    “This was our 5th stay at Minydon and as usual it was a lovely peaceful break.”

    It wasn't quite as quiet as usual due to the film crew in the village filming a new series for Sky TV apparently. Over the years there have been many little improvements to the cottage,which is clean,warm and comfortable with a lovely welcome pack and many little extras. The beds are much better with the new mattresses,but could perhaps do with some new quilts.The kitchen had everything we needed,and the airfyer is especially useful.

    It wasn't quite as quiet as usual due to the film crew in the village filming a new series for Sky TV apparently. Over the years there have been many little improvements to the cottage,which is clean,warm and comfortable with a lovely welcome pack and many little extras. The beds are much better with the new mattresses,but could perhaps do with some new quilts.The kitchen had everything we needed,and the airfyer is especially useful. Minydon is in a good location for exploring that part of Wales,with many local attractions within easy traveling distance. We enjoy the proximity to the beach which enables us and the dogs to walk for miles. There is a selection of DVD's and games in the cottage and a separate games room which to be honest we didn't use this year but it would be good to help entertain children in bad weather. The garden is lovely and sunny and with the addition of the new fencing is safe and secure for the dogs.Perhaps some pruning is required as the trees and pampas grass are beginning to spoil the lovely views of the hills. The only negative issues really are all the curtain rails could do with some attention and the exterior of the property is looking a bit sad especially the front door.
