What our customers say about their holidays
Confirmed Guest - Verified booking
Love this place and location. We have stayed in Arielâs sister cottage twice before and unfortunately found it to be a little bit cleaner and better managed. Sadly our experience was not one of an âenhanced cleaning protocol â . It was clean, but it could have been better. Inside kitchen drawers were grimey and with food crumbs. One set of single bed sheets had hardened paint splashes on top and bottom sheet. Fortunately, we had an unoccupied bed we could swap sheets with so as not to endure hard scratchy sections . Our top double sheet frankly looked like it had bird poo on it, perhaps from being dried on the line outside somewhere? The wall to the left of the sink had a lot of brown splashes on it, like tea stains. The sitting room sofas and some of the carpets still had a lot of dog hairs on from a previous visitor. The rusting main bedroom radiator really needs repainting. These places are not cheap and at nearly £200 per night we felt for the first time this wasnât quite up to the mark unfortunately, especially with current cleaning expectations. Still, there was no way we were not going to make the most of our much awaited break, got out and about every day, got on with it, didnât waste a minute and had a wonderful time. It was our decision not to contact the housekeeper to rectify these points as we didnât want to loose any of our precious holiday time getting these things sorted. All my dealings with Rural Retreats have been faultless, very straightforward and exactly as you would hope them to be.

We had to ring Rural Retreats because we could not contact our Housekeeper, her phone had been switched off, to mention that we had not received our welcome hamper. Rural Retreats arranged for another Housekeeper, Juliette, who looks after Stella Cottage next door, to bring one to us. She was very friendly and gave us a lovely welcome. The radiator in the Dining Room did not work and we noticed that another guest had mentioned this fact back in February 2024! We have stayed in Ariel before in 2017. It is in a wonderful position with lovely views. So peaceful and tranquil? We loved all the refurbishments especially having a walk in shower. Sadly some of the windows are suffering badly from rot and the one in the kitchen was letting in the heavy rain. Nevertheless it is a lovely cottage to stay in and we had a brilliant week.

Old Norton Cottage was cosy, well equipped with an excellent, modern bathroom and comfortable bed. Although the enclosed garden was not guaranteed dog-proof we found it was fine for a small dog to be loose there under supervision which is always very helpful when travelling with pets. The cottage was also cool inside during the hotter days with the option of sitting outside in the lovely garden when we wanted to sit in the sunshine. The cottage is tucked away in the quiet village which is ideal for relaxing at the end of a busy day. But we also enjoyed being within walking distance to amenities such as shops and pubs as well as the town of Porthcawl. Having the coastal path within easy reach on foot for morning walks was a real treat.

Wow! what a beautiful property. The owner was very helpful and showed he cared not just about the property but about his guests. We were blown away at how beautiful the cottage was and particularly blown away on how much thought had gone into not only the restoration of the cottage in the first place but about every individual item that was perfectly placed to make it a traditional welsh cottage. Everything was clean. The bed was comfy and the bedroom well set up. The bathroom was lovely with everything you want. Garden was beautiful and just right to sit out in the mornings and watch the birds. Will definately visit again when we next decide to go to South Wales.
