Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Property was very clean and tidy with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Was good to have a garden to sit in the sun and place to park the car at the front. Visited the Brecon Mountain railway which was close by.
Stayed 2 nights in May 2026
