  • "We had a lovely time."

    Very comfortable and extremely clean. The only tiny thing was there was no casserole dish to cook with. Luckily, we bought one for a fiver at Lidl.

  • "Lovely property in which me and my two friends came to visit!"

    The location is very much “in the middle of no where” and the nearest town with shops is 30 minutes away so if you are looking to relax, make sure to bring your own food or arrange for a Tesco delivery. It was a beautiful place and the air feels very fresh. The only thing is that there would be more items available such as washing up powder, and a sponge to clean our plates (more the pans that don’t go in the dishwasher)! The Netflix stopped working on the second night so we resorted to watching the olympics instead, so maybe a guide on how to use the TV would be appreciated. The fridge had a little carton of milk, eggs were provided and a bottle of bubbly (thank you). The owners were very patient whilst we were late checking out and they did not make a fuss so we really appreciated that we were not rushed to leave. Thanks so much, very lovely stay!!!

    There is only one thing that I personally think could make it better and that would be to put a large corner sofa in there that's the only think that could improve it but still a 10/10 for us

  • "Lovely property with great views, the hot tub was a plus for star gazing."

    Dogs loved it too. Only downside was the grass could have been cut before hand but I understand it had been raining quite a lot so may not have been possible. WIFI cut out a few days after we arrived, however Lin was great and said we could use the empty property next door whenever we liked which was lovely of her to offer this. Welcome pack was a lovely surprise so Thank you. Would recommend to people looking for down time and lovely walks. Overall we had a lovely stay.

  • "The property itself is pristine and a lovely place to stay, with one of the comfiest beds we’ve slept it!"

    The views are beautiful, especially from the hot tub. The only suggestions we would have are: 1. The Wi-Fi can be rather slow (but appreciate the location is quite far removed!) 2. The ability to turn off the fence light - the hot tub at night is a great way to see a starry night with the lack of light pollution, but the fence light diminishes that ability, and there’s no way of turning it off (that we could see).

  • "A great holiday in a superb location."

    1 Beacon View Barn is a spotlessly clean and comfortable bungalow set in a gloriously remote and rugged valley. Relaxing in the hot tub after a day's walking was a huge pleasure. Happy to report that the shower is also very good. The property's isolated location is blissfully quiet, but it does mean you'll need a car for the 'local' shop and excellent nearby pubs. We enjoyed some great hill walks right from the door and also further afield. Lin and James were very accommodating hosts and the welcome pack was much appreciated.

    It was set in beautiful surroundings and waking up to wonderful scenery and sounds of sheep was great. Our holiday was at the end of November/early December and we were lucky that the weather was wonderful and waking up to a sprinkling of snow one morning was lovely. Sitting in the hot tub on cold evenings was an added bonus and on our last night sitting in it while a heavy snow blizzard was happening was delightful. We arrived after Storm Arwen which caused a few problems with the power but we were kept up to date by the owners who were lovely and sorted out a few problems which were caused by the power failure straight away. All in all a lovely holiday and will return for another stay.

    The Cottage and garden were spotless, Lin, the lady who runs the places was so helpful and could not do enough for us, and what’s more she is happy to deal with anything you want or require at any time day or night. The WiFi is limited to 25Gb for seven days which is more than enough unless you want to stream video’s etc, the download speed is around 15 to 20Mbs which again is very good and more than enough, my wife and I used about 4Gb in the first week. There is no mobile signal or 3 or 4G, however WiFi Calling worked fine. The large flatscreen TV in the Living Room is a smart TV, we brought a small USB Hard Drive with Movies on which worked fine for the evenings. There is a Freeview box as well as DVD player and to top it all about 30 Movie DVD’s provided for you to watch if you wish. As far as we are concerned you could not wish for more, oh by the way the hot tub just outside the door is spot on and the garden is FULLY ENCLOSED so if you have a dog he will be well safe and not able to escape. WELL DONE LIN

    1 Beacon View Barn in July. It’s in an idyllic spot, where the only noise you can hear is the occasional sheep bleating & the view is just stunning from the front of the property. The barn is beautifully decorated, with comfy seating, big wardrobes, high ceilings and a great rainfall shower. The kitchen was really well equipped (better than ours at home I think!) & the welcome basket with prosecco, eggs and dog treats was a lovely touch. The garden is safely enclosed which was great for our dog – she loved sitting on the patio staring at the sheep in the fields. Lin & James (the owners) came & introduced themselves & made sure we knew how to contact them if needed. They’re very friendly & have lots of advice about places to walk & eat which is great if you don’t know the area – there is also a good supply of maps and tourist attraction leaflets in the barn. There are some good walks you can do from the doorstep and it’s only a short drive to some nice towns & pubs. We had a great time exploring during the days, then relaxing in the hot tub sipping wine in the evenings looking at the view. We only stayed for a week but felt so relaxed and recharged by the time we headed home, we’re already starting to plan our next visit!
