Initial impressions were good , but I was disappointed when entering the room unfortunately. The problem with a kitchen and bedroom in the same room is the occasional cooking grease smell from previous use whilst laying in bed on an evening.

Arrived early but luckily I was allowed to check in. Beautiful scenery in the heart of Wales. Property a little dated with a few faults but beyond that had a lovely weekend. The outdoor pool was very busy but expected because of the beautiful weather. Would definitely recommend.

Needs a little TLC - but well worth the visit

Overall we had a great trip, beautiful mountains, relaxing family time, good food and beer. The facilities need a little TLC but the facilities are there. We had our own communal space which you don't get in a standard hotel room, we swam indoors and outdoors, used the steam room and Jacuzzi, we played pool and games in the reception area, Table tennis and volley ball in the village hall, played golf and tennis and had lovely walks along the trim trail and then there was the rest of Wales.

Nice location. Let down by the dirty and aging acc

Facilities and accomodation dated. Lovely grounds and location. But loose and missing pavings on steps. Dirty dead moth filled apartments and indoor swimming pool with huge sections of tiles missing. Such a shame that things feel rough around the edges given the potential of the place.
