The cottage is a beautiful farmhouse in the most amazing setting! It was absolutely perfect for us as two families with a small child coming together. If you are looking for a brand new house with no dust in sight it's not for you. This is a working farm and an old property so that has to be taken into account. If you want somewhere to relax that is comfortable and feels like a real home in a beautiful setting, get it booked! The family who own the property are really helpful and happy to answer any questions. We will definitely go back.

Before we arrived we were told the farmhouse had to have extra time for cleaning.. On arrival noticed several areas in the farmhouse that obviously had not been cleaned at all and pointed out some of these to the people running the complex. In fact some areas had obviously not been cleaned for some time. We had problems in the en suite with the hot water to the basin. the setting for the farmhouse is lovely,and everything else met our needs. On reflection another shower would have been useful.

The owners were very friendly and helpful.. The property was a lovely rustic old farmhouse and the outside was in good repair, on a very beautiful farm with amazing views and walks around the area, the play area was great for the kids. On arrival the farmhouse was clean and had plenty of cutlery, dishes etc... However, unfortunately there was quite a few things wrong whilst we were on holiday... No hotwater in the ensuite at all, only one person could have hot water in the morning if someone had a shower in the main bathroom. Light wasn't working in kitchen, but was quickly fixed by the owners, on our last day the electric kept going off, the microwave had no numbers on to tell us how long to put it on for, the remote control had worn off the writing too, so no idea how to use the that. No instructions left to use any of the equipment in the property, such as washing machine, dryer, dishwasher etc... The hob only worked on the left hand side. We weren't able to use the hot tub very much due to the weather, which is not the owners fault, but perhaps for future use they could put a covering of some sort over the pergola so people could still enjoy the hot tub in the rain etc... Also the fairy lights over the hot tub on pergola didn't work, would have been a nice touch on the evenings if they had worked, when we were able to use it. Also the flies and wasps were quite an issue, I had to buy a fly swatter as it got so bad everytime we opened the door to let some air in the conservatory as there was no windows. But being on a farm this was expected.

Lovely big house fully equipped with your every need great facilities fabulous hot tub.. The whole family really enjoyed our weekend. We will be recommending this farm house to all our friends and family. Thanks for a great time.

The children were so happy with the play area, games room and hot tub that they never wanted to leave to go to the beach and when we did they were asking how long before they could return.. Really enjoyed the space and comfort and because the children were so happy it gave the adults plenty of time to relax. Lovely quiet pond at the entrance where we caught tench and roach ghost carp eluded us though but we will definately return to have another go.

Beautiful countryside, lovely accomodation, helpful owners.. Only small negatives was the slow internet signal and the farm track leading to the house was uneven and a bit hard on the cars, especially lower ones due to raised ridge which banged the exhausts.

The farmhouse was very spacious and well equipped a great venue for a group of friends to meet..

Hired the Farmhouse to celebrate my 40th birthday with my four siblings, their partners and children plus my three dogs.. Plenty of room for everyone. Great facilities. We didn't need anything extra. Had a fantastic weekend and would highly recommend to others. Beautiful surroundings with lovely walks. Would definitely go back.

We came to the Farmhouse for a family 50th birthday with kids and dogs.. The Farmhouse was warm and welcoming and instantly relaxing. The facilities for our group were exceptional, and we were able to enjoy preparing large shared meals with ease. Enough space across the accommodation allowed the young and old to have their peace when needed. The dogs loved to be by the log fire. The Games Room was an additional treat. The views from the Farmhouse are understated. Highly recommended.
Mrs Wood

Fabulous farmhouse away from it all.. Well equipped kitchen, towels & bedding. Plenty of space and superb dining room. Play area for children was excellent though the little slide needs some attention. Games room would have been useful in wet weather. Instructions to find the place and recycling could be improved. Fresh eggs and veg were not available. I never recommend as everyone has different requirements. It was a bit of a drive to sandy beaches but we knew that before we went. The nearest pub seems to have closed and become a guest house. ( Ty Lon? ) Pond was excellent for fishing. For those who want a rural retreat, off the beaten track, this place is ideal and very good value for money.

