  Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming cottage for a holiday, and it exceeded all our expectations!

  From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The cottage is beautifully decorated, luxurious, and immaculately clean, with spacious bedrooms and an open living room that’s perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Every little detail has been thought of to make families feel comfortable and welcome. One of our favourite features of the cottage was the beautiful fireplace in the living room, which added such a cosy and warm atmosphere in the evenings. Outside, there’s a fantastic BBQ space where we enjoyed family meals in the fresh air. The kids absolutely loved the separate games room, which had fun activities like table football and table tennis—perfect for keeping everyone entertained! The surrounding area is stunning, and it was the ideal spot for our family to unwind and disconnect. There are plenty of lovely walking trails nearby, great for family strolls and exploring nature. Plus, the cottage is in a fantastic location with easy access to some of South Wales' beautiful castles and beaches, making it perfect for day trips to explore the rich history and stunning coastlines. Edwin, as our host, was fantastic—super friendly, helpful, and responsive to any questions we had. He even reached out before the holiday to provide easy navigation to the cottage and shared a thoughtful list of things to do and places to eat in the area, which made planning so much easier. A lovely welcome list of essentials was also left by Edwin at the cottage, which was such a thoughtful touch! If you're looking for a peaceful, relaxing escape for the whole family, this is the perfect place. We all had an excellent stay and can’t wait to return!

  The cottage was absolutely perfect.

  Lovely garden with lots of nature. There was enough things in the cottage to keep everyone entertained throughout, like the ping pong table, pool table, piano, board games, hot tub and tree swing. We also loved the cake, dessert treats, eggs, bread, tea and coffee, and milk, as well as firewood that the owners gave us. We loved how easy check in and check out was, and how we were left to enjoy the cottage without interference from anyone. And the WiFi was really good. The fridge and freezer were a great size. Although we really enjoyed our stay, there are just a couple of things that I think it would be good for the owners to take on board. Firstly, it would be great if the kitchen was slightly better stocked, e.g. By having more pint glasses, more small oven dishes, cooking tongs etc. Secondly, it would have been great if we had slightly more kitchen roll, toilet paper and dishwasher tablets. Lastly, we don't feel it's necessary to ask for a £500 security bond before our stay. You have our card on file so you could just charge us if anything was broken. But our bond was returned on the same day as check out which was good. Overall a really pleasant stay and we hope to come back soon

  We've had an absolutely fabulously comfortable and relaxing experience at The Old Carriage Court.

  The well laid out facilities around all the bedrooms and communial areas gave us all the space we needed as a group of 10. The beds were really comfy, the rooms nicely decorated and quiet. The 4 bathrooms, 2 of which are ensuite, were spaced so that nobody struggled for a loo. Quality fittings, fixtures and linens. Everyone loved the games room, although for our 6ft 5in 17 Yr old it was a precarious space with some of the old ceiling fittings. Lots of friendly competition and rushed suppers. The outside area within the courtyard was well used this week with barbecue evenings and late afternoon autumn sunshine. Edwin is a delight. A lovely man who welcomed us on our first morning, gave some great suggestions on the local area and good eateries around and about. His instructions for our arrival were spot on. We arrived in the black of night and would have been lost without his very specific route up to the house. The whole group of our family enjoyed this wonderful house, all the comforts of home, the gardens and the surrounding area. We all hope to come again.

  Hen Gapel Seion was beyond our expectations, the location was perfect and easy to get to with private parking space for two cars.

  When we walked in and saw it still retained some of the features from the existing chapel and how bright and open the living area was we were blown away. The doors to the large garden area folded right back and gave you a sense of freedom as you looked at the roaming hills behind, and immediately you felt relaxed. It got even better with the games room. It had a pool table and projecter which most nights we would would project music videos from YouTube whilst enjoying a drink and a game of pool. The beaches around the area were magnificent and just around 15-20min drive in eaither direction and a secluded beach just a walk away as well, which our dog loved. We had a couple of nights were we watched the sun set and go down over the sea from the large windows in the living area, which was magnificent. It was very clean and we were pleasently surprised with the Welsh cake and Proseco waiting for us when we got there. All in all, a perfect holiday and we will be will definitely be returning

  The Pheasantry was beautiful and everything we needed for our stay.

  The owners were very helpful before arriving and happy to answer any questions with quick responses. The cottage is just outside of Builth Wells but easily accessible via car or walking as we walked into town a few times during our stay by the main road. The cottage has more rooms than you actually need and is perfect for larger groups if people want to have large scale games in the dining room together or split off into smaller groups in the board game room, snug, pool and piano room and the upstairs sitting room. The garden/grounds that go all the way around the cottage are amazing and made everything look wonderful as you go for a wander outside, plus the table tennis table, hot tub and tree swing definitely help. Also another big plus is how secluded the cottage is and gives plenty of privacy. Overall an amazing place to stay and will definitely be looking to stay here again if looking to holiday in wales again. Our party was a group of friends made up of x8 25 - 30 year olds, just for context.
