    From the moment we arrived, the owners greeted us with such warmth and friendliness that made us feel right at home. Being on a working farm was such a unique and enjoyable experience for us. One of the best parts was how accommodating they were to our three furry friends. It's usually quite a challenge to find properties that welcome pets, so we were incredibly grateful for the comprehensive information about dog-friendly spots in the area provided in the welcome pack. It's a thoughtful touch that sets this place apart from others. Overall, our time there left us feeling incredibly happy and content. If we were to offer any suggestions for improvement, it would be to ensure that the kitchen is fully equipped with all the essentials. While it was well-stocked with utensils, having sharp knives, a rolling pin, and a working tin opener would have been handy additions. Thank you once again for providing us with such a wonderful stay.

    Everyone there is very friendly and welcoming to humans and our dogs. The scenery and walls from location are fab. I highly recommend to anyone who enjoys the outdoors.

    Owners are welcomeing. Was nice to be able to have a cuppa soon as we walked in. Welsh cakes and milk was left for us. Great idea leaving dog bowls in the cottage as we left ours at home by mistake. Everything you needed was there. Plenty of cups, plates. Even a flask in the cupboard. Lovely views. Thank for a wonderful stay. Would definitely book again in the future.
