Perfect location that was dog friendly. Great to be able to have a place for my dog to safely sniff.
Enough seating, cutlery and crockery etc to cater to the number of beds available. Really well equipped kitchen. Easy level access to outside at the back, ramp at the front, and fly screens.
Log fire with plenty of wood.
Views of the Aurora.
Not the property owners fault but we had x2 blackouts while we were staying. Luckily the wood fire kept us warm and there were a couple of candles on hand.
Otherwise everything was better than expected.

The house is beach frontage - just walk out the back door and down to a beautiful beach, which was very quiet. Listening to the crashing waves at night was lovely. In summer, the beach would be fabulous (we were there in cold weather).
The rooms are spacious - especially the main living area. There is also another area upstairs where you can relax and enjoy the views. The kitchen is well appointed, with a large fridge and pantry space. Our group consisted of 6 adults, and we never felt cramped around the table, the kitchen or the lounge area.
The house is quite a way out from Swansea, but we knew this, so that was okay. Just make sure you have purchased all of your supplies before heading out to the house.
The main issue was that the house is listed as having 2 bathrooms - the main reason we booked it, with 6 adults in the group. Unfortunately this is NOT the case. There is only one bathroom, with a bath, shower and toilet in that room. There is a 2nd toilet in an outside building. But please note that there is only One bathroom, and going across to the outside building to the 2nd toilet at night may night be ideal.
When we stayed in September '24, the house had not been cleaned very well before we arrived. The bathroom floors were dirty, and there was sand on the kitchen floor, the fire place was very full of ash from previous fires. A number of the things that were listed in the house manual as being provided for us, were not there. The house needs some maintenance done on it too - roller blind cord was broken, skirting boards are badly scuffed and warped making the doors drag on the floor.
The gardens/grounds around the house could certainly do with some maintenance and tidying up. They are very overgrown and messy.

Loved the location right on the beach and suited us to visit surrounding area. It was comfortable and quiet.Well appointed kitchen, comfortable beds and couches.
I think a few things could have been better……fresh drinking water was not left as stated in the welcome notes, I would have liked to park my car in the carport but the Bougainville vine was overgrown and blocking and I wasn’t sure my car wasn’t going to get scratched. The bathroom sink was draining very slowly. The entry (outside door) could have been cleaner. First impressions make a difference. These are small things. Just wanted you to be aware.

Spacious well appointed home close to the beautiful beach! We would Definitely stay again!
Lots of bugs & a few spiders which of course Is to be expected due to location.
House especially upstairs bedroom Was extremely hot & stuffy!

Can't rate this place high enough! Hosts are very accommodating and responds quickly.
Rooms, living space, bathroom, facilities, outdoor decking, kitchen - it was all wonderful.
Best feature is the proximity of the beach to deck. 30 second walk. With outdoor shower to hose off.
Game bedroom upstairs was also best feature my son loved! Sand toys for the kids to enjoy - and so many pantry items to cook at home. Honestly wished we stayed longer.
Thank you so much!
