    Written directions for finding the caravan would help to avoid the confusion caused by the inaccurate satnav directions. I couldn’t connect to the internet. This wasn’t a problem for my one night stay but could be inconvenient if you’re staying for a longer period.

    Helen was welcoming and helpful and the caravan was as described. It was clean, comfortable and functional. It is in a private garden with outdoor seating which is very welcome. Cooking facilities though limited are adequate for a short stay.

    Slightly more room for storage/bigger table for eating but limited space makes that impractical. Fine for a single person, bit of a squeeze otherwise.

    Cosy little caravan, decent facilities and friendly owners. 10 minute walk from the town centre and places to eat, which was fine. Beautiful location and surrounding scenery.

    Really cosy and spotlessly clean. I was walking Offa’s Dyke with my little dog - so this was a perfect stop at Knighton. And a hot shower and a comfortable bed. About 10 mins to town centre with lots of shops and restaurants - but so quiet. Self contained garden - great for eating outside and the dog to stretch her legs (before walking 14 miles).

    I was walking a Offa's Dyke Path and needed somewhere in Knighton for 2 nights so I could have a rest day. The caravan fitted the bill perfectly. Lovely quiet relaxing location. Facilities for self catering. Bed surprisingly comfy. Good price. Excellent hosts.

    Having to come home

    Loved the van, having never stayed in a tourer. It was bigger than I expected! Lovely area! 10 minutes walk into town. Peaceful surroundings The garden being enclosed was a plus especially for my elderly dog who could mooch and play ball

    Would have been nice to have a breadknife and wooden spoon.

    Self-sufficiency. Cleanliness - couldn't fault it. Provision of bed linen and towels. Being able to cook for myself and not having to 'handover' so letting me leave the property early next morning. No external noise.

    As others have said, wasn't the easiest to find if just going by address, but Helen was on hand to explain. I might advise put something very visible at the entrance, to help stand out. WiFi kept cutting out. I expected this and didn't rely on having WiFi.

    A well-maintained caravan, with everything needed. Clean and cosy. Loved staying here and made me consider caravaning again. Easy walk into town. Milk and tea provided. Host was helpful and lovely.

    A really quirky idea. It suited me well for one night, as a stop over during hiking the Offa’s Dyke path. It was better value than a hotel, private and very cosy. Helen was a lovely host and very helpful.

    My Satnav didn't pinpoint the property using the post code. I took coordinates when I was there. They are N 52.339486 and W 003.038677

    Breakfast not provided but cold water and milk in the fridge.

    Found it a little difficult to enter the van without any support (handle) but I am 92 years old!

    It was ideal to rest my head and meet up each day with my extended family and only five minutes away without having Togo into town. The owner was very pleasant and helpful, only sorry I had to leave early without personally thanking her.

    It was too difficult for me to find without the host's help but they were very responsive. There is also a quite prominent caraavan in another property at the bottom of the road.

    The novelty of staying in a caravan for the first time, the well organised instructions, the garden and privacy and the view in the evening. Everything worked well.

    See above. I am now a very disappointed customer of Y Frau. Furthermore I am an utterly frustrated user of Bookings.com and am not at all confident about using the app ever again. Please see my review of my experience at the hotel in Ludlow for further info about this.

    I was unable to find the property based on the location post code. I was given a code to use to access the property. Having failed to locate it, it was useless. I had advised my arrival time as between 20:00 and 21:00. In the event, due to a problem at Colwyn bay where I needed to break my journey from Holyhead, I did not reach the postcode until c 22:45. It had fallen dark at about 21:30. I used my car headlights and my phone torch to search area around the postcode for almost 90 mins before giving up and booking into a hotel in Ludlow as it was so late this was my only option. This cost me more than twice the price of Y Ffau
