Beautiful cottage set it a great location for beautiful walks.. The only issue is parking, we were lucky enough to be able to use a drive way for next door (with their permission) the lay-by that the cottage advises to use is on a very fast road. Saying that we would be very happy to rent the same property again.

Mrs Ashman

Sykes were brilliant at booking and keeping in touch until our holiday.. The week before they sent us a “things to do on your holiday “ email which was useful. The cottage was just as described. Very happy, will definitely use them again and would recommend them.

Great location lovely cottage so much to do

Dr Toop

We were not familiar with the area, and went looking for the telephone box that marked the lay by we were to look out for.. The phone box had been removed but fortunately we found a local who could help us identify the house. Bron Olau is well set up and quiet, and owner James made a special trip to fix up a blockage in the septic system which was much appreciated.

Kathryn was most helpful to speak to prior to the holiday.. The cottage is adorable, beautifully clean and has everything you need to stay in, relax, cook and dine. We were there during the snow at the end of February and it was just perfect. The garden is fantastic, the local woods are beautiful for walking and lots to see and do in the area. We cannot wait to return. Thank you.

Absolutely loved this cottage had a lovely stay, even though it was December we still enjoyed beautiful views.. The cottage was cosy clean and just beautiful. We would definitely look to going back here maybe in the summer time. As another review said the road is a bit scary but wouldn’t put us off. Thank you
