    We practically lived in the Games room and the Hot tub. The whole house is spacious, bright and well equipped. Each room has its own en-suite, and walk in wardrobe! The kitchen, living room and diner was another well used and loved space for us. The table in the kitchen was perfect for spending time together while cooking as well. The wii was a great hit with the kids as was the pool table and darts, we loved the magnetic ones for the smaller ones too. The place has so much, it’s only 10min to the nearest town where there is an Aldi/Tesco and local restaurants and pubs. There was so much thought put into the place and there’s something for everyone there! DVD’s, games, books, puzzles…hot tub, pool table and darts. We will be back! Highly recommend!

    But we went ahead and booked looking at other reviews and we don't regret taking the right decision. This property has an other entrance towards the side and it's massive and the images on the website don't do any justification for the property. The host has been really helpful and responsive. I would say if in doubt, go ahead and book it.

    The photos online did not do the property justice and it exceeded our expectations, being far more spacious than we imagined it might be. We particularly enjoyed the cosy living room with log fire, while the TV, kitchen and other facilities were all to a high standard. Its location is also excellent, being just minutes from Llandrindod and across the road from the welcoming Severn Arms Hotel. All in all we would definitely recommend this property.
