Guests say
Guests have consistently praised Oak View for its peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, and excellent location. The property offers a sense of seclusion while being conveniently close to Newtown. The facilities, including a hot tub, are highly regarded, and the hosts, David and Nerys, are commended for their friendliness. The cottage is described as clean, perfect for local walks, and a great choice for special occasions or a relaxing retreat.
There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score.
The location is frequently highlighted for its tranquility and beautiful views, offering a sense of being 'in the middle of nowhere' while still being accessible from Newtown.
While guests found the property peaceful and the views amazing, there is insufficient detail on the indoor and outdoor furniture comfort to provide a score.
Facilities are described as 'topNotch', with special mentions of the hot tub and the property's suitability for walks. The absence of blinds is noted, but not as a negative, as it allows for unobstructed views.
There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate the level of thoughtfulness, so a score cannot be provided. However, the hosts are described as friendly and lovely, suggesting a thoughtful approach to hospitality.

We had a fabulous weekend here to celebrate a special occasion. Loved that you were not overlooked and felt in the middle of nowhere - yet only a few miles from Newtown. The owners apologised that the blinds in the living room were not in - who wants to block that amazing view anyway ! The facilities were topNotch . All I would add would be some comfier furniture if you wanted toSit outside.
