Absolutely fabulous stay from start to finish. The property is so beautiful and the pictures do not do it justice on just how big and amazing it really is. Alex is very helpful and attentive from the welcome Prosecco, to little notes left around the property and the texts and calls back and forth between us due to storm darragh causing a power cut, alex even sorted getting us wood from her neighbour and updates on the power returning. It did not dampen our weekend away a large group of adults, mainly couples who go away once a year without the kids. Beds are super comfortable, blankets available and we all love a blanket, kitchen had everything we needed and large enough fridge and freezers for all our food and alcohol. Hot tub was great and very clean, games room was our favourite room, the girls could watch a film in the sitting area while the lads played pool/darts etc and we was still all together. Do not have one bad thing to say about our stay and would highly recommend! We normally stay in a new property every time we go away but if we was to return anywhere it would be here!

A fabulous weekend spent with friends at this beautiful house. It has everything and more. Alex left us prosecco on arrival which was very much appreciated and she was available for any problems which may have occurred. The house was beyond our expectations. Beautifully decorated and so much space. The views are gorgeous too. Easy to get onto the canal for walking and a short walk into Crickhowell. It was even better than we expected.
