Bunowen Reviews

Susan
This is a beautiful large house with everything you need for a great holiday. Off season when we stayed it was really warm with excellent heating. Plenty of hot water for all the bathrooms and a great kitchen with every appliance you could need. I really recommend a stay here its our second visit and we will return.
Edward
Perfect location for a quiet, relaxing break. The open fire is magnificent! A really outstanding feature. The photos don't do it justice. A great open feel to the whole house. The mezzanine lounge with comfortable sofas and satellite tv (if you need it!) is a lovely space. There were only 2 of us, but this probably would suit a much larger party.
Paraig
This is a fantastic house. It's quite big and very comfortable. I would definitely return here.
George
Spacious and comfortable property with lots to see and do in the area. We visited in summer but once it had been fixed the heating was very effective and would be ideal for anyone wanting a winter holiday there as well. Could use a little updating here and there but that's true of most rental property so not really a factor. We tried lots of cafes and pub/restaurants nearby and could not find fault with the food anywhere. If you want to visit the area, this house is well worth a visit.
Jean Francois
A part les ¨intrusions¨ en notre absence du propriétaire, très beau cottage bien équipé et bien placé.
J
Emplacement merveilleux pour se ressourcer, très beau cottage, très bien avec quelques améliorations (Wonderful location to relax, very nice cottage, very good with some improvements)
P
Very comfortable house in fantastic location. Would be very happy to return and to recommend to others.
