A wonderful modern cottage refurb with that homely touch. Didn't want for anything and the welcome pack was a lovely touch - the Welsh cakes didn't even last the first night.The enclosed and secure garden was great so even our small dog Bertie couldn't escape. A very pleasurable few days.

One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Spotlessly clean and furnished to a very high standard so understandably dogs are not allowed upstairs. Fabulous hosts who are friendly and helpful without being obtrusive. Rural location surrounded by fields with a secluded suntrap garden. What's not to love? 100% recommend.
