The Byre Reviews

The cottage was amazing. The hosts Emma and David couldnt do enough to make us feel welcomed. Nothing was too much trouble. They were brilliant! They have created a stunning cottage. The location was fantastic and we really did have the best week.
We had fabulous stay at the Byre. Everything was perfect. We loved relaxing in the hot tub. The dog enjoyed her welcome box which was a really lovely and unique. Its well equipped with everything you need. Everyone from the team was friendly, super helpful and gave lots of great recommendations of places to visit and eat in the local area.
Samantha
We had the perfect stay at The Byre and would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing break in South Wales. Location is ideally situated to explore the whole South Wales coast and we spent our two weeks exploring everywhere from Newport to St Davids and Barry Island to the Brecon Beacons. The cottage itself is perfect, everything has been thought about and the huge garden and hot tub make it the perfect spot. Simply perfect x
Andrew
The Byre was absolutely fantastic. The place was clean and beautifully finished with plenty of space for us and our husky, who loved being able to wander around the garden. Would definitely go back again
This was a fabulous find! The property The Byre was gorgeous, incredibly comfortable and very spacious the owners had thought of everything. This is, by far, one of the best places we have ever stayed. The garden was perfect for my German Shepherd and the place was situated within reach of so many lovely places to go, particularly with a dog. In particular, we loved Dunraven Castle and Beach. The Farmers Arms Turkish Mezze served amazing food we just wished we had visited it earlier in our holiday so we could have gone back and tried other things on the menu. It was lovely to meet Emma she and her husband David are an inspiration and have created a wonderful space! Oh and you have to stop by the Kune Kune piggies, they are bundles of fun although they are fast becoming teenagers!!! Thank you so much for having us.
Charlotte
We had a fantastic week at The Byre. The cottage was perfectly clean with excellent facilities. The hot tub was used every day! The location is beautiful and within easy reach of the beaches and local pubs restaurants.
Stephen
Amazing property renovation to a very high standard. Great place to stay, with a short drive to everything you need for a holiday. Emma and David are lovely people and anything you need they will help you with. We had a fantastic time and would recommend to anyone
A super cottage! Everything we needed! Emma and David have created a lovely set of 3 cottages on their working farm that would be ideal for an extendedfamily breakholiday! For keen walkers the cottages are a very short walk from the South Wales coastal path, a short walkdrive to lots of beautiful villagesresorts and ideally situated near Bridgend halfway between Cardiff and Swansea. We were lucky enough to have fantastic weather and 1 week just wasn't enough to visit all the places we wanted to see we will need to visit again! Looking forward to it!
Carole
Fantastic property. Very well stocked with all the home comforts. The hot tub was wonderful. Location is excellent, very close to good pubs, an organic milk 'cow' hut and long walks. Very dog friendly, with huge garden and lovely welcome pack not only for the humans but also the dogs. Owners were very responsive and helpful.