This is a lovely property for family or group get togethers.. The rooms have very comfortable beds and are easily configurable to accommodate different sizes of family unit; there is an excellent stock of linen, towels, crockery and glasses. The property would benefit from some larger serving bowls, baking sheets for pizza or baked potato cooking, a serviceable vegetable peeler and some Bar - B - Q implements. Such additions would greatly enhance the ease of family eating but did not significantly detract from our enjoyment of the property. The games room was well used by us and everyone from young to old enjoyed the facilities. Internet was slow and only suitable for e mails and did not work for half the holiday. Compensated to some extent for by a full Sky Service on a large TV, a DVD player and a good library of DVD's in the games room. When approaching, it may be worth advising guests that it is a long approach drive which increasingly becomes a farm track; need to persevere.

This accommodation is really fantastic.. The farmhouse is well-located, extremely spacious and was able to comfortably absorb a large group. The outside facilities are great for the kids, the games room was well used and the little playground is a lovely safe environment in which the kids can run free. Finally, the owners were kind and considerate - letting our children feed the farm animals was a lovely touch and made the holiday especially memorable for them. Would definitely recommend.

We had a fantastic time at this farmhouse.. House was huge (some low doors though!). Loads of room for 11 of us. Great location with some lovely walks on the doorstep. Would definitely recommend.
Mr Burnett
October 2017
Exceptional holiday in all aspects.. The farmhouse was wonderful (clean and well stocked) and the location was superb. The only slight complaint would be that the bed matresses were not to our preference, but thats nit picking given there is no way all tastes could be catered for. Would definitely return (all 11 of us) - we loved it.
Mr Harborne

The Farmhouse is in a lovely remote location, with plenty of room for the 12 of us, it never felt crowded. It was spotless when we arrived. There was plenty for the kids to do, with darts and pool in the games room, and football on the lawn.

We loved every part about this place. It was really quiet, very clean, views were great and the family were amazing.
Mrs Smith

The Farmhouse was of an extremely high standard, the resident family were on site and were very friendly and helpful. It was safe to allow the children to explore the grounds and interact with the animals, and a few fish were caught at the on-site pond. We would definitely recommend it and revisit.

comfortable, spacious farmhouse with every amenity from Sky TV to pool and darts. Lovely owners and freshly laid eggs! Beautiful setting and many red kites to watch. We thoroughly recommend it and will return.
Mrs Whittaker

There was plenty of room; the bedrooms were all a good size. The property was warm and cosy for such a big house and always had plenty of hot water. The children enjoyed the climbing frame and the games room was a good idea. The owners were very welcoming and very helpful.

A beautiful spacious Farmhouse in a lovely part of Wales. A lovely relaxing way to spend a family Christmas with 3 generations. Lots of space to relax in and a huge TV!

The Farmhouse was in a lovely quiet setting with wonderful views.
Mrs Elliott
September 2014
The cottage was a fantastic size for 7 adults and set in a glorious position - so peaceful and with beautiful views. The garden was sun trap and the inbuilt BBQ was an added bonus! The home grown veg/eggs that were available (for a small sum) were delicious and the owners were friendly and helpful. A lovely spot to visit and I'm sure we will be back again.
Mrs Halliday
August 2014
Great location to explore West Wales. Fantastic large farmhouse for 3 families with a superb conservatory and private garden area which was useful for letting the dog out! It was home from home and the owners made us all feel very welcome. Delicious fresh veg from the farm and fresh eggs each day. Loved the play area, pool table, table tennis and xbox area for wet days (not that we had much rain at all!) and also loved the walk up to the pond for a bit of fishing with the children. Easy walk down to National Trust property (Llanachaeron) from the house and also a fabulous secret garden only 5 mins drive at Ty Glynn with musical sculptures and wooden adventure play area for young children - a little oasis!! We would definitely return for another holiday in the future.
Mrs Maloney
August 2014
The games room and outside play area for children was great, we also appreciated the safe separate garden linked to the property. The setting was beautiful. A very roomy and homely property in a good location close to coast. We liked it so much we booked for next year within two days of returning home!
Mrs Parr

The Farmhouse was very good.The games room was marvellous for our mixed ages family. It is described by you as a barn but its a step up on that! Excellent!
