  Very spacious and well equipped cottage.

  We had a really lovely stay and were so grateful for the weather, a chance to explore the beautiful surroundings and countryside and come back to comfort and peace. Wendy and crew and their lovely dogs were quietly around if we needed them . My comments are minor We recommend A. fitting retractable blackout blinds to the bedroom roof velux windows B. Providing garden recliners eg https://www.therange.co.uk/outdoor-living/garden-furniture/garden-chairs/set-of-2-heavy-duty-textoline-zero-gravity-chairs/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwuO6WBhDLARIsAIdeyDLXhg81DD_EIxMzvQaUS8Dgf0GTehG0yqH-PnyKI_18Yyn_-o7hW-waAvjyEALw_wcB#5258528 C. Sharpen the kitchen knives! D. Sand down and resrain/paint the garden furniture Here is a little suggestion - the local area is so beautiful. Ask guests to send you photos of any beautiful scenes and then turn these in to large framed picture photos to hang throughout the cottage rather than the odd and very mixed assortment of pictures you currently have. One final comment - the floor vinyl in the kitchen and utility is significantly ripped in several places, and is loose.

  This is the 2nd time we have stayed and we have booked again next year.

  Always welcoming, plenty of space exactly as pictures show. Loads of room for parking outside the property leading up from a narrow gravel track from the A40 (no sign for it so use the Powys border one as a marker) The Barn was cosy and lovely and warm, the heating being on most of the time. The new mattresses were a medium to soft which suited us. The only thing they could do with is a clock in the livingroom and curtains in the twin bedroom as the sensor light from the owners property lights up the bedroom during the night from the wildlife passing by. There is a small strip of grass at the back approached by steps, our dog found them quite steep being elderly so I took her out the front most of the time. Views of sheep and horses from the patio doors in the livingroom give a lovely site on a wet day and the mountains through the trees at the front. We are looking forward to going again next year. Abergavenny about 4miles has everything plus free parking on Byfield Lane carpark except, Tuesday Market day.

  This barn desperately needs new beds sad to say.

  Numerous people have mentioned it over the last few years but still no change. The double is very soft with no support and the singles you can feel the springs on them and are extremely soft with a collapsing feel . I had backache all week normally no trouble with it. The owners are welcoming, but no welcome pack as in other places we've been, just a small amount of tea coffee and sugar. There's plenty of room to park, but the entrance needs a sign on the track. I know the area well, but we still shot past it, as its opposite the powys sign from Aber, or the yellow 40 sign from Crick. It is the same as the pictures open plan loads of room. They have 4 welcoming dogs and several cats. The back strip of grass on the secured patio is steep to get to and was not big enough for my 2 cavs to have a gallop. I know there was no dish washer, but there was no washing up liquid provided, a good job I took some with me, yet washing powder was provided for the washing machine.

  Excellent communication with the owners, clear instructions etc.

  Property in a good location, quiet countryside but near enough to main roads, shops restaurants etc. The Barn is larger than the pictures show and we were pleased to have the extra downstairs toilet and utility room. The well fenced garden gave us peace of mind whilst our little Westie was in it. Although it was not the weather to sit out we imagine it would be lovely in summer. The addition of a dishwasher and a larger dining table would make the property even better. We are used to very firm mattresses and pillows so it was disappointing to find the beds very soft-but don't take this as a problem as its surely down to one's preferences. Parking is right outside the front terrace. Owners discrete but available if needed. We enjoyed a lovely break at this property and would most certainly book again.

  The property was spacious, clean and in a beautiful setting.

  It is in an a good situation for visiting the Brecons. From the picture we anticipated a larger garden area but the garden was a narrow strip behind the property. The front of the property is available for guests to sit out but the open space directly in front of the property is for cars, and horse vans so not ideal. This was disappointing, as we had a child and two dogs with us. The outdoor chairs and table need varnishing or replacing . We didn’t use them as they looked so worn and dingy . This wasn’t great considering the lovely views we had around us. Guests need to follow the Sykes directions exactly as the Sat nav won’t help. The entrance is concealed on a busy road.
