Guests say
Tailor's Cottage in Llandrindod Wells is highly praised for its spaciousness, well-kept garden, and peaceful surroundings. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, the proximity to walks and local attractions, and the friendly owners. The adjacent pub adds to the charm, though a few guests noted minor issues with pub-related noise and maintenance aspects.
The cottage receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning it being well-presented and one of the cleanest cottages stayed in. Only one review mentioned a minor issue with cooking trays, which does not significantly impact the overall high standard of cleanliness.
The location is celebrated for its tranquillity, beautiful surroundings, and access to local walks and attractions. The village's quietness and the proximity to Elan Valley and other sites are frequently mentioned. However, one guest found the location too far from the coast, which slightly affects the score.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, with several reviews highlighting the cosy atmosphere, toasty electric heaters, and comfy beds. The spaciousness and the garden add to the comfort level. A single mention of slippery stairs and springy mattresses suggests room for improvement.
The cottage is well-equipped according to guests, with a special mention of en-suite bathrooms and a secure garden for dogs. However, some reviews suggest that cooking facilities and utensils could be updated, and the lack of a downstairs toilet for disabled guests is noted.
While guests express gratitude for the warm welcome and friendly interactions with the owners, there is insufficient information regarding specific thoughtful gestures or gifts to accurately score this category. Therefore, the score is set to null.

The cottage is in a lovely location and is well equipped. The only problem we had was the toilets for the pub are outside the bedroom window and although the customers are not noisy, if the weather is warm and you have the windows open at night it can disturb your sleep. We went to bed around 10.00pm as we had a early riser four year old with us. Not much in the village for small children unless they enjoy walking.
