Very nice log burner for cosey evenings while playing a game or too of the sellection in the coffee table.Lovely watching the red kites from the house. Pearl the owner is very nice and available by phone if needed.Hope to stay again in the future and would definitely recommend to anyone.It's in a great location for Excellent days out with water breaks its neck just down the road. The Elan valley, hafren forest and hafod forest about an hour's drive each all well worth a visit.
