Ffynnonddewi Guesthouse is close
to the banks of the River Teifi, a famous sewin and salmon river. The Pont
Gogoyan is a natural crossing point that was once a ford and Ffynnonddewi was
the local forge and a busy meeting point up to the 1960s. Now it is a quiet
country lane.
The valley rises gently into the foothills of the Cambrian mountains and all
around is both sheep and diary farming pasture. Red kites and buzzards are
regularly seen over the garden and swans and Canadian geese return throughout
the year to nest by Pont Gogoyan
One mile away is the village of Llanddewi Brefi. Always famous for its very
historical church where St David preached, it is now internationally known
because of the TV show ’Little Britain’. In fact many people think it’s a
fictional place, but be assured there is a pub and a shop and some wonderful
views across the mountains and river at any time of the year. The University
town of Lampeter is 7 miles away and the unspoilt coastline of Cardigan Bay is
15 miles away at Aberaeron.
We have recognised Welsh Tourist Board Cyclist and Walkers' Certificates.
