Reviews

Lovely comfortable cottage in great location for me. Home Owner was lovely very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely visit again.

Ms Alys L,

Lovely peaceful location with good views across the garden,pond and fields beyond from the large windows across the kitchen. Loved watching the 7 geese and 4 goslings parade around the pond and the racehorses being exercised. Very comfortable with everything needed for a self catering holiday, well prepared and very clean.Easy access to Cardiff, Dyffryn( N,T) and the wonderful Museum of Welsh life and several beaches.Unfortunately the village shop and post office no longer open but a large super market easily reached about 3 moles way.Very friendly and helpful owner. We will certainly return in the future.

Mrs Agnes M,
