    “We went to the winter fair in Builth Wells so decided to find a cottage for a few days to see what the local area had to offer and we were very pleasantly surprised, enough to go again sometime in the future.”

    Lovely comfortable cottage in a great little town with lots to see locally, very enjoyable. Thank you
