Great place for a quiet weekend away with family. The house had everything and was very spacious. The hottub was a great addition. The area was lovely and the views were amazing.
Fantastic property, stunning views, very helpful customer service. Can't complain at all the say was perfect.
Just everything about the Heather pod was amazing,great location with the most beautiful view outside the pod, I couldn’t recommend it enough and I can’t wait to come back already
Fantastic location, and beautiful lodges with excellent facilities. It was lovely watching the waves from our hottub on the decking!
I booked this as a surprise trip for my wife’s 30th birthday and baby moon. She requested as quiet getaway before the baby arrives. The views was spectacular and the owners left a very detailed folder of rules and they introduced themselves in the folder and gave several scenic routes like Tenby. And they also left leaflets on what you can do on the stay. Over all I will be going back. The wife loved her surprise and her experience of wales. Thank you for having us
The most lovely remote place for a stay! Had such a great 2 nights.. will definitely recommend this to all my family! The owners dad was so nice! He popped over at the beginning of our stay and gave us attraction recommendations (which were great). 10/10.
Will definitely return again soon , what a gem . Was spotlessly clean and had everything we need for a lovely long weekend. They thought of everything from the hot tub to the wood burner deco to a high standard . Thank you was perfect xx
This place ticked all the boxes, wonderful comfortable living area/kitchen with everything we needed. Bedrooms really comfy too. The outside area with the hot tub is amazing with the most relaxing of views.
Definitely recommend this property to all,it was clean and had all the facilities you would need for a short break, washing machine, dryer,dish washer and very good wifi. We all throughly enjoyed our stay and are booking again for Christmas. The hosts were excellent and looked after us very well.
We have just stayed for a week at bryncylla and we loved every minute!!!! We were celebrating my husbands 40th birthday and it was the perfect setting. The owner is really friendly and welcoming. Gwyneth was so kind and thoughtful, she arranged a balloon and a beautiful welcome pack for us. The views, birds and peaceful environment are wonderful, and experiencing them from the hot tub was the best!! The cottage has everything you would want in regards to the facilities and accessories. We had a wonderful week and there are lovely places to visit nearby, although the cottage itself is en...more
Amazing location with lovely views. 4 of us stayed and with a little one , we all had an super time . Not too far from a little life ( shops,restaurants etc) . The property was very clean and had a lovely design. We will be returning at some point ! Thanks for having us
The lodge was beautiful, clean and we had everything we needed. The hosts were brilliant at keeping in touch to ensure we had the best stay. The location was perfect, very peaceful with plenty to do/visit. Would 100% recommend and visit again!
We had the most amazing stay at Tulip. From the relaxing nights enjoying the hot tub, to the local charm of Rhayader, and the beautiful natural landscapes, we didn't want to leave! The birthday hamper with a sign, balloons, and cupcakes (all set up for us before we arrived) was a nice extra treat. We would definitely come back.
Lovely peaceful stay at the salmon facilities Lovely and spacious along with everything you needed inside. The hot tub was a lovely finishing touch.
Having stayed in a shepherd hut last year, we booked 2 pods for a family stay and it was as wonderful as the first. The pods had everything we needed and was comfortable and warm. We would definitely stay again.
This is our second time staying at woodland view and we absolutely love it, perfect gated garden for the dog to have zoomies. Always clean and tidy on arrival and the views are to die for a little piece of heaven , with plenty of places to explore. Looking forward to returning.
The hut was beautiful, both inside and out. It had everything we needed for a two night stay. A stunning area, very peaceful, perfect for a quiet, chilled few nights away. The hot tub was relaxing set up under cover, the bed was comfortable, and the log burner made the hut super cosy. Shops and takeaways 10 minutes away and stunning walks and views near by. Check in was easy, just as described online. Will definitely return.
