"The property was amazing and beautifully furnished it had everything we needed."
11 of us stayed and there was plenty of room for us all. The garden patio had beautifull furniture and again plenty for us all. The only problem was that there was a leak from one of the bathrooms which came pouring through the kitchen light all over our things on the island worktop. The ceiling had a water stain which looks like it may have happened before. We did report this and a workman was sent out but was unable to do a repair immediately. We were asked not to use the shower in the bedroom above and as the main bathroom was next to that bedroom we didn't use that either in case it was part of the problem as they were so close together. The downstairs shower was freezing. This left only 2 showers between 11 of us to use. We also were asked not to use the main light in the kitchen due to the water having come through it.
Thanks for the feedback Irene, we are really pleased you loved the decor and garden area and we provided everything you needed. We really have tried to make Ysgol Fawr the perfect home from home. We are so sorry our builder was unable to fix the leak on the Sunday and had to come back the following morning, once the water had dried out, we tried our best to help there and then but unfortunately it wasn’t possible on this occasion. He has also checked the settings on the bootroom shower and this is now all in full working order. We have worked so hard on Ysgol Fawr and aim to offer the highest standards of accommodation but on the odd occasion things don’t work out we will do everything we can to rectify any issues. Thanks again for booking the school house! Property Owner

"Absolutely fabulous house."
It was warm, comfortable, spacious and beautifully decorated with high quality fittings and soft furnishings. Plenty of seating and crockery for our large group of 9 ladies on a walking weekend. Made use of the huge hall/boot room plus outside tap for our muddy boots (and dog). Beds super comfy and ample bathrooms also immaculate. Perfect house for a large social group, and the location is very convenient with pubs, supermarket and coastal path less than 1 mile away. There is nothing to fault, can’t wait to return x
Thanks so much for your lovely, in depth review…we really appreciate it. Sounds like a perfect weekend away for you and your friends! x Property Owner

"We had a wonderful stay at The Old School House celebrating my birthday."
Everything was perfect, comfortable and beautifully furnished. Attention to detail made it feel very homely. Plenty of room for all the family, very spacious and clean. We all said we would love to return in the future, especially the children who loved the table football. Kind regards, Heather. P. S. It would be very helpful if there were instructions for the heating, being of the older generation.
Thank you for the lovely review - we are really please you had a great stay with your family! We will be sure to add heating instructions to the welcome book…your feedback is much appreciated . We would love to welcome you back in the future! Property Owner
