Fabulous house for 10-12 guests. Self contained annex works well for family with young children whilst the four main ensuite rooms are luxurious. We tended to live in the large conservatory type space as this is such a lovely room with great views, although there are a couple of smaller lounges if any of the party want some quite time away from Read morethe crowd, or have a desire to watch tv. Snooker room was good fun, although table not the flattest so best treated with a sense of humour! Hide

An excellent space for a get together with family and friends. Plenty of areas to get together or relax apart. The house was furnished to a high standard and very comfortable. Amazing views of the Welsh hills. I highly recommend the white water rafting centre a mile down the road if you enjoy thrills of just breakfast if you'd rather watch.

From the moment we arrived we knew we were somewhere special. We relaxed after a 5 hour journey on the outdoor furniture and then unpacked. The owners greeted us with the most incredible traditional Welsh Bara Brith which was perfect. The location was also perfect with stunning views. The property had lots of character! The bedrooms were of a good Read moresize and well presented, and the beds were very comfortable too. It was great having a jacuzzi in a modern pod with bifold doors. Hide

The property had an abundance of utensils and crockery, it was spacious with areas to come together as a group and also smaller cosy rooms to sit quietly.