We had a lovely time at the Mayflower and we are already looking at dates to come back. It was snowing the first night so we ordered a take away (Evans Plaice) as recommended which was lovely with the fire going. Then got into the comfiest bed to watch Netflix. The underfloor heating was great for when it was cold but not quite cold enough to need a fire. Hot tub instructions were clear and easy to understand. All utensils, kitchenware, towels and fire wood/kindling provided. We have already recommended to family and friends and cannot wait to come back ourselves.
The pod faces open country side, which is the wow factor. Pod has everything you need to cook (if you need to), wet room and proper bed, with a hot tub as as a bonus.,
Absolutely stunning place and views, was a very relaxing time loved the hot tub and the baby lambs in the garden Would definitely recommend as a romantic get away The garage was a 10/10 worth every penny
Excellent stay, highly recommend. Clean and tidy, everything you need for a weekend stay. Hot tub is a bonus, will be returning.
Myself and my partner loved our stay here! The views were beautiful, the pod was lovely and spacious! We had a great time visiting the local area and going to the beautiful lake Vrywyn! Would definitely recommend this stay to anyone!
I brought my fiance here for a birthday get away. The place was perfectly clean, well presented, amazing views and really nice welcome gifts. The host was great, and even though it’s not cheap, it’s worth the money. I will definitely be looking to return!
We stayed at the Hayloft with our chidren and grand children for our sons 40th birthday and had a fabulous time. It is a lovely and well equipped house.
Wow! This place is truly beautiful if u want peace and relaxation go here! Everything u need home from home. We have stayed many yrs in Wales and come across this site so glad we booked. We was blown away! My child also loved it here. Hottub was so warm an clean. Star glazing unbelievable. And the fire pit fabulous. We booked the extra options of wood. Cupcakes an breakfast pack. Very nice! Its a 10/10 the owners have smashed it here. Showers was very clean. Not far to walk. Glamping tent warm. We was very comfortable. 100% recommended Can't wait to come back! Thanks guys!
Best Glamping experience ever! We had the bedt time. The kids loved it can’t recommend this place enough. Will definitely be booking in the future.
The accommodation was perfect with everything we could have needed for our short stay. We were given a leaflet to help with any questions about our stay which was very helpful! The weather was also great during our stay so the views from the outside was absolutely lovely.
First time visit to this place and I wasn't disappointed, what a lovely place for a few days rest, everything you need on site, great play area for the kids, indoor swimming pool was great. Cafe are was also good, would have been nice to of maybe a little shop on site so you do some cooking,maybe an idea for future, all the team there was lovely they couldn't do enough, had a few flys in the cabin ut I think that was mainly being near the pond, nothing you can't handle though,was great that ther was a privacy screen around the tub,just perfect, will defo be going back.
We truly enjoyed our weekend away in the Fern - Beacon View Pod. The pod was very well equipped and cosy. We loved the hot tub and the views. I highly recommend this place for a nice romantic quiet weekend, it's the perfect place to turn off your phones and just enjoy each other and nature.
Beautiful Shepards hut perfect for a romantic trip away very comfortable and relaxing, hot tub incredible.
The pod is gorgeous and has everything you could need in there. It’s quiet and relaxing, and the views are beautiful!
Fabulous place with fantastic facilities for families with young children including pets. Staff were really friendly and very helpful. Property was beautiful and in a good location. Can’t fault anything 10/10
Second stay here now, we stayed in the shepherds hut previously and this time did the converted horse lorry as had our son and dog with us. Faultless stay again, fantastic peaceful rural location, clean and well equipped accommodation with plenty of fenced outside space just for our accommodation to use.
Perfect in every way, the location and views are hard to beat, the accommodation was immaculately clean with a lovely selection of treats supplied. Ample parking and peace and quiet, we will definitely be returning.
Lovely little spot. Perfect for the dogs plenty of room to run around. Inside was spotless and deceivingly spacious, Hot tub nice touch as well. Couple of mins in the car to the pub. Red kite feeding is worth a visit!
