We had a lovely 12 night stay. Very peaceful and beautiful walks locally which suited us and the dog perfectly. The cottage was very comfortable, had everything we needed and we liked the 1940s decor. The owner gave us a fantastic tour of the adjacent radar rooms museum. Best holiday we've had for years. ...

A lovely quirky place situated in a beautiful part of Wales. Unfortunately you had to drive to beaches and pubs/restaurants but this wasn’t a deal breaker for us. Overall, we enjoyed our stay although there were a few things that could have been provided but weren’t. ...

So different. The Officer's Mess is a delightful comfy, well equipped adaptation of part of the former RAF Ripperston GCI site, that evoked past memories of Service life in the 1950's yet gave us all the features of modern living but in an unobtrusive way. Our hosts were informative, attentive and most welcoming and deserve great credit for their achievements of restoration throughout the site....
