Angela
The kitchen was well equipped for our cooking needs⦠it had everything we needed for our stay. We especially liked the garden as the sun was shining during our stay, lovely to relax in, chat with friends and safely enclosed for our dogs. Beds were very comfortable & clean â¦the showers were welcoming after a dip in the sea, powerful and hot. A great house for a get together with friends. Thank you David, we will be back in the near future.

Large garden safe for dogs. Beautiful beaches close by.

It has plenty of large rooms and an enormous garden, so there's plenty of space for people to gather together or gain some privacy, as they feel. The three shower rooms are an especial help. The kitchen is very well equipped - maybe over equipped in some ways, but great thought has been given to what's necessary. The village shop is excellent, far better than the average one, as is the fish and chip shop in the village. We would recommend Minffordd to anyone and especially mixed groups.