We have just returned from spending Christmas here as a family of 6. The property is beautiful. The photos don't do it justice. So spacious, clean and homely. Property is well furnished with everything you could possibly need. The owner was very responsive in the run up to our holiday and throughout. We had a slight problem with the heating during our stay and a plumber was sent out within hours to rectify the issue. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property and we will be looking to return in the future.
We had a really enjoyable stay at the hobbit hole. The location was beautiful. Really peaceful area and loved seeing the alpacas. The hot tub was great as well - top tip don't overheat the fire too much - if you think it might not be hot enough get in and check as it probably is! We loved that everything you needed was there and especially enjoyed having an air fryer to use! Loved it and would definitely book again. Claire was really helpful and we loved the Victoria sponge from Claires mother in law! Thanks for a lovely stay for our 15 yr anniversary.
we stayed at Kestrel cottage 4 adults (friends) and two boys aged 10 and 12 on the 8th December. It was a quiet peaceful place, beautiful scenery and it was an exceptionally clean property to stay in. All the equipment we had the need of was provided. The place was spotless. Very rural but we were happy with that. We had taken dvd’s to use and board games to place. The swimming pool was lovely, sauna was a welcome addition too. We would all return in a heart beat. Great value for money and a perfect place to unwind
We had a wonderful stay in the beautiful buck barn cabin, the cabin was excellent & the location was fabulous Everything was of high spec & well presented & clean, even though there were a few cabins on site they were spaced well so you still had your privacy We loved our stay & our little girl loved it even more We will 100% be booking to come back again
I would love to go there again...only there are few spider webs in a Pod, otherwise Whatta lovely place and ambience to stay...
We recently stayed at the valley view hobbit home for a joint birthday weekend. The home was spotless, accommodating and the perfect place for peace and quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will return in the future!
We love it here and have already booked for our 3rd time next year. The calmness and idylic surroundings make this place one of the best to stay at. The personal touches from Claire and David make it a home from home and the homemade victoria sponge cake made by Claire for each new family is delicious. We always book with the hot tub and enjoy the nightly soak outside with a glass of fizz, during the day you can sit there in the middle of no-where with only the alpacas to feed its wonderful. We love it here and anyone thats books to stay in any of the 3 hobitat homes will not be disppointed. W...more
We loved our short stay here. The accommodation was excellent and comfortable. The alpaca provided lots of interest for the kids .The views were great with great stargazing from the hot tub.
We had a lovely stay and really appreciated the large secure garden for our dog. Customer service was excellent and flexible after we had car trouble and weren’t sure we’d be able to leave by checkout time. Really appreciate the understanding and flexibility! Would definitely book again.
I stayed previously with my sister, two children and two dogs. This time I came back with my partner for a more relaxing stay! Both times my stay has been amazing. It has everything you need to cook with. It's lovely and cosy of an evening. The only thing I struggled with both times is finding the correct turn into the site! Will definitely be back again.
Everything was as expected clean and lovely and quiet will definitely stay again and recommend to friends and family
My husband and I had a lovely, relaxing stay at Rose. Check in was super easy and the little shepherds hut was in a lovely quiet area which felt secluded around the hot tub area and plenty of space if you have a four legged friend with you! Everything was thought of and the hut is brilliantly laid out and all space was utilised perfectly, not cramped at all. We were gutted that we only booked two nights there as we definitely wanted to stay for longer. We’ve already recommended to friends and family! Thank you Holiday Wales!
