    We were a group of 8 and always felt we had more than enough room. In addition there is plenty of parking around the house which made life a whole lot easier than some other properties we have stayed in. There were a couple of issues we can across unfortunately as stated in some of the other reviews a couple of the beds are not overly comfortable and realistically need new mattresses. Another problem we found were most of the bathroom doors and one of the bedrooms had a habit of sticking, the result was on a couple of occasions people got stuck in those rooms and had to be released. TBH the above would be pretty easy to fix with some minor maintenance. Lastly one issue we found was related to the baths, unfortunately a few weeks before the trip one of our party broke her hip. There are no dedicated showers and the baths are a little on the deep side with no grab handles, whilst fine for someone able bodied it was a little problematic for us.

    Two good sized bathrooms with baths. The only thing missing was a proper shower. Taking a shower in a bath is not common in The Netherlands.

    The location of the house is brilliant for walks in the Brecon Beacons and the size of the house is fantastic but could require some improvement. We felt with the size of the house the space could utilised alot more ie king size beds and bigger sofas. The beds felt old and very uncomfortable and could also use more neutral bedding. Just a few tweaks could really make this house amazing. A clothes airer would be a great help as it has an outdoor rotary line but you can't guarantee good weather in Wales so we were a bit stuck. A few bits in the kitchen felt a bit dated and could do with updating. The previous occupants hadn't put the bins out on time so we had almost a week of bin bags outside the driveway and every morning we had to tidy all the litter up in the street as the crows had pecked open the bin bags. All in all it was a pleasant stay but would only stay here again if it was updated and the space was utilised more. Great pub at the top of the hill though!
