We have just returned from a two night stay, the accommodation was as described in a beautiful setting. The sat nav didn’t seem to pick up the location but the directions from the host allowed us to find it easily enough. <br/>The welcome hamper was a lovely surprise with great quality butchers sausage and bacon alongside fresh milk and eggs. It was great to arrive and not need to go straight to a shop as there was a generous amount of everything we needed - coffee pods, tea bags, white and red wine alongside a chilled bottle of Prosecco in the fridge! <br/>The first night we ate nearby at Hills which was great, we got up early for Pen Y Fan (about 20 mins drive away) and returned to cook our fry up on the fire pit and make use of the hot tub. We spent the rest of the weekend exploring locally - we visited Pwll Y Wrach which was less than 10 mins away and found some lovely cafes. We ate at the Fellin Fach Griffin for an evening meal which was close by.<br/>Great stay, would definitely return!
