This property is outstanding. We had 19 people staying ages ranging from 2 to 89 and this place had something for every age. The main space is very sociable. It says parking for 7 vehicles but we had 8 cars at one point with plenty of room for a couple more. The trampoline was a big hit and very safe.

The property and facilities are fabulous. There is only one thing that could improve this property and that would be to pick it up and put it on the sea front. Had a great week and the weather was great as well.

Fabulous location, countryside, entertainment facilities such as games room and hot tub- and full marks for accessibility which is rare to find- thank you

Fab place to stay for both adults and children. The games room and especially the retro games table were a big hit with the kids. Plus the trampoline in the garden. The adults made good use of the jacuzzi and sauna! We would thoroughly recommend it for a large family get together like ours. The 12 adults and 6 children were easily accommodated.

Lovely spacious accommodation. Well placed for local amenities such as beaches and countryside . Games room and hot tub for rainy days, of which we had none. Would recommend it. ,

Christopher

Brilliant house with everything you could ever want. We have just got back from a week of relaxation and fun. Would highly recommend.

Vivien

More than enough space. We were a group of 16 and could easily chill out and relax in the large kitchen, to lounge and if sunny outside around the very large table. The hot tub as great fun, the owners regularly checking the water to ensure all was up to scratch. Marks out if 10-11!

David

A lovely property with excellent facilities. The hosts Andy and Claire were very helpful and friendly. We were very pleasantly surprised by the spacious layout and by how clean everywhere was. Full marks to the cleaners who only have a few hours between lets. Headroom is a little restricted due to slopping ceilings upstairs so not ideal for six foo ters but don't be put off by that, there are plenty of bedrooms downstairs and you wouldn't want to miss out on this gem.

Sara

Our family of 22 loved our week here had plenty to keep the kids entertained the gardens were stunning with lots of wildlife to watch and a lovely peaceful place to sit and enjoy the sunshine the owners were very helpful and accommodating

Shane

what can i say? it was a glorious holiday at pontfaen villa. the villa is big and spacious enough, and full of everything you need on a self catering vacation.

SHARON

For a large gathering/getaway can not fault Pontfaen Villa. Property is immaculate and has everything you could want or need whatever the ages of party. Pictures really do not do the property justice. Would not hesitate to recommend this property. We were a party of 18 and had all the space that we needed and much more. Garden is a beautiful haven to relax in and hot tub and trampoline wer huge hits. The Hosts Andy & Claire are amazing and have thought of everything for comfort and style.

We loved our stay, everything was perfect. We are currently looking at dates to return next year. Thank you

We visited Ponfaen over Easter for my son's 18th birthday celebrations, there were 19 of us plus a dog and we all had an amazing time. The house is beautifully well kept with plenty of space, plus the added bonus of a hot tub and trampoline which were very well used. The bedrooms were all of a high standard with comfy beds and plenty of storage, an d the large outdoor space was brilliant for the kids to let off some steam. It was just perfect for what we wanted and we would definitely stay again!
