Grouse Gilestone Farm Reviews

Melanie
We had an amazing time at Grouse - thank you so much for facilitating that at such short notice. We loved Talybont, and did some amazing walks (including walking from the cottage up to Pen Y Fan!). The cottage was lovely and clean, and cosy. Thank you so much - we'd love to come again!
