Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage consistently receives high praise for its cleanliness, with numerous reviews mentioning how clean and well-kept the property is upon arrival.
The location is highly regarded for its tranquillity, beautiful views, and proximity to Rhayader, Elan Valley, and other attractions, making it an excellent base for exploration.
Comfort is generally well-received, with positive remarks about comfy beds and a homely atmosphere. However, some guests mentioned issues with heating and the quality of mattresses, which slightly impacts the score.
Facilities like the pool table and spacious kitchen are appreciated, but several reviews cite maintenance issues such as heating problems and the need for bathroom hooks, which suggests room for improvement.
Guests have noted thoughtful gestures like a welcome cake and milk, which add to the experience. However, as these gifts are not consistently mentioned, they may not be guaranteed for all stays.

Scott
It has absolutely everything catered for. We have an additional needs son who likes his own space so this is the perfect property for us with 3 different sitting areas. It is so quiet and away from hustle and bustle so is just perfect for us. We will be back next year. Thank you

Reported a gas smell, took three days to respond. Asked for help pre arrival for nearest electric charging point to get a response we are in the middle of the countryside and no guidance. For reference one 3.1 miles away and one 9 miles away. Furniture tired, grub and seating even has nails protruding out of the seat. Owner doesnât respond to messages when you need help. Had scary incident, dismissed again by owner, at 01:30 of someone watching our cars. We left properly early. Skyes and owner didnât help us at all.
