Reviews
"Had the most amazing time away with 14 of my friends men and women, the house is stunning and work very well with our large group, being March the weather wasn't the best but having the indoor pool was fantastic, will definitely be looking to going here again"
"We had an absolute wicked weekend away for my husbands birthday with some fab friends and family.gutted for Antony and lisa that we where the last 1s to stay because of coronaviras. But we will definitely be going back in the future"
"Such a nice, big, clean house for a large group. Well equipped kitchen for a big group dinner and the hot tub and pool were great fun, even in the February cold!"
"We had a fabulous week at treetops. A family getaway that we all managed to get to! The room sizes are very all good The children could not get enough of the swimming pool and hot tub which were clean and inviting, The pool could be locked and the keys kept out of reach the children which made the area very safe. The little pool room is equipped with seating and a tv and was very popular with us all, although especially popular to our teenagers. The kitchen size and large table along with the additional dining area with table to the side of the kitchen, which our little ones used for games and crafts, was so lovely most of us sat there in the evenings without the need for the TVs. Lisa was professional and had a positive approach to problem solving, The location is stunning for those of us that enjoy rural landscape and we would definitely return to treetops if ever the opportunity for us all to get together comes round again."
"Great location close to shops and lots of walks, also only a 45 minute drive to Cardiff. Super house filled with spacious rooms, clean bathrooms and a wonderful kitchen. The views from the balconies are stunning. The outside area is very pleasant and enclosed, with the pool and hot tub being one of the highlights of our holiday. Lisa the owner replied to any queries very quickly as well. I would highly recommend!"
"What a lovely home! So spacious. So well appointed. Enough of everything from spoons to large dishes. Fab sized fridge/freezer with very handy chilled bottles drawer! The hot tub and covered swimming were used a lot. Ours was a large family get together with a wide range of ages from 8 to 71 but filled our criteria for great get away house. Thank you Lisa and Anthony"
"Peaceful location above the village within a short drive of Abergavenny and local attractions. We had an enjoyable stay enhanced by the fully covered swimming pool (not obvious from the photographs that it's fully enclosed) and the sunny conservatory. The children loved the separate garden conservatory that they used as their own space! Good mixture of beds for our family group with a mix of doubles and twin rooms which suited us well. Owner quickly responded to emails whenever we had an issue. No deductions from the Bond at all (but no inventory at the property on arrival). Reasonably clean premises and all towels and bedlinen good quality. Kitchen items could do with an upgrade but otherwise facilities were generally good. A few lightbulbs and batteries needed attention but nothing that seriously inconvenienced us. It was a well-maintained and spacious property which we enjoyed using."
"Treetops is set in a beautiful location, and with a swimming pool and hot tub we were looking forward to a treat. However, the house itself needs a deep clean. Crumbs inside the sofa, dirty kitchen drawers and the bin lids were absolutely filthy. The garden also needs weeding and the decking could do with a deep clean too. It's a shame as the property is lovely, but it does need some attention paying to it. The boiler let out an awful screeching noise most of the time ( which affected the quality of sleep of our party). When we looked at it, it clearly said the annual service was overdue. Surely this is a safety issue?."
"We booked Treetops for a family get together with adults and children ranging from 2 to 13. The cottage was clean, extremely spacious and very well equipped. Everyone had an amazing time both in the cottage and especially outside using the fabulous pool, hot tub and garden areas for games. I would definitely recommend a stay here."
"17 of us stayed here for my 30th birthday over a weekend in the beginning of March. Sadly it rained all weekend but that didn't stop us enjoying ourselves and walking up the Brecon beacons! The pool and hottub were great fun and enjoyed by all. We cooked numerous times in the kitchen and it fitted all of us in and it was well equipped. There was some lovely walks near by and we found some little pubs which are worth a visit. I was a little apprehensive on booking as some of the reviews mentioned they didn't get their bond deposit back but we had no problems with this at all and the whole process of booking and communication with owner was perfect. She explained that the sat nav will not get you the .... Listen to this advice! It's hard to find. Anyway I Would visit again as I imagine on a sunny weekend this place would be even better!"
