"We booked as a place to stay whilst some essential work was being completed on a property we purchased within walking distance."
Huw the owner was fantastic and it really helped that this property truly is a home from home with everything you would expect and much more. The bedrooms are huge, the kitchen is amazing and the WiFi is fantastic. The laundry room was a big help too. Everything with this property is to an extremely high standard.

"Absolutely beautiful house, perfect for a big family holiday!"
We had a baby, a toddler, two dogs and 9 adults in our party. The house is beautifully furnished and we couldn't really fault anything. The only issue we had was that there was an ironing board but no iron! Luckily we had brought one from home but to future holidaymakers, you may like to note this. Huw the owner of the property was on hand very easily for any help or advice. Lovely, friendly guy who is clearly very proud of his holiday home. We enjoyed seeing the horses everyday too. Shame about the very mixed weather but we had an absolutely lovely family holiday and would gladly visit again. Thank you Huw

"We were really impressed with the cleanliness and the space and the well stocked kitchen."
But we did have a few things needing attention.There was a big problem with non existent wifi,we were all needing it ,this is why we booked in the first place,this did put a very big damper on our stay,Also the beds were too low and mattresses were not very comfy.Other issues were simple maintenance that should have been checked.Our host was a very nice man ,but a little long winded sorting things out.
Thank you for choosing the Grooms Quarters for your break and taking time to report valued feedback which we take seriously for continued improvement , I am pleased you found the property clean and spacious and a well stocked kitchen but disappointed to hear that the beds were not to your liking, I point out that they are all higher end quality and are all standard height, I am aware that the internet did not work as it should this was due to a BT issue outside my control , this has now been rectified and is working great.

"Grooms Quartrers is the best accommodation that my family of ten have stayed in."
It was large comfortable, and everything worked well. Hew the owner was on hand. The weather could have been better One criticism , five o clock entry on first day is a bit mean, however I would highly recommend this property. Regards Ben 2/08/24 to 9/08/24

"A beautiful property in a beautiful location."
Both owner and neighbours very helpful and friendly.

"There were nine adults staying for a week and we all the had a fabulous time."
Huw the owner was there to greet us on arrival day and we saw him quite a few times about the farm and he told us about the Amman Valley Trotting Club and so we had a lovely afternoon watching the racing! The house was a dream to stay in and there was plenty of room for us all as the place was huge. We also made use of the bar-b-que and the outside eating area when the sun was out! Everything was clean and the furniture and fittings were of a very high standard.

"This property is just an absolute dream!"
Everything about it was just incredible. Kids loved having the freedom of playing outside and seeing the horse's. Neighbours were lovely and dropped some delicious home made éclairs around to us and they were great with the kids. Beautiful beach within a 40 minute drive and local tesco just a couple minutes drive away. Local park with water splash park for the little ones was good fun. Enjoyed a mystery adventure guide around Cardiff which is about an hour away which was enjoyed by all and a quick stop in Barry so the kids could enjoy the fun fair. Overall the property has great location if you don't mind driving a little. Much enjoyed holiday in an absolutely beautiful house.

"Beautiful house very well equipped with everything we needed could have done with a decent pair of scissors though"

"To access the property you have to have a fob to get through the gates."
The owner let us in on our first arrival. We spent Christmas week in Grooms quarters. It is huge. There was a nice christmas tree though we also bought our own fairy lights for the sitting room. The kitchen is well stocked and we could do lots of cooking and baking with ease. Only had to buy a food blender. Lots of tea towels and towels were available. Big double fridge and freezer was big enough for food and drink for 8. Tescos was close by. The place was warm and underfloor heating lovely. It was the five bathrooms and bedrooms that sold it to us as we are three families staying there. There are large crates for two dogs which i thought was great though I don't have a dog myself. The washer and dryer was well used. There are plenty of walks direct from the property though it pretty much rained all week so we were not out all that long each day. The only thing not to my taste was the old fashioned bedding, bedroom chairs and big red sofa which were like something out of an old people's home but we moved the furniture around which helped it feel more cosy. The owner rather read us the riot act about being clean and leaving it as found it which to be honest rather perplexed and annoyed me as I would not have done otherwise. But i guess they have had bad experiences before. That said I would stay there again in a heartbeat. The positives far far outweighed any negatives.

