Alltybrain Farm Cottages

8/10 Good
"I stayed in the Hayloft. My hosts could not have been more charming. The Hayloft was beautifully furnished and much care had gone into it. The one thing that I think let it down was the quality of the beds - 4 singles - the mattress lacked support and you could actually feel the springs in it. I think a mattress upgrade would match the high quality bedding that is provided. The only other thing was that the fridge was switched off and open when I arrived. Maybe this is the way it is done in Britain, but I did miss having somewhere cold to put drinks / supplies, arriving on a hot summer evening. Food for thought. That said, this is high quality accommodation."
