It was originally owned by a succession of shipowners and sea captains: the house provided a perfect vantage point to view their ships setting sail for Europe or the Americas, as it sits in a prominent position on a peninsula with the beautiful River Teifi curving around. Today the Teifi is a popular waterway for those that enjoy boats as well as a rich haven for natural wildlife, including otters and a wide variety of birds. Poppit Sands beach is only about a mile away providing a stunning playground. The popular village of St Dogmaels is also only about a mile away providing award winning gastropub, community owned pub in which the estate even has a share, Abbey ruins with cafe, working water mill, weekly market, and lots of community activities, including a choir, theatre group and sporting activities.The larger shopping town of Cardigan is about two miles away providing banks, high street shops, and restaurants.
