The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean (& I'm picky!), lots of thoughtful touches and had everything we needed for our stay. There are fabulous views of the countryside front and back and a private garden to enjoy. Great base for exploring the area. The owner Eirian is great and went above and beyond when we had a problem with our car. Thanks again Eirian
