Hobby cottage was immaculately clean on arrival. Perfect for walkers, hikers, drivers and relaxers. The holiday was beautiful. The owners were brilliant. Always had time to chat. I'm disabled, and was made to feel at home, and was put at ease from the get go. We went for a few drives around, but mostly stayed around the property. It was an absoluteRead more pleasure to stay there, and we wouldn't hesitate to book again, or recommend these holiday cottages to anyone. 10/10. Hot tub was so relaxing. Hide

Fantastic cottage, very spacious, perfect for your needs (family of four with dog). Well equipped with even basic cleaning materials, towels and bed linen. Stunning area, great for walking the dog.

Beautiful cottage, actually to call it a cottage undersells the place. We all wanted to move in! I especially loved the kitchen it was a dream to make food. It was also good that there was plenty of space to spread out and relax. My boys especially loved the hot tub, and were amused at the sheep as neighbours. Ideal location not far from the lovelyRead more town of Llandovery. Would definitely go again and highly recommend. Hide
