The surrounding scenery is appreciated for its tranquillity and beauty, with the Elan Valley being a nearby highlight. The local pub's proximity is noted, although its current status is unclear. Some guests suggested improvements for comfort and facilities, but overall experiences were positive, with many expressing a desire to return.
Cleanliness
The majority of guests have reported the cottage to be spotless and very clean, indicating high standards of cleanliness. There was a single mention of dog hair on a stair carpet, but this seems to be an isolated incident not corroborated by other reviews.
Location
The location is generally praised for its quietness, scenic views, and proximity to walking areas and local attractions like the Elan Valley. However, some guests noted the lack of mobile signal and immediate footpaths, which slightly impacted the convenience of the location.
Comfort
Guests found the cottage cosy and the beds comfortable, with a warm welcome and a log burner adding to the comfort. However, there were several mentions of uncomfortable sofas and a suggestion for rugs to add warmth, indicating room for improvement in this area.
Facilities
Facilities were generally found to be good, with a well-equipped kitchen and secure garden. However, there were comments about the need for updates and additions such as a hoover, better bathroom facilities, and more comfortable furniture. Some maintenance issues were also mentioned.
