The self catering holiday accommodation has been built to very high, green, standards, with excellent insulation and fittings. The lower floor contains the entrance hall, kitchen/diner, and a spacious wet room, all with underfloor heating. The beautiful oak floors of the first floor lounge and bedroom are heated by solar-heated, underfloor heating. There is also a wood burner with logs supplied. The lounge has French windows opening onto a Juliet balcony, looking up through the oak woods to the summit of Carn Gafallt. It has free-sat TV incorporating radio and DVD player and a CD player.
The spacious bedroom has a very comfortable 5′ bed, while there is also a sofa/bed in the lounge which easily converts to a 4’6” double bed, a mattress pad is provided for extra comfort. Linen and towels are provided and a hair-dryer is available.
The country-style kitchen has a comprehensive range of equipment including microwave, oven and hob, plus fridge, lots of workspace and all the little touches to create a real home from home. The cost of electricity is included in the rental cost.
The negatives: no pets, other than guide dogs, no smoking, and, at the moment, we have limited mobile reception.
