We had a fantastic stay at Caboodles Cottage. It was clean and comfortable, and had all the amenities we needed (having a place to do laundry was very helpful). The cottage is on a quiet lane that is only a few steps from town. If you've never been to Crickhowell, it is definitely worth a visit--it is a beautiful, scenic town with several lovely shops and pubs, and the people are friendly and welcoming. Whether you're there for a weekend or an extended stay, it's the perfect home base for exploring the area by foot or by car (we did both). We enjoyed our visit, and hope to return someday.
The property was exactly what we were looking for. It was clean and well appointed, the kitchen had everything that we needed, the living room cozy and welcoming and the bedrooms comfortable. As advertised, the space is “cozy”, but for our small family it was perfect. We really enjoyed the location and the town as well. The property is just steps from The Dragon Inn, which had very good pub food and a nice atmosphere. The Bear, also an easy walk from the property, was another historic Inn with good food and a nice beer garden. There is a small market, just steps away and a co-op within walking distance as well. For those that like a good walk, we highly recommend walking from the cottage to the top of Table Mountain. Beautiful views from the top!
Everything I could have hoped for. The cottage was super cute, very clean and well appointed. The location was just off the main street on a quiet lane. A beautiful little town with all amenities you could need. Very accessible for hiking and any transportation. The town's people were so friendly and willing to help with hiking, dining and transportation info. Beautiful scenery even without hiking to the top of a mountain. There is nothing I would have changed.
Enjoyable stay in, a delightful, quiet, cottage well positioned in the centre of Crickhowell with easy access to independent shops and cafes, and pubs. Very comfortable and well appointed cottage with sunny courtyard.
