Hiraeth Reviews

Michael
The house was in the perfect area for long walks and places to see. Accomadation had everything you need for a short break, good for familes, well maintained and plenty of parking. Would recommend this house as we didn't come across any issues from start to finish.
The property offers a great space for families with lots of beautiful places to visit nearby. The garden is large. Unfortunately the property and garden needs to be redecorated and have a general overhaul in terms of maintenance. It currently does not meet the 4 star rating and isnt worth the high price tag for a weeks stay. If you are planning to visit take an eye mask for the downstairs bedroom, there are no games, dvds or dvd player despite them being listed.
Gaurav
Wifi was the biggest issue but it also gave us quality family time without using our phones.
Hiraeth is ideally situated for exploring the Brecons with lots to do and walks from the doorstep. The family living space that spills out into the garden was amazing and the hot tub was definitely a hit with everyone! The property was very clean and welcoming on arrival. The beds were extremely comfortable and we slept well despite there not being thick curtains at any of the windows Take eye masks if you are light sensitive. On the down side, storage space throughout the house is sparse, and with very little hanging and storage space, we lived out of the suitcase. The hob is tricky to use, but if you are used to using an induction hob, it's fine. We did have issues with the fridge, not being cold enough to keep food cool enough in the very warm weather, although it eventually became cooler, when running it half empty. Luckily, we had a fridge in the camper van that we also used Maybe in cooler weather it's fine. Overall, however, we had a great stay and with a bit more TLC to this property and garden, would give it a 5 star rating
Amaaaaazing place to stay, Julie was super helpful and honestly really nice, was honestly one of the best weve been too, will definitely be back! !
Lovely cottage. . beautiful peaceful area .. certainly recommend for family break with well behaved dogs ... Hot tub and garden a real treat
Lesley
Gorgeous property, fantastic views, great facilities. Parking is a bit limited, and try as we may we could not get the hob to work. It was a good job there was a plug in two ring hob in one of the cupboards. We could really have done with a good mop too!!
