Written Reviews

"Absolutely fantastic"

"We booked expecting a standard bed and breakfast. How wrong we were. This place is the most outstanding place I have ever had the privilege of staying at. A quaint, beautiful, luxurious cottage in a beautiful setting. Debbie, our hostess, has an incredible eye for detail and was so kind, welcoming, generous, attentive and great fun to talk to. We were made to feel like a king and queen for a day! We cannot speak highly enough of with wonderful gem nestled in the Welsh countryside nor the fabulously talented owner. Can't wait to come back soon".

"I thought about not reviewing this amazing place so as too keep the secret of this hidden gem in Wales to myself. On reflection, who am I to deprive you all of knowing about and going to stay at this wonderful little cottage. Debbie and Colin are fantastic hosts. From the outset Debbie was able to assist us with suggestions of local venues to eat/visit, as well as Colin escorting us in his car to the local pub so that we did not get lost. Logs burning on the fire when we arrived and again when we returned from our sightseeing trip on the second evening. Candles lit by the hot tub, a fridge full of amazing Welsh cheeses/meats produce for breakfast, along with fruit, lots of different drinks and lovely baked goodies. Believe me when I say that the attention to detail and the warm welcome you will receive from your hosts, does make this place special. We will be back again soon, as this place is such a lovely retreat away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life".

"Debbie was amazing and helpful from the very min I contacted her right up until after we stayed. My husband and I needed to get away for a relaxing time together away from the stresses of life and this was exactly what we needed! Debbie made every part of the stay as comfortable for us as possible. The massages we had were just fantastic and reasonably priced. Amazing value for money. The cottages are quaint and well decorated. The place is just lovely, with amazing hot tub, log fire and great surroundings. We will probably be back again soon".

"Wow what a wonderful place this is. Debbie arranged a last minute spa package for myself and my husband for his 50th birthday. Both had a lovely relaxing massage and had exclusive use of spa facilities including outdoor hot tub. Debbie even arranged for a bottle of bubbly for my hubbie! We would love to come back and stay in one of their lovely cottages soon. If you're looking for a relaxing adult only break this place is ideal".

"Stayed for a long weekend with my husband it was very relaxing lovely surroundings. Debbie and Colin are great hosts and made us welcome. Whilst there we both had a lovely back massage and reflexology. What more can I say but we will be returning again this year".

"I had the pleasure of staying at River Mansion with friends for a relaxing Birthday Treat! It couldn't have been more perfect! The owner Debbie couldn't do enough for us and was so kind and accommodating throughout. The rooms were beautiful, with log fire and all your needs met! The hot tub was ready for us, when we turned up and so were some sparkles, all surrounded by beautiful grounds and a Moroccan Theme! We had a spa break, so we had sauna, steam and hot tub, as well as a treatment room, where I must say had the most amazing back massage and facial. I am definitely returning for a romantic break, and have told this experience to friends already! Thank you Debbie for going above and beyond and giving us the best experience!"

"Had an amazing time at River Mansion, truly a lovely place where you can just chill and relax enjoy the facilities including the hot tub, sauna and steam room.

"We stayed at River Mansion for three nights after my son treated us to a spa break. The owners Debbie and Colin made us very welcome and at it felt very homely straight away. Our cottage even had a log burner! We are in our eighties and it was lovely to be pampered in this tranquil place in west wales.  We also enjoyed the sauna, steam and hot tub! My son had treated us to some spa treatments with their gift voucher scheme. Debbie made us lovely breakfasts and Colin helped us with local restaurants and taxi services.  Overall this spa break was a lovely gift from my son and I will be highly recommending River Mansion to my friends. I give this a five star! "

"From the moment we arrived Debbie and her husband Colin could not have made us feel more welcome. The cottage we stayed in was beautifully set in the grounds of the main house which had everything we needed. Accommodation was spotless, comfortable and breakfast was more than we expected. We will definitely be going back. Tips for other travellers
We stayed at the River Mansion as we had booked to see the cabaret at The Llwyndafydd Inn & Monroe's which is on the last Saturday of every month. Fantastic show well worth a visit".
