Afan House Reviews

Great location, everything was so convenient. My family had a great time and we would definitely go back there again.
Georgia
We had a fantastic stay, the views were amazing. The hamper left was a lovely touch and we enjoyed the games and the hot tub! Only bit of feedback would be more mirrors to get ready as with one bathroom and only one in one room was difficult. We would definitely return and recommend!
Following contact with owner we got bath towels 2 days after arrival. The washing machine was not working. Cobwebs hanging in every corner of the living room and entrance. Tea stains on seat and arms of both sofas. Grout around bath edge black with mould in parts Patio door stayed unlocked for 2 days until told how to force it. 3 bags of recycling rubbish at the front entrance. Very long flight of steep uneven stone steps uphill to front door not identified not easy for luggage transfer or the 'older' person. No off road parking which was in details. Value for money only in its location as this is within close family area.
