“Perfect cottage, perfect location, perfect owners” I stayed at the cottage in april with two elderly people, one of whom was in a wheelchair. The facilities were fantastic for disabled visitors. The cottage looked like we were the first occupants, it was in pristine condition - we were really surprised to learn that it had been a rental cottage for around 2 years. The owners were lovely - nothing was too much trouble, although they were not intrusive. The location is absolutely beautiful - on the side of a hill in the Brecon foothills, with fantastic views and a field of very friendly sheep adjacent to the garden. We loved it so much that immediately re-booked when we got home to take my granddaughters there in the Summer holidays.

“Great holiday in a fantastic cottage” Clare's cottage is just simply fantastic. We had a very warm welcome from Helen the owner when we arrived. Who gave us some great advice on the best walks nearby and details of all the local amenities. The cottage itself is very cosy and comfortable with everything you could ever need and more! The wood burning stove is great if you just want a nice chillout after a long day walking. The location is very good too as all the local amenities are only 3 miles away in Chepstow, which is a nice little town, and which also has the castle and museum for you too take a look at. There are also some othergreat places to visit nearby the cottage you can find details of them in the excellent welcome pack in the cottage. The garden is lovely, and dog safe. If you are looking for a great place to stay in South Wales we really do recommend Clare's cottage. We can't wait to come back again at some point in 2014.

“a lovely weekend in a beautiful tranquil spot” We visited Drws Nesa the weekend of the 9th March and were greeted warmly on arrival by our hostess Sue and shown to our accomodation,we were very impressed by the cottage which is very roomy for two people with all mod cons, all beautifully clean, warm and well presented with a welcoming homely feel. Fortunately for us the weather was fine and bright though cold which meant we were able to get out and walk one of the many walks available in the area.We also visited Tiger Bay which was very impressive with lots of restaurants, shops , a theatre and other amenities to try on our next visit as unfortunately we didn't have time to do it all justice.The location of the cottage means that you can be quiet and chilled out or, if you want, take a car ride visit Cardiff or one of the many other places of interest near bye. If you do not want to cook good food can be had at the local pub which is within walking distance (What we did was drive to the pub ,walk back and picked up the car the next morning) Sue was very informative about the local area and could give us advice on the best places to head for in our limited time. Sue's partner Dave was in the middle of "lambing" and kindly introduced us to his flock and the lambs that had already arrived a lovely experience for a couple of "townies" We both enjoyed our weekend very much and look forward to our next visit

“warm brilliant accommadation close to town but away from it all” My familly and friends had christmas at millbroke barn. On arival christmas tree up cake on the table with a lovely note very clean warm and comfy. Kids loved the catS and horses and outside space to play. Although away from other properties close enough if you wanted a town. Perfect for us could not fault it

“Tranquility at it's best” Intense tranquility that is best described the Coach House and its surrounding areas. One can enjoy both the country and the nearby cities; the choice is yours within any day's excursion. There is a certain warmth about Coach House that complements the tranquility.The house is equipped just like any home. The surrounding areas are fantastic for walks. A brisk walk in the crisp morning air will set the mood for the day's activities.

“Fantastic cottage!!” Having recently stayed at for 4 nights, just had to leave a review. As usual we had a very warm welcome from Helen, thank you!! Dolly's barn is fantastic it's like home from home, there is everything you would need for a fantastic holiday in South Wales! The location is perfect for some great walks right from the door, also is close enough to all the local amenities. We had a fantastic few days and would seriously recommend it to all, really looking forward to going back in January!!!

“Very nice indeed” Had a lovely time at this cottage. Hot tub was of course as amazing as you would expect! Owners were friendly and helpful. Garden was very secure for the dogs. Location was excellent and whilst there were neighbours we rarely saw anyone - which we liked. We were surprised to get home from an outing once to find the owner inside the property carrying out maintenence without telling us and he also turned up un-announced twice, which we werent really keen for. Was generally tidy and the little extra's were very nice. The vodka was lovely! Thanks. Would recommend to others but would not return.

“Peaceful, rustic charm with luxury” Wonderfully situated cottage with views of Tintern abbey. An excellent base to explore the Wye Valley, and the added attraction of pubs and restaurants within easy walking distance. The cottage itself has everything you would need, and is tastefully decorated. Luxurious and comfortable bedding. Comfy sofas in living room and attractive dining room. Kitchen well equipped though we did have a few problems working out the oven (having accidentally switched it off, which we had been warned not to do, so our fault). The woodburning stove a real focal point and welcomed in the wild February weather! It was a bit of a pain having to remember (in our case write down) a code to open the door instead of having a key, especially in the pouring rain, but I suppose it is easier to manage than keys. My only suggestion would be having a small porch outside that door for weather protection as it is not pleasant punching in numbers to open a door with rain pouring on you. But I am perhaps being a bit picky and overall the experience was excellent, and we would definitely book again. Must also note charming and helpful owners, Malcolm and Fiona.

“a quiet romantic luxury cottage on a quiet farm!” Excellent cottage , very well stocked for 2 people. Very comfy and warm! Would be more tricky for 2 couples as bathroom,, loo an en suite to main bedroom. family very welcoming. Even the peacock displayed his tail fan for us twice in the week.

“Vanilla Cottage whatever the weather” We have just spent another relaxing and peacefull time at this lovely cottage ( our seventh visit) It comes highly recommended for warmth, cosiness, facilities and real five star quality of welcome and appointment. Fiona and Malcolm have maintained these high standards for years now which is so very hard to do.An excellent venue for walking , cycling, sightseeing , shopping Pubs and restaurant and casual dining. What ever the weather!

“lovely” we had a great time enjoyed the cottage everything was there for a super holiday
