Cwmcelyn was e xcellent overall. All as advertised. Owner very helpful and friendly.
Very nice place with everything needed.Unable to fault our lovely secluded weekend.
Exceptional facility, the owner had thought of everything to make us comfortable and informed of the area we were staying, nothing was too much trouble. She was outstanding as was the cottage
Loved Cwmcelyn, it is in a beautiful location. The owner made us feel at home. Amazing people in the areas, it's so quiet definitely coming back, the cottage had everything you needed
Liked the setting and the cottage itself, plus it's outdoor space could not have been more perfect for us. Everything we needed was there and our host was really friendly and helpful too. A perfect holiday.
We loved everything about the place, cannot say one bad word.
The cottage was finished to an impeccable standard, it was very clean and well stocked, we didn't want for anything! The view was stunning and it was lovely to be so secluded and peaceful. We would thoroughly recommend this cottage and hope to visit again ourselves.
I would highly recommend this property and I think that it is likely we will return again in the future.
The property was finished to a high standard and was beautiful the added extra was having the gorgeous views. All in all we had a great week and would return for sure!
Loved everything about this cottage. The location was secluded but not miles from civilisation. We were made to feel very welcome and we are planning on returning.
A beautiful cottage, could not fault it. It was in a lovely peaceful, quiet location.
The cottage was excellently located for our purposes and it was well equipped, comfortable, warm and relaxing. The owners were very helpful and generous. Thanks for a great holiday.
Perfect rural retreat
Cwmcelyn is just perfect, we have had two weeks and loved every second. This cottage is so beautiful, rolling hills and fields in every direction with an abundance of wildlife. We have watched squirrels playing as well as a family of rabbits with lots of babies who share the lawn. The best thing is it's so safe for the children, there's a wooded area to the side with a gate where they have been making a den but for younger ones, the main garden is fully fenced with a little play area. The owner has also included plenty of toys, games, books and a few dvds. For the grownups, it's been bliss sitting on the patio at night with a glass of wine or relaxing in the hot tub. We've seen bats and an owl has been very vocal too. Because it's so rural there is very little light pollution so we've stayed up late star gazing and then slept in in the morning. The beds are super comfy! There are plenty of things to do in the area, the Elan valley is gorgeous and for excellent local food there is a quaint little 16th century pub, the Triangle Inn which is only a ten minute drive away. I highly recommend this property and we can't wait to return.
Hidden Treasure
What a fantastic 3 night break! The farmhouse has everything you need. The weather was beautiful and the views are absolutely stunning. Thoroughly enjoyed the break and feel well rested! Huge bonus is the hot tub!
Truly worth 5 stars
We have just returned from a fantastic week at Cwmcelyn. It has been lovingly restored and has been made to feel like a home away from home, with everything you need for a relaxing break. There are three bedrooms. 2 are a nice size considering the size of the property, the 3rd was cosy but it would be a tight squeze for a 2nd person. All were clean and dust free, and beds were comfortable. Ample space in the bathroom and wetroom too.
The kitchen and utility room totally assist you in making the most of a self catering hol with virtually every utensil and appliance you could need to cook and subsequently clean with. It was nice to arrive to find milk tea and coffee already stocked, with various other usful bits and bobs left by other guests. We felt compelled to add to the collection!
The diswasher and tumble drier were handy too and you probably could get through the whole day without reusing the same plate or glass as they were very numerous.....we obviously didn't get that lazy though.
The lounge was cosy although make good use of the fire as the stone floor was rather cold.(but we did have a cold week)
The best feature, for me, anyway was the hot tub. Its covered but still gives you amazing views day and night (oh the stars!) and unlike some places i have stayed.....it was as hot or cool as we needed for us and our children. The garden is fully enclosed with a gate and safe for children to play freely.
This cottage truly has it all if you are looking for a secluded relaxing break. There isn't a lot to do in the winter, but the local villages and towns have all you need stock up, with some lovely little villages to just explore.
Many thanks to Sian and family for making Cymcelyn such a beautiful place to holiday. We can't wait to come back again.
Perfect holiday cottage
We have just returned from a perfect family holiday here. The cottage is in a quiet location, surrounded by sheep fields. The garden is huge and has a children's play and luxury outdoor furniture. The hot tub was amazing, great fun for the kids and relaxing for the adults. Great that there was the wooden canopy over to protect from the weather. The cottage was immaculately clean, and the owner had even baked a lovely Welsh bread for us and left fresh milk in the fridge.
What a find
Well what can i say, from the moment i booked until we left, Sian looked after us
The farmhouse is one of the best we have ever stayed at, it is only 2 years old and has everything you need for a really relaxing holiday.
The location is superb only sheep to talk to, minutes from shops , pubs and take aways
The hot tub is fantastic covered for rainy days but open on each side
overall this is one of the best with brilliant owners
A Great Place to Relax.....
This cottage was situated in a great location to relax and unwind with family and friends. The location is quiet and secluded, with the only sign of life being the animals and occasional tractor. The accomodation has been beautifully updated with all the modcons (Dishwasher, Utility Room, Wifi etc.) and is well stocked with everything you would need for your stay. The owner is very friendly and made us feel welcome straight away. Within our party were three young children and the grounds were all enclosed within fences to keep them safe, there was also a really nice play area (with swings and slide) for the children. There is also a well maintained Jacuzzi which is great for relaxing after a long walk.
a piece of heaven
