We couldn't reccomend more! The hideaway was absolutely gorgeous. Myself, my partner and our dog stayed for a few nights as a last minute get away and we couldn't have stumbled on a better find. Hosts were incredibly friendly and the rooms were beautifully designed and maintained. The area was perfect, it was nice and peaceful with some beautiful spots and lovely walks available near by. The house was perfectly cozy and comfortable for a relaxing get away.

Lovely and quirky wee studio, some great thought has gone into the theme. Easy to park and find the house with clear instructions and the location is deadly quiet, just the ticket for us! Lovely and clean, well appointed, nice big shower and a comfy bed, spot on. Just a 5 minute bimble gets you into town with plenty places to eat and drink. Great stay, many thanks! 😊

Great place, great location and would recommend. One observation the place is not 'easy' to find. Its not that access is a problem but the building does not immediately stand out plus you cannot drive 'up' - Instead you will have to park on a side road - not an issue just be aware, especially if arriving after dark.

Lovely location, could walk to the beach for early morning dip. Nice local restaurants and nice walk to Cardiff bay. The place was nicely decorated but was disappointed that an electric cooker actually only meant two hob rings, no oven, nor microwave. There was an air fryer but it made what we planned to cook impossible. The lights at night that shone in from the front door and side windows from the front, did disturb sleeping, as it is just one room (separate bathroom) so maybe blinds or something over the glass to keep these lights out would be a good idea.