Second stay in the pods. Spotlessly clean. Premium finishes, dishwasher, oven, hob and microwave. Highlight is the hot tub and views over fields with lambs. Only scored down on location as it may be remote for some and not walkable to the nearest town Rhayader which is scenic with river walk, red kite feeding farm, co-op for essentials. Careful planning would remove the issue. We cooked pizzas, lasagne and bacon baps during our 2 night stay. We toasted marshmallows on the fire pit and star gazing is amazing here. Only downside for us was the position of the new park and goal posts has obscu...more
Our first stay here and I can honestly say it won’t be our last. We have stayed locally previously so we knew we liked the area and there was plenty to do nearby, but during this visit we barely left the bungalow. It was so clean on arrival, we had very sweet gifts left for us by the owner (the cupcakes were incredible!), and it felt like a home away from home. We settled in so quickly - views were stunning, comfortable furniture, and everything we could need was already supplied, it’s all very well thought out. Despite the garden being near the roadside it was very private, and felt secure fo...more
Absolutely loved it. Will definitely be back. Extremely peaceful, calm and restful. The whole place was clean
A fabulous stay in a spotlessly clean and comfortable shepherd's hut. Cosy and warm with everything we could need. The enclosed garden was a huge bonus for our dog. The hot tub is a great feature and we were lucky to see red kites overhead whilst enjoying the valley views from the tub. Would have no hesitation in recommending for a relaxing break.
We had the most wonderful time & really felt we were away from the stresses of life. The Prancing Pony is quirky, comfortable & the shower amazing. Having the hot tub was a lovely touch too & what a way to watch the sunset with a glass of wine! So lovely to have all the animals close by too! Host was lovely & welcoming. Only had to feed back front door not closing properly but only to help not because it was a problem. Can’t recommend this enough - just fantastic & a wonderful way to celebrate a silver wedding anniversary, away from it all! Thank you!!
We stayed in the Highland View shepards hut and we loved it! The hut is perfect and kitted out really well. The views are beautiful and we loved watching out over them when sitting in the hot tub, and it’s only a short drive down into the town. Elan Valley isn’t too far of a drive away to be able to go walking and seeing all the amazing Dams too. It’s been a beautiful break away for us and we will definitely be looking to come back again!
Had an amazing time beautiful views good local information provided, very clean would definitely come back again and recommend to people
Absolutely loved staying in this cabin, perfect set up for a weekend away, easy to find and access. Hot tub was a massive win and little girl thoroughly enjoyed it. Will definitely be back.
Beautiful place, very romantic, perfect gateway for anyone who’s taking a break with furry babies. We spent 4 days at sunflower with gorgeous views, privacy and a high standard Equipment! If you looking for plenty of places to do some hiking and exploring combined with evening relaxation in a hot tub and an open fire then don’t hesitate just make your booking!! Worth every penny!
Thoroughly enjoyed our cosy , tranquil and relaxing stay here. Fab accommodation, comfortable bedding and great facilities. Highly recommend d. Amazing for families too
The trip itself was breathtaking, we are hikers enjoyed the atmosphere and landscapes we took in on the various walks where we stayed. We’ve stayed in Wales a few times now so it’s nice to try various locations. The place itself was unique and tranquil. The skylight while laying in bed was nice. However, please note with no blinds or curtains you’ll be sure for an early wake up when the sun rises. We’ve stayed in lots of holiday Lets and air B&Bs trying to get away every few months. Normally we have a binder with the dos and don’ts, and what we’re expected to do as everyones rules are dif...more
We stayed during February half term at Beacon view barn, our daughter and two teenage granddaughters stayed next door at the same time. The views are amazing and fantastic, especially of hills and sheep. There are many narrow and sometimes steep country lanes all around the location. The lanes are quieter being the location is rural. Beacon View Barn has everything facility wise that you would expect, including an honesty box is case you have forgotten anything (toiletries wise). We took all our food (everything is quite a distance away, including shops) for the mid week that we were the...more
Absolutely wonderful stay. My family and I enjoyed every minute. The goat invasion was a welcome surprise!
We stay here for 2nights for a birthday celebration! It was a lovely find! Very dog friendly, perfect location for dog walks! The cabin was lovely, hot tub was a lovely touch! Nice to chill out in after long day walking! Definitely will return in the future! John n kerrie very helpful! Sam, Rob n trixie! Xx
We had the best time here, the location is perfect, the pod itself is beautiful and very convenient. I’ll happily come back again.
Had a lovely time at Panteg. The location was superb and secluded, situated next to a lovely river. The accommodation was well kept and tidy and was a wonder to stay in. Hot tub was lovely and comfortable. There are some lovely horses in the fields next to the home and they are friendly. Would recommend!
