottle Recycling: Place in the stacked recycling box trolley in between the bins in the bin store.
Collection day and point: Early every Friday morning at bottom of the alley

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.

What a disappointment
Unfortunately we were unable to go for this much-anticipated weekend away due to the beginnings of the Coronavirus crisis. Lisa was very understanding and helpful and we will look to re-book as soon as things get back to normal. I have had to rate as if we stayed there in order to submit this - but from what I saw online and the helpfulness of Lisa I know we missed out on a great weekend at a lovely property

Lovely cottage
Very comfortable and well presented property, ideal for a couple getaway by the sea. Facilities were clean and modern and the woodburner was an added treat, but without that the cottage was still warm and cozy. Aberdovey on your doorstep with all that this lovely village has to offer. Would definitely recommend.

absolutely fab
weather was fantastic, easy to find the cottage and having the car park pass was a bonus. Cottage clean-even though dog friendly there was no smells or tell tail signs of other dogs, facilities within the property had all we needed.The garden was great for a few drinks and a relax in the evening- tranquil .Lovely shops and amenities including the indian take away and pubs but especially the butchers just down the road (fab sausages!) the neighbours were also very friendly. will book again many thanks Sarah, Spen and Doug the dog

A lovely little cottage, perfect location, but needs a little TLC
We loved our stay in Aberdovey. We stayed at number 3, although the photos were confusing as I thought I had booked no 4. The cottage was lovely, although not very clean, and a few repairs needed doing. I texted the owner who was very helpful and keen to get it sorted. The cottage will be perfect i'm sure, with a lick of paint, a deep clean and a little tender loving care.

Precious quiet time
We stayed December, this is a beautiful little cottage with local amenities. As it was out of season it was very quiet but the reality is it was just what we needed. As we stayed in and had a totally relaxing break. Visiting sea breeze on the evening for something to eat. I would totally recommend it and may consider visiting again when the weather is better !
