What a hidden gem!
We booked this stay really last minute and it exceeded our expectations in every way. The cottages are all clean and spacious and the hosts have thought of everything you may need to make your stay comfortable. The games room was an added bonus and of course the horses make the stay very special. Would definitely recommend and would visit again!

Lovely family holiday
Family holiday in the heart of Wales . We had a lovely time the cottage was perfect for us with a large living area both inside and outside so we could all dine together and we had our own little cottages with full facilities as well . Beautiful surrounding area lots of walks from the cottage . The weather wasn’t kind to us but there was lots to do nearby the hosts were very helpful . The grandchildren loved the family pets and seeing the horses each day . I would highly recommend we will definitely book a return trip .

Walking weekend
Perfect for our annual boys (middle aged men) walking weekend. Great location and accommodation. Hosts Nicky and Ray were on hand with advice on walks and sourcing beer from excellent Antur brewery but super relaxed and accommodating. Fantastic stay which everyone enjoyed

Fantastic Property
Wonderful house in a lovely location, 15 of us stayed there to celebrate my Dads 80th birthday. Lovely eating area outside by the stream & also a great table inside. The owners were very friendly, lovely chocolate cake on arrival & very accommodating with the children playing football & lots of space for them outside to run around. I would highly recommend this place.
