Guests say
Derwen Haidd is a beautiful and peaceful cottage, ideal for adult getaways and those seeking tranquillity. It offers a hot tub, games room, and lovely views, though it is situated a fair distance from local amenities.
The property is generally clean and tidy, but there are reports of dirty dishes and a musty hot tub cover. An issue with a leaking bathroom and a dishwasher not draining properly also affected cleanliness.
The cottage is appreciated for its peacefulness, but its remote location is noted as inconvenient due to the lack of local shops and pubs, requiring a drive for provisions and activities.
The property is described as beautiful and well-equipped, providing a comfortable stay. However, limited garden space for pets and a non-functional oven side slightly impacted the comfort level.
Facilities like the hot tub and games room are highlights, but maintenance issues with the dishwasher, oven, and a leaky bathroom need addressing. Late-night doorbell ringing was also mentioned as a disturbance.
No mention of welcome gifts or additional thoughtful touches was made in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.
