"Lovely to be back."

All good but shower and loo seat need attention but I didn't want to give less stars. We'll be back.

"Beautiful little find!"

Middle of nowhere and perfect location.

"Great Holiday."

Lodge was as described and is a perfect hideaway for a family set in absolutely stunning surroundings. Owners were lovely hosts, greeting us when we 1st arrived with our welcome hamper of fresh eggs off the farm, milk and welsh cakes. Would recommend to others and the best way I would describe it would be at Glen View Farm you feel like you are in the middle of no-where and completely away from it all but you are no more than 15 minutes away from any amenities you need including some cracking pubs in the vicinity.

"Thank you for a wonderful stay in your lovely lodge."

The attention to detail on the facilities and the high quality furnishings are excellent. The lodge & farm are so peaceful with the friendliest farm animals and pets which were a pleasure to spend time with. Thank you for your hospitality.

"Perfect break in a lovely home."

Great comms with the owner who is on site but not in the way. Extremely clean and tidy; all mod cons, comfy beds, great shower pressure, loads of hot water and TV with all the extra channels. Lots of extras that made it like a home from home, ceiling window blinds, fresh linen and towels, good quality pots and pans etc and the clean hot tub was a massive bonus. Thanks for having it ready for us on arrival. We loved your animals, the dogs are gorgeous but we love the friendly sheep and chucks. The welcome basket was a nice touch, good to be able to make a cuppa and have shortbread when we arrived. Thank you for a great stay, we will book again.

"We had a relaxed and comfortable time with you, thank you so much."

Your lodge had everything we needed and you couldn’t do enough to make us comfortable. The welcome pack was an added surprise. The bed was just as I like it and the lodge was clean and fresh, just quite a few webs and spiders! It is a farm and to be expected I know. The only part that needs a replacement is the sofa but apart from that we loved our stay, especially the super clean hot tub. Will definitely come again.

there was no visitor book and i found it strange there was no mop or bucket or sweeping brush to keep the place clean I always take my own cleaning cloths and bleach.There seemed to be a lot of flies around maybe due to the hot weather used plenty of fly spray visited usk and found one of the best pub gardens ever The castle inn Liked the fact that you could get a basket meal for a fiver

"Beautiful little holiday home, lovely and clean."

Family was really friendly. Having the washing machine and a dishwasher was a godsend ! Beautiful been able to visit the animals. My little girl fell in love with the friendliest sheep in the world ! Only suggestion I have and they may have one but I couldn’t find it was a broom. I like to leave the holiday homes as tidy as possible .

"Lovely stay at bottom lodge."

Underfloor heating was a real bonus. Hosts were friendly and welcoming. Hosts decorated the lodge for my birthday and left goodies for us which was really kind and lovely surprise. Lots of lovely walking and farm shop is definitely worth a visit. There’s a Fantastic local pub nearby, takes 2 mins in car or if you like walking it takes about 20 mins. Throughly enjoyed my stay and will be returning.

"We had a wonderful stay at Bottom Lodge!"

The lodge is finished to a really high standard with all the mod cons you could possibly ever want or need. The underfloor heating in particular was a delight as we were staying during a cold spell! The beds were also super comfy with really high quality bedding. The location is wonderful with stunning views, and just a short walk/drive from Wentwood Forest which features lots of lovely picturesque walks. Hayley, Sherie and Simon were fantastic hosts and nothing was too much trouble for them! I would recommend Bottom Lodge without hesitation!