"Great place to stay for family get togethers, the property is huge and very well maintained ."
Huw (the owner) is very accomodating and was genuinely pleased to help on the odd occasions when we needed advice. Would thoroughly recommend this property.
-
"We had a great stay at the Grooms Quarters (6 adults."
2 teens and 1 dog). The welcome was excellent, with a tour of the property and the facilities it has. The house is completed to a high spec, which was lovely at making our stay so comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped with everything that we could have needed throughout our stay. For example, we would usually bring our own wok and slow cooker, as most properties do not provide these from our experience. However, we were pleasantly surprised to find large pans, slow cooker and more at the property! The owner really has thought of everything to make your stay perfect. The views are amazing and so quiet.

"Absolutely 5 star."
This property was perfect for our family holiday comprising of three generations, it is very spacious and immaculately presented. The rooms are very comfortable. I have booked a lot of properties through Sykes and this was definitely one of the best. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you need to cook a meal for a large group. The owner is very welcoming and helpful, always on hand of needed. The great views from the property are a bonus.
-
"We enjoyed our stay here very much, and would recommend this terrific house."
We had 9 people plus a baby, and the bedroom/bathroom layout meant that everyone was catered for, and the large lounge and kitchen were ideal for family time. Our host Huw was really helpful and it was a pleasure to watch him with the horses each day.
-
"Excellent house for the two families and Huw was a pleasure to talk to especially as he was interested in following our nephews future rugby career."
House huge, even though we spent most of the time in the kitchen socialising. Bedrooms also huge and great to have the large number of bathrooms. Would def book again.
-
"This property was very clean, modern and comfortable."
It exceeded my expectations and the host was very friendly and helpful. I've been to many cottages but I have to say, this is by far the best place I've stayed in. I will definitely recommend this property to others and hope to visit again soon.
-
"We had a fantastic time, the house was absolutely amazing."
There were 5 grown up couples in our group and there was loads of room for all of us, the house is huge. My absolute only criticism would be lack of kitchen equipment, could have done with a jug or similar for the microwave, a decent frying pan and some decent pans. (I know lots of people don't cook when they go away) I cooked a full english breakfast for 10 of us and it was a challenge. But, honestly, it would not stop us going again, in fact we probably will. It was wonderful.
-
"A stunning property with excellent facilities, 4 families shared the property (8 adults 2 children 7 and 11 and a 4 month old baby) with plenty of room for everyone."
Well situated for exploring the surrounding countryside and beaches. Huw the owner was welcoming and on hand for any problems or queries, of which there were none.
-
"Fantastic South Wales base, so much space and fantastic views with very friendly neighbours."
-
"Huw was a brilliant host; he was very welcoming and made us feel at home."
Nothing was too much trouble and he helped us when needed. The house was fantastic! Really spacious and comfortable for a large family group of 9. We consisted of a family of 5 plus both sets of grandparents so it was brilliant to have 2 huge en-suite rooms for the grandparents and then the third floor for the kids. The children loved the huge bath (6 year old could swim in it!) and the fact that all the bedrooms had tvs in them! They especially loved the fact that they had Netflix in every room too. We were extremely lucky with the weather and had great days out on the beaches of the Gower. We also visited Llyn Llech Owain country park, the mumbles, fed the red kites and went to Dinefwr castle. We also walked along the river in Ammanford. There were things that we would have liked to have done but they weren’t open in February and we have all said that we would definitely visit this area again. Would 100% recommend.

