"This was our second visit to the cottage and it did not let us down."
A beautiful location, totally peaceful, with a fantastic view. The accommodation is fairly simple but very clean and comfortable. It is perfect for chilling out for a few days and is within easy reach of several towns and villages if you fancy a trip out.

"Lovely comfortable cottage, check in and out worked very well, beautiful quiet location."
Nice gesture from the owners to provide a welcome pack with biscuits, coffee and prosecco. Only slight gripes were the rust inside the microwave and the stone floor, which was disintegrating in places. Definitely a cottage which requires slippers!
Many thanks for your feedback. We hope you enjoyed your stay
Thank you for mentioning the microwave in your feedback, the microwave has now been replaced.
The flagstones in the property are original, very unique and part of the properties history. Thank you for the advice for future guests. Property Owner

"Very poor lighting."
Decor very spartan especially in kitchen/lounge. No pictures on the wall. Just bare walls. No salt and pepper, no kitchen roll. Very basic.
Lovely location, charming hosts, good size bedroom and bathroom.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. The bathroom light which you reported was not working was fixed within 24hrs. We do provide a welcome pack with tea, coffee, biscuits etc. Salt and Pepper is available in one draws in the kitchen. Once again we do thank you for taking time to leave your feedback.

"Clean and comfortable accommodation in a quiet location."
Easy to get about whether you want to visit towns or just go walking in the beautiful surrounding area. Large American style fridge/freezer and private seating area at the front of the property. Private parking area, easy to park.
Minor niggle was the broken sash cord to the living/kitchen window which wouldn't open.

We loved the stone floors in both rooms and the views over the parkland. Beautiful walks from the door ( accompanied by both calves and lambs) back to a very comfortable base with very up-to-date equipment in Kitchen and wet room.
We enjoyed a wonderful break and hope to return.

The best thing really was the setting, looking out over fields of sheep and lambs, with woodland in the background. It was just so peaceful, there was only the occasional car in the distance, birds were singing, it was idyllic and just what we needed.

"As is usual with these sites, the description is a bit OTT (and there was no barbeque) but the cottage was delightful, well furnished and very comfortable."
There is a huge fridge and freezer and new appliances in the kitchen area. It is a shame that covid meant that any literature/maps of the area had been put away but wifi was excellent so we could look up what we didn't have with us. The patio was a good place to sit and read or just look at the beautifully landscaped grounds, and it was warm enough to eat outside in the evenings.
The eggs given us by the owners (thank you. Three out of four were double yolkers!) provided an extra evening meal, when a violent thunderstorm prevented us from getting to Bishop's Castle for our dinner.
There was a place to store our bikes.

National cycle route within a mile and just over border from Powys. As described plenty of places to visit around the area. Or spend time on terrace with good book etc.
