    A real country retreat offering peace and quiet. Lots of dog walks nearby. Many birds to see on the bird feeder – we saw a woodpecker for the first time. Walking our dog late at night we also saw foxes and a deer. Bring a torch if you are venturing out at night. So peaceful at night that you can hear the animals and the wind in the trees – all great for a good night's sleep. A very well-equipped kitchen and a great TV in the conservatory offering FreeSat. Even in the depths of winter, the croft was very warm inside, so we turned down the heating a little. Very respectable WiFi given the location – 11 Mbps. Ignore the previous comments about low ceilings – I’m 5ft 8ins and never had an issue. Do visit the farm shop in the village which has some lovely local produce. On arrival ignore Google Maps, ignore your Sat Nav, and ignore the Sykes “What3Words” location. It's actually “flask.trading.risky”. The owners' directions were also spot on.

    We never felt threatened by the low ceilings and my husband is about average height. The big TV in the conservatory was great. I wasn't allowed to go upstairs because of the steps so I never saw that bedroom. Most of the 'white goods' looked to be brand new and the heating was relatively easy to work. The owners were only a telephone away if we had needed them.

    The stair was extremely dangerous, again poor head height. Upstairs toilet was tiny, and virtually unusable. Too far to walk to Nethybridge. Building does not pass building regulations, it is only suitable for two small people with dogs. Location was lovely, but access to the river was totally overgrown and impossible. Directions to property need to be improved. Area beautiful.
