  The cottage is great - completed to a very high standard and very clean. We visited the local pub at the end of the road which was lovely and the staff extremely friendly. The milk shed opposite was nice offering fresh milk, eggs, honey etc. The park opposite was great for our dog, she loved going over there for a run! We also had a lovely walk up to Paxtons Tower, lovely views over the area. However, we were very concerned that the back boundary fence was quite low and contained 2 rows of barbed wire! considering this is supposed to be a dog and child friendly property we felt this was a huge safety issue. If not remedied there will be a nasty accident for either a dog or a child. There are sheep in the field at the back of the property and this makes that boundary very interesting to a dog! There was also a significant gap at the end of the fence separating it from next door (Cliftonville House) - we blocked this off with a wheelie bin and next door wasn't occupied so not a huge problem but it will pose a problem when the 2 properties are rented out at the same time. When we arrived it was a hot and sunny weekend - there was no shade in the garden - we would recommend a patio umbrella or canopy. We also would have appreciated knowing in advance that logging was taking place on the nearly hillside - at 7.30am each morning we were woken up by chainsaws and heavy machinery - we appreciate this is beyond the property owners control but i think a notice on the booking site making people aware of this would have been appropriate and courteous. I assume at some stage this will cease but for now it is a nuisance! No welcome pack which was a shame :( - it would have been a nice touch. If these issues are addressed we think it would a lovely holiday rental.

  This was a great find and we were very pleased with our stay.

  Tip: once you have booked, have a look around the postcode area on Street View so you know exactly where the property is before you arrive - we had no issues at all. The driveway is up a little kerb and is on a slope but is fine. It is in a very quiet area. Entering the property was easy. The photos to my mind make it look a little smaller than it actually is, so expect a bit more space! It is very well furnished and there is a lot of storage space so you can unpack all your stuff and it immediately feels like home. The kitchen is well equipped (and the smoke alarm definitely works! - open a window if you are pan-frying a steak...), the lounge area is lovely and the TV has all the usual Freeview channels, the shower was hot with a decent water pressure, and the bed was not too hard or soft. Wifi was weaker than the mega-fast service I have at home and was better (closer to router presumably) on the TV side of the property than the kitchen side; mobile phone data reception was better upstairs (or outside). Our medium-sized and occasionally excitable dog settled in straight away. As did we. Location: absolutely ideal for trips to the beaches (30 mins south-west) and country walks in the Brecon Beacons (30+ mins north-east). Good value: yes! Niggles: of course, it's a house, but all too minor to mention. Cleanliness: immaculate. Communication with the owner (who popped round shortly after we arrived to check all was well): great. Not to do with the house but a shout-out for dog-friendly places nearby: Pembrey beach (for a very long walk off-lead, check tide times); Bailey's Dog Cafe in Carmarthen (for understanding what a dog-friendly cafe really means, voted #2 in the UK).

  ABsolutely gorgeous property.

  An intimate, cosy stay that has everything available to you and makes for a real 'home away from home', and a peaceful retreat away from the noise of life. I didn't want to leave. The property is accessed via the owners driveway which is no problem atol to me, and as read in anothers review, at night the pathway to the back door of ffaur draig is unlit but all it takes to solve this is your mobile phone light. The property has far too much character and comfort to offer to miss out on. I highly recommend this place. A lovely private retreat at the far end of an estate so there is nobody looking into the property. It boasts of beautiful furniture inside that is also really comfy and It is a lovely, quiet area too. I loved everything about this place and felt very safe and well looked after. If i needed anything atol the owners were happy to help and Elaine checked in on me the first night to make sure I was okay. A lovely touch. Thankyou for a beautiful stay I shall look forward to coming again.

  A pet friendly place should have somewhere to dispose of a dog poo.

  Also shame there is no footpaths and you have to drive to walk the dog. Drive is near enough impossible to use - needs lowered curb. Also no information that the place is not accessible if you have any difficulties with walking - steep drive, steps and narrow alley. No privacy in the garden - kitchen overlooks neighbours hot tub. Overall clean but shower grubby and door needs attention - found missing screw on the floor by the toilet. Kitchen relatively clean but inside cupboards and drawers dirty. Also had to wash all cutlery and crockery before use. Far too many reed diffusers and airfreshners - counted 6! Had to put them away as the smell was far too strong. Also no WiFi or phone signal - really affected our stay and the owner wasn't bothered about us contacting and asking to resolve this. No bins to dispkse of your rubbish - only small ones inside of 1 cupboard - not enough if you staying longer then few days.

  A very lovely and comfortable property.

  We were left milk, tea and welsh cakes on our arrival which was very welcome. The cottage was dog friendly which our 2 dogs were quite happy in. The only issue with the property is that the garden is shared by the owners which they very kindly said we could use but it isn't secure so if you took your eyes off the dogs for a minute they could escape into the wooded areas so always kept a lead on them. The property says it is situated in the bustling village of Crosshands but you need to use your car to get to the village especially if weather not good. Overall a very nice property with everything you need in it. Owners very nice and not intrusive.
