"Best weekend away ever"
From the moment we put the key in the door and walked into the cottage we knew we were going to have a good weekend. Instantly, we could see that everything was exactly as we saw on the web site, and the welcome pack on the table, what can I say but what a kind thing to do! We had the best weekend away ever. Thank you so much. We will be booking again. |

“Perfect little getaway!!!”
The cottage is good size for 4 people, has all the necessary mod cons, including excellent cooking facilities and dining area. There was plenty of space in the house and outside (game room and fishing lakes) for us to hang out together, or to have our own space. There is some fantastic countryside scenery nearby. The owner was extremely helpful and friendly , all information provide us with extensive details about directions and all of the great little outings there are in the area, as well as food menu of the local diners. This was a perfect little getaway!!! Thank you very much for your hospitality!!! |

"Luxurious, well stocked and Value for money accommodation" Beautifully appointed luxury accommodation with everything you could want and more. The property is modern bright and has excellent quality comfortable furniture, fixtures and fittings. It provided a welcome pre-winter break for my pet dog and I. The facilities equalled or exceeded the items in my home and were modern and well crafted, no expense had been spared. The welcome pack was both a welcome surprise and provided on arrival essentials before unpacking. The location in the middle of the country gave idyllic peace with little or no sodium or other light pollution and no noise pollution, yet was only ten miles from a large town and supermarkets. Even the car rally overnight failed to cause any real disturbance. The local facilities were good for a get away break and the local attractions were a delight. Local hostelries were good, but I felt little need to sample these. At the end of the week there was nothing significant missing. Had I the money I would have bought it for a second home!
I have stayed in a number of other luxury cottages and this put all those to shame especially at this price range.
Thank you to Mr & Mrs Isaac. |

"Peaceful and Relaxing" We found Cartws y Parc to be immaculately and tastefully decorated and the living space downstairs was very comfortable with 4 adults together. It had all the kitchen equipment you needed and there was a lovely welcome pack, also little touches like bin bags, dishcloths and washing up liquid, salt, pepper and towels, were a welcome addition. Also provided was a book with attractions and Pub Restaurant Menus, which was very helpful. Opposite the cottage was a lovely area for stretching the dogs legs with lovely view across the countryside. Our only downside was we are tall and used to king size beds, and the beds were standard size, when there was room for bigger beds. Overall though the cottage has been thoughtful put together, with very stylish taste and we found the owners to be extremely helpful. We would certain return and would have no hesitation in recommending it. |

This Mid Wales holiday cottage is located on a small and select, family run caravan park and is surrounded by farmland. The park itself is enclosed by mature trees and looks out at the towering Moel Bentyrch and its nestling valleys. Facilities on site include a laundrette, telephone, fishing lake and a newly developed play area and games room. Football, bowling, swings, darts, pool and table tennis can all be played here as part of your family holidays in Wales.
The local pub is located 1 mile away in the little village of Pontrobert and you can also join two popular walks here - Ann Griffiths Walk and Glyndwr's Way (National Trail). The Tan House Inn is also 3 miles away and Meifod (5 miles) has a pub, rugby club and shop.
Llanfair Caereinion (6 miles) has all the necessary amenities including shops, pubs, banks and even a steam train. The busy market town of Welshpool (11 miles) offers many attractions including castles and a canal to take you back to a bygone era.
Take the short drive to the stunning lake Vyrnwy, where you can try your hand at watersports and cycling or enjoy a leisurely walk and good lunch. Golf and fishing are popular in this part of Wales, too, with plenty of golf courses and a coarse fishing lake.
If you’re after castles and culture, Mid Wales has both in spades. Nearby Dolforwyn Castle, for example, was the last castle to be built by Llewelwyn (the Last Prince of Wales), between 1273 and 1277. Powis Castle, which started life as a medieval fortress, is a must, especially for its beautiful gardens and collection of paintings, sculpture, furniture and tapestries.
Portmeirion and the Mountains of Snowdonia offer great days out whilst pony trekking and quad trekking are available locally. Other popular attractions include Llanrhaeadr Waterfall (the tallest in the UK), the Centre for Alternative Technology and King Arthur's Labyrinth.
