Without doubt one of the nicest cottages we have ever stayed at and we have stayed at quite a few over the years. The cottage was absolutely spotlessly clean including the two bathrooms, the two bedrooms, living area and kitchen. The kitchen especially all of the electrical appliances and cooking utensils looked and felt brand new the attention to detail was unbelievable. Nothing was any trouble the owner greeted us on arrival and give us a warm welcome, she provided a welcome pack which included wine, milk, biscuits, coffee, tea, and even a packet of local Welsh crisps in fact everything you would need. She texted after a few days later to see if everything was to our satisfaction which it was.We would definitely return to this cottage and the area our dogs loved it lots of places to visit the countryside views are amazing from the cottage one morning we watched red kites flying above us as we sat outside the cottage.We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone it's such a special and tranquil place for a holiday
