The Forge at Glanmedeni

A cosy, adults-only hideaway for two - with dogs very much included.

Tucked away in the quiet countryside of southern Ceredigion, The Forge is a calm, private place to slow down.

Think unhurried mornings, woodsmoke in the air, and the coast close enough for spontaneous beach walks.

If you’re looking for a dog-friendly cottage near the sea in West Wales - somewhere peaceful,

beautifully cared for, and genuinely welcoming

you’ll feel very at home here.

Step outside into your own enclosed garden — ideal for morning coffee, evening stargazing, and letting the dogs potter safely.

A peaceful escape for two


The Forge is made for couples who want space, privacy, and comfort - without the bustle.


  • Sleeps 2 adults
  • Adults-only (no children)
  • Private, owner-run, and quietly tucked away
  • Ideal for short breaks or longer, slower stays

Deeply dog-friendly


We know a great break feels better when your dogs are happy too. The Forge is set up so you can relax - and they can settle in straight away.


  • Fully enclosed private garden
  • Off-lead exercise area nearby
  • Dog welcome pack and thoughtful extras
  • Paws wash area (perfect after sandy or muddy walks)
  • Dogs are welcome on the sofa/chairs (with a blanket)


Two dogs are standard, and we can often welcome three - just ask.

What others think of us....

Fantastic 4 night stay at Glanmedeni. The setting is beautiful with gorgeous beaches on your doorstep. The accommodation was spotless and attention to detail in the guidebook makes everything easy. Jess went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed..... the welcome hamper was a lovely touch and the home made food delicious. We’ve raved about it to friends and plan to return!

The Forge is the perfect place to unwind. The building has been renovated to the highest standard with quality fixtures, fittings evident everywhere. Our host Jess was very generous with her welcome baskets of goodies. It was so quiet and a perfectly dark sky to enjoy the stars. A great location to explore the nearby coastal path with other walks just outside the door. We will definitely return.

The perfect place for a peaceful couples retreat, with the beach a 10 minute drive away with some lovely pubs to grab food or drink.


The cottage itself has been fully refurbished with everything we needed. I would fully recommend to anyone wanting to get away, recharge and reconnect.

Absolutely loved our stay in The Forge at Glanmedeni, it was the perfect weekend retreat. The accommodation has been finished beautifully by Jess and was a pleasure to be in (especially a bed that’s genuinely comfortable!) The views at Glanmedeni are stunning and we particularly enjoyed walks on the nearby Tresaith beach and in the ancient Tŷ Canol woods, which were magnificent and only a short drive away (also a must see for any lotr fans!)  Highly recommend and very much looking forward to staying here again soon!
