Mixed feedback on cleanliness; some guests found the property clean and tidy, while others reported grease, mould, and dirt in various areas, affecting the score negatively.
There is insufficient information to accurately score the location as reviews do not provide specific details on the property's location relative to attractions or convenience.
Comfort is generally satisfactory with cosy seating and a log burner, though some guests mentioned creaky beds and damp bedding, which suggests room for improvement.
Facilities like the games area and hot tub are appreciated, but issues with maintenance such as broken pool cues, a malfunctioning dryer, and a partially working grill have been reported.
No reviews mention gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.
About this property
Brynhoffnant 2.4 miles. Tucked away on the outskirts of Rhydlewis near Brynhoffnant in Ceredigion, is this lovely three-bedroom farmhouse, The Cottage. Enjoying a wonderful location with easy access to the local amenities and coast, The Cottage is a fantastic dog-friendly dwelling for a group or family of eight.

There is also an inviting hot tub where you can enjoy an evening amongst the bubbles after a day of exploring.
As the evening cools, retire to the sitting room, where you can snuggle up on the plush seating in front of a much-loved family favourite on the TV, as your pooch curls up front of the crackling woodburning stove. Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can choose from three well-appointed bedrooms, a double and a bunk room with Jack-and-Jill access to a bathroom featuring a whirlpool bath and shower over, and a family room with a double and a bunk room with its own en-suite bathroom, also with indulgent whirlpool bath.

Beds a little creaky but that is the only fault we can think of. House was clean and tidy when we arrived. We had a lovely stay, thank you. We had an issue with one of the neighbours dogs attacking our dog so be careful when leaving the house to get to you car and things but owner was very understanding and helpful.

The TV wasn't working on arrival and the hosts sorted a replacement very quickly for us which was great. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of plates, cooking utensils & cutlery, everything was catered for. The games area was a great bonus, we enjoyed a few evenings with the family making use of the facility as well as taking advantage of the hot tub! The added bonus to the property was the friendly Chickens & Ducks roaming around, my son was thrilled!
