• "We had the best week at Dolau."

  Plenty big enough for the eleven of us aged 2 to 68. The pictures of the property on the website do not do it justice. It was very comfortable, warm and fully stocked crockery, cutlery etc and everything worked. The games room and yard with play equipment was spot on for our grandchildren aged 2 to 10 and gave them all something to do. The house was so spacious - you could if you wanted get some piece and quiet! John was so welcoming on our arrival and popped in to ensure everything was ok. His mission was to make sure we were all happy and bringing an old electric car for the little ones and giving the big ones a ride on the quad bike herding the sheep was just the icing on the cake for them. Naomi was very helpful pre arrival letting us know when the house was ready. The family are obviously very proud of their farmhouse and this comes across not just in the standard of the property but their interactions with us as well. Would definitely visit again.

• "We are a family of 15 ranging from 1 to 50 and regularly book large properties so we can all spend time together."

  Dolau was one of the best it was clean and comfortable with lots of extra touches, toilet roll, hand soap, washing up bits, tea, coffee etc. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The table and lounge sat everyone something which can be lacking in some properties meaning we can’t all sit together. The games room was a hit with everyone from pool tournaments to games of badminton everything was there. Most places to visit are around an hours drive but the host John and his family provided us with lots of info before and during our stay so we could plan days out. There is a local pool 5 mins down the road which the children enjoyed. The house is so peaceful none of us wanted to leave and I am sure we will return in the future. Thankyou John for a lovely week.

  Thank you for your feedback. So pleased you all enjoyed your stay at Dolau and hopefully we shall meet again one day. John Property Owner

• "Photos do no justice to this absolutely beautiful house and grounds."

  Dolau Farmhouse has something for everyone! The house is very well equipped, from the the kitchen utensils to the games room (complete with an arcade machine),to Netflix, Disney and Prime on the TV! Special thanks John, who would made us feel at home and went out of his way to help make and outdoor firewood stove for our large crowd! We particularly enjoyed spending time outside playing family games of cricket, football & tennis, as well enjoying BBQ days and stargazing at night, all within the comfort of the grounds of Dolau. Even though we had a lot of sight seeing planned for the week, the group rarely felt like leaving the farmhouse, so we spent most of our time at home and it was perfect. Will definitely be returning!

• "On the whole we had a really lovely stay at the farmhouse, the location is beautiful."

  The house is spacious and has everything you need, the owners are very welcoming and accomodating - greeting in person on arrival, sending lots of information through via email prior to the stay and were also available via phone to answer any questions in the lead up to the stay. Facilities wise the 2 bins available are not enough for a week for a large group and we found the instructions regarding the waste a little confusing. The one thing I didn't feel was made clear enough was that the working farm aspect of the property includes a daily visit (sometimes two) from the owner; including one the night before we were due to leave checking that we were all packed and ready. Whilst this wasn't an issue for some of our party, it would personally put me off booking again.

• "The farmhouse was lovely, beautiful big old house."

  Exceptionally clean and brilliantly well equipped with everything you could possibly need for a large family holiday. The low ceiling into the kitchen caused a bit of an issue with 2 of my sons, who are 6 foot! But apart from them banging their heads a few times, it was perfect. Plenty of room for the 3 grandchildren to let of stream. John was wonderful, even let my 3 year old Grandson experience a Quad ride, loving life, sitting with his uncle! In fact all the men in the party had a go on it! The grandchildren especially loved seeing the sheep from the garden. We all had a lovely time, weather a bit it and miss but that was the only issue. Beautiful setting, beautiful house.

It's set in such beautiful surroundings with amazing walks and lampeter a ten minute drive away or if you fancy a nice stroll there is a little cost cutter and garage not far from the driveway, and what a gentleman John is, we thoroughly enjoyed his history lesson of dolau farm and he was so kind to the youngest of our group taking them on his quad bike and tractor which made our birthday boys birthday more special, we only have one critique and that is you could do with a second freezer as we felt that the one in situ wasn't sufficient enough, we have booked for next year already- we think we have found our yearly family holiday, thank you so so much John, olive, John & Naomi we look forward to returning.

