  • Kay

    It was very cosy and lovely and warm on an evening after a hard days walking in the countryside. We had a brilliant time, so peaceful and stunning countryside. Thank you.

    The cottage is surrounded by fields, there is ample parking and it's incredibly easy to find. There is a local and shop and pubs within easy reach. The bird in the hand was particularly good and has a courtesy bus should you want to make an evening of it! Inside the cottage was beautiful. A large farmhouse kitchen with ample crockery and utensils. Dawn had left a welcome hamper which was a nice treat. The lounge was also spacious with plenty of sofa space, a mock word burner, overhead beams, loads of windows front and back letting in loads of light. There was a attic twin bedroom and two downstairs bedrooms, one double the other king-size. Three bathrooms, one with a bath. There is one step down to the bedrooms for those with mobility issues to be mindful of. I highly recommend this place.

    Dawn was the perfect hostess and made us feel very welcome and the welcome basket was a lovely surprise after a long drive. The cottage itself is clean, spacious, comfortable and has everything we could ask for. Even when the weather turned particularly stormy forcing us to stay in, there was plenty to keep us busy and entertained. The location is another big bonus, quiet and immersed in nature but easy to reach, close to the M4 and from there a quick drive to plenty of interesting places. We'd recommend the Botanical Gardens of Wales, Penllergaer Forest Valley , Worms Head (Rhossili) on the Gower, and the Royal Mint as places worth a visit. For food, a standout was Pen Y Waun Farmshop, literally 2 minutes up the road: Gavin's dedication came across and both the meat and the jam were superb. We had a wonderful time and are already looking forward to an opportunity to come back to this gem of a cottage.
