"The cottage is situated behind Wrights and there is ample parking. The cottage itself is overall ok. There are towels provided but only one per person per week. Beds are ok the room with the shower although has a wardrobe there is no hanging pole, so you cant use coat hangers! There are shelves....the cleanliness is ok but my wife did clean a bit. Its a comfy house for 4 maximum. All in all it was ok."

"We booked to stay in this cottage with our two dogs. Our first trip to Wales. Initial reviews looked promising, on reflection I later noted that most of the good reviews were pretty old. On arrival the kitchen was dirty, bacon fat in the sink, crumbs everywhere. Split seat in kitchen, broken cooker, dirty fridge. Numerous broken items throughout the cottage. One bathroom had no opening window or privacy blind which looks out onto a car park which was regularly in use by the shop in the converted pub next door. The other bathroom had a broken sink which leaked water everywhere when used. Clearly an on going issue as the ceiling underneath was covered in water stains and floor tiles were all lifted. The cleaner didn't know what polish was for, dust everywhere! Supposedly dog friendly but the garden is not secure. Booked through Sykes, who's customer service was appalling. They clearly have to deal with a lot of complaints as they were very abrupt. They have a policy whereby you have to ring the owner whilst still at the property to get the issues resolved. I personally didn't want to waste my entire holiday sorting out issues that I shouldn't have been made to deal with in the first place. We did call the owner who offered to pop round at some point (he did not live locally) with some silicone sealant to sort the sink, trust me it would have taken a lot more than that to solve all the issues in that cottage! Beautiful part of the country but unfortunately our holiday was ruined by the disappointment and aggravation the cottage condition caused."

"A book about the history of Led Zepplin in the bathroom, a good start. Clean comfortable and in a great location with views from the garden. Bedrooms really comfortable both with en-suite, great shower in one bedroom large bath in the other (no Jacuzzi). Really comfy sitting room with Sky TV on large screen. Well equipped modern kitchen. Next door to the cottage is a very good restaurant, deli that you have to try. All in all really enjoyable will be back. Steve"

"This cottage is ideal for visiting the local area and is in a lovely peaceful village. Very well equipt and clean throughout with all utensils, towels etc provided. Two double bedded rooms, en suite (1 with shower, 1 bath) with lots of space and storage. Definitely recommend considering the value for money. "

"We booked this cottage for September 2014 at the beginning of the year from Sykes Cottages as we had used them before. The location was perfect for us On first impressions it looked fantastic but after a few hours we found that there was no windows downstairs at all. The weather was hot as we were having an "Indian Summer". There are 2 heavy glass doors which are advertised as picture windows in the kitchen and lounge. They look lovely but were useless as they would not open, the frames needed repair because of the weight of the doors . Hence, I was not able to cook. Upstairs, there was no jacuzzi bath as advertised----one of the reasons we booked this cottage. My main worry was that there was no fire escape except for the downstairs front door. The large window in the upstairs bathroom was locked due to faulty handle. We were never contacted by the owners. We left before the week was over. We've 'put it behind us now' and down to experience. I have had no feedback from Sykes and don't expect any either. We won't be booking with them again."

"My husband and I along with our dog Nuala enjoyed a short break here back in March. It's a lovely comfy house, warm and cosy, spotlessly clean on arrival and with every facility you could want. Would have liked to stay longer and I'd highly recommend this property."