The accommodation was outstanding with simply the best view. Loved my stay and will be looking to stay again but this time for longer!! Would 10/10 recommend to everyone.
Very impressed with the lodge as soon as we arrived. Cosy and feels homely inside. Top of the range appliances which made it very enjoyable. One thing that would have been nice would be a microwave as with these sorts of stays, we prepared our meals with this expectation. One more thing would be a mat on the floor inside the lodge as it rained while we were there and we ended up having to sacrifice one of our towels from home to avoid wet footprints inside. Overall, would definitely stay again and really enjoyed this. Will be recommending to friends and family.
Lovely stay at the kingfisher- host couldn’t do more - very helpful, decorated the hut including a cake for my girlfriend and offered to be a taxi for us if needed. Was lovely to get away with no signal and chill in lovely surroundings- even the thunderstorms didn’t ruin our weekend. Would go back again. Feedback from girlfriend- send the dogs down to say hello more often :)
We had a weekend perfect stay. The cottage has so much character and style . Perfectly equipped and stunning views
A great property - well thought out and nicely decorated. The owners have thought about creating a ‘home from home’. Lovely to have a secure garden for the dogs and the use of a hot tub. Fabulous location for the Elan Valley (which we highly recommend). Unfortunately, a few things let it down (it wasn’t cheap to stay but you don’t mind paying when the quality is there); On arrival, there was dog mess on the decking and cigarette ends next to the hot tub. Even as dog owners, this is unacceptable. We fully appreciate the owners are renovating the old building next to the lodge, however, the huge...more
Lovely accommodation,easy to find,very clean,fab views- tasty eggs and lemon cake in honesty booth at entrance -cattle very quiet and lively Pygmy goats around - Red kites flying overhead - and nice weather made for a superb weekend - went to Red kites feeding nearby and tour of the dams was spectacular.
We had the most incredible weekend at Meadow Retreat in Rhayader. Surrounded by farm animals and nature as far as the eye can see our stay was so peaceful. Our cabin was so clean, comfortable and had absolutely everything we needed. Claire and the rest of the crew went absolutely above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We even extended our stay by a night because of the snow! The hot tub was incredible, and we enjoyed every minute in it! There was also a fire pit and we were provided with wood so that we could make a bonfire. Best stay ever! Would recommend 100 t...more
I was so impressed with the the whole site, and most especially with our personal Hut, which was beautifully set up and presented. Just a two night stay was so restful and restorative.
Lovely break away cabins are perfect this is our second time staying here we've loved it everything perfect. Bathroom a little worn but everything else is spot on would definitely recommend. ☺️
Very difficult to find. Floor to bathroom giving way, very cold even with heating.Poor lighting out.
Location was perfect, quiet and remote just what we wanted could not fault the location. Just a few little niggles which we found frustrating and just took the edge off our stay. Pod sleeps 6 but there were only 5 plates, broken glasses in the cupboard, rubbish left down side of bed (was the pod cleaned properly) no oven trays so could not use the oven, there were two microwaves which meant literally no work top space. Fly trap paper hanging from the ceiling directly above the hob!
Super relaxing break, lovely views super warm and cosy great garden for dogs. Could do with more information on walks and would benefit having a little shop on site, but a great place to stay plenty of space and lovely got tub
Beautiful place, owners very helpful, very kind, some great walks, disappointed the local pub is closed ! 2 mile walk to pub but around great place to stay…
Cae Llwyn Breaks is fantastic, Hares Rest was great accomodation. The location is beautiful and very peaceful, lots of wildlife to see whilst relaxing in the hot tub. I will be back!
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Hare's View Lodge! The breathtaking views are truly captivating and hard to beat, setting the scene for a relaxing or activity-packed getaway—whatever you make of it. The accommodation itself is spacious, spotlessly clean, well-equipped, and clearly well looked after. If I had to mention a minor detail, it’s that the seating area could be a bit more comfortable for a family of four. The corner seating is up against the lodge’s curved walls, so it’s a bit tricky to sit upright. A couple of bean bags or extra seating options would make it perfect, but th...more
Lovely location, the shepherds hut was a great experience. Was perfect for two nights. Nice hot tub with amazing views.
