An outstanding cottage for a dog owner.Perfect enclosed front & back gardens with access to a beautiful meadow on the owners' land , ideal for an early dog walk before starting the day.The cottage was well equipped & comfortable with a lovely welcome pack ( which included free rage eggs from the site) & a dog fleece for use if necessary.The family onsite were incredibly welcoming & friendly.Lots to do within the area; NT property LLanerchaeron is lovely and a good local walk are the choice of routes at Dolaucothi (NT membership not needed).If you're that way inclined a visit to Cae Hir Garden is a must.The week we were there , the temperatures were pretty low so I can happily confirm that the central heating is fast & efficient!Thoroughly recommended.

Excellent cottage, our dog loved the dog walking meadow and playing with owners dogs. Relaxing and peaceful accommodation. Village has no facilities- no shop or pub. Nearest pub for food was approx 10 minute drive away, can highly recommend the gwarcefel arms - generous portion size and very reasonable prices
