We had a wonderful Christmas at Ty Hir. The house was warm and welcoming with a lovely tree and twinkly snowmen in the windows. Everything we needed was provided - all the usual towels, tea towels, bedding etc but also a fabulous welcome package, more than enough loo roll for the week, dishwasher tabs, salt, pepper, some herbs, coffee, tea, sugar, washing up liquid, cleaning cloths. So many places we have visited require you to buy all those things on arrival - it was lovely to experience such generous hosts. And to top it all off, the sun shone!
