Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers frequently mention the cottage being 'spotlessly clean' and 'immaculate', indicating a very high standard of cleanliness that guests appreciate.
The location is celebrated for its quietness, excellent sea views, and proximity to the beach and local pub. Some guests found the narrow lane stressful, but the overall sentiment about the location is overwhelmingly positive.
The cottage is repeatedly described as 'cosy', 'comfortable', and 'well-equipped', suggesting a high level of comfort. A few comments about the size and steep stairs suggest slight deductions for comfort for some guests.
Facilities are generally praised, with mentions of a well-equipped property, good wifi, and a secure garage for bikes. The outdoor play area is a highlight, though some guests suggest the facilities are more weather-dependent.
Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches like the homemade Bara Brith and welcome pack. While these gifts are warmly received, it's important to note that such personal touches, though common, are not guaranteed for every stay.

The views from the cottage over the bay are excellent and the beach is in walking distance if you feel like a walk but the hills are very steep coming back.The addition of the outside play area and a selection of games inside kept our Grandson amused for hours. Thank you to John and Olwen for the use of their lovely cottage and the welcome homemade bara brith was gorgeous. We look forward to visiting again.

The cottage was so cosy and had everything you could need. The view was amazing! The play area was a god send for entertaining our 6 year old. Unfortunately we didn't have the best weather but there's so much nearby thats just a short drive to. Our hosts Olwen and John left a lovely welcome pack on arrival and were there if were needed anything. Fantastic! You will not be disappointed here!
