Brothers Rhys and Rhodri Davies have created six beautiful, Scandi-chic bedrooms in a Georgian corner house across the road from their popular bar and restaurant, purveyors of the famous Hive honey ice cream.
Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
A new contribution to Aberaeron’s rainbow waterfront, this teal-blue corner property has been transformed from solicitors’ offices to guesthouse by brothers Rhys and Rhodri Davies. Bedrooms blend Georgian elegance with Scandi cool, rich velvets with exposed stone. Ground-floor Cadwgan has a log burner, a large rain-head shower. First-floor Belle Vue has an in-room copper bath. All have a coffee machine, Hive’s honey ice cream in the minibar, works by local artist Lola Chapman, Grown Alchemist toiletries. Cross the road to the buzzy bar and restaurant, for drinks, small plates, burgers (beef, chicken, lentil), Cardigan Bay shellfish, mackerel with fennel and apple remoulade. Breakfast, from 9.30am, brings baguettes, buck rarebit, smoked salmon and guacamole muffin, a full Welsh.
