"Loved the cottage and the setting ."
The owner Catherine was very welcoming and had time to chat to two ' old codgers ' .We would certainly recommend it to anyone who likes to be off the beaten track.

"We had a wonderful welcome and stay from Catherine and Lilly"

"Beautiful barn conversion, on a lovely small farm, with every need anticipated."
The access to the property was challenging on first arrival, but once we found our way via the various rugged tracks and lanes, it was fine. As previous visitors have commented, if you have a low chassis vehicle, leave it at home! The property is in a remote location surrounded by stunning scenery and provides a relaxing retreat, but still accessible to the amenities and attractions of the area. Catherine was a welcoming host and the hens, geese, and Tilly the dog were great neighbours.

"We went away to have a peaceful and relaxing week, this is exactly what we got."
The cottage has everything that you need and is very comfortable. The surroundings are very tranquil, there are a few animals running around chickens, geese, cats and a very lovely dog called Lily. it was a pleasure to see them every day.

"A quaint cottage in rural Wales and we had a lovely time!"
The cottage was very well equipped, making it easy to feel right at home. The comfy bed was a delight after a day of exploring, and we loved waking up to beautiful views of the countryside. It was a bonus to have a friendly dog and even some chickens wandering around, adding to the rustic charm. However, a couple of things to note: there were some ants in the room and shower, so a bit of extra care might be needed there (but I imagine this was a one off and was quickly seen to). Also, be aware that the location is quite remote — charmingly so! — but you might want to avoid taking an older car down the narrow lanes leading to the cottage and around the area in general. All in all, a great spot for a peaceful retreat if you’re prepared for a bit of adventure!

"Myself and my partner had the most wonderful stay."
Everything was perfect. Being in that location did us the world of good. We did some great walks also took the bikes out. The barn is beautiful and super comfy and had everything we needed. Catherine was a fantastic host and we loved being around the animals. We’re booking again for December! Thank you for having us!

"We had a wonderful week stay, the cottage is beautiful and has everything you could need."
Unfortunately we didn't have the weather to use the balcony much but the view was lovely. I personally loved having the animals near by. The welcome pack is very thoughtful (eggs were delicious) The only thing to note and this is not a negative is the road to the property is very narrow and rough so if you want to come in a fancy low sports car you will struggle. Overall we would definitely return.

-
"Had a great relaxed week."

"Lovely cottage."
Well maintained and with everything we needed. Very quiet location with chickens, ducks and geese. Owner, Catherine, lives in the main house on site and was an amazing host. Left us alone to enjoy our holiday but was always there if we needed anything.

Catherine is a brilliant host. The location is just as described, which is just what we wanted.

"Had a great week here, very comfortable, clean cottage in peaceful surroundings."
Friendly owner and nice essentials pack on arrival. Lovely place to relax and watch the world go by, and the antics of the farmyard ducks and geese keep you amused. Local area is very picturesque with lots of places to visit.
-
"Comfy cottage with all you would require"

"Really clean well equipped cottage."
Everything you need. Peace and quiet nothing but the sound of the birds, animals and the wind in the trees. Great welcome pack. Would recommend.
-
"What a wonderful place to stay."
Such a friendly comfortable place that was so peaceful especially for nature lovers. It was great to meet all the pets from Lilly the dog, the cats, ducks, chickens, geese and Guinea fowl. Many thanks for the lovely fresh goose, duck and chicken eggs, butter and cider. We would highly recommend a stay here and we plan to come back. Also we recommend visits to The Big Pit, Botanic Gardens and Picton Castle and If you like walking, pop in to Abergorlech for a walk up and through the forest where there are three walks from easy to more challenging.
-
"If you want peace and quiet in a beautiful setting, then this is the place to be!"
The cottage is tastefully furnished and extremely well equipped. We received a wonderful welcome from the owner and her dog Lily, and the freshly laid eggs were delicious! The view from the decking at the rear of the property is stunning and also offers the opportunity to watch the red kites and the Redstart nesting next door. We absolutely loved it and we will definitely be going again.
-
"Brilliant cottage in a pretty setting."
Catherine is a great host and Lily the dog is delightful, Would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.

.....

"Wonderful cottage, very well presented and finished, one of the nicest we have stayed at."
Owner very friendly , much appreciated the goose eggs, made a lovely huge omelette! Access over the track was a little rough but the advert made that very clear so not a problem, intact just made it feel more rural. Would certainly recommend this as a great place to stay.
-
"Lovely people, location and cottage."
Private and peaceful. Exactly what we wanted.
-
"A beautiful cottage in a lovely rural setting."
You will be made extremely welcome by Catherine, the owner and Lily the Spinone who is so very friendly. Plenty to do and see with a comprehensive guide to the locality available at the cottage. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cosy and well appointed cottage with every comfort to hand. Diolch yn fawr.
-
"We has a wonderful time at this cosy cottage."
It was clean, smelt amazing, well equipped and comfortable. The decking would have been lovely if only the weather had been conducive to sitting out there. Lovely views and so peaceful. After a long journey the goodies were much appreciated Catherine as were the delicious warm Welsh cakes so thank you very much. And thank you Lily for the waggy welcomes and the occasional company. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this accommodation to anyone wanting something well off the beaten track in beautiful surroundings.

