Dinas Island Cottage

• "Lovely place in a lovely location."

  We appreciated the fact that, despite living next door, the owner mainly just left us in peace to enjoy our holiday. The only minor niggle is that we never managed to work out how to control the central heating!

• "Overall a Lovely situation and very peaceful place to stay."

  Ignore the satnav as this takes you down a tiny road that is playing Russian Roulette with any traffic. Use the directions as given by the site. Beach and coastal path was unspoilt. Good stopping off point to take day visits to local towns and shopping. Internet has a good speed and unsecured. Dogs need to be kept on a lead outside of the house. Beds soft and warm. This is a working farm. Was 4 star 16 years ago and now shows signs of being rather tired. Washing lines available and adjoining garden. Power shower needs to be left to run before adjusting as it takes time to warm up and then gets hotter (fine for anyone with patience and understanding of fluid heat transfer in a powershower). Plenty of Towels provided. TV, Fridge and small freezer provided. shortcomings: Washing up machine still had chicken and olives in the bottom of the machine from previous users - no tablets provided (I had to clean the filter and previous users not used tablets so plates etc not properly clean! - we brought our own tablets and cleaning kit.). Bathroom taps need update or maintenance as cold tap needs to be carefully turned off or it will be left running by children. Mould in shower cubicle and bathroom outside wall needs attention. Hot water takes time to arrive at kitchen sink but very hot on arrival. Hot chocolate powder provided was three years out of B.B. date! Sugar bowl was left empty except for encrusted with tea hardened sugar crystals. Sofas and seats need to be replaced as they are all with collapsed seating needing cushions but fine if you can play about with said cushions and you don't have back issues. summary: We loved it because for us it is you could expect with less spiders for this part of the world in an old farm house conversion and in this price bracket and was better than others we have stayed at. Large master bedroom with bunk beds next door. Need a good condition car to drive up the hills, or 4x4.

• "Cottage needs a very good deep clean."

  Shower is dangerous either stone cold or scalding! First cottage I have been to with Sykes where there were not any condiments or cleaning materials, probably why it is so dirty. Fantastic location, pity the cottage let the holiday down….wouldnt go back to this cottage!

• "The cottage is in a beautiful spot within walking distance of two lovely beaches."

  The people who run it are very friendly. However, we were disappointed with the condition of the property which is not reflected accurately in the photos on the website. The fixtures and fittings have clearly not been updated for a long time and the property was only surface clean.

  Fine as a base for a few days from which to explore the local area. Proprietor friendly and helpful.

• "A perfect holiday, absolutely perfect location with fantastic hosts."

  Not perfect if you are looking for comfort and amenities, but for us the location overshadows everything. Definitely hope to turn.
