Cenarth is a pretty village in Carmarthenshire in mid-west Wales located by the banks of the River Teifi and is home to the spectacular Cenarth Falls, an impressive cascade of waterfalls. These waterfalls are one of the main draws to Cenarth, and are really stunning due to the wooden valley that provides a gorgeous backdrop, as well as the 17th century flour mill that is situated by the falls. With tree lined streets and a location surrounded by fields and meadows, Cenarth could be a great place for a country cottage holiday.
About Cenarth for Cottage Holidays
Lovers of nature will marvel as the salmon and sea trout which can be seen leaping up the falls in the autumn as they migrate back home upstream to spawn. Seeing these mighty fish jump out of the river is extremely exciting and is a must-see if you are in Cenarth during this time of year.
The National Coracle Museum is located in Cenarth and makes an interesting half day trip from the village whilst on a cottage holiday. A coracle is a lightweight and small boat traditionally used in Wales, but also in other parts of the UK, and this museum is dedicated to providing information about this interesting boat which has a rich history. On display are coracles from around the world as well as from Wales.
For an exciting day out whilst on a cottage break why not try Cenarth Adventure Centre, a great place to take kids (and big kids!). Children aged 4 and up can participate in paintballing, laser combat, remote control buggies, archery and a woodland challenge course with activities designed to test skills such as leadership. It is a great day out for those who want to try something different and you are bound to have a brilliant time!
