Cottage in Rowen by River & Pet-Friendly Trails

An amazing, idyllic location, the river at the back of the cottage was beautiful, really enjoyed sitting in the afternoon after a long walk and chilling. A lovely local pub, super friendly. Plenty of walks from the door. Read other reviews down grading here because of lack of lamps in living room, just move a lamp from one of the 3 bedrooms? Gardener had been while we were out and had swept the patio area, but just be aware it could be a bit slippery if its rained and they haven't been yet. Really comfortable bed. Fully kitted out kitchen, although you will need to bring your own salt,pepper and oil, and bring your own tea and coffee, amd shower gel. Not all places supply them.

On arrival one of the patio doors onto the back terrace didn’t work so messy outside the only cloth that was there was on the floor in the garden no oven gloves no plastic glasses the frying pan was so tiny (5 people are supposed to be able to stay) no tv Netflix worked sometimes it was not particularly well cleaned the dust and cobwebs were bad wellington boots just flung on the terrace and neighbours dog comes in (no gate ) and fouls in the front garden and broken garden furniture it’s such a shame as Rowen is so beautiful

Beautiful location, very peaceful. Not luxurious or highly maintained, which was a bit disappointing given the description. No dog equipment so if you are bringing a dog make sure you pack bowls, towels etc.

Can't recommend staying with Finest retreats. When we arrived at the property the only toilet was clearly broken. It was the kind of issue that would have been obvious when the property was being turned over between guests and we were disappointed not to have been warned/offered alternative accomodation or a refund in advance. To be fair the host did arrange a handyman to come round to take a look - but when they were unable to fix the issue the host effectively said "sorry about this, oh dear we'll need to order parts then". Which for the prices being charged to stay here was not great. In addition to this issue the house was dusty with a lot of cobwebs when we arrived (seemed like it might have been a while since the last guests), there was damage In the kitchen (dishwasher door ripped off with exposed nails), damage in the bedroom (clothes rail coming off the wall) and the hoover was broken. All in all not the best place we've stayed at and definitely not good value for Money
