I went for a little weekend away with some friends. The cottage is gorgeous and it was super clean. We had everything we needed and were close to a little high street and we really enjoyed looking around. Lovely wool and crafts shop. My only complaint would be there was no salt or pepper provided but it's such a minor issue compared to how nice and well kept the place is in general. The kitchen has everything you could need for cooking otherwise. Gwen was really friendly and gave us good information for where to go for food or drinks in the area.

We had an amazing week at Rhiwgoch. We had a wonderful welcome from Gwen and the cottage was spotlessly clean, very well equipped, incredibly comfortable and had everything you could possibly need. The cottage had fabulous views and in a really great location for exploring the local area. We cant wait to go back to Rhiwgoch very soon.

An excellent property with welcoming and helpful owners. High quality furnishings and every item of kitchen equipment you could wish for! As the property is quite a way up a hill and well away from the main road you do get a lot of weather and can't walk to the shops easily, but if you are prepared for that then I would highly recommend!
