Fantastic remote cottage set in beautiful surroundings. The hosts were great , coming out their way to see if everything is ok and if we needed anything . We stayed over Christmas and the place was beautifully decorated The welcome pack when we arrived was lovely and the homemade Welsh cakes were too die for . If it’s a remote break you want then this is the place for you

I booked this place as the house and particularly the kitchen lay out all look like my dream home down to the cooker! Its an absolutely stunning house right on a farm where you can hear the animals. We stayed for a short weekend but could happily stay for much longer. Wed definitely come again with more people (stayed as a couple when this place fits 6!) thank you for housing us :)
