Perfect break. loved the local walks.

Really clean, everything we could have needed, thank you. We arrived a little early, the staff were very accommodating, we were lucky to get the key as our cottage was ready for us 😃

Perfect little lodge for a young family getaway

Ideal location for exploring the beacons and easy reach for Cardiff for a day trip Was perfect amount of space for two adult and 22 month old. Very clean and comfortably warm and well presented.

It’s so minor not worth mentioning but our sofa latch to hold the back up was loose which made difficult to relax back on the sofa.

Great location. Host (Gareth) very helpful. Comfortable beds and upstairs TV worked well. Very good bathroom and shower. Nice to have breakfast items provided.

Kitchen only has one (big) sharp knife. Need a small one or even a few. Sofa downstairs is uncomfortable Downstairs TV difficult to work out.

Very good

Great value and the location was great for exploring beautiful Brecon. Had a lovely weekend there with my sister. Handy breakfast cereals, loaf of bread, jam orange juice etc were supplied for breakfast which was a bonus. The pub next door was welcoming.

No complaints. Would stay again.

Clean and comfortable but a little disappointing.

The lodge was located well. The beds were comfortable.

No handle on bathroom door. Replaced during stay. Extractor fans were not working but fixed during stay. Blinds were broken. Furniture worn. No full length mirror.

Location very good and all the basic facilities were available.

More or less everything was available, Very close to town centre and canal boats. Friendly people willing to help. Took my own toasted sandwich maker which came in handy.

Settee and bed not very comfortable. Some noise from rear of pub one night but other two nights quiet.

Excellent stay in Brecon!

Gareth was a very welcoming and hospitable host. We had everything we needed, and the dogs were also made very welcome. There was bread, milk, jams, butter, juice and cereals all laid on, and we loved that we could park next to the accommodation. There was outside seating available, and we were literally 50m from the canal and an open space with play park. Our son was being ordained in the cathedral this weekend, and this accommodation was ideal, as it was within walking distance of pretty much everything! We also loved the atmosphere coming from the Gremlin Hotel. It made us feel that we were on holiday abroad. Shops and pubs were within easy walking distance. Perfect, and would definitely come again. Thanks so much Gareth!

It was warm, but Gareth provided fans. So nothing really.

Comfortable, convenient and well looked after.

Location was good as near the town and within walking distance of our friends.

Maybe a few more kitchen utensils as we did lots of cooking ourselves.

An OK stay

The breakfast was an added bonus and the access to free parking was really good. The heating was very good and we could bring our dog with us which was great.

The bed was quite lumpy so we did not sleep very well. The bath seal needs replacing as mould is clearly present and there are a few areas that need addressing e.g light switch in downstairs toilet is dirty and the sofa was not the most comfortable.

An ideal place to stay if you just need a comfortable bed and good bathroom.

Location, parking ( not always easy in Brecon!), spotlessly clean, excellent basic facilities- all I needed - and a friendly welcome

Lighting could be improved- not ideal for reading. Noise from the pub’s outdoor smoking area late at night - it’s right next door. Drunken laughter and foul language on the Saturday night - luckily it stopped at 23:00 just as I was about to go down and complain….

We did not stay at this property due to cleanliness issues.

This property was in Brecon.

On arrival this property was found to be dirty and unhygienic with no signs that any cleaning had been carried out prior to our arrival or indeed anytime recently, it is surprising that this property could be offered in this condition particularly in regards to recent events regarding COVID-19 and the need for rental properties to be cleaned between rentals. This property was nothing like the reviews that prompted us to book this accommodation, the general air of the property was a lack of cleanliness and care. Dirty and unhygienic black handprints covered the door handle area, strands of human hair on the sofa cushion showed that the property had not been cleaned recently. Two dirt encrusted remote controls, one held together with insulation tape, sat on a TV unit whose surface was worn and dirty, alongside this sat a router covered in dust. The bathroom had the same dirty paintwork and the bath/shower seal was mouldy, the light pull cord, once white as could be seen by the top, now the years of use and accumulated dirt left it dark brown and sticky with a knot where it had been repaired. We have used Booking.com previously without any issues, but due to the condition of this property, we could not bring ourselves to accept living with the dirt and general disrepair. After inspecting the property we informed the owner of our concerns, showed him the worse areas and informed him that we would not be staying due to the unhygienic conditions, we asked for a refund and were told that we would have to contact Booking.com. We stayed that night at the nearby Hotel and managed to then find an available property to stay, again via Booking.com, for the remaining days of our holiday.
