The kitchen was well equipped with electrical appliances and had basic cooking utensils. Although there was no freezer the ice box compartment in the fridge was very effective and reasonably spacious. The cottage is terraced and on the road but the noise was not overly intrusive at all. The cottage is ideally located for exploring the area and easy to walk to pubs, shops etc. We would definitely stay again.

House is situated directly opposite Offas Duke centre and path with great free parking. Wonderful beds with quality bedding. Comfortable seating and an effective woodburner. Well equipped kitchen, cooked most nights as a keen cook everything was there. He great to see it in summer, as we had snow, snug in winter. Excellent butcher in town and lots to see. We three recommend the house highly. Stairs, although steep, really not a problem for active elderley. Lastly absolutely spotless in terms of cleanliness. Couldn't fault it 10/10 to the housekeeper.
