View Self-Catering Holiday Cottages in Aberaeron

On the west coast of Wales lies Aberaeron, an old fishing town with a beautiful harbour, panoramic views out to sea, and a lovely choice of seaside holiday cottages of all sizes. Being so close to the sea, there are plenty of opportunities to learn certain water sports, such as sailing or rowing. Get involved and participate in a regatta or a race – the community is large, but it’s also inviting and always happy to welcome tourists and visitors to their beautiful holiday lets. At dusk, the harbour is lit up, and the promenade is decorated with fairy lights, and as the evening sets in, the town glows. Once a year, a carnival breathes excitement into the town as it takes over the roads and narrow streets, creating a day-long party that runs well into the night. With stalls, sweets and music, there’s something for everyone, and if you plan your holiday to fit in with this summer carnival, your self-catering cottage by the sea will be perfect.
