The Best
Amazing place to spend a relaxing week. Excellent accommodation, a home not a holiday let, one of the best you will ever find. Loads of facilities nearby, shops, tourist places, walks a great pub, short trip to Cardiff. Central for The Gower, Brecon etc. Superb location.
The hosts could not be more welcoming or friendly. Wendy and Ian were absolutely delightful.

Country Gem!
We had a delightful week at this beautiful property, It was comfortable and fully equipped. On arrival we were met by Wendy who was very welcoming and she allowed us early entry to the property which we much appreciated. The countryside around St Lythan's is very beautiful and convenient for all main tourist attractions in South Wales.

An Exceptional Stay
We had a magnificent time in these lovely guest quarters: spacious, comfortable, immaculate, fully equipped – and with stunning views across the countryside. Our delightful hosts, Wendy and Ian, were always available to answer questions or provide information. The property is close to Cardiff and other areas of interest such as St. Fagan's National Museum of History. We have stayed in many VRBO rentals, but this one was among the very best!

Comfortable home in quiet and peaceful spot
We felt right at home in this lovely rental property; everything was extremely comfortable, clean and stylish. Plus the location in the countryside with the peace and quiet, with rural views, was exactly our speed. We hope to make this our 'go to' rental from now on for our regular visits to the area.

We had a great stay. For us, this bungalow is perfect. Everything from the layout, decor, facilities, parking and location are spot on and its peaceful and quiet! We've stayed in well over 100 rental holiday homes over the years, and this has to be one of the very best.
Wendy and Ian are easily contactable and are incredibly helpful and thoughtful owners.
A very lovely place. We will definitely stay again!
