Quirky
Clifftop Carriage, Wales
“The location is perfect. We felt we were on the beach without getting out of bed! We saw dolphins every day. The beach was a couple of minutes walk away and we loved the Boy Ashore beach bar. The Carriage had everything we needed. The bed was really comfortable and on-site parking is always a bonus. We would love to stay again in the near future.”
Perched on a clifftop in Aberporth, this Edwardian railway carriage offers an unforgettable experience with its blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Converted into stunning accommodation, the carriage features breath taking sea views from all main rooms, with visibility stretching as far as North Wales on clear days. Regular sightings of bottlenose dolphins and seals add to the allure, making it a paradise for nature enthusiasts. Bird watchers will also be delighted by the presence of oyster catchers, gannets, cormorants, kestrels, and red kites. While the carriage provides such a captivating retreat that you may not want to leave, those who do venture out will find Aberporth’s sandy beaches, the Ceredigion coast path, local pubs, shops, and eateries just a short distance away. Nearby coastal gems like New Quay, Tresaith, and Llangrannog, as well as the National Trust beaches of Mwnt and Penbryn, offer more scenic exploration. This cosy and stylish carriage promises both comfort and a wealth of memories from its spectacular location.
