  The only good thing about this cottage was the cat that visited us daily, he was absolutely gorgeous, aside from his company, the stay was awful.

  We had expected more from all the great reviews recently written. The first night, we got into the hottub and immediately my legs started to itch terribly, we didn't stay long in the hottub due to this discomfort and when we got out, our legs were red raw, we immediately attempted to wash what we assumed was too much chlorine off, in the shower but still our legs remained itchy and sore. The shower is a wet room and the flooring is not designed for this purpose, it is so slippery and I ended up slipping and falling on the floor that same evening, fortunately I did not hurt myself too badly. We then decided to have some food, only to find that there was nothing in sight to take anything out of the oven, no oven glove or tea towel so we gave up and went to bed, which was the most uncomfortable experience, the bedding looked as if it should have been thrown away years back. It was awful quality and rough. The next morning, we decided to speak to the owner about the hot tub and then go out for the day and try to make the most of the weekend. We would pick up some tea towels and attempt the hotub again that evening. I will say that the owner was very nice about the hottub situation and did say it would be sorted by the time we got back. Although, she did mention that it had been checked before we arrived. That evening, the owner came to see us and advised us that the hottub had been emptied and refilled and that the issue was that there had been too much chlorine in there (even though it had been checked)? We gave the hot tub another try but didn't last long in there before we had to get out again. I'm not sure if the damage had already been done and our skin could take no more or if the issue had not been resolved. We did not return to the hottub after that, which is a shame as we'd only chosen this cottage due to the covered hot tub. The other issue with our stay was the lack of attention to detail where cleanliness was concerned. The house was generally clean, such as the beds and worktops but the draining board looked as if it had not been cleaned in months and I'd had to scrub it clean to be able to put any clean utensils on it. The bathroom mirror had long hairs all over it and the bathroom walls were mouldy. We had initially thought we would go home on the Friday but decided to make the most of being away by going into Saundersfoot and Tenby but we were really disappointed in this cottage and this put a dampener on the whole weekend. To top it all off, due to the chemical burns from the hot tub, when we got home, our skin was bad for over a week and we had to get treatment from the pharmacy. We will not be visiting this place again. I wasn't going to leave a review but thought people needed to be warned about the hot tub and very dangerous bathroom floor. I'm fortunate that I am quite young and didn't hurt myself when I fell but I would be concerned if this happened to an older person.

  Beautiful cottage, so peaceful.

  We stayed in the falconers cottage. It wad clean and tidy. Will met us on arrival. What a lovely friendly man. He made sure we had everything we wanted, he explained the buttons for the water and heating, although i dont think it dropped below 25 degrees all week and asked us mid week if there were any issues or concerns. We sat down by the pond and watched the dragon flies, morehen and there were a couple herons after the chick's.lots of little birds too. At back of cottage was a sheep field. We even saw the RAF planes fly over. The cottage had all the equipment you needed and Instrsutions on how to use TV with freesat, cooker dishwasher. One tiny little niggle, as this is only personal preference and not a fault with cottage at all, is a TV that you can use Netflix or amazon prime or a dvd player avaliable but that's because I'm use to it at home. Wonderful cottage and will certainly book again and recommend 100%.

  We stopped in Whitewater Cottage for 3 nights as a mini dog holiday in Llangollen and everything about the cottage was perfect!

  The Cottage - the cottage felt like it had just been renovated with brand new carpets throughout, new modern appliances and a loft conversion. The kitchen had everything you would need to be fully self catering it even had a small dish washer! The lounge was cosy with two couches and with a TV which had netflix which was handy as the pubs were closing at 10pm due to coronavirus rules. The bedroom was large and the shower was amazing. The Location - the cottage is set right in the centre of the picturesque Llangollen. Amazing scenery wherever you look, the town is surrounded by mountains, features a river thats flows through the centre and even boasts a canal you can walk down. We will definitely be going back, we did three decent size hikes while we were there but it just feels like there has been so much more we haven't seen yet.

  We stayed at Falconers Cottage for 7 nights in April.

  We loved the cottage and the peaceful location. It's an ideal base to visit the many beaches, towns and villages along the west side of the island. Saying that, nowhere in Anglesey is too far away for a visit. If you just want to chill out then the cottage is a great place to relax. We had access to the extensive grounds which contains a small lake and a river also runs through it (George, our German Shepherd had a wonderful time exploring). The owners Will and Diane are really nice, not intrusive and very helpful should you need anything or want some information on the local area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, so much so, we have booked again for later in the year.

  Brilliant location, spotlessly clean, lovely fitted kitchen, everything was there.

  Great size bedroom and comfortable bed. However, the two sofas in the living room are disgusting. They are both thread bare and should be thrown out. I was unable to get up from either sofa as they are so low. I measured from floor to the base and it was only 8 inches, even with the cushion on top it was no higher than 12 inches or 30cms. My partner had to pull me up every time and if he went out I had to sit on hard wooden chairs. They are the worse sofas ever. The sofas must be replaced with higher seating. We book holiday cottages twice a year and have never experienced such awful soft furniture.
