Thank you for making our Christmas so special. The big house was fantastic. Full of charm and beautifully decorated. Loved the size of all bedrooms and private bathrooms for everyone. And the barn is a sensational party space. Could not recommend it more.

We had a really wonderful time together as the house can accommodate every age comfortably. The kitchen dining area is large so can house everyone cooking playing and sitting g around. Altogether a fantastic home. The garden forest area is gorgeous. We played croquet a lot which kept most everyone entertained for hours. There are some pretty walks from the house. Most of all the view from the house and garden are stunning. Altogether a fabulous weekend!!!

Had a long weekend in two of the properties. The location is fabulous with uninterrupted views of the beautiful countryside. The houses are furnished to a high standard and the facilities were impeccable. We were also lucky with the weather!.

We had the best weekend at Wern-Y-Cwm for our family and friends hen do. The photos of the Farmhouse and grounds don’t do it justice, it really is a beautiful place. We made use of all the Farmhouse rooms, disco den and garden for our activities. The Barn was an extra special addition and we managed to keep it a surprise for the Bride to be which worked perfectly. It was a fab weekend for all ages, thank you to Emily and Laura!

Great space and house to get together with friends and all their families. Lots to do. Lots of space. Bigger than the photos show. Super helpful before check in.

The Farmhouse was warm and welcoming in a fantastic rural location! It was easy access to Abergavenny with all its amenities. The farmhouse had a well equipped kitchen including an Aga. The layout and facilities of the Farmhouse suited our family very well! On the negative side, having paid well over Seven Thousand Pounds ,it was a kick in the teeth to be charged extra for logs, dogs and the 18th guest! Especially as the 18th guest was one year old and not provided with a cot, high chair or towel? We also had problems with the electricity during our stay! On the first occasion ( Christmas Eve, just as we were about to serve Dinner ) We thought it was a general power cut, when we realized it was only the farmhouse it took about 40 minutes to sort out the problem! On subsequent occasions we were able to reset it in about 10 minutes. Being plunged into total darkness was not only very annoying, but could also have had serious safety consequences! Suggestions for small improvements would be: 1. A set of sparkling wine glasses for celebrations 2. Serving spoons for the dinning room 3. Glass water jugs and vases for the dinning room 4. A set of cooks knives in the kitchen 5. Each guest given a hand towel to supplement the bath towel 6. Improved exterior lighting on the Farmhouse ( one of the family had a nasty fall on the steps near the gate ,in the dark ) Despite the niggles, The family had a very enjoyable Christmas and celebrations at Wern y Cwm Farmhouse and were able to explore the amazing local area with its great walks and History

We had a big group of friends here for the weekend and had a brilliant time. The house was lovely with excellent facilities, the hot tub was great and the garden and views were stunning. Would highly recommend it.

I stayed at this house with a group of 6 families; all well educated with multiple post graduate degrees, well travelled and have had numerous stay cations and holidays. Never in our history of travel have we ever encountered such rudeness from our host. To keep the review fair I have listed the key pros and cons of staying here. Positives: Good size house, ample parking, fair location in terms of scenic environment and access to main roads. Drawbacks: Host: I had to chase to get communication on arrival instructions, no clear instructions on where items are kept (e.g. iron, cleaning equipment) and no contact number so only communication method was via email. Checkout is at 10am, I enquired for late checkout (due to having small children to prevent having to rush) and the host advised this was not possible due to cleaners arriving straight after we leave. However, there were no cleaners since the host emailed me after 9pm on the day we departed. Her email was rude and full of lies, she was suggesting we had "trashed" the house and apparently left the hot tub in a "broken" and "disgusting" state. Everything was in working order when we left the property, we had placed all but few small bits of rubbish in the bins (for which by the way she left limited black bags) and there was the usual mess you would expect the cleaners to clean (bedsheets, towels, some food crumbs in the kitchen etc). After checkout, the host was repeatedly emailing with multiple lies which I eventually just ignored. House: In terms of the house itself, whilst it is of a good size it is structurally dated and everything creaks (floors, doors, beds!). There are no locks on the doors and they are very thin walls and floors thus disturbing kids trying to sleep with the slightest of noise. Furthermore, the power cut downstairs on 3 occasions, once whilst we were cooking which was a nuisance and an inconvenience. Location: to get to the house you have to drive half a mile along a very narrow road, fortunately we weren't faced with oncoming traffic however if we did then one of the cars would have to reverse back which would be a nightmare. When exploring the local area we were also faced with racism. To summarise, I would not recommend staying here. Whilst the drawbacks of the house and location can be managed, the rude host has impacted my mental wellbeing and I would not want anyone else to be put through the post checkout traumatic experience.
