We have been to many holiday cottages over the years and this has been the best equipped. The kitchen was fully equipped with tea, coffee, ice in the freezer, dishwasher tabs, washing up liquid, etc. Each of the showers had shower gel (never seen that before), plenty of towels, toilet rolls etc. The furniture was comfortable and the garden beautifuRead morel, despite the occasional invasion of sheep. Would highly recommend. Andy Hide

We had a really lovely time, the house was warm and cosy, ideal for our family needs! It is set in a beautiful part of Wales and is very well equipped. We were celebrating a special birthday with three generations of the family and there was something for everyone.

A beautiful and well appointed house with ample room for 8 occupants. Nice touches with books and childrens toys and there are enough plates and cutlery so that you dont need to put the dishwasher on every time you eat. Definitely recommended.
