Just what we needed! That was a lovely week for us all...thanks to the property. Unfortunately, we could not have picked a worse week to visit this beautiful area...it rained, almost constantly...the wind and rain was really strong, making it really difficult to impossible to shoot the photo's that we visited this location for! You know what....ItRead more didn't matter to us one bit...we thoroughly enjoyed the complete rest and took full advantage of the peace and quiet, this wonderful Donkey cottage offered us. We had everything we could need to enjoy total relaxation, the property is superbly equipped with so much space available, both indoors and in the totally private and secure garden area. We had a great time exploring locally around Fairbourne from this lovely homely base...and certainly did not want to leave at the end of our stay. Already made our minds up to return to this property later this year. Hide

A very comfortable property. Close to the beach for the kids. The garden states its secure for your dogs, but the gate doesn't lock so this might be something the owners could improve upon. My husband found the area while walking the dogs to have lots of dog waste on the paths, and was told the villagers couldn't afford poopy bags so the dog wasRead morete could be picked up. So that was a little disappointing as I had to be careful using my disability scooter, as I didn't want anything on the wheels.

This is a great holiday home and a perfect base for touring the area. The garden is very secure for dogs, has a great hot tub and seating area on a quiet street with very close access to beach and shops. Lots of space, excellent value for money and the owner is very friendly and helpful if you have a problem. Would not hesitate to return again.
