Reviews from our guests

There are several places where our guests leave us comments.

Not everyone writes in our books – but some people do write by hand in the visitor books in each cottage ( sometimes even signed by the pets! ) Sometimes people forget to write in the book and e mail us later. We faithfully copy these comments as they come in and we upload them here. The only thing we ever hide or alter is the full guest name and address for obvious reasons of privacy.

Secondly we encourage our guests to write about us on the site through which they booked (Trip Advisor, Air B and B, Cottages.com, Freetobook  etc)

As you will see we do have brilliant reviews. They are genuine, not a “fix” and  and its not that nothing ever goes wrong!  Although our standards are very high just occasionally, in the real world,  things are bound to happen. Machines fail, something breaks. The successive good reviews are  because if something does go awry, and if our guests tell us about it  during their stay,  we do move heaven and earth to fix it while those guests are still with us. People greatly appreciate this effort  on our part  and we guarantee  we always make it. If once in a while a review is less than wonderful it is  almost always the case that it was outside our control ( internet down or slow in the whole area for example)  or  sometimes we were  inexplicably only advised about a problem after those guests had departed when there was sadly nothing we could do to make it better.

We’ve had a fantastic weekend. Ideal cottage for six friends. Very cosy, welcoming and so well equipped.
Highly recommend sunday lunch at The Fountain, lovely walk there and back.
We will certainly be returning. Fantastic views and walks. Can’t wait.
So hope to be back soon.
Thank you

We enjoyed our week here. We had good weather apart from the last day, it was made better by tge fact that the golf course is a great place to walk the dogs. Found some kovely walks, fell in love with Usk and the people.
Would come back again.
Thank you for the gifts and the welcome

We had a wonderful week away. Great location and beautiful cottage. We ate at The Black Bear, The Hardwick, Newbridge on Usk and The Angel in Abergavenny.would highly recommend all four for delicious food, particularly The Black Bear just down the road.
Thanks for the yummy vodka and treats, would love to come stay again.
The cooker stopped working and we were very impressed with how quickly you arranged to get it fixed.
