Is the Cwtsh safe for children?
Ffynnon Clûn is a working smallholding. It is a delightful place for children, and they can safely visit subject always
to parental control. Children remain the responsibility of parent/guardian at all times. We will point out to you any
matters of particular interest to parents (e.g. safe use of stairladder, safety by lakes and streams, no access to
working areas). Please make sure you know where your children are at all times.
What about smoking?
The Cwtsh is non-smoking.
Do you take pets?
Sorry, we don't take pets at the Cwtsh. We have set up the Cwtsh to be suitable for visitors including those with
allergies. All paints and cleaning products are organic. We can give pet owners details of local kennels and
catteries.
What about arrival times?
If you tell us in advance, we can accommodate most arrival times. That includes travellers arriving after midnight
on the Irish ferry.
And departure times?
We prefer you to leave by 10:30, but later departures are possible if we are not preparing for new arrivals. We are
always happy to store your luggage if you are spending your last day locally.

valuables.
We may leave the car and come by train. Can you meet us at the station?
With pleasure. During your stay you will also find regular coastal buses pass our gate.
How many does the Cwtsh accommodate?
The Cwtsh is ideally set up for a couple, plus a baby or younger child. We also regularly welcome larger groups.
As well as the double futon bed there is a double sofa bed in the sitting room, and we can also provide a single
futon. We also offer a touring caravan on the field behind the Cwtsh which is popular with teenage visitors who
want some independence from parents.
Is the bedroom platform easily accessible?
The Cwtsh has a typical croglofft bedroom, accessed by a very sturdy stairladder with good handrails and
handholds. This is fine for all able-bodied visitors. If someone in your party has restricted mobility, please discuss
your needs with us before booking.
Is the bedroom platform full height?
The croglofft bedroom is under the eaves, and has limited headroom to each side.

You will have keys to the front door and shutter doors of the Cwtsh. Only you and we have access to the Cwtsh
during your stay. The windows are also secured by window locks. Please close and lock windows before going out.
Your personal belongings remain your responsibility at all times. Please return your keys to us on departure.
