Such a warm, cosy & well equipped cottage. It had everything in the kitchen for cooking christmas dinner. We had such a lovely time staying there. Right slap bang in the centre. We visited Brecon & Cardiff from where we was staying. The only downside is the parking as you have to unload then pay for parking up the road. But it was a fabulous cottage and would stay there again!

It was very nice and cosy. Just a few cobwebs in bathroom on skylight plus light by outside door doesn't work and it's extremely dark at night when coming back had to use my flashlight on phone. But other than that it was lovely
