Hidden Hollow in Ceunant Old Hall , Llanidloes, SY18 6PW

About Hidden Hollow

Hidden Hollow is a quirky turf-covered roundhouse tucked away in Mid Wales, just 3 miles west of Llanidloes. This Hobbit-like retreat sits on a 4-acre smallholding with stunning waterside views and wild gardens. It's like something from a fantasy film, but with underfloor heating and Wi-Fi.

The setting is brilliant. Surrounded by rolling Welsh hills and overlooking a river, you're completely immersed in nature. Private gardens and a wildlife pond make this spot perfect for switching off. Nearby, you can explore the Hafren Boardwalk or visit Clywedog Reservoir. After a day out, crack open a bottle and watch the sunset from your hot tub. Better than therapy and probably cheaper too.

This one-bedroom shepherd's hut sleeps two guests in cosy comfort. Inside, you'll find beautiful décor, a Smart TV, Bluetooth speaker and a compact kitchen with a two-ring hob, microwave and fridge. The bathroom facilities are conveniently located downstairs, perfect for those midnight trips after too much wine.

Llanidloes (3 miles) offers independent shops, cafés and pubs for local exploration. Visit Bryntail Lead Mine Buildings (15 minutes), Elan Valley (30 minutes), or take a day trip to Aberystwyth (45 minutes) for seaside fun. The area's packed with walking trails and cycling routes for anyone who loves the outdoors.

Hidden Hollow delivers pure escapism with modern comforts. Perfect for couples seeking romance or solo travellers needing peace. Previous guests rave about the warm welcome (and homemade lemon cake). Don't forget your swimwear for that private hot tub!

Hidden Hollow Reviews

Sarah

We really enjoyed our stay at Hobbit Hollow! The outdoor seating areas were perfect for relaxing and soaking in the natural surroundings. The walk down from the parking was short and lovelyand the riverside seating was a highlight-so peaceful. The fluffy robes were a nice touch, super cosy. The indoor composting loo was surprisingly clean and didn't have any odour, which was great. Overall, a charming spot we'd definitely visit again. Just wish we had stayed longer!

Martin

Decent place, but could do with a thorough clean and refresh.

Emma Clarke

We were after a peaceful escape to unwindand Hidden Hollow really delivered. The setting was so quiet and perfect for recharging. We loved listening to the owls at night and gazing at the endless stars. Definitely coming back in summer! Big thanks to the hosts for being so friendly and helpful.

Charlotte

We had such a lovely stay! The place is tucked away in gorgeous countryside, with the River Severn just outside. The owners were super friendly but gave us plenty of privacy. The eco loo and shower worked perfectlyand the kitchen had everything we needed. Plus, arriving to milk, eggsand a birthday cake was a real treat. The dogs are adorable and well-behaved too!

Emily

Our stay at Hidden Hollow was just lovely. The hosts were super friendly but respectful of our privacy, which we really appreciated. The spot is so remote, perfect for unwinding without any tech distractions - exactly what we needed. The red book was packed with handy tips for exploring around. We enjoyed breakfast outside and cosy evenings by the fire. Every little detail made it specialand we'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet escape. Thanks for a great break, we had an amazing time!

Emma

We had a lovely stay at this quirky little place. Sharon's introduction was really helpful, showing us around and explaining how everything worked. The sounds of the river and nature made it extra special. It's a perfect spot for exploring nearby attractions. The compost toilet was a bit of a learning curve, but it's no big deal. Thanks for the milk, eggsand cake! All in all, a fantastic escape from the hustle, would definitely recommend!
