REVIEWS from our guest book
“The annual clan gatherings of the families, one all the way from Oz. Fresh air, good food and great company. Four happy dogs under our feet each night under the dining table. A lovely setting for us all to reconnect and reflect on another year gone and another year to come.”

“A thoroughly enjoyable few days in an exceptionally well equipped and clean house. Beautiful garden and surroundings with great views over wonderful countryside. the children particularily enjoyed raosting marshmallows over the firepit used every night. Some of our party enjoyed mountain running and wild water swimming, all close to Hay. Wonderful memories.“

“We came to celebrate a 60th birthday. This place fitted us perfectly. We had just the best time. A perfect backdrop to our wild west theme. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay. Ps: Do check out the walks from the cottage - steep but worth it for the views down over Hay.”
