Snaptrip says
Guests consistently praise Ffynnonlwyd Cottage for its cleanliness, comfortable and homely atmosphere, and welcoming hosts. The hot tub is frequently highlighted as a delightful feature. The property's location on a working farm adds to the charm, offering a peaceful setting with the convenience of nearby attractions. While most experiences are positive, a few guests mention minor issues with farm noises and flies.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviews frequently commend the cottage for its cleanliness, with guests expressing satisfaction with the well-maintained and tidy environment. Only a single mention of flies detracts slightly from an otherwise exceptional standard.
The cottage's location is appreciated for its peaceful farm setting and proximity to local attractions. However, some guests note the need to drive to visit places and the presence of farm animals, which may not suit everyone.
Comfort is a strong point for the cottage, with guests finding the accommodation cosy and homely. The secure garden and hot tub add to the comfort level, although there is a mention of a broken loo seat and a cold shower in one review.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the hot tub and enclosed garden. However, there are comments about a broken loo seat, cold shower, and non-working fairy lights, suggesting some room for improvement in maintenance.
While guests mention a welcome basket and the enjoyment of the hot tub, there are not enough references to specific thoughtful gestures or gifts to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such amenities are subject to change and may not be guaranteed.

We went with our two children (aged 7 and 9) and it was perfect. The hot tub in the evening was a perfect way to end the day after going to the beach, a walk or nearby town. Everywhere is around a 30 minute drive and the beaches were spectacular. We were also grateful to the owners, Mr Lloyd, when our daughter lost her ring he found it and left in a safe place for us to collect on the last day when we had already vacated.

The owners are helpful and friendly and the dogs were an absolute pleasure. The hot tub is also lovely to relax in at the end of the day. Overall a lovely holiday, thank you!
