1 / 24Marmalade Cottage
Llandysul, Ceredigion
A stone farmhouse for six on a 48 acre equestrian holding near Llandysul, with a large enclosed lawned garden, a BBQ and a swing, three dogs welcome.
There is a swing in the garden, which is a small thing that tells you what sort of week is expected here. Marmalade Cottage is a stone farmhouse for six on a 48 acre equestrian holding outside Llandysul, dog friendly, with a large enclosed lawned garden and dining furniture out on it. Three dogs come with the booking and the lawn is big enough to hold all of them at once.
Three bedrooms and a bathroom, with a hallway generous enough to take coats, boots and the aftermath of three dogs. On one side of it is a living room with soft blue sofas and a window over the courtyard, and on the other a dining room with a wood burner effect fire. The kitchen is cottage style and properly equipped. Everything about the layout assumes people will come in wet and go straight out again.
Forty eight acres of equestrian ground makes for a particular kind of dog holiday. Horses mean fences, fences mean boundaries, and what you get here is a large enclosed lawn rather than a token square of grass by a back door. Three dogs and whoever is nominally in charge of them will spend most of the daylight out on it, with the swing occupied by somebody smaller and the BBQ lit by six.
Llandysul sits 1.5 miles north with a run of small shops and cafes, and the Teifi runs through it, among the better canoeing rivers in Wales. Walking trails thread the country around the holding and horse riding can be arranged locally. The Ceredigion coast is within reach when three dogs want sand instead of grass, though the holding itself will occupy them for most of a week.

Is Marmalade Cottage dog friendly?
Yes, Marmalade Cottage welcomes up to three dogs as part of the booking. The property has been set up with dogs genuinely in mind — there's a large enclosed lawned garden for them to roam, and the generous entrance hallway is designed to handle the chaos of coats, boots and three dogs coming in from a day outside.
Are dogs allowed at Marmalade Cottage year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, and the cottage feels set up for year-round visits — the layout is described as assuming people will come in wet and go straight back out again, which suggests it's built for all weathers. For confirmation of availability at specific times of year, it's worth checking directly with the property.
What should I know before visiting Marmalade Cottage with my dog?
Up to three dogs are welcome, and the large enclosed lawn on the 48-acre equestrian holding means they'll have serious space to stretch out — the fencing that comes with a working horse property gives the garden proper boundaries rather than a token patch of grass. Bear in mind that this is an equestrian holding, so horses will be part of the setting, which is worth considering if your dog isn't used to them. The Ceredigion coast is also within reach when they fancy a change of scene and a run on the beach.
