"Absolutely perfect place to spend hay term. Beautiful house,fantastic walks & great evenings in by the log fire!! The sun has finally shone on us on the last day - so we decided to do a 7 mile walk up the Black Mountains. Recommend the food at the Three Tuns in Hay. Thank you very much for making it such a lovely holiday!"

"What a fantastic place! Breathtaking scenery & location – complete peace & quiet, no phone signal is bliss! Fabulous walks straight out of the front door & no one else in sight, heaven"

"A beautiful house in a beautiful place! Fantastic walking from the door and fabulous baths & comfy beds to ease the limbs at the end of the day. Our boys enjoyed the paddock as a cricket pitch and the stream and rope swing. The ponies were a delight too. Thank you for making it such a special place. We hope to return"

"We will be hard pressed to find another holiday ‘cottage’ of this size with so much character, such large grounds and in such a beautiful location as this…so it looks like we will have to come back to Blaencwm. We found lovely walks and challenging mountain biking outside the front door. We recommend walking to the top of ‘Lord Herefords Knob’, whatever the weather, as the views are stunning. It was very windy and slightly wet when we ventured up there which seemed to add to the experience. Yet we could still see down to the cottage. Don’t be surprised if when your children go into the garden, they return with a new identity – namely Ray Mears or Bear Grylls!!! We had a wonderful time and are returning home chilled and relaxed. My sister-in-law had her first lie-in for 20 years!!!"

We were intrigued and very happy to say that the house has lived up to our hopes and provided a superb location for our 50th Wedding anniversary party with our children and grandchildren. It’s been a memorable weekend and the house certainly helped to make it so”
