Over The Rainbow



Over the Rainbow, Vegetarian Guest House - Cardigan Bay
An idyllic setting for your special day.


Over the Rainbow is a vegetarian Guest House in a secluded 18th century Georgian Mansion (Plas Tyllwyd).  Set in 18 acres of gardens and woodland; a haven of rural tranquility in this beautiful part of west Wales. Whilst the house retains many of the original features and quirks of a bygone age; it has a welcoming and cosy feel offering good quality accommodation with bedrooms bearing the influence of female myths and legends from around the world.

The warm and relaxed atmosphere at Over the Rainbow has provided many special memories since opening in 2003; whether staying as B&B guests, attending events and workshops, or hiring the house exclusively as a unique venue for an intimate civil ceremony.

"We arrived at Over the Rainbow as guests and we left as friends. The panic of previous months evaporated as we walked through the door. It is this calm serenity that attracted us to Over the Rainbow and one of the main reasons why we chose it for our special day. Never once did we feel pressured by Marie whose attention to detail and personalised care was commented upon by all of our guests.  The menu was designed for our eclectic guests and the service superb. All our guests were amazed by the timeless beauty of the house, its grounds and the individuality of the rooms.  We wouldn't have changed a thing! "

If you are looking for a unique venue to hire for an intimate civil ceremony, look no further.  We offer a high level of personal service and are happy to take on the organisational stress of your special day so that the ceremony runs smoothly and that you and your guests leave here with happy memories.
