The Bookcase Reviews

Perfect home for a big group of family or friends. So much to do, beach is such a short walk away and hosts couldnt have gone out of their way any more to make it more special. The activities and cinema room were perfect and we loved the hot tub! Highly recommend staying here!

Great property for a large group. Good base for exploring this part of Wales. Lots of extras that were not on the listing eg, coffee machine, welcome basket. Host very responsive and helpful. Couldnt park 3 cars on the drive, admittedly we have a large car, but there is parking close by so it wasnt a problem.
