Pros- beautiful lodge, very clean, spacious and comfortable. Great views from the balcony as it is in the top row. Very quiet during our stay, and enjoyed our swim on the first evening. Pool to ourself £11 per person, booking online is easy. Second evening not as pleasant as there were lots of young kids in the pool. I assume the adults book and pay making it look as if there aren't many people, but I think kids are free. However still nice to use the facility. There is a sauna and steam room too and extra payment allows you to use the jacuzzi if that is your thing. Great location for exploring. Fabulous area for watching Red Kites flying on the thermals. There is a decent shop and garage in the village and a lovely beach. We also enjoyed Sunday lunch in the village pub, though there is also the option to eat at the Club house restaurant on the site. ConsNo phone signal or 4g on the park which made it almost impossible to access our cottages.com e mails with the site directions and the owner was reluctant to give us the key lock code the evening before we travelled asking us to text on arrival which we couldn't do. We had to drive just out of Llanrhystyd to get a signal to text. It did not appear to go through. We did however eventually get 1 bar of signal eventually to phone. Great wi-fi once inside the chalet.It would have been nice too, to have had the beds all made for arrival after a long drive. We replaced batteries in both the TV remote and wall heater remote which were not working.
