Couldn't fault anything with this place.. The setting is beautiful especially if you want to be away from mobile phones as there is no signal at all! It's great.
From the patio you could birdwatch and we saw loads of birds and the birdsong was awesome. Noisiest sheep I'd ever heard though. It's in a quiet village surrounded by mountains with spacious garden. There was everything you could possibly need, heaps of towels and even a caffetiere. The welcome pack was a lovely touch with some wine and local produce and home made bara brith, even milk and spread in the fridge and oil. There were clear instructions for everything you might need.
The furniture is comfy and it has everything, possibly more, than one's home. There is plenty of space inside too. There are books and games and a stay at home day is just as good as driving miles. It is so easy to get everywhere, whether it be mountains, towns, lakes or railways and the seaside is only about an hour away. There are plenty of walks including one starting in the village right outside.
I always comment on disabled access as this is important to me. I am mobility impaired but can use my legs indoors with the aid of a stick and help and managed the steps into the property. This is definately NOT wheelchair friendly though due to steps inside and outside the property, some of which are quite tall. However, if you have someone to help you and can walk a little you will probably manage as I did. There is a 'ground' floor bathroom and bedroom up a couple of steps but this bedroom is quite small with a high bed. However, there is a pull out double bed in the 'snug' lounge which is very comfortable. There is also a futon on the mezzanine. The main bedroom is enormous! It has it's own wash station and the views from the windows are fabulous, I enjoyed sitting on the basket chairs in the windows just looking out on the farm and mountains. At night you can see the stars through the skylights, weather permitting.
The couple who own it are really lovely and their family live opposite if you need to contact them.
Although it is family friendly beware or your kids might get withdrawal symptoms from lack of phone use, although the WiFi is excellent. The TV is ok but limited channels. It does have Netflix and you will need to use your own account.
We loved it so much it broke our hearts to leave. We are determined to go back.
