"Park House is lovely olde worldly cottage full of character."
Everything that we could possibly need was supplied and thank you for the welcome pack and the doggy extras. The lounge was so full of character and the coolest room in the hottest week of the year! The grounds were great to let our four dogs out without supervision although our 'houdini' did manage at one point to disappear but soon came back. Adrian was around if needed but never intrusive. We would certainly recommend if you want a relaxing home from home holiday in a very interesting area and hopefully one day we will return.

"Comfortable and well-equipped cottage."
Perfectly positioned for local attractions - Llandrindod Wells, Rhayader, Gilfach Nature Reserve and the Elan Valley. Beautiful scenery. Ideal for the dogs, with excellent walking in the area. The welcome pack of wine, cakes and dog treats was a lovely touch. Really enjoyed our holiday here and would definitely return. Thank you.

"We had the most wonderful stay at this charming cottage over the Easter weekend."
From the moment we arrived, it was clear that so much care and attention to detail had gone into making this place feel like a home away from home. The cottage was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we could possibly need.
What really made our stay extra special were the little touches like a welcome basket with treats. Adrian clearly went above and beyond to create a warm and inviting atmosphere, and we truly appreciated it.
The peaceful setting was perfect for a relaxing break, and we left feeling refreshed and grateful. We wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend this lovely spot to others. Thank you Adrian for a magical stay!

"This is our second visit to the Pink House (park house) there are four of us and four dogs, its like our home from home, cosy, comfortable and fantastic for the dogs with plenty of space to run about outside."
The owners are lovely and nothing is ever too much trouble for them, even when we requested to stay on a little longer and our consistent requests for more wood, its done quickly and with a smile!!
I cannot recommend this place enough, if you are looking to just get away and feel as comfortable as being at home then look no further, beautiful home with fantastic surroundings and beautiful places to visit.
We will be booking again for the summer.
Thank you.!!

"We had a leak in kitchen for 5 days,washing machine never worked, heating only worked in the morning."
After debate with partner we cut are hols short and came home.we had a good time but things like that spoilt it.
After investigation there was no leak in the kitchen just you allowing water to go down the back of the sink. I did investigate the leak while you were there and found that there was no leak from any of the pipes. The washing machine was working it was left on pause. The heating is on a set timer and thermostat, you could have requested the heating to be adjusted.

"Beautiful old house full of character and ancient features."
Loved the open fireplace! And there are plenty of logs. We were very happy with 3 bathrooms and 3 toilets. We were a party of 2 couples and a single friend but we had suffient privacy. The sofa’s are very comfortable. We had a few little technical problems but Adrian was always nearby to help us, responded very quickly.

One of the biggest pluses was that they accepted 4 dogs, which you rarely come across in most holiday cottages. Highly recommended and i would definitely return should I come back to this beautiful part of Wales.

"Arrived at property on 29th December."
Cottage was very cold and unwelcoming. Heating could only be controlled by owner between specific hours. Second bathroom shower was filthy. No external window in lounge. No storage cupboards in kitchen for provisions etc. We contacted Sykes and the cottage owner both of whom were very unhelpful. We therefore decided not to stay at the cottage and returned home the same day.

"My husband and i spent a wonderful few days in this lovely cottage."
So cosy and welcoming. It had everything you could want. The owner Adrian was very friendly and helpful. We absolutely loved the open fire. My only very slight little negative was the shower in the bathroom off of the double room. Being tall I knocked my head on the low beam. But this was really such a small thing, and easily rectified by me using the beautiful shower in the bathroom off of the twin room. It certainly wouldn't stop us going back! We loved it.

"Absolutely fantastic!"
Everything about Park House is about going the extra mile for guests - from the treats left for humans and dogs to having ‘just in case’ spare batteries in the drawers, a great selection of puzzles and games and information on local walks - it was great! We felt very welcome bringing children and dogs and lovely to see the care that can be taken of dogs if we had stayed a bit longer and needed a day out without them. Thanks very much Adrian - we will definitely be recommending this place :)
Thank for your kind feedback, hope to see you all again.

We left a detailed account last October, suffice to say that the house is still just as lovely. It's a very welcoming place, with loads of space, excellent facilities, comfortable furniture, and a very helpful owner.
This October is colder than last year, and we used the log fire several times - a real pleasure.

"Had a wonderful relaxing week in this lovely house."
It’s very well equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Lots of thought gone in to the small details such as comprehensive range of leaflets, guides, books about places to visit locally, excellent information folder with practical details to help with your stay, picnic blankets, toys, games, puzzles. We especially valued the dog focussed touches like the detailed walks suitable for dogs, the basket with towels, bowls, toys even poo bags. The owners are clearly very dog friendly and have done a lot to ensure the needs of your four legged companions are catered for.
The house is clean, well furnished and set in the most fabulous location with easy access to so many places of interest to visit. The red kite feeding station was a particular highlight for us.
We were greeted with a lovely welcome pack which was very much appreciated and even included dog treats!
Thank you for a lovely stay.

"The cottage is surprisingly large, quiet, extremely well furnished and equipped."
You get a lovely and unexpected welcome pack so great to make an initial drink and with some traditional Welsh goodies was great ahead of getting some of our weeks provisions in (and some dog treats as well). As we have only a small car and 4 Dogs so space in the car is limited. It has a welcoming atmosphere and come the evening we lit the Log fire to make it really cosy. It has comfortable beds, a switchable shower between pole mounted and rainfall which was ensuite with the main bedroom where we stayed. It has all appliances you might need including a Dishwasher, there is lots of table and kitchen ware. It has many doors so its easily possible to keep the dogs where you need them to be. so is dog friendly. The cottage is quite quirky, in its layout. There is a downstairs Bathroom off the Kitchen. There's a generous parking area outside we had so much space having only the one little car. Adrian was really helpful and we will be back next year.

"An absolute gem of a cottage which has everything you need and more."
The property is situated in the middle of Wales with very easy access to the most important places to visit. Adrian and Cristina are very welcoming and will ensure your stay is very comfortable. Being winter already, Adrian changed the central heating timings twice to accommodate our needs. Cristina gave our dog a very nice grooming which made him look a lot younger than he actually is. All in all, a very pleasant stay and experience. We will return to this cottage in the summer. Well Done to Cristina and Adrian. Thank you.

"What a wonderful cottage!"
We chose Park House primarily for its location, it's perfectly placed for visiting various relatives who live in the area. We could not have done better.
The house is quiet, spacious, extremely well furnished and equipped. It has a welcoming, cosy atmosphere. Comfortable beds, brilliant showers, good appliances, loads of table and kitchen ware. It's dog-friendly but also very human-friendly!
The house is also engagingly quirky, you don't know what is behind a door until you open it. We only found the downstairs bathroom some time after arrival, when we explored what simply looked like the door to a store cupboard...
There's parking space for a fleet of cars outside. Even in late autumn the garden was a real sun trap, ideal for sitting with the relatives for tea and bara brith.
Adrian the owner was discreet but very helpful when we needed him - he changed the heating timer for us (the controls are not in the cottage).
We have high expectations now for Sykes bookings, but this one definitely exceeded our hopes. We are planning to return next year.

It's a lovely house in a beautiful area, perfect for the four of us (2 couples) and 3 dogs. Garden was huge and secure and the dogs were able to run around without worry, we felt very relaxed. The owners were very helpful but not obtrusive and clearly dog lovers. The house was spotless, smelt fresh and clean and had everything we needed. Walks nearby were ample and the picturesque Elan Valley and dams were a short drive away. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this wonderful place.
