We visited as two families of 4 and it was a perfect size for us. Nice and cosy, makes you feel like at home. And views are amazing. The main road wasn't noticeable at all. We definitely would be back here!

Was comfortable and clean and in a nice location, yes there's the busy road but you hardly notice that it's there. Would stay again if ever in that area.

The Road is noisy but we found this was fine within the house. The space within was well laid out and clean, we appreciated the welsh cakes given on arrival. The location was perfect for getting iut and about with it being close to the A55.
