"Beautiful setting lovely hosts will definitely return"

"I really enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the property and being a lone traveller appreciated the family being next door, their welcome and friendliness and the general activity of the working farm."
The holiday cottage was comfortable and roomy, with wonderful views. The only downside was the slighlty damp smell in the bedroom and bathroom.

"Very enjoyable stay."
Hosts are very welcoming and would definantly recommend to someone looking for peaceful accommodation. Good access to mountain bike trails and right on-top of Revolution Bike Park. Would love to stay again.
-
"A wonderfully quiet place to spend at least a week exploring North and Central Wales."
Nice and welcoming owners on a working farm in a tiny village surrounded on all sides by hills. During the day some disturbance by motorbikers testing their skills on the narrow and winding country lanes, but at night an absolutely quiet paradise. Lots of animals (chickens, cats, pheasants, birds), all of which are amazingly tame and trusting. If you sit out in the resting area around midnight to do all the stargazing you can't in a city/urban area, one of the cats will find you within minutes and demand cuddling.
-
"Excellent location."
The host was really helpful and friendly. The little one really enjoyed playing with the cat and the chicken. Would love to come back.
-
"Very comfortable cottage with everything we needed, including the weather!"

-
"Easy booking process via Sykes online; all went as stated."
Pleasant, well presented cottage with lots of space for two in lovely area on working farm (cattle/sheep). Host Riahn and family very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Access to accommodation through farm yard but not a problem - plenty of parking space. Well located for exploring the area. A very peaceful, quiet spot with lovely views. A very short drive or 9/10 minute walk to Penybontfawr village, but no footpath for most of the walk and little grass verge in places. Small but well stocked shop in village. Village pub, The Station Inn, good pub food and very welcoming landlord/lady.

-
"Sykes did what I would expect - no more, no less."
The cottage was superb and Rhian is the perfect host. It has everything you need and the location is perfect with great views from the cottage and the outdoor seating area. Slight mark down on comfort only because we would prefer a bigger bed but, other than that, ideal.
-

"Ideal location away from the tourist hot spots."
Lovely and peaceful farm set on the hillside above the village with ideal views down the valley. Friendly and helpful owners... will definitely like to stay again just so we can try the home-made pies on offer.
-
"I was quite concerned about staying in any cottage in light of the current situation with Covid."
But as soon as I spoke to the owner and stepped into the cottage I was happy. The house was spotless, sofas and especially the bed very comfortable. Clean crockery and cutlery. Nothing looked like it had been there for years (except the beautiful antique Welsh Dresser!) or bought from a second hand shop, it was obvious the owner had gone out of her way to make the cottage look good. We would definitely recommend.
-
"Good location and lovely views."
Hosts met us on arrival and were friendly and very helpful throughout our stay. Basket in bathroom with bubble bath and extra towels etc was a welcome addition as were the welsh cakes. Good location for walking and close to plenty of attractions.

"Great holiday, unfortunately another couple arrived 2hrs after us to discover it was double booked by another website but that was not the fault of the owner or Sykes."
Apart from that it was perfect from start to finish
-
"Wonderfully quiet location."
Owners regularly feed birds which can be seen close up.
-
"There was a much appreciated welcome tray when we arrived withtea/coffe, milk &some wonderful welsh cakes."
The cottage was very well stocked with everything we needed & the owners, who lived next door were very nice & helpful. The views were breathtaking & also the abundance of wildlife we saw from the window. We will definitely return there & I would recommend it to anyone who wants a “quiet get away from it” break.

"A well equiped and comfortable annexe to the main farm house that provides an ideal retreat for exploring the area."
There is plenty of good walking country and attractive landscape. The steep driveway into the farmyard, from the main road, could be daunting for nervous drivers, but there is ample turning space in the farmyard, and parking adjacent to the holiday cottage. Wifi surprising good for such a rural area. The farm owners were welcoming and promptly dealt with all questions, etc. A most enjoyable stay.
