This cottage surpassed expectations, we found it so incredibly peaceful. The accommodation is high quality, clean and well appointed. The hosts are welcoming and accommodating, but also feel you're not imposing as the properties are nicely separated, providing the privacy and peace we love. Our dog enjoyed the garden space, as did we. We had beautiful weather to use the sun loungers and eat meals outside at the patio table. Absolutely loved our stay here.

Perfect for a couple of seniors who like to walk - but not too much - and take in the breathtaking landscapes on foot and by car. The local population was 100 sheep to each human and we enjoyed the ratio very much. Cottage was outstandingly comfortable without exception, and well equipped, including information about sights and walks in the region. Hosts were always friendly and helpful to a fault. Highest recommendation possible.

Brilliant place to stay, had everything we needed. Loved eco friendly the property is, including the cleaning products. Hosts were lovely, property nice and clean (just a couple of fresh cobwebs that cant be helped whilst out in the country). Only downside was the ev charger wasnt compatible and the property is a little off the beaten track (though this is to be expected in this beautiful part of Wales.
