Reviews of Ysgubor Pwlliago
"What an amazing place to stay. Even better than the pictures. As a group of friends that are also keen walkers we go on holiday together a couple of times a year and have been doing so for the past 8 years. This is certainly a contender for the best place we've ever stayed. Ticked all our boxes and then some. Living accommodation is ideal, lots of space but still feels like a cosy cottage too. Plenty of seating for everyone (not as common as you would think). Owners were nearby - helpful and friendly but not intrusive. The hot tub is huge and I can't imagine you will find a better view anywhere else. Beautiful walks from the door, proper country pubs down the lane, animals everywhere - the number of pheasants at this time of year are quite a spectacle. Perhaps annoying if you lived there, but we loved them. If you want somewhere peaceful and remote - no phone signal, limited Wifi, then this is the absolute perfect place. We got back last week and are all missing the place a lot. I cannot recommend it enough."

"The surrounding countryside is outstanding, the view from the hot tub is truly beautiful. Very spacious, well planned internal facilities, warm and cosy. The kitchen had every amenity and we arrived to find a bara-brith on the table, very welcoming. Internet radios in each sitting room, plenty of wood for the wood burning stoves, well organised recycling. Thoroughly recommend it for a large family get together."

"This place is fantastic and well worth booking, I loved the fact there was no mobile phone signal so no one from work could get hold of me! The walks from the barn are brilliant, we did an evening walk up the hill and the views were stunning and a walk down to the local pub and a round robin to the oldest church in Wales and back to our place which took about 4 hours. The owners are lovely and were on hand if we needed them, the dogs and sheep were great to hang out with and the barn itself was amazing, very clean and well looked after. We had 7 adults, 3 dogs and a baby and we were all entertained for the whole week. If you want a relaxing break away from everything then this is the place to visit. Asda deliver to this address so with a quick online shop you have everything you need!"

"It really felt like a home from home, with the house immaculately furnished and clearly no expense spared. The hot tub really did make it for us! The owners lived just far enough away to give us our own space, but close enough that I could lend some tonic from them! They are lovely people, even unpacking our food shop for us before we got there - a real credit to the property! We would all come back in a heartbeat!"

"Love this place stayed last year for my 40th and this year for my sisters 40th. It's spotless, home form home and more, I want to move in. Love Emmrys and his wife, spend more time outside in the fields with The kids and the sheep than indoors. The views are stunning and the surrounding countryside is great for lovely walks. You don't need to leave the lodge. My parents and relatives have booked already for a week. We can't stay away !"

What made it especially good was the interaction with the farmer who let the kids feed the sheep. We actually felt like part of the furniture when we left. Already booked for next year."

We were all enthralled by the new born lambs in the fields and the adjacent barn. Mr Jones and his team were generous to a fault in allowing the younger members of the party to hold them. The house is very well furnished and equipped. Minor issues were quickly and effectively dealt with by Mrs Jones. We loved the space available and made full use of it, including the hot tub. The walk up into the hills from the farm is phenomenal and our spaniel was happy to be off his lead on such different territory. It wouldn't though suit a dog who might chase sheep. I'd go back there in a heartbeat."
