Look no further! If you want gorgeous views, luxury accommodation and peace and quiet…this is the place for you. The cottage is beautifully appointed with everything you need and there is a village shop/post office and pub not far away. The owners have thought of everything, even down to dog bowls and towels. They provide you with a welcome pack of butter, milk, jams, eggs and some scrummy Welsh cakes. The cottage is super warm too and the showers are powerful too. There’s a dog field just at the back of the cottage which is enclosed and a bench at the top for you to rest and take in the incredible view. I sat in the window, drinking tea and trying to read my book but got distracted by the wildlife, Red Kites, pheasants and grouse. We will be going back for sure!
