Pen-Y-Thon House Reviews

Jordan
Really nice house which had everything and more, would definitely stay again
Lovely house newly refurbished very clean and comfortable hot tub was a bonus
Louise
The cottage was fabulous, and clean and comfortable. We all especially enjoyed the multigame table, especially on the wetter days. The kitchen equipment needs attention though please. There was only one large saucepan, which is not good for cooking meals for 10 people. There are no scissors. A couple of the glasses 1 wine and 1 pint were broken when we arrived. But we managed, and had a great time. Thank you.
Agnieszka
Wish the weather was better as we didn't get much chance to enjoy the beautiful garden, but its our lovely british weather. The property was really nice, very clean. Pictures are exactly what you get. Gaming table was a hit with all the kids. Even though the house is situated by the A30, you cant really hear much noise and everyone still got a good night sleep. Hot tub was lush and the owners were very helpful. All kids were in and out of it all the time so it needed a clean, one phonecall and someone was in to sort it out within 20 minutes! Considering the weather, we couldve done with a tumble dryer as well, but we managed. Overall, a really nice stay, would definately recommend.
Very clean and tidy, good location. I would 100 recommend to others. Although WiFi was very slow we still had a good time.
Great location for quick access to both coasts and easy to find you way to some of the more remote parts. Very convenient location as long as you don't mind being close to the A30.. And we didn't mind at all
Christopher
The house is ideally located for both North and South coasts and is easy to find. It now has its own entrance straight off the road past the Clockhouse Garage with plenty of parking. The house looks as if it has been recently refurbished and is clean and bright throughout. The bedrooms are a good size and the beds comfortable. Similarly with the bathrooms with good size showers. The galley kitchen is small but adequate with a good size range cooker, it would be beneficial however to provide some larger saucepans and Pyrex bowls as cooking for 10 was a bit of a juggle with those provided, which in itself is the only real criticism of the property. The games table provided was a big hit with all of us.
