What our customers say about their holidays

  We had a problem with the central heating as all the radiators went cold at 7.

  30pm sent a text to the owner who came over after a few moments and she said its because the radiators were up to temperature as they had thermostatic valves. all the valves were set to 5 which is the highest they go the cottage was getting cold so it was not the valves, she had a look at the boiler which was not on despite it being on a timed programme and pressed a button to reset and the boiler restarted about 2 hours later we had to reset the boiler again ourselves and we had to keep doing this for the duration of the holiday sent the owner another text at 9.30am on Monday to say we have to keep resetting the boiler every 2 hours otherwise the radiators go off and the cottage goes cold, she came over again and said again its the thermostatic valves and that's how its set up despite the cottage being cold my mother who is 85 feels the cold could tell when the heating was going off and we had to keep an eye on the time to get ready to reset the boiler, there was a electric heater in the lounge so we had to put that on to get some heat in the lounge overall the cottage was nice and cosy just the heating was the problem

  Chronic damp in en-suite bedroom.

  Owners attempting to mask with diffuser. When one opens the wardrobe, it is overpowering. Very poor quality mattresses which belong at the tip. Twin beds are for children - not adults. Settee offered nil support when used. Heating system highly controlled with FIVE time settings which made tenants constantly have to override to achieve any warmth. Fourteen degrees at night? Why do owners think they can spend money on prettifying a property (lovely bathrooms) and then neglect the basics? Sykes property guidelines for potential owners specifically states there should be ‘ no hint of damp’ and comfortable mattresses. We had to leave after three nights as unhealthy and uncomfortable. It isn’t our job to carry out property inspections and we weren’t prepared to have confrontation with owners over matters that cannot be rectified. The owner denies the property has a damp problem - really? Heating needs to be around 18-22 continuously to deal with damp. £700 for a week in October ? We completed our trip to the Gower in a lovely modern warm caravan……

  The Old Dairy is a brilliant cottage to stay in, and by far the best we have ever experienced.

  Lovely rear secure garden for our Darcey (Cockapoo) to investigate. Ideally situated to visit Rhoselli, Port Enyon and Oxwich Bay, which are all pet friendly beaches. Caroline and Huw have put a lot of work into making guests feel very comfortable, not to mention the scrumptious welcome tray for us humans as well as a treat for the pooch. I won't say what was on the tray as it would spoil the experience for further guests, let them have a lovely surprise! We certainly slept extremely well, must be a combination of the Welsh air, Welsh water and the extremely comfortable bed! The facilities in the cottage are second to none and we would definitely recommend it. We will hopefully be going back in the near future. Suzanne, Ray & Darcy

  The cottage was very well presented and equipped with everything you could possibly need.

  The welcome pack including homemade cakes and a bone for our dog were most appreciated. As it was our 25th wedding anniversery, my husband requested whether flowers could be arranged for our arrival and the owners kindly did so. This I thought was exceptional service. We had a most enjoyable week with Rhossili and Oxwich Bays just a short drive away and daily walks on the stunning coastline, helped by the fact we had 6 days in late October without any rain......unheard of ! We plan to return.Thank you

  Having visited friends here last year, we couldn't wait to book it for ourselves.

  The garden was perfect for our small westie, and the cottage layout and furnishings were wonderful for the humans. A great and thoughtful touch having milk, cakes, bread and coffee/tea waiting for us. The hosts said hello once we'd arrived but left us to our own devices apart from that, which was just what we needed. Everything is so close. Rhossilli, Oxwich and Port Eynon are all within 5-10mins drive. A great base to get out and explore from, or stay home and enjoy the peace and quiet.
