  • "He home itself was beautiful and the location was perfect so peaceful and exactly what we wanted, all the amenities that you want and need."

    The cleanliness of the home could have been much better, the previous guests had had some sort of celebration and there was still evidence of discarded balloons and confetti all over the home, we had to get the hot tub checked as we found the water to be cloudy and quite smelly this meant we didn’t use it as much as we would have liked, the owners did come and put more chlorine in and offered to empty the hot tub for us. Whilst i understand the home is on a farm the amount of cobwebs when we arrived were everywhere a quick brush of the ceilings on change over would quickly sort these out and possibly eliminate the amount of spiders. The cooker in my opinion needs looking at it took us 1 hour and 20 minutes to cook some oven chips there were no real clear instructions for the cooker so we had to google them and even though we were using the correct settings it was still operating poorly, the extraction fan when switched on sounded like I was on the runway of an airport so again I think that needs replacing or looked at. Whilst we don’t expect perfection these small things would have actually made the home perfect. The home is a beautiful home in the most picturesque setting and these little tweaks would definitely have made our stay perfect. Would I recommend and stay again yes absolutely.

    We are sorry you seemed to find fault with the cottage over your stay. I disagree with the statement that there were balloons and confetti everywhere. Granted you did find some glitter confetti under a rug which clearly had been missed but the whole cottage was thoroughly cleaned. The hot tub had been changed fresh water for your stay as it is with every guest. The water did become slightly cloudy on your first night but as we explained fake tan will react with the water making it cloudy. We don’t expect guests to eat or drink whilst using the hot tub as this will affect the water as well. . We did offer to change the water again for you however you declined this. It was such a pity you couldn’t work the cooker properly had you asked us at the time we would have explained how the oven worked correctly. We pride ourselves in ensuring all our cottages are cleaned and maintained to a high standard. Property Owner

    Julie and Gareth have done a great job, and couldn't help more when we had the power outages after an exciting 4hr long thunder and lightning storm. I would recommend lower pentre to anyone. I will most certainly be back.

    ! We traveled from Cheshire and absolutely loved every single minute of our commute and our break - we saw the most beautiful scenery, the best sunset and the biggest moon from a clear starry sky. The timing of our stay meant we were surrounded by gorgeous lambs too! The house is beautifully decorated and has absolutely everything you need for a comfortable stay, it’s so well equipped and the owners Julie and Gareth are wonderful. Our children spent a ridiculous amount of time in the hot tub - such an addition to the property! Thank you so much for a perfect pre-Easter break - we loved it x

    The house exceeded our expectations. Very modern but in keeping with a farm/cottage feel. The surroundings are breath taking and situated in a very rural location. We enjoyed the privacy it offered and peace. Our three young children loved it and the freedom it offered. The hot tub was a big hit for all! The house was well equipped, from having cling film, kitchen towel to salt and pepper in the kitchen! Plenty of dishes and utensils....well thought out. Stunning attractions near by and I would highly recommend the Elan Valley as a must. The town of Llandrindod is also lovely with a great park and lake. Loads of places to explore and have picnics. We will most definitely be back and may persuade friends to join as it's possible to book all 3 properties together. Fantastic holiday, thank you/ Diolch
