Gorsdalfa is situated near a Site of Special Scientific Interest (S.S.S.I.) a short distance from the Lampeter to Llanrhystud road. Local amenities are available at the nearby villages of Cross Inn, Llanon and Llanrhystud all of which are within 5 miles travelling distance to include post office, general stores, garage and primary school. The Georgian harbour town of Aberaeron is some 8 miles or so travelling distance on the coast, the town having a good range of amenities to include banks and secondary school. The market town of Aberystwyth is some 14 miles or so travelling distance to the north and the market town of Lampeter is some 12 miles or travelling distance to the south.
Gorsdalfa was up to about 20 years ago a large working farm, since that period the majority of the land has been sold separately and the outbuildings converted to provide for 2 cottages, one of which is included in the sale and the other is available as an option. Included in the sale is a large traditional barn and stable which has recently had planning permission for conversion to a 4 bedroomed holiday let.
