Red Kite, Llanrhaeadr-Ym-Mochnant

Great little get away. Heather and Graeme were great hosts from start to finish. Greeted with a freshly baked loaf of bread. Hot tub was heated and ready to enjoy on arrival. Everything in the shepherds hut was immaculate, allthe facilities you need. Lucky enough to see shooting stars and satellite train look it up whilst relaxing in the Hot tub. Could keep going on. But go check it out for yourself. Awesome.

A cosy place to stay. The decking area is excellent to relax on, with the wood fired hot tub. Bit of a pain having to wait a couple of hours to heat up, nice touch by the owner's to ask what time we were arriving so that it could be nearly ready when we got there. The home made bread was a nice thought too.

Just got back from our stay and Heather went above and beyond for us! After being there just over a day and half I became unwell and Heather did everything she could to help me and checked on me the whole time! Even though I was poorly for most of the week, everything about our little hut was relaxing and it was home from home. There was parking for us, everything was always clean and the description of everything advertised was spot on. The freshly baked bread was so nice. We went on a trip to the waterfalls and had a nice day out there. Fresh towels were given to us, nothing was too much trouble. Couldn't ask for a better hostess! Thank you so much!! xx

We had a wonderful twonight stay! The accommodation had everything we needed and felt like a home away from home. Our hostess was incredibly welcoming and kind, and the freshly baked homemade bread waiting for us on arrival was such a lovely touch. We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely love to return!

A beautiful little hut, in a beautiful setting. A little welcome card and fresh bread and goodies, made the stay even more perfect. Highly recommended. Thank you for a lovely weekend

Excellent 2 night stay. So relaxing and peaceful.

What a beautiful place. It was so peaceful and tranquil. Upon arrival we were welcomed with fresh home made bread, butter & jam. Heather & Graeme are so accommodating, nothing was too much. They came & helped with the hot tub & on our last day, we were out all day & after asking they very kindly had our hot tub ready for us. The perfect end to a busy sightseeing day. Such a stunning place, we will definitely be going back

Would 100 recommend staying here. Nothing but the sound of sheep and the stream below and we were completely left alone for our whole stay. The cabin was perfect for the 2 of us and a loaf of fresh bread on arrival was a lovely addition.

Fantastic break, couldn't ask for more. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming we could have asked for more. They made some great recommendations too. Perfect escape for the week.

We had such a lovely stay in Red Kite at Wild Valley Huts. Heather & Graeme were really helpful & welcoming. The shepards hut is comfortable and clean. Such a beautiful area it is in & lots to do and explore! We especially enjoyed visiting the Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall! Our little dog enjoyed it too. Thank you so much

Had an amazing stay. The hut was perfect and Heather and Graeme were 1010 hosts.

Such a cozy hidden gem in the mountains, owners were lovely and helped with whatever we needed and stocked up on anything we asked. Hot tub was a cherry on top and the bed was the comfiest bed we have slept in. The hut definitely excelled our expectations and the stream outside was so peaceful. No issues with the facilities and the utensils and equipment were all of good quality and everything was spotless when we arrived. Not far from local pubs which served great food which the owners recommended so thank you. We would definitely stay in this hut again we had a wonderful experience, thanks you Graham and Heather for a lovely stay and with all your help. Brilliant !

Very relaxing experience, the hosts are so welcoming and friendly. The hut is beautiful, finished to a high standard with everything you need. The location is idyllic, the hot tub luxurious experience gazing at the stars in the night sky. The warm homemade bread an extra thoughtful touch. Hoping to book again later in the year

Absolutely lovely. Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay. The hot tub was perfect, we loved the hut and the guide book helped navigate us on a great walk. The loaf of bread when we arrived was so lovely too. Would definitely recommend!

A real gem of a property. Every detail has been carefully thought through in such a small space. The heating is easy to control but the wood burner gave an extra boost if needed. I was not cold despite the frost and wind outside. Kitchen is very well equipped with good quality cooking utensils and sharp knives which is an unusual find for me!. The bed and pillows are very comfortable providing a good nights sleep. The hot spa tub was the cherry on top, making my trip one of the most relaxing Ive had in a long time. Heather and Graeme have put together a comprehensive guide book for the hut and the local area which was perfect for someone like me travelling on their own. Truly wonderful hosts. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

5 stars across the board! Couldnt fault anything. The hot tub was incredible and the enjoying the homemade bread in the mornings before taking our dog on a walk was the perfect start to the morning. The owners couldnt be anymore helpful and we are looking at coming back again in 2025!

