Mini-break rules at this cottage: A mini-break is a holiday for less than a week and/or may start on a day which isn't the normal changeover day (Saturday). This property owner will only accept mini-breaks at short notice in the Holiday Season (from Easter to October Half Term) - only if the holiday start date is within 30 days. Out of the Holiday Season (Between October to March only - NOT including Christmas New Year's Eve and February Half Term weeks) which can be booked at anytime.

Please note: A returnable £100 Good Housekeeping Deposit will be required before we can give the key safe code. Our experience shows that this procedure results in an all round better holiday for everyone, as our holiday home owners are prepared to offer better quality properties for guests and all guests fully respect the property and so make manageable the process of preparing the property for the next guest's full enjoyment. Nearly all our guests are respectful people where the bond is fully returned. We have a high proportion of returning guests who are appreciative of our service and the high standard of accommodation that we strive to provide. Please be assured that STS is a Visit Wales/Welsh Assembly Government Accredited agency. Thank you in advance for your co-operation.

Thanks for the Feedback which has been passed on the Property Owner and the Deputy. Please can all issues be brought to our attention as soon as you can - many issues can be rectified almost immediately. The Deputy replied: "Unfortunately, lots of guests mixed cleanliness with decoration. For example if walls have marks and they need painting- guest will think they are dirty. If floor has scratches and marks- they will think we didn't mop it etc. It's a tricky one. If there's any specific cleaning feedback, I would really appreciate the information."
