  The property is in a very nice secluded area, with great views and you aren't overlooked; great location to explore the area.

  The inside of the property is very spacious, some of the furnishings such as the beds are a bit dated and hard. The fridge freezer is quite small, we struggled to get 4 days worth of food and drink in the fridge; there was no shelf on the inside of the fridge door to stand up any open liquids such as milk/wine etc. Be prepared to take EVERYTHING you need, there was no welcome basket/essentials such as tea, coffee, sugar; not even salt or pepper. The hot tub outside is extremely muddy with bo extra paving around it, so take suitable shoes to wear. Getting the lid on and off without slipping in the mud was a challenge. The hot tub itself was warm but the jets didn't really work which was disappointing. Due to how muddy it was outside take extra towels for any four legged friends you take with you. The hallways/kitchen/diner is all hard/tiled flooring which will get muddy, we kept the living room and bedroom doors shut at all times to prevent the dogs running on to carpets and soft furnishings. Take extra tea towels as the property only provides one for the duration of the stay and we had to purchase our own hand soap as well as there wasn't any. We were unable to clean down the floors as there were no cleaning products to do so.

  Such a beautiful location, we loved our stay and will have no problem returning here, it was wonderful!

  Large and spacious holiday home, we found the property to be in good repair and clean. Beds super comfortable, safe garden for the dogs to be in. The views were magnificent, parking fantastic too, I had a sense of privacy here, even though there’s a farm near the location, you were not overlooked at all, the hot tub was great. I had to contact the owner around getting the cooker to work, as no instructions on how to use it. They were very helpful, the cooker was great, a good selection of pots, pans etc. The hot water was so hot! This could be turned down a degree or two. Dishwasher, washing machine all worked well, clothes horse in the ‘games’ room. My only criticisms- no walking guides, and no pamphlets on the local area or places to visit so I’ve left some in the welcome folder from days out I’d had. Finishing touches, some items I expected to see were not there, no hairdryer, no tea pot, no salt, pepper or extra cleaning products, one tea towel, one bin bag. So I’d pack some kitchen bits. No towel rail in the bathroom. I think I also have to note, we stayed in the hottest week. Impossible to open the windows as the flies came in, so a fan or two might be a nice touch, but overall we loved our stay. Thank you

  Lovely rural and quiet location with amazing views.

  Locals were very friendly. The nearby Elan valley was great to visit with amazing Dams in a short drive. Very surprised how quiet it was, especially being half term. Bungalow was very spacious and clean. Games room was a bonus the kids, especially visiting Wales in Autumn. Bungalow had everything we needed but at the same time had a simplicity that I like. Shower was fab, very powerful and bonus of a bath which my daughter loves. Managed to get in the hot tub a couple of times between storms! Got a bit muddy around the hot tub which made it quite messy and slippery, especially when trying to remove and replace the cover. Just a minor niggle. Smart tv so able to watch Netflix on those cold rainy eves. Plenty of spacious parking by the door. Great for packing and unpacking car in harsh weather. My little dog loved watching the sheep. Few Red Kites flying over, even a couple of Jets. We didn’t visit for the walks but a perfect location if this is what you want to do. Couldn’t fault the place and the price was good. Hopefully they won’t suddenly hike the prices up. If not I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to friends.

  The accommodation was a good size, lovely area in general and close to amenities when needed.

  Nice sized holiday site neither too crowded or too remote like some, the lodge was clean and tidy. There were great facilities, shower and water pressure was good, bed was comfortable upstairs. The outdoor area was great and there’s plenty of room, the site is maintained very well and clean/tidy, great fresh eggs to purchase on site. We didn’t use the fire pit but lovely addition for families! My only negative feedback’s would be some of the sheep around the cabin looked in a sorry state which was hard to watch, the hot tub was set a but too high for such warm days so we couldn’t spend long in there and we struggled to find the bins after the second cattle grid behind a fence as written on the sheet on our way out early on the last morning, we ended up taking it with us. Would definitely return, great communication from Claire and amazing area to get some Astro photography due to the lack of light pollution in the evening.

  Loved our 2 week break at this property.

  It is in a wonderful setting, total peace and quiet. The property was spotlessly clean. The furniture is a bit tired and most of the recliner mechanics dont work. Some of the crockery needs replacing due to chips and scratches. The hot tub was a welcome addition even though again it could do with a bit of attention, no doubt these things are due to the amount of use they get and not everyone being as respectful as they should be. It would have been useful to have some information regarding local shops and supermarkets, or an option to order a basic starter pack of bread, milk, eggs due to the remoteness of the property and the late check in time, especially in the winter months when it gets very dark very quickly. It would also have helped to know what day the refuse was collected especially for a two week stay as the bin isn't very big. That being said it didn't stop us having a lovely time.
