"It was extremely cold on arrival - 12c inside. We contacted the host about something else (games room - see below) and were told that this is the owners intentional policy for 'sustainability reasons'! We had small children with us and the house did not fully warm up until the following evening - so the first 24 hours was uncomfortable - eating dinner and breakfast with coats on and cold children is not really a holiday!If we had been told it was a mistake and someone had just forgotten to turn on the heating, we'd have accepted it. But for this to be intentional seems crazy!Also, we had booked this house in part because of the games room. We found it locked, and contacted the host to see where the key was. Only to be told that the games room was "unavailable at the moment" - very frustrating. No offer of a small refund in compensation was made. It's frustrating to be told you will get something, and then not get it.The actual house was fairly nice and decent for our purposes, but the experience was not good due to the poor hosting."

"Everything was fab as always. This is our third visit here and we love it!It's our little bit of peace and quiet and the dog loves his "big garden" "

"Pet friendly. Very nice food. Wonderful location."

"This is a beautiful old farmhouse. The exterior pictures on the listing don’t do it justice really. The bedrooms are lovely: all very large with crisp white bedding. The birdsong is like a symphony. We had a fire every night in the fireplace in the big lounge. It has 3 sofas so was really comfy and roomy. Kitchen is well equipped with a long table to eat in and then another absolutely enormous dining table in the dining room next to the kitchen. We loved the outdoor space which has a hammock chair and a 3 seater outdoor sofa and looks onto a lawn surrounded by trees. It could probably do with a couple more outdoor chairs as otherwise there is only a picnic bench which isn’t that close to the other chairs so we couldn’t all sit out together but it’s a small gripe. You can walk to Skenfrith Castle just a few minutes down the road and there is a path within the Castle grounds which leads down to a river where you can swim. Beautiful location with lots of walks, although very hilly (some hills of 45 degrees for quite a distance) so not the best for the older family members."

"Very comfortable family room. Good value and very friendly and helpful staff."
