Celyn is a spacious property with a heated pool, hot tub, sauna, and a variety of entertainment options that guests have enjoyed. The responsive host, Gavin, adds to the positive experience. While some maintenance issues are noted, the overall sentiment is that Celyn is a delightful place for family gatherings and getaways.
Guests have mentioned the need for a more thorough cleaning to address cobwebs and grime, and some have found stained towels and a lack of mattress protectors. However, rooms were described as clean and tidy by others.
The property is described as large and secluded, a short drive from the charming town of Montgomery with its amenities and picturesque countryside. The location is generally praised for its charm and convenience.
The reviews highlight comfortable beds and ample space for large groups. The presence of a heated pool, hot tub, and sauna contributes to the comfort and enjoyment of the guests.
While the facilities like the pool, hot tub, sauna, cinema room, and games room are highly appreciated, guests have noted several maintenance issues such as broken taps and kitchen equipment in need of updating.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or extra thoughtful touches provided by the host, so it is not possible to assess this category. As such, the score is set to null.

The house is comfortable, with sociable spaces downstairs. The kitchen was poorly equipped, perhaps there is an assumption people will eat out or eat take away. The dishwasher had not drained from the last use, upstairs toilets would not flush properly. There were inadequate instructions / guidance. The house is in need of some TLC. However the owner was very responsive & helpful, fixing the issues promptly. The oven definitely needs replacing.

Loved it.

We had a lovely long weekend at Celyn, the heating pool and spa is lovely. Beds were comfortable and there is such a good space for a large crowds. We did canoeing over the Aqueduct, which I highly recommend. Celyn is a lovely place to stay and we enjoyed it. Gavin is a lovely host and extremely helpful and reactive to any requests.