The property was very cosy, homely and clean. The facilities were great the bed was really comfy, decent kitchenette and the hot tub was lovely. The log fire was a nice touch as well. Heather and Graeme were fantastic hosts, they made us feel very welcome and went out of their way to go the extra mile for us and made our stay extra special. We would definitely visit again.

If youre looking for a superb couples retreat with fantastic hosts , lots of quality little touches, walks on your doorstep literally and a super hot tub to watch the stars set on the hills youve found it. Cant speak highly enough of the hosts. They turned a problem being snowed in ! into a delight with their genuinely warm, friendly and helpful response. Try the freshly baked bread and warm croissants too, youll be glad you did.

Had a lovely few nights away, the host was very accommodating and we would have liked to stay longer.

We have had a wonderful stay in the Red Kite hut! It was lovely and clean, cosy, and the highlight was definitely the hot tub. We enjoyed the beautiful views from the hut each morning, we will definitely be returning.

Me and my rescue collie Betty had an enjoyable stay at this property. Lovely and clean and cosy particularly the cute little wood burning stove which made it very homely. Saw lots of red kites, pheasants and other birds and the first tree creeper I've seen in 10 years. Great for looking at the stars due to low light pollution levels. Thanks for a lovely 5 days. Jo and Betty

We had a relaxing week so cosy and loved the hottub,we are booking again very soon

Beautiful, comfortable and everything we needed!

Our stay here was amazing. Heather and Graeme were exceptional hosts, nothing was too much for them. They recommended restaurants and local attractions when we asked, they helped solve our pizza crisis when we stupidly bought oven pizzas before checking if we had an oven and they even brought us freshly baked croissants on our last morning. This has been one of the nicest stays weve ever had through Sykes and weve been using the company for over 8 years. We dont tend to holiday in the same place twice, however this may end up being an exception!

Very clean, very comfortable and a great location for people like us who enjoy the outdoors and walking

Lovely little hideaway stay. Perfect for a short break away. We did have a problem with the hot tub not working properly due to a power cut but the owners were more than helpful getting it sorted out and most apologetic. Much appreciated

Amazing cabin, gorgeous area would definitely stay again. Owners were lovely, had an issue with the hot tub and they sorted it very quickly.

Had a lovely stay at red kite, fantastic addition of the lazy spa made it an even more relaxing stay. Enclosed decking area was perfect to leave the door to the hut open and my dog to relax and sniff the fresh air. The field at the start of the drive was perfect for my dogs morning walk before we went on adventures to surrounding areas. Really friendly owners that were happy to help whenever needed. 5 stars!

Wow, what can I say a gorgeous lovely little slice of heaven hidden away in the valley! ! Quite remote and very wild, which is exactly what we wanted. The hut was so cosy inside with lovely comfy furnishings, we particularly loved the throws and big cushions on the bed now the bed .. was the most comfiest bed weve EVER slept in! Weve stayed in quite a few accommodations and nowhere else has ever had a bed that comfy! We loved that Red Kite is dog friendly as this meant our Springer Spaniel Biscuit could come along too. Ive never seen him as calm and settled so well in the hut. We would have loved to have lit the log burning stove but it was too warm back end of May but would love to do that on a winter trip! The kitchen area was neat and compact, had everything needed to prepare and cook a meal which was perfect.The hut also has a lovely secure gated decking area which provides great peace of mind when having a dog, it meant he could potter about freely and poke his head through the fence beams to spy on the birds!! We thoroughly enjoyed sitting out on and listening to the tranquility of the nearby stream trickling away and the beautiful bird song. The views of the mountains and the mist over the tops was absolutely incredible. The lazy spa was a wonderful surprise as this wasnt available when we made the booking but Heather and Graeme reached out to us a few days before arrival to tell us it was there and ready to use which was brilliant! It was a great way to unwind after a day of exploring! We visited Chirk trout farm and smokery which was absolutely amazing would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to support local businesses. We had smoked trout fillets and also trout sausages which were delicious. We enjoyed a lovely visit to Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall too which is only a short drive away and that is MUST if you love nature, it is breathtaking and last but not least Lake Vyrnwy and Dam. Amazing architecture and stunning wildlife and views. We absolutely loved our stay and felt so relaxed we were sad to leave! We will definitely be heading back soon!