"The Grooms Quarters is a beautiful property, the photo's on here really don't do it justice."
The facilities are superb, with very modern bathrooms with showers throughout and one bath. All rooms are airy and spacious, with comfortable beds, and cosy furniture. The dining room/kitchen is well fitted out with all modern conveniences, and the dining table is plenty big enough, and comfortable, for 10 people. The underfloor heating on the ground floor is amazing, and lovely to wake up to on a cold, wet winter morning. The owner greeted us on arrival and gave me a guided tour of the property, including the use of all the systems installed. There was ice in the freezer, two bottles of Prosecco in the fridge, and various other kitchen items had been supplied for our use. There was also a lovely Christmas tree set up and decorated with lights and decorations in the hallway. The property is situated on a working farm, but there is practically no noise or disturbance, and it is nice to watch the horses being exercised in the mornings. I would highly recommend this lovely property for a family/friends getaway, it is a great base from which to explore the surrounding area, and also a lovely, quiet, and peaceful place to relax, kick back, and forget the outside world. You will not be disappointed with this property, it is worth every penny of the price asked, and then some.

"This was a lovely house to stay in for a few days with our extended family."
The only 2 things I would mention is that a lot of noise carries to the higher or lower floors which is not helpful when small children are getting to sleep or older people being woken up early in the morning when the little ones were playing downstairs. There were some kitchen aids missing like a measuring jug and some scales. Otherwise it was really well equipped and very spacious.
-
"Superb! New large property, well equipped and in a quiet site - just outside a small town."
plenty to do close by, including walking in the Brecon Beacons. What more could you want?
-
"What an amazing house."
The owner was lovely as well. Beautifully decorated and well maintained the space was incredible and would happily recommend to anyone and would go again in a heartbeat
-
"We had wonderful 7 days break at this cottage."
Very spacious, clean property. Loved the lay out. Adequate space for 10 people. Host was very helpful throughout the stay for any issues. Fantastic views with the grettings from horses in the farm.Tesco superstore within one mile. Central location for small day trips.
-
"Incredibly spacious, extremely comfortable property with a relaxed feel."
Our group of 9 never felt cramped or fought over a bathroom and enjoyed it immensely. The setting was lovely, with beautiful horses, and there were really great circular walks for the dog from just down the road. The kids loved skateboarding down the drive. Only point to note was that the games room was occupied during our stay - but we didn’t need the space anyways.
-

Amazing we go on cottage holidays every year ( excluding last year due to covid) and this was the best place that we have ever booked
-
"What a fantastic house for our booking, The owner, made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble."
Wi-Fi is good, and there is a new, large screen Tv in the main lounge, We took our dog and the sire is equipped with 2 x Dog Crates, we left our dog for a couple of hours in the crate whilst we popped into Ammanford for some shopping and lunch. The bar-b q came in handy as we had some great weather for the weekend. We will certainly return to this house again, don’t miss out on this, off to book again.
-

"The house is glorious."
It is spacious, immaculately clean and has every convenience. The owner is kind, friendly and very helpful. Highly recommended.
-
"We had a fantastic stay here, the house is amazing."
It was far more than what we expected, just WOW. It is set on a farm with stables, so you get to see the horses. The house was spotless throughout and work that has gone into it is brilliant. Our host was lovely and we were welcomed with homemade Welsh cakes and Prosecco. We would see our host in the mornings and he would always check we were ok and see if we needed anything. We will definitely be back again.
-
"The holiday house was outstanding."
The owner who met us when we arrived and was on hand during the week to deal with any queries could not have been more helpful. He went out of his way to show us his horses and stables especially with regard to our children, and made the holiday more memorable. We would love to go back.
-
"Had an amazing time in Wales!"

"Wow, totally amazing place with a great host."
This home is perfect for a family gathering, 5 massive bedrooms, an awesome kithcen with comfortable seating for all guests at the dining table. Lovely patio area and BBQ (to rainy for us to use though so look forward toi the summer when we can visit again). Lounge area, again, is large enough to host a large family.