"A lovely location for a quiet getaway break."
Wales is very pretty.
-

"Lovely comfortable spacious property with everything you need."
Remote peaceful location but not far from main routes and central to most places, the coast and the Brecons. Friendly owner who is nearby for any enquiries. Good value for such high standards and beautiful surroundings.
-
"While having enjoyed our stay at Golwg Las, there was one aspect of the property that I don't think Sykes pointed out adequately in their description - the more than a mile of unmade road leading to the property."
As older guests, we found negotiating all the ruts and potholes very uncomfortable, and were even put off going out by the thought of it. I think it is only fair that an accurate description is put in the details.
-
"This is a wonderful secluded cottage surrounded by lush countryside."
Caroline was great and Lily the dog very welcoming. The standard of the cottage is very high and to have some welcome gifts was great. All in all and brilliant place that we would recommend to all.
Lily and I are so glad you enjoyed yourselves in our cottage and that you found our location just what you were looking for in your holiday. Many thanks for your kind comments. Property Owner

"Lovely cottage - broadband speed like lightning."
Track up to cottage requires some navigating to avoid crashing sump on raised central portion. Perfectly do able though just drive slowly to one side and avoid the sheep. views from balcony amazing. Load of how water and a super comfortable bed, what more can you ask for
So glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, the track is a little bumpy and I'm glad you realised its part of living nearly off grid!! The sheep and lambs are so lovely and they do help us to unwind and relax. Glad to hear you liked the balcony, the views are lovely and it is something special. Thank you for your kind comments x Property Owner

"We had a wonderful week staying at Gowlg las, we had been advised by Catherine to use the What3words app for directions and it took us straight to the front door !"
A nice touch to be given fresh eggs with butter & milk in the fridge & the homemade warm Welsh cakes Catherine bought over were delicious, the accommodation was well furnished with a comfy sofa & bed and a large bathroom also great hillside views from the decked veranda, there was a good WiFi internet and tv reception , we would definitely like to make a return visit in the future, Alan & Catherine were great hosts

"We booked this holiday as a break after lockdown."
So glad we did .Fantastic place everything we needed Catherine our host brought us some Welsh cake on our arrival and eggs and butter in the fridge. Follow Catherine's instructions how to get there as some sat navs take you the wrong way. Great place to relax and explore mid Wales. Chris &Steve East Yorkshire.

"If wanting peace and tranquility this is the place ."
Outstanding accommodation ,comfortable and hosts very welcoming . A glorious part of Wales views from the cottage were great .Plenty of walks close by (boots a must).Local towns a short drive away offering great food. Hopefully will have a return visit.
-
"Instructions on location were awful, used sat nav and google maps ,but the owner agreed when given copies of Sykes printout that it was bad."
Apparently when my son found me I should have used Google Earth or the map cordinates which is more precise .But I was not told that. The reason I could not stay was no mobile phone reception. My son did a test and found strength was extremely low. Being old and alone I felt afraid to be in such a remote place with no contact. So I came home. Better directions and tell people no mobile phone reception !!
The guest has raised the issue with us the day he arrived on Sunday 3rd October & I said I would be able to contact Dyfed Telecom the next day when their offices were open. However the guest decided to leave on 4th October & unfortunately only told us of his decision once he had left. We have spent in excess of £1000 installing a satellite internet/phone system in our cottages which we have recently acquired. The issue was with EE & the mast that they use which needed repairs and was out of our control. I did contact the guest & ask him if his son could forward me the details of the test to pass on but I received no reply. The fault has been reported & can be rectified. I would like to point out that under normal circumstances both phone & internet coverage is good. We feel saddened that the guest could not remain longer & enjoy Golwg Las. Directions to the property now include What3words "nightfall.eating.wicket", Google Maps & written instructions to assist in finding our secluded spot Property Owner

"A very peaceful and relaxing break in a superb location."

-
"We stayed here as a last minute booking."
We were met by Catherine with some homemade Welsh cakes on arrival, which were delicious. She made sure we had everything we needed. The cottage itself is lovely, with a balcony from the living space to enjoy when the nice weather. The kitchen was very well equipped. A comfy new sofa and dining table in the lounge. A huge bathroom with really good shower. Would definitely recommend to friends.
