Most guests found the property very clean and well-presented, with only occasional minor issues such as some dirty pans or cobwebs. The majority of reviews highlight cleanliness as a positive aspect.

The accommodation was spacious, warm and added bonus of cinema room and games room. Great if you have pets as garden enclosed. Lovely hot tub and TVs in every room.To visit places are quite a long trip away. I would recommend Welshpool Charlie’s garden centre. The added extras were a lovely touch, bottle of Prosecco, shortbread, fruit cake and the eggs were massive. I brought some on leaving from the owners.My only gripe was the cleanliness of the home, the pans for cooking had fat still in them and some other pans and crockery were dirty. The oven could do with a good scrub and the hob.My twin bedroom had lots of cobwebs especially under the dressing table We also experienced wasps in the home every day, but the windows were not open. They were large wasps and my daughter got stung from one on the kitchen floor.I would recommend the home, if you just want to relax. If you want to sight see you will need travel.

Very friendly owner, came to see if everything was ok. Beautiful home, nearest shops 20mins drive. Personally because of my walking problems could not get around too well outside the house but it didn't spoil my holiday. Lovely holiday welcome pack, bought some eggs to take home. Enjoyed the games room had some family fun playing snooker and darts.

This place is an absolute hidden gem! We thoroughly enjoyed every single second of our stay. The tranquil, peaceful surroundings were a dream, but the real showstopper was the games room—we spent hours playing on the full-sized snooker table and hitting the dart boards. Our only complaint? The stay simply wasn't long enough! We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be back.
