"This is one of the best cottages we’ve stayed at and we will be going back again."
There is only one very very small request. It would be useful if you could provide a small towel in the kitchen not just a tea towel. As I said this is something very small and certainly wouldn’t stop us coming back another year.

"Woodpecker Barn is ideal family accommodation in a wonderful location where you are made very welcome by Tim & Sally."
The barn conversation has been beautifully completed to a very high standard and contains all the facilities you would require.
An added bonus is the lovely garden area, where you can relax just watching a large variety of birds feeding
including Woodpeckers !
Would definitely recommend Woodpecker Barn for a family stay.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Woodpecker Barn."
The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. The secure garden was a bonus, we loved sitting on the patio watching the birds every day and not having to worry about our dog escaping was lovely. The Barn although in a rural setting is perfect for exploring South Wales, we did lots of day trips and enjoyed the, all. The barn is well equipped, very clean and the fittings are of a high standard. We would definitely stay again and will recommend to others. Thank you for a lovely relaxing break.

"Absolutely wonderful cottage."
Immaculately clean - which is rare for a lot of dog friendly cottages. The farm is wonderful and peaceful. It was lovely watching the Woodpeckers on the bird feeder. The weather wasn’t kind to us but the spacious cottage made sure we were comfortable being inside all day.
We brought our 8 month old baby with us and the main bedroom had so much space that it made it so much easier to navigate bath times, bedtime etc. The cot was a brilliant size and our daughter was super comfy every night. Tim and Sally are wonderful hosts and we will definitely be rebooking!

Spacious, well equipped & spotlessly maintained. Extra bonus for dog owners is having access to empty, securely fenced fields straight from the door, as well as local walks. What really makes the difference is how friendly and helpful Sally & Tim are - even driving our son & his partner to the local train station when needed. They invite suggestions for improvement in the visitors book but we struggled to come up with any!

Open plan space and gorgeous farmhouse/ country kitchen with everything you could need. They even had a dishwasher there.
