    The only issue we had was entertaining the teenager as many facilities weren't approachable via walking, also very few Halal venues. The nearest restaurant was in Cardiff City centre.

    The home was so cosy and welcoming, stunning views outside. The host was fabulous and answered any questions we had to help us enjoy our weekend stay.

    Lorna the host was excellent with all communication. The house was a good size & had some lovely little decorations about. The house does need wee but tlc here & there & some storage space in the front bedroom, would have been good, saying that we were only there a few days, so we left ours in the cases. The back garden was gorgeous with stunning views, there wasnt the best seating options, however we did buy some folding seats so we were all good couldnt miss out on the beautiful view & weather. Handy wee shop at end street & lovely pub near train station, Lorna took time to send over recommendations for places & was very much appreciated.

    Much larger than it looks on the photos with massive comfy beds! The cottage smelt really fresh and clean. On street parking right outside the house. There are cars on both sides of the road but it’s a wide enough road and cars pass very slowly. Convenient location for the Brecon Beacons (30minute drive) and no where near as expensive as properties closer to them! Would definitely recommend if you’re visiting them to stay here and commute in. The host was really nice and left milk and snacks for us to enjoy. We were able to really relax here, enjoy a home cooked meal and watch the football. This house is a home and is lived in when not rented out so expect things to have moved from the photos or for there to be natural wear and tear. If you can get over that, you’ll love it here!

    It was all lovely. We knew once we arrived that we were in a family home and were careful and anxious not to move anything out of place.

    Laura had kindly left her property, her home in an immaculate state. She also left fresh milk in the fridge and tea and coffee for us to enjoy in the morning. Much appreciated. And the views were breathtaking!

    Easy to find and parking outside. Was much bigger inside than inspected and very clean and tidy. They are currently doing some improvements to garden decking but did pre warn us and were no issue anyway. Good size rooms and beds, clean and tidy. Fresh milk and coffee and tea stuff provided, towels. Host was easy to speak to, helped with us sorting our travel arrangements out whilst in the area and local places to eat. General spot on.

    I think the house is relatively new to booking.com based on the number of reviews and with just a few refinements it would be excellent and accommodation in the area would be popular.

    Overall lots of potential, beautiful views, lots of equipment, comfortable beds, a powerful shower and a comfortable living room.

    Parking but that's only because it was new to me the streets as im from north of england, so very different, if you know what streets and parking are like then will be fine.

    Convenient location and good alternative to hotels. Was clean + tidy and the host was very helpful ensuring we got in alright and helped with any issues we had.
