Every surface was gleaming ! There were so many extra little touches just made the stay so special. The facilities are amazing. So much to keep everyone entertained from canoes, bicycles, pool, air hockey, table tennis, jigsaw puzzles, books and Netflix. No chance of anyone say they are bored ! Everything is provided for you so don't worry about packing things like tea towels, kitchen roll and washing powder like you do for most holiday lets. The communication from the owner was first rate. Any queries or questions were answered very quickly before and during our stay. At the end of each holiday we always ask the family, would they stay there again - and this was an immediate 100% YES. ##### Beth G.

My family and I just loved our stay at Caithness. As a homebase to explore all that south Wales has to offer, it was perfect. We were able to do without a car by walking to the nearby rail station, and made use of the bikes to get to the Tesco and shops in Pontypool. The amenities in the house are second to none. Alex has put so much thought and care into every little detail. It was probably the most well appointed holiday home I’ve stayed in. The shower in the master bath was a dream! The beds comfortable, with a stunning view. I’ll not soon forget watching the sun rise from bed in that gorgeous room. Thank you, Alex for being such a tremendous host and helping us have such a great family vacation. :) Jane ##### Jane S.

Modern well designed house with great furnishings. We loved using the games room, relaxing in the separate living room, entertaining at the large kitchen table, bbq'ing on the spacious well furnished deck, and relaxing in the perfectly appointed bedrooms. Each morning we enjoyed either walking, paddling, or riding the canal with the provided bikes and boats. With a Tesco 5 minutes drive away, neighborhood pubs close by, gorgeous countryside all around, and easy access to the motorways it was the ideal place to base ourselves for our family visits around Wales. Thanks so much Alex for creating and sharing such a lovely space. ##### David G. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nick F. 18 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautifully kept property We had a lovely long weekend at Caithness.

We stayed 11 days and did not want to leave. Our party of 4 adults, 1 small child and 1 toddler had so much space. The views and location are amazing. The cleanliness and facilities are fantastic. It was as if the owners knew what we needed even before we did; from the bike lock, toiletries, shopping bags, matches (for our little boys' 2nd birthday candles), drawing pads and books for the little kids and the combination pool/air hockey/ping pong table for the big kids. Everyone loved the deck, row boat and BBQ. This property far exceeded our expectations. Hope to return in the near future as it is an ideal base to visit family and explore South Wales. ##### Melinda Y.

After visiting Paris and London we headed here to see where according to Ancestry.com says 98% of my ancestors came from (and then migrated to Welsh Hills, Ohio…funny name for a bunch of Welch to settle). Of all the places we stayed on our trip, everyone voted this one the best. It was a beautiful place with a porch overlooking a landscaped yard stretching down to the canal. Six bedrooms and we only needed two and we didn’t need share bathrooms with our 20 year old daughter! I have to admit the driveway was a bit of a challenge for us folks from across the pond that drive on the correct side of the road. We were having enough problems making turns into the correct lanes and going around the roundabouts clockwise instead of counterclockwise (anticlockwise). So we parked on the street, which was only another five feet or so away, so it posed no problems. Up until now we’d been staying in cities and the silence at night was astounding, as were the sounds of the birds in the morning. I can’t remember ever hearing and seeing so many song birds in my life. ##### Pete J. Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### carole Bryce 24 Apr 2019 #### Fantastic property very spacious, everything you need spotlessly clean Highly recommend this property for a family get together lots of space and rooms something for all ages . Walk or cycle to the star inn bridge 62 turn to your left. Walk through a small cut way opposite the house turn right to get to the other side of the canal for the tow path . Recommend drive out to Brecon Beacons on small road fantastic views and go on the Brecon railway steam train go in the morning and walk halfway back down get a cup of tea then catch the train back down . Great cheap day out. We will come back another time to be able to sit out on the lovely balcony. ##### carole Bryce Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa W. 22 Oct 2018 #### Amazing house .

My family of 6 adults and 4 children, ages from 1 to 63, spent a wonderful few days at Caithness. The house, inside and out, is even better than the pictures. Everything you need is provided, the quality of linen,towels,furniture and fittings is excellent. Our first full day, there was so much to do, no-one except the Oldies went out, and we only went to the very handy supermarket for provisions. The games room was a huge success for adults and children, the pool table / air hockey being the favourites. The rowing boat and fishing from the garden, were first experiences for my Grandchildren and they had lots of fun. We all had a wonderful time and excursions were made to Cardiff, Newport and Tredeger House. ##### Marion F.

Instructions regarding various equipment etc was very clear.Communication with the owners was great. We were a mixed family group and all catered for from 5mths upwards. Plenty of airy bedrooms with generous sized beds; and cots and high chairs for the little ones. Great internal entertainment with a well equipped games room and plenty of TV's around the house; good wifi. Externally the bottom of the garden is bordered by the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal - we used the treasure trove of kayaks and rowing boat kept in the dry undercroft with mountain bikes. A wonderful place to be based at for a wedding weekend in South Wales. Thank you. ##### Caryl B.

Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colin P. 2 Jan 2018 #### Brilliantly appointed, comfortable, warm home with great views over the canal and rolling fields Well equipped and very welcoming house, warm, and really comfortable accommodation. Fantastic games/cinema room was a real bonus! It was a Christmas stay so too cold for use of kayaks, but the provision of bikes and boats was thoughtful, and the bikes were used along the canal path once or twice! Thoughtful owners made the stay very easy (and great Christmas lights and decorations thank you!), plenty of information, all well organised and to hand. Bedrooms all comfortable, and excellent bathroom facilities including a spacious walk-in wet room shower. Plenty of TVs provided in rooms too. A really pleasant, enjoyable stay. ##### Colin P.

We were a party of 12 family members aged from 9 months to mid fifties Absolutely everything you could wish for was provided, from the smallest thing such as enough cutlery/plates etc, to the boat/bikes and kayaks. All of the beds were wonderfully comfortable (my eldest daughter actually found the tag on her mattress, so she could look it up in order to buy one!) The house was spotless when we arrived and directions and access to the house instructions were really helpful. We found the information book detailing shops, restaurants and takeaway places available nearby really handy. We had a lovely long walk along the canal, and found a nice local park and swimming pool nearby, but probably didn’t do enough ‘exploring’ as we were all so relaxed! However, every member of our party wants to return, so we’ll save that for next time! This property is a real gem, and easily accommodates large groups very very comfortably-we will definitely be booking again in the future. ##### Deb B.

The house is immaculate and ideally situated for lots of nearby attractions. Within the house itself everything was thought of, the eldest loved the pool table and Netflix. The youngest just enjoyed all the space to run around in and everyone enjoyed the views and the general homely feel. Would love to visit again and an extra thanks from everyone for all the Easter treats 😀 ##### Nic G. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Great House Hotel & Restaurant](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Great-House-Hotel-Restaurant.h2243266.Hotel-Information) > > [Brambles 66 static caravan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Brambles-66-Static-Caravan.h40215457.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel St David's, Nr Chester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Deeside-Hotels-Village-Hotel-St-Davids.h903462.Hotel-Information) > > [Caravan to rent trecco bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Caravan-To-Rent-Trecco-Bay.h40005587.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Newport Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Mercure-Newport-Hotel.h46182979.Hotel-Information) > > [Trearddur Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holyhead-Hotels-Trearddur-Bay-Hotel.h15717627.Hotel-Information) > > [Court Colman Manor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Court-Colman-Manor.h3551641.Hotel-Information) > > [The Wild Hare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Wild-Hare.h32514454.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Park Pontypridd, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Heritage-Park-Hotel-Leisure-Club.h1668045.Hotel-Information) > > [Macdonald Plas Talgarth Holiday Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Machynlleth-Hotels-Macdonald-Plas-Talgarth-Holiday-Resort.h13232286.Hotel-Information) > > [Raglan Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Usk-Hotels-Raglan-Lodge.h20064801.Hotel-Information) > > [Château Rhianfa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Menai-Bridge-Hotels-Chateau-Rhianfa.h5103718.Hotel-Information) > > [Quay Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Conwy-Hotels-Quay-Hotel-And-Spa.h1517268.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott St. Pierre Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-St-Pierre-Marriott-Hotel-Country-Club.h65879.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Bridgend Cardiff M4](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Bridgend-Cardiff-M4.h1223160.Hotel-Information) > > [Herons Lake Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mold-Hotels-Herons-Lake-Retreat.h33266089.Hotel-Information) > > [Tre-Ysgawen Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llangefni-Hotels-Tre-Ysgawen-Hall.h3499549.Hotel-Information) > > [The Huntsman Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Huntsman-Hotel.h42672465.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Magor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Magor.h63748.Hotel-Information) > > [Llanerch Vineyard Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Llanerch-Vineyard-Hotel.h5705762.Hotel-Information) > > [Wye Valley Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Wye-Valley-Hotel.h18445057.Hotel-Information) > > [Vale Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Vale-Resort.h1057564.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibis Budget Newport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Newport.h6172748.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Portmeirion & Castell Deudraeth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penrhyndeudraeth-Hotels-Hotel-Portmeirion-Castell-Deudraeth.h10075714.Hotel-Information) > > [Beaufort Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mold-Hotels-Beaufort-Park-Hotel.h912336.Hotel-Information) > > [Lion Quays Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oswestry-Hotels-Lion-Quays-Hotel-Spa.h1379396.Hotel-Information) > > [Belvilla Newport City Centre Hotel - Lifestyle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Silurian-Hotel.h69221774.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greyhound Inn & Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Greyhound-Inn-Hotel.h21560730.Hotel-Information) > > [The Coed-Y-Mwstwr Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Coed-Y-Mwstwr-Hotel.h3717304.Hotel-Information) > > [Tŷ Magor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Ty-Hotel.h3928584.Hotel-Information)
