Dawn was a great host and the welcome basket was a nice touch. The property was warm,cosy and very welcoming. It was very clean and had more than enough of everything we needed. The views are lovely. We would happily return.

The owner went above and beyond, beautifully decorating the barn for the festive season and leaving some thoughtful treats that made our family feel truly welcome. It really was a home away from home and helped make our time in South Wales very special. The location is excellent, surrounded by stunning countryside with charming small towns nearby, lovely pubs, and several supermarkets all within a short 10-minute drive. The barn itself is incredibly comfortable, with excellent underfloor heating that was perfect for chilly winter days. The spacious kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need, and the cosy living room is well stocked with family games, making it ideal for relaxing together. Parking is plentiful, and there are also some lovely outdoor areas to enjoy when the weather is warmer. We loved our stay here and wouldnât hesitate to return. We very much hope to come back again in the near future.

The owners are very friendly and helpful if you need anything. We have stayed there twice now when visiting family in the area and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a break in this part of Wales.
