What our customers say about their holidays

  The cottage was lovely, clean, and comfortable, and we enjoyed our stay.

  The landlady was very considerate and helpful, and we especially appreciated the scones she left for us when we arrived. The setting was lovely--the cottage was adjacent to a large field, and we were thrilled to find cows coming straight up to our windows the second day after we arrived. The only issue we had was the lack of sound-proofing between our floor and the one above (the loft apartment). We could almost hear everything--the upstairs neighbors waking up, talking, walking, and my kids in the bedroom right below theirs could even hear them snoring at night! Fortunately my husband and I had the bedroom on the other side of the cottage which does not have a second floor, so our sleep was not disturbed. Finally, the website indicated that there is a washer, but there is none in the cottage although we could use the owners' in their kitchen for a 5 pound fee. This should have been made explicit on the website. While the landlady was accommodating, It is less convenient for us to have to work around the owner's schedule to do laundry.

  Lovely hosts with a wealth of information on the local area and a really nice property with a great deal in its favour, however, the lack of attention to detail stopped it from achieving a 5 star rating, e.

  G. no non slip bath mat for a bath/shower combination, two broken chairs, mould around the shower partition, if you cannot perch on high bar stool chairs at the breakfast bar a small occasional table has to used for meals, the sitting out area is overgrown with weeds with no chairs which would need to be taken down a flight of stairs from the house to be used. Fully accept the house is located within a business area, however, loading/unloading of vehicles starts around 7am in the car park area which is overlooked by the bedroom window and farm machinery working in adjacent field until 12.30 am was not conducive to a good nights sleep. The property promotes the fact that a farm shop is on the premises which is obviously a draw for prospective customers so a small discount within the shop when used by the ‘guests’ would be a nice gesture. Each small issue above would not deter a return visit, but taken together, they did take the lustre off which would otherwise have been a 5 star rating

  Mel and Sandra are friendly and helpful hosts.

  Molly the dog loves to play given half a chance and is a delight; wish it had been summer when we could have indulged her more. Stargazer's Field House is a really comfortable apartment with plenty of space throughout and equipped with most things you could need. It is in a super handy location for Hay for shopping and within easy driving access to the hills for walking. We very much appreciated the cake which awaited us as we did the fact that there were Christmas decorations, including tree, for the festive period - not to mention the wood burning stove which added to the atmosphere. The bed in the main bedroom was really comfortable which, combined with the tranquillity of the area, meant we enjoyed seven excellent nights' sleep. There was no-one upstairs whilst we were there which I had been a little apprehensive about so we were truly undisturbed. We all enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend.

  We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Stargazer’s Field House.

  The cottage is beautifully presented and well equipped. It is in an ideal position for walking or touring, rural but not isolated. Beautiful countryside to explore. We were made very welcome and appreciated the fresh flowers, Tea and Welsh cakes left for us. There is a lovely patio area which can be also be accessed from the double bedroom, our morning cuppa was enjoyed there as well as some evening meals. Besides the patio we were given access to part of the owners own extensive garden, our 4 year old grandson was in seventh heaven being able to use his bike freely in the area and enjoyed enormously his cycle races with the lovely Molly (the dog) who’s company we also enjoyed. A folder with lots of walks and tour information was provided, besides the usual activity pamphlet’s. We would definitely recommend this property and the wonderful countryside surrounding it.

  We are a couple and stayed in The Barn in April 2018.

  The directions were clear and the location was peaceful and tucked away. The Barn is up a set of stairs and opens up into an open plan living room and kitchen, a home away from home. Comfy sofas, tv and DVD player and a small woodburner are in the living room and the kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed, including strong wifi. The double bedroom had a beautiful view overlooking the fields and plenty of storage, The bathroom is small but works well with an over the bath shower. The whole property is filled with natural daylight. The Barn is about a 10-15 min drive from Whitchurch and we found the location easy to use as a base to visit nearby villages and larger towns. Overall we had a wonderful 5 days, we felt like we lived there rather than on holiday and would recommend The Barn to anyone wanting a low maintenance self catering holiday.
