Emma Taylor
We stayed at this charming cottage tucked away in a quiet spot, just a short 5-minute drive from everything. The place feels cosy and full of character, with a lovely courtyard where we saw some cows in their sheds. The owners seem to live elsewhere but pop by early mornings to tend the farm. The fenced patio with a hot tub was perfect for relaxingand the large garden up front offers stunning hillside views. The gravel path led us to a comfy seating area around a firepit. Loved the peaceful vibe, really enjoyed it!
Emma
The hot tub was fantasticand the views of the farmland were so relaxing. The owner was really friendly too.
Emma
We had a lovely stay here! The place is perfect for unwinding, nestled in a farm with plenty of cows and sheep around. The farm fresh eggs were a real treat, especially the double yolkers! Welshpool isn't far for bigger shopsand there are lots of walking trails and activities, especially if you're with kids. Definitely recommend for a peaceful break.

This place really hits the spot if you're into farm cottages. Loved the authentic farmyard vibe and seeing real cows in the barn was a bonus. After running the Lake Vrynwy half marathon, coming back to a cosy cottage and a hot tub was just what we needed. Perfect chill-out spot!

Beautiful setting, the hosts were really welcoming and helpful.

We absolutely adored the cottage and the area around it! The views were just stunning. Arriving to a lovely sponge cake waiting for us to enjoy with a cuppa tea after our long journey was such a nice touch. The property was perfect for the dogsand we would definitely recommend this place and the incredibly helpful owner to anyone. Plus, the hot tub was such a great bonus for relaxingand we were really lucky to have a sunny week. Thanks a lot, Nikki and John!

What a fantastic house and location! Our daughter absolutely adores the sheep and cows she can see from her window. The hot tub was such a nice bonusand we spent loads of time relaxing in there during the evenings. The hosts were wonderfuland those little welcome touches were just lovely. We particularly enjoyed the local eggs and cake. We'd love to return someday!
Mark
This cottage is beautiful, nestled on a farm yet feels so private. The hot tub is such a lovely touch. Wifi works welland the beds are really comfortable, making for great nights sleep. We're definitely thinking of booking again for next year!
Sarah
What a lovely quaint cottage! We went with 4 adults and 4 dachshunds. It's beautiful and rural, so you don't have to worry about noise, but there's a catch. You really have to drive to get anywhere. The local pub was over an hour's walk away. The roads are unpaved, so we wouldn't want to walk down there with the dogs at night. We were welcomed with a pack of eggs from the farm and a Victoria sponge cake, both of which were delightful. We even had 3 out of 6 double yolkers! Such a nice touch. Plus, there's a lovely log fire too!
