Riverside Cottage in Llandrindod Wells is praised for its stunning location, friendly owners, and dog-friendly environment. Guests enjoy the beautiful gardens, river walks, and wildlife. The property provides a peaceful retreat with some mentioning a welcome bottle of wine. While most find the cottage comfortable and clean, a few note areas for improvement, particularly in the kitchen and maintenance.
Most guests report the cottage as spotlessly clean, with no dog odours despite being pet-friendly. However, some mention the need for better cleaning in specific areas, such as the kitchen and hoover, which slightly lowers the score.
The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, beautiful river setting, and proximity to local attractions. The large garden and private walks are particularly appreciated, contributing to a high score.
Guests find the bedrooms comfortable and the property cosy, with a few noting the beds could be more comfortable. The large garden adds to the comfort, but some noise from adjoining properties is mentioned.
While the outdoor facilities are loved, the kitchen and some appliances are noted as outdated or inadequate. The lack of certain cleaning tools and an iron are also mentioned, indicating room for improvement.
The reviews mention a welcome bottle of wine, indicating thoughtfulness from the owners. However, as gifts are not consistently referenced across reviews, it is politely noted that such gestures are not guaranteed, and the score is set to null due to insufficient information.

The layout is an odd one. The kitchen is tiny, two people could not pass! The sitting room and bathroom are a good size, although access to the garden through the bathroom is unusual and potentially embarrassing for anyone using it! The garden is excellent and is very pleasant sitting by the river. Both bedrooms are a good size, although the en-suite toilet is tiny and the double bed mattress could do with replacement. Parking is fine, however, if all cottages were occupied it might be a bit tight. There is a nice walk along the river and an excellent hill to climb just over the (busy) road, although the path is completely overgrown in September (& some other months too I expect). Overall, happy with it, the owner was friendly and helpful.

The properties are very comfortable and very well kept. The owners couldnât be more friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. The grounds are exceedingly well kept for you to roam and enjoy. Thank you for another lovely restful week. We will be back.