A delicious chocolate cake, a huge bottle of milk together with coffee and tea was a welcome find at the end of our long journeys. We loved the dining table which enabled us to gather at the end of the day for our shared family meal. (party included 8 adults, 4 children and 1 toddler. There was loads of fridge and freezer space a good size washer and tumble dryer and a well worked dishwasher. There was also plenty of mugs, glasses, plates and cutlery so we never ran out. The children made good use of the yard which was the size of a small school playground. At the front was a beautifully kept lawned garden. Our 13 guests arrived in 4 cars and there was plenty of parking space for each of our vehicles. There was plenty of comfortable seating in the sitting room where the adults could flop at the end of a busy day. A lovely high chair and cot were available for our youngest member and we were all able to tumble into comfortable beds for a good nights rest. John, the owner, popped in to make sure we were all ok and there was nothing that we needed, also on hand with information for local attractions. All in all this was a superb holiday venue. We have stayed at various Sykes holiday cottages and have not always been in agreement with their grading finding a huge difference between the quality of one 5* property and another. With this property, however we totally agree with its rating. Well deserved and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to another large group in search of such accommodation. Well done Dolau House and al of you who worked so hard to make it the lovely place that it is.

The large dinning area seats 12 easily and is an asset in the large farmhouse kitchen, we all fell in love with its generous dimensions. There is a lot of outside space both grass and tarmac for the children to run and play ball games in between outings. On our day of arrival our journey was diverted due to a motorcycle accident, I had a Tesco delivery booked and it contained most of what we needed to feed the family. When I phoned the owners they drove the 2 miles from Lampeter to the house to wait for the delivery and then put the food in the fridge and cupboard. This was above and beyond the care and attention that a renter can hope for from a property owner. Thank you so much. thank you also for the welcome package that awaited us when we finally arrived.

Everything was fresh and clean, and there were even many comments about the beautiful flowers on the dining room table! Little touches really do make a difference! There is so much I could say about our experience so I will bullet point to save the waffle: * Naomi spent time sending us a list of recommended places to go before we arrived - this was useful * great spacious rooms * great shower on 1st floor * great kitchen appliances, enough cutlery and crockery - even the knives were sharp!! * dining room table fitted 12 adults and 7 children! * great outdoor space - bikes were used a lot!! So much more to say.. a real gem! Local to a lovely town and great place for a local walk - which was suitable for all ages and abilities! We had a great week, thanks to all at Dolau - Naomi, John, Olive and the amazing team who are there on the Saturday to turn everything around for the next lot of residents! Just some feedback to Sykes: I rated accuracy of listings the highest, however Sykes cottage do need to update their website as they reference more rooms than there is - this led us and the host confused. We had to request the 2 single beds in one room to be zipped up to make a double (as we thought we had enough doubles with a spare room to be singles), however we were a double bed short. Although, the hosts were straight on it and back around rejigging the furniture! They could not have been more accommodating! Oh and I nearly forgot to mention.. one of the little ones left a beloved toy behind, Naomi was straight on it and sent it back to the rightful owner. Certainly made a little one happy! Thank you!!

• "The farm house was perfect for our family holiday."

  Big enough for everyone to have space but also to be together. The kitchen dining table is lovely big enough for everyone to sit down for meals together, Dolau house is a fantastic house for family get together's. The owner of the property John checked on us regularly and gave us driving instructions to Pembury park which was a wonderful day out for all at a beautiful beach. Anything we needed was there the next day, Dolau House was clean well equipped and a delight to stay in, the games room was a big hit with everyone and with wonderful weather we could not have asked for anything else to make this holiday anymore perfect, would highly recommend Dolau House.

• "Dolau Farmhouse was really lovely."

  Wonderful big house with lots of room for people to come together or get away from each other as they wanted. The games room was very popular with the younger members of the family! Thank you for a lovely stay.

• "The owners of this house could not be more welcoming and accommodating."

  We stayed over Easter and they had decorated the house in Easter decorations, and left chocolate eggs for the kids and a chocolate cake as well. They were extremely helpful and answered all our questions about the house ensuring our stay was comfortable. The house itself is absolutely beautiful and very well equipped. We will definitely be coming back!

• "Just returned from a 2 night stay for a family 50th birthday and everything could not have been more perfect."

  The house is wonderful, clean and well equipped. It was more than big enough for 14 of us and although we spent a lot of time in doors we were not on top of each other. The owners are friendly and accommodating and had left a cake and card for the birthday girl of the family. Nothing seemed too much trouble for them. I would highly recommend booking this house, it really was lovely and we hope to book again in the near future.

• "The Farmhouse was absolutely wonderful exactly like the pictures and was beautifully clean."

  The interior and decor exceeded our expectations and the fantastic kitchen with a table to seat everyone was ideal. The owners were most helpfull prior to our holiday contacting us and accomodating our requests re cots etc. The little touches on our arrival were a delight a welcome card, cake, fruitbowl and flowers, it felt like a home from the minute we walked through the door. The directions to finding the property were excellent as were all the helpful tips i.e. how to get a food delivery from the local supermarket. The location close to the coast is excellent with so many lovely beaches to choose from. I would strongly recommend this property to anyone wanting to book for a large family gathering or party of friends.