The cabin is in a perfect location! Quiet and tranquil so ideal for a nice getaway. We went on a cold weekend so could have done with an extra blanket but would 100% go back!
What a fantastic farmhouse this is for a large group. Totally fulfilled every expectation we had for my 70th birthday with family and friends. Even tho it was a cold month the house was always lovely and warm. The hot tub was a great bonus and we had lots of fun in it, always hot and well maintained. Recommend this lovely venue for a large gathering
We had a fantastic time at Valley View Pod. We were so lucky with the weather, it was beautiful being surrounded by the beautiful Welsh countryside. The pod was the perfect size for 2 of us and our dog. It had everything we needed to cook, enjoy a cuppa and watch the sun go down in the hot tub. We’d love to return!
We really loved it here! Was hard to leave this beautiful place. The hut was super cosy and clean. It had everything you needed and more. Microwave, toaster, minifridge, plates, glasses, cutlery, tv, towels,... . The first night the water from the shower was a bit hot, but the next day it was fixed already. Also used the hot tub, was lovely and clean, easy to use. We loved how the bed was positioned in the hut. Definitely value for money!!
Wow! This place is outstanding. The views are incredible at all times of the day. Foxes view was comfortable, warm and very relaxing. The hot tub was an add bonus
Lovely accommodation for a couple, couldn’t fault it for the cost. Only downfall would be the tv not working but other than that great value for money.
We arrived for a 2 day stay 4 adults and 3 children. It was not confined at all, we felt there was just enough room for this many people. We were left with a welcome box which was lovely. The tent is well stocked with everything you would need! The children. LOVED the stargazing hammock and hot tub but also the animals grazing around and the little stream behind us. A 10 min drive into Rhayader and a lovely pub lunch. We also used the pump track which was another great hit for the children. The toilets were warm and clean, although not enough toilet roll provided. A great family stay, would de...more
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, it was very comfortable and relaxing. Exactly what we were after. Found the hobbit huts very comfortable and the views from the jacuzzi fantastic. Would come back again. Thank you.
We celebrated my sister’s 40th birthday by visiting wales and staying at Rabbits view. Accommodation was beautiful, a perfect location and unique. The underground house was very comfortable, had everything you needed and the views were stunning. Although we had an amazing time some of the furnishing need replacing, the washing up bowl and kitchen bin were both split & missing some plastic. The towels that were supplied were stained which appeared to be bleach stains. Some of the kitchen utensils were very used and the frying pan - everything stuck to it. But this would not stop me fr...more
Had a lovely few days away for the wife’s birthday , our son and daughter in law recommended this one as they have stayed here before. Well laid out site and everything was perfect . Will definitely return as it was great value and staff were lovely. Many thanks to you all .
Myself and my husband stayed for 4 nights with our dog to celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary. The property is impressive with lots of space and land, our dog really enjoyed the little woodlands behind the cabin. While the location is lovely and picturesque, surrounded by greenery and farm animals, it is a bit of a drive from the nearest town (around 20-25 minutes). We didn't mind this though as the drive was lovely and scenic with no traffic (apart from sheep in the road!). We had an issue with the hot tub on the first night as it hadn't been cleaned. Within an hour of texting the...more
The perfect place to escape to enjoy the peace and quiet, set in the rolling green hillside. Everything you need for a self chartering get away! Would highly recommend.
We had a lovely 4 day break. The Lodge was lovely and clean. The twin room was a little small for an adult but otherwise ok. The site was clean and plenty for the kids to do. Only issue we had was the cafe, food wasnt great. They had run out of alot of ingredients but didn't tell us. We had completely different xishes to what we ordered. Staff were polite, but didn't seem to know what they were doing. Could have just been an off day.
