  Lovely property, very quiet location perfect to relax. The hot tub was ready for our arrival which was great. Couldn't find the hairdryer but a quick text to the owner and they sorted one of theirs for me to borrow as the previous people had pinched the original one! Lovely welcome pack of cakes and Welsh cakes and a little bottle of milk. The bed was comfy and there are plenty of blankets as it does get chilly at night. It does get super warm when the sun is out but there are plenty of fans and once you open the doors and windows it soon cools down. Was great to have an oven and microwave and a big fridge freezer so we could have meals in rather then eat out all the time. The nearest big supermarket is morrisons which is 30 mins away by car in Aberystwyth however there is a nisa just a 5 minute walk across the horse field which had a really good selection of stuff. Abaeraron is a 2 mile walk, it's a nice walk, you can't really walk down the main a437 as there's no path however if you follow the path as far as you can then take a right through the houses there's a path all the way into town, it's not for the faint hearted lol it is a very steep slope for around half a mile. New quay is a 10 minute drive away, it's very small but very pretty. The owners are very welcoming and the views from the silo balcony are beautiful with just the horses as neighbours. Considering its on a working livery farm the noise of tractors didn't bother us at all and it wasn't all day every day either.

  What I am going to say is already known by the owner because they LIVE there.

  I was upset to realise that the entrance to the property is a steep short descent and a quick left turn descending further to the flat parking area.The reverse to leave the property is a very difficult assent of the second slope to the main road where you have to push yourself out to see the traffic. I was too nervous to do it and my husband drove every day which isn't our normal pattern. "Fore warned is fore armed". From the picture you have on your website, there is nothing that indicates the approach! Your lack of info re the approach was not right. The second problem was that the lock on the door of the property didn't work. My husband is a practical man and usually nothing phases him --however most days we tried to secure the property and our belongings, it took him upwards of 12 to 20 times to lock up. On the Saturday night the lady renting the other property said she would keep an eye out for us and that she had problems as well.. I got to the point of carrying my jewellery roll with me whenever we went out. The owner knew the doors were tricky to lock and we left a note to the owner when we left of a national company who would /could fix the problem. Finally I don't usually complete these feedback forms of yours because there is NEVER any response from you and I'm seriously thinking which company we use for our future holidays..

  We really enjoyed our stay at this property, it's in a quiet location near one of our favourite places - Borth.

  We liked that you can easily walk into Borth to visit the beach, Zoo, pubs and shops. The property was warm and welcoming, and the Christmas tree was the perfect addition. The shower was very nice, everything was clean and we had everything we could need in the kitchen. The wood burner was lovely and made it very cosy. The owners seemed very helpful and we appreciated the welcome pack of tea, cereal, bacon and sausages - a thoughtful touch. For us, there were two downsides. On arrival we discovered the hot tub was not working. To the owners credit, they tried very hard to get the problem resolved and this was fixed on the second day of our stay, but meant that it was not available until the third day. Not the end of the world, but as this was our Christmas get away that we had saved up for and looked forward to for most of the year it was quite disappointing. It would have been nice to have been forewarned about this problem before we arrived. The only other negative was that the pump fitted in the hot tub was quite noisy, and coupled with uncomfortable beds we didn't sleep well. Overall it's a great property and it was just unfortunate that a few small issues led to a less relaxing stay than we had expected and hoped for.

  We spent Christmas at Moana & it was like home from home.

  It’s very spacious but warm & cosy too, perfectly laid out, I’m sure I could live there. The log burner was great for cosy nights in watching Christmas films after a relaxing soak in the hot tub. Borth beach is only up the road and the locals were very welcoming, there are many pubs dotted around the area. Aberystwyth is only a short drive & has all the shops you may need. The welcome pack from the owners was very much appreciated, the bacon was delicious & the Prosecco too. The lodge had everything we needed to cook that special Christmas roast. Even the heavy rain at times couldn’t dampen our spirits as the hot tub is covered from above, but open enough to see the sky, we watched the most amazing moon rise on our last evening. I would definitely recommend either of the two lodges and am hoping to visit again in the summer.

  Location is amazing, just a short walk to Borth.

  The property is nice and peaceful and we came home feeling very relaxed. The hot tub was great and beds were very comfy. I would definitely recommend the property and borth for a visit to people. Although the owners live on the property they left you too it but were there if needed which made it feel very private. My negative about it all is the cleanliness. I would say it’s surface clean however under the sink in the bathroom left over toothpaste gunk from previous stays and around the toilet basin were hair and dust. Walls were dusty and cobwebs about and dead fly’s in skirting board. I didn’t complain as I was happy to clean myself as I am a bit obsessive with cleaning however it’s the attention to detail and personally I expect this to be basic in my eyes but also can see others may not mind.
