We just Love it here. The house is gorgeous, so warm and homely. Lots of space for our 3 generations of family. A wonderfully stocked kitchen, with everything you could need. 2 fridge freezers and 2 dishwashers and all the little bits that you dont know whether to take or not... washing up liquid, foil, cleaning stuff, condiments etc, the list is endless. Even in every bathroom theres cotton wool pads and a box with medical bits you may need. Dressing gowns in each bedroom.. you want for nothing really. The beds are comfy and the top quality bedding feels like luxury. The isolation of the setting gives you such a sense of peace and calm and I can't tell you how much I miss this place now we've left. The grown up children and grandchildren had a wonderful time, visiting places, on the beach and mainly in the house. The weather was very kind so we had time in the garden and playroom, watching the farmer training his sheepdog in the paddock at the front. They were very friendly and my husband was chatting to him and his dad daily. Mrs Budgeon, the owner is just lovely, the best hostess, so friendly, obliging and attentive. Gorgeous cakes on arrival, always appreciated and very much enjoyed. Thank you again for a holiday full of wonderful memories Thank you

We had a comfortable and peaceful stay, a short walk from a beautiful and quiet beach, which my dog enjoyed (not often she gets to play on sand and in waves). The farmhouse is large, with a very useful drying room and a quiet area to chill out which is separate from the TV room. Everything we needed was available, including a back pack which we used on our walk up and down Snowdon. The rural nature of the property, surrounded by sheep, horses and cows, provided clear and starry night skies. The property is next to an airfield, but during our week we only saw one light plane and heard three helicopters, which we understand is the air ambulance service. I would recommend the property.

The house was spotless and very well layed out. The kitchen had everything you wanted plus more. We were contacted by the owner the following day to see if all was well which was a nice touch, she had really useful information on local attractions and places to visit. Well done to her and her housekeeper for giving us such a lovely place to stay. Will definitely visit again.
