We went for a family holiday and it was exactly what we needed. The house is spacious yet cosy, the garden was huge and perfect for the dog to be able to run around without us worrying about him getting out. The hot tub was fabulous and used a lot!! Chris the owner was wonderful and always contactable for any problems (only required when the dog's favourite toy was accidentally thrown on the roof😂) We would heartily recommend Cefnaire and would love to return.

We absolutely loved our stay - the house is beautiful, they had lots there already so we didn’t have to bring much like a slow cooker. Hottub was well maintained and owners very friendly Wifi is a bit patchy but was totally fine as location had good signal House was clean, had an extra bathroom added from the last time we visited last year and was easy to accessCannot wait to rent it again in the future
