This property delivers on spectacular views; a cosy and quiet countryside retreat. The chalet is well equipped, the WiFi worked well, the beds were comfortable and everything was clean and tidy. The drive up is a bit hairy but no more so than any countryside road in Wales. You are surrounded by working farms and there are sheep and cows and horses grazing everywhere. It was quite lovely.

My family and grandchildren loved the property site.But the property itself had everything you needed, the bedding was clean, but the Chalet itself could have been cleaner. Which was a shame. Just lazy cleaning.Somethings could do with a update.But we had a lovely 5 daybreak

This was one of the best stays i’ve stayed till now. The property is in a very good location and the view is amazing. The host was really responsive. You get a very good internet connection, good games and a great collection of all kitchen amenities to cook. The walk near the property near the hills with a great sunset was amazing. The property is very close to aberdovy and has a great view. Will definitely visit next time.
