The Loft was a clean, comfortable cottage in the most stunning surroundings. The views from all aspects were spectacular. Lots of walks from your doorstep and wildlife all around. A short drive to the Elan Valley or a bike ride on the trail. The only slight issue was the need for more equipment in the kitchen and the shared areas (washing machine eRead moretc) where it needed a bit more organisation. Hide

The Loft is a very intimate, comfortable and quiet location for a few days away. Our hosts were available, but not at all intrusive, and pre arrival directions and details were all very clearly set out. We would like to return when the weather is hopefully better, but early February in mid Wales will always be a bit inclement!

Absolutely lovely setting , easy to find and beautifully placed. Owners are really warming and are available for any questions. Local walks are great around the owned land and the local village serves great food at affordable prices. Would 100% recommend for anyone wanting to escape the busy life for a while.

Great property and friendly owners but description when booking was a little misleading as the hot tub was a main feature but wasn't included in the price so had to pay extra for this feature !!!! Overall was a great holiday due to the property, location and the owners !!!!!