"We had a lovely family get together at Treetops. It is situated in a lovely area with plenty to do. We had a lovely walk along the canal and then down to the pub for a bar meal. The house itself is ideal for a large family gathering. It is very well equipped with a large kitchen with all the necessary equipment. There are two large dining tables,one for the adults and one for the children. The bedrooms are light and airy and everywhere is nice and clean. The children especially loved the swimming pool and the adults thought the hot tub was fantastic. A lovely place to stay.We hope to return in the near future. S"
"We had a lovely long weekend at Treetops for a family gathering. There is plenty of space for everyone to be together in the kitchen / dining area, but also for people to have peace and quiet if required in other parts of the house. We made full use of the swimming pool and hot tub, despite the December weather! The view from the hot tub over the village and valley below is delightful. We had a couple of nice walks from the house into the village and along the canal and cycle path."
"I stayed at Treetops for a long weekend for my hen party with 14 other ladies! The house, location, pool and hot tub were all amazing! The house was clean and tidy when we arrived with everything we needed to make our stay super easy. We cooked 2 nights in the ample size kitchen.. and there was plenty of cutlery, plates etc. And having a dishwasher helped a lot too! There's also a number of takeaways who deliver which we used on night 3. For me the best thing about this house is the size.. there's some great communal areas in the lounge and kitchen .. but also so cosy areas where you can get away and relax! Perfect for any group! I now need an excuse to come back!!"
"Had a fantastic time here, very much child friendly, all precautions have been taken to ensure the children come to no harm, made the stay more enjoyable & relaxing not having to worry to much about the children hurting themselves. Cottage was fully equipped for all your needs. Local pub meals where faultless, for us all 16 of us, local place to visit has got to be the Big pit, & very moving. ( & it's free to get in ) & a cheese shop in the same town, Over all you won't be disappointed. Many thanks to Lisa, & Anthony Hicks."
"Wow what can I say, great correspondence from start to finish. It was a beautiful house set in a gorgeous location. The kids loved the swimming pool and we loved the hot tub, so much so we hardly left the property except to go on lovely walks. I would highly recommend x "
"My Mum booked the house for her 70th birthday for a week, this is probably our 15th year away together as a family . The house was very spacious for all 14 of us, particularly with the bad weather we encountered, which meant we were home bound more than we normally would be . Pool and hot tub were great. Unfortunately the bond issue came up around linen which really ruined the experience for my mum . Not once in those 15 years away together have we had part of a bond held back (home and abroad) and the house was not particularly clean when we moved in. Would not recommend the stay based on our experience and other reviews. "
"Treetops has the potential to be a lovely place but the owners let it down. Firstly the heating is restricted to 3 time a day and is off all night, not a problem during the summer months but we went in december! the owners said that there is a log burner and a oil filled radiator. I don't think we were going to keep putting wood on a fire all night long! The oil radiator did nothing!. The tumble dryer was broken, water dripping from a ceiling and a slat broken in the bed all of which i have pictures of. We contacted the owner but nothing was done. We would have let all of this go if it wasn't for the owner taking a large part of our deposit off us. They charged us for extra cleaning time as we apparently left the property so dirty which simply is NOT true. Then also took money off for a microwave plate we apparently chipped, they have an inventory but we didn't get one on arrival! They charged us for bedding, pillow cases and towels that apparently they were not able to get stains out of! Interesting that the choose to use bright white towels! they sent us pictures before they were laundered? But not after? I would not recommend staying here to anyone"
"Located in a quiet village next to the Brecon Abergavenny Canal. This bungalow has 7 bedrooms along with several other rooms to accommodate a large family. There is also plenty of parking spaces along with good security of electric gates. There is a Tesco, Lidl and Waitrose supermarket in nearby Abergavenny town and a small shop in Govilon for your daily papers and bread. Tafarn a Bont is a friendly village pub serving food. The house has a modern kitchen with a dishwasher. The main attraction for kids were the swimming pool and hot tub. There was also a Man Cave next to the hot tub with a tv. Washroom towels and pool towels are provided. An ideal base for a large family to discover this beautiful part of Wales. I would recommend visiting Big Pit, Abergavenny Market and hiring a boat to experience the nearby canal. When we complained of a smell around the pool area, the owner immediately arranged for an engineer to sort out the problem fair play. There is a convenient foot path from the property to the village. Although it was a bit overgrown, it was still quite a handy short cut."
"TreeTops is perfect for get togethers with family and friends. Having just spent a week here it's got something for everyone. Kids in the heated covered pool all day and adults in the hot tub or man cave. Loads of space if you want quiet time and lovely bedrooms and bathrooms for your comfort. Excellent location and aptly named as surrounded by tree tops."
