  The cottage was absolutely perfect.

  Lovely garden with lots of nature. There was enough things in the cottage to keep everyone entertained throughout, like the ping pong table, pool table, piano, board games, hot tub and tree swing. We also loved the cake, dessert treats, eggs, bread, tea and coffee, and milk, as well as firewood that the owners gave us. We loved how easy check in and check out was, and how we were left to enjoy the cottage without interference from anyone. And the WiFi was really good. The fridge and freezer were a great size. Although we really enjoyed our stay, there are just a couple of things that I think it would be good for the owners to take on board. Firstly, it would be great if the kitchen was slightly better stocked, e.g. By having more pint glasses, more small oven dishes, cooking tongs etc. Secondly, it would have been great if we had slightly more kitchen roll, toilet paper and dishwasher tablets. Lastly, we don't feel it's necessary to ask for a £500 security bond before our stay. You have our card on file so you could just charge us if anything was broken. But our bond was returned on the same day as check out which was good. Overall a really pleasant stay and we hope to come back soon

  The Pheasantry was beautiful and everything we needed for our stay.

  The owners were very helpful before arriving and happy to answer any questions with quick responses. The cottage is just outside of Builth Wells but easily accessible via car or walking as we walked into town a few times during our stay by the main road. The cottage has more rooms than you actually need and is perfect for larger groups if people want to have large scale games in the dining room together or split off into smaller groups in the board game room, snug, pool and piano room and the upstairs sitting room. The garden/grounds that go all the way around the cottage are amazing and made everything look wonderful as you go for a wander outside, plus the table tennis table, hot tub and tree swing definitely help. Also another big plus is how secluded the cottage is and gives plenty of privacy. Overall an amazing place to stay and will definitely be looking to stay here again if looking to holiday in wales again. Our party was a group of friends made up of x8 25 - 30 year olds, just for context.

  This is a lovely property with a beautiful garden.

  It is spotlessly clean, the beds (and pillows) very comfortable and the bathrooms gorgeous. The owner and housekeeper were very quick to answer any queries. We stayed over Christmas, there was a lovely Christmas tree and some unexpected goodies, which made us feel very welcome. The hot tub was serviced every day so we were confident that the water was clean and safe. The weather was very wet, which meant that we couldn't enjoy the garden and table tennis table as we had planned, but the house was warm and cosy to return to after wet and muddy walks. My only suggestion for improvement would be a doormat into the boot room - we mopped the floor daily and cut up a cardboard box for wet dogs and children to stand on when we came through the door! I recommend this property wholeheartedly.

  We returned yesterday from a fabulous 7 day stay at the Pheasantry.

  We had 9 people in our party plus a dog and found everything at the property to entertain our family and friends whose ages ranged from 12 years to 70 years. The property was very comfortable and a perfect size for our party. We were left not wanting for anything as the property was well provisioned. The gardens were impressive and the seating areas perfectly placed. The hot tub was the icing on the cake for all ages as was the outdoor tennis table. We would all highly recommend. If we were being picky it would be good to have a traffic mirror on the opposite side of the entrance drive to enable a more comfortable right turn or the hedges either side trimmed back to enable better visibility of oncoming traffic. Our deposit was also returned super quickly on the day we returned.

  Everything about this house was brilliant.

  Spacious rooms and fully equipped throughout. We loved the pool table, the table tennis table and our dogs loved exploring the garden. On our first day there were home made cakes, bread, local butter and milk to help us to settle in. The hot tub was tended each day so we didn’t have to think about it. Raspberry bushes and apple trees were laden with fruit and there were so many books and games for us to use when the weather was bad. Our dogs made full use of the dog bath in the boot room. We would highly recommend this house for a family gathering and there are lots of walks locally, great restaurants and places to visit. The house is big enough for everyone to have their own space but also homely enough gather in one room and enjoy a board game or a chat. We loved it!
