Accommodation was lovely but was disappointed that we could not use the cinemaroom and the hot tub wasn't particularly hot these were the reasons I booked in the first place

The perfect place for Sarah’s hen weekend! 🤠🥂We stayed at Cefnaire Isaf Cottage for Sarah’s hen weekend, and we honestly couldn’t have chosen a better place for such a special celebration. From the moment we arrived, the cottage was everything we could have hoped for and more.There was plenty of space for our large group, and the cottage had absolutely everything we needed to make our weekend enjoyable, comfortable and memorable. The stunning views were incredible, and the hot tub was a huge hit with everyone — the perfect place to relax, chat and enjoy a few drinks after a busy day of celebrations!The kitchen deserves a special mention. It was exceptionally well equipped, which made catering for a large group so easy. The large larder fridge, freezer and dishwasher were particularly useful, and we had everything we needed for our pizza night, grazing table, breakfasts and all of our entertainment. It really felt like the owners had thought of everything.We filled the weekend with plenty of fun, games, food, drinks, music and laughter, and the cottage provided the perfect setting for us all to spend quality time together. It was lovely having somewhere so comfortable where everyone could relax and enjoy themselves.The owner was also absolutely fantastic. Any questions we had were answered immediately, which made organising and enjoying the weekend completely stress-free. One of our guests even accidentally left some belongings behind, and the owner very kindly arranged to send them on to her. That level of thoughtfulness and customer service really stood out.We had such an amazing time celebrating Sarah and made some wonderful memories that we’ll all treasure. Cefnaire Isaf Cottage was the perfect setting for our hen weekend, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, spacious and well-equipped place for a group celebration.Thank you so much for helping make Sarah’s hen weekend so special — we would absolutely love to return! ❤️🥂🍾
