  After searching the Sykes website only 6 weeks before found this listing found it easy to book and had regular contact with them prior to stay.

  No idea why this property was still available as it far exceeded expectations. As soon as we had pulled up we were greeted by the owners and welcomed. We spoke regularly during the stay checking all was ok and had a great recommendation for a special meal from them. The property was comfortable and surprisingly roomy and very well equipped with everything that was needed for our stay. We were blessed with good weather so used the large external patio area quite a lot in the afternoon and evening, plenty of seating and tables and well maintained. The property is situated just on the edge of the Village and was a 5 minute walk to local amenities we used 3 of the take away restaurants and the local shop regularly. Also 5 minutes to the seafront walked the promenade a few times and had breakfast at the Seaside Cafe before a local walk above the Village. Would stay again and would highly recommend this property. The Week went too fast. Saw a previous review about car size complaint and access. I have an SUV and yes it is narrow in places but I had no issues. just know your Vehicles dimensions and you will be ok.

  Absolutely lovely property with stunning views all around.

  If you’re looking to get away from it all, then I would highly recommend staying here. The owner, Dilwyn, was a great host. Met us in the village to drive us to the property, as driving directly to it using a sat nav would take us down a difficult road. House was lovely and cosy, had everything we needed for our two day break. The owners left us some cakes and milk in the fridge, as well as other essentials such as tea bags and sugar. The wifi was very good, considering we were in such a rural location. Handy to have sky sports and netflix etc. Hot tub was great, lovely to relax in after a busy day exploring. The location is very rural, but supermarkets and restaurants available within a ten min drive. As Dilwyn the host suggested, always use the sat nav to get to Henllan village first, and then to the cottage so as to avoid the very narrow road. House was spotless, and would definitely return next time we have a few days off. Can’t recommend highly enough. Thank you Dilwyn for everything, much appreciated. Andreas, Michelle and kids

  We had a very warm welcome from the owners with a welcome pack of welsh cakes.

  Of all the properties we have stayed in this was by far the cleanest & well equipped, everything was to a high standard & very comfortable. A comfortable lounge with a clear large tv, well equipped kitchen with everything there which anyone could need, even alexa. A superb bathroom & great shower & the icing on the cake was the lovely patio with chairs, table, double swing seat & new paving. So much attention to detail. Lacking one thing & that is Sykes write up of the property which did not make plain that the bathroom was downstairs which can be problem for older less able people! In the same sentence it infers the bathroom is upstairs -Quote "Double bedroom in the eaves. This room has a chest of drawers for storing your personal belongings AND a shower room ---etc " I think you need to reword this so as not to mislead people.

  The cottage was spotlessly clean, reasonably sized except for the kitchen which was small, and for us had perfect minimalist decor.

  Kitchen is small and fridge is in the utility, making cooking a little awkward (a sharper kitchen knife would have been appreciated too). There's some lovely takeaways though - we enjoyed Dinos and East Eat in particular. On days weather permitted we are in the lovely contained garden with spot on dining set in a sun trap Parking is far from ideal. It's on street free for all parking, you're on a bend, next to a really confusing driveway next door (they have a drive but no stopped kerb to indicate start and end), on a narrow road with a driveway just along opposite. Having a washer drier was a fab facility, but the dryer function on didn't work very well, was incredibly loud and didn't seem to work! Overall, it was a lovely stay, but unless parking changes we'll look elsewhere next time we want to stay in the area.

  We had a brilliant weeks stay here but sadly it just wasn't long enough.

  Every last attention to detail was taken care of. There were plenty of toys provided for our 2 and a half year old granddaughter and even a nappy bin which was very useful with a 4 month old baby. Stair gates and travel cots provided also meant we didn't have to worry about accidents or bringing these items from home. Having a washer & dryer meant we didn't have mountains of washing to do at home after our holiday. The house is very clean and homely and in a perfect secluded spot, yet the coast and plenty of other attractions were very easily accessible by car. The hot tub was absolutely amazing and used every day for relaxing and star gazing in the evenings. We had a fantastic time and were spoilt by the all round views of rolling countryside. What a beautiful retreat, needless to say we have already booked for next year.
