The Larches Reviews

Gareth

Lovely remote place to stay. This is completely out of the way and the Welsh border is at the gate. Don’t expect to pop down the local shop or order a take away - you can’t. Nearest shop is 5 miles away so be prepared. The site is at a working farm with sheep everywhere. Little black and white cat comes to see you regularly and was quite happy curled up on the settee. The cabin is quite large and comfortable. The wildlife is spectacular as is the night sky.

Avery warm welcome, and the amenities mark is average, but this does not matter as we was looking for a remote secluded retreat, for which it was perfect although only a 15 minute drive away from everything you need. the location was superb as the rolling hill views and nothing to look at was the view, sheep, red kites and the resident swallows is all we wanted.
