There was a welcome pack in the apartment which was both thoughtful and much appreciated. The apartment was extremly well appointed, clean and had everything we coud possibly need during our stay. The hosts had thoughtfully provided cards with details for resturants within the local and surrounding area which was very useful. There were also information leaflets on local walks, the many beautiful beaches in the area, and points of interest all with maps which are well worth exploring. The immediate area of Dinas Cross has a Pub, Chip Shop, petrol station with convenience store, which stocks a wide range of goods locally grown vegetables, fresh baked bread and cakes, fresh milk, and an off-licence. Our stay at The Swallows was a very relaxing one which we are going and looking forward to repeating in the future.

It was spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable. The property was ideal for walking through beautiful scenery from the front door. Thank-you so much David and Ann for being the perfect hosts. A much needed relaxing week. Probably the best property we have stayed at. Janet and Phil xx
