The cottage was smaller than Denham thought. More like a bedsit with kitchen and 2 bedrooms. No washer when it said there was and the electric blew the first night when using microwave.It was very dated and tired stuck in the 70s. Owner was eccentric and when We called to book he hug up on us and then second time he said something strange and hung up. I really through it was going to be a false booking when we got there.Enjoyed our stay. Welshpool amd surrounding areas are beautiful

A lovely little cottage, with ample room. Well furnished with everything you need and lovely little extras home made jams, a pint of milk, tea and coffee supplied by the owners as well as towels, loo rolls, kitchen roll, tea towel, and all bed linen. The owners definitely made us feel very welcome. It is in a beautiful location but very isolated, it is a few miles from the nearest village.
