We had a lovely time and a well needed break in the countryside in this cottage. It has rustic charm and all the mod cons needed for a fantastic stay. It's location is quiet and secluded which we loved and the town of Knighton a short drive away which we visited twice during our 3 night stay. You can have a walk straight out of the cottage into the countryside with wild horses near by. The kids and our dog loved the garden and the tree swing was a bonus! The big kids loved the fires inside and out, which made it cozy and welcoming inside and warm outside to enjoy the outdoors for longer.Angelika checked we were okay when we arrived and before we left, which was really appreciated and we knew she would help if we needed anything.Thank you again for a wonderful time, we will be booking again very soon!

The cottage was as described; large & in a lovely secluded location, with a large shady garden perfect for the hot weather & dog. Accommodated my last minute stayUnfortunately needs work inside;Velux roof windows unable to open and no blinds on any of them over beds.Toaster set off smoke alarm with first use due to so much crumbs left inside unemptiedMat by toilet unclean & strong smell urineMop used to clean floor before my arrival smelt bad so I left it outside all weekShower drain very blocked, tray fills when usingSofa & chairs & cushions need washing / replacing, I used my own throw to sit on as they felt very sticky & dirtyThankfully I took my own bedding as it was hot, the bedding there was very used & tired, piece of old foam on top of mattress, no mattress protector, just a thin stained bottom sheet. Uncleaned around bedEvery door felt dirty, & kitchen cupboards, kitchen drawers messy & under sink a tip.Fridge filled with water in bottom where the drawer was missingDishwasher was a bonusI'm sorry to write this I realise people have different standards but some time & money needs to be spent on this property if you are renting it out. It was not last minute small issues that had been missed. I needed a break & did enjoy the privacy & garden

Charming old cottage - perfectly peaceful

We enjoyed our stay, the cottage is very spacious, full of character and has everything needed for a relaxing stay. The grounds and setting are gorgeous, our dog loved playing in the very large secure garden and enjoyed lovely walks in the surrounding area. The welcome pack was very much appreciated and Angelica was a very attentive host.

About the host

Hosted by Angelika Bradley-Zenz

Host profile image
I am a retired teacher, living in Gloucestershire with my husband. I grew up in Germany but am now totally anglicized . I speak German fluently, French reasonably well and Italian like a waiter.

Why they chose this property

The cottage used to be our family holiday cottage . After my retirement we refurbished it completely to turn it into holiday rental.

The cottage is in a lovely natural location and is ideal for relaxing, walking, bird watching, star gazing and exploring the sites of Wales. Cefn Pawl is very popular with guests with many returning again and again .

What makes this property unique

If you want to be close to nature and and love tranquillity, this cottage is perfect. The secluded garden is a great space for kids to play in. And for the whole family there is a friendly pub which serves delicious food in the nearby village.
