“WOW...”
This newly built cottage is just about perfect...two spacious bedrooms both with ensuites, an open plan kitchen,(well stocked) dining and sitting room (with 2 very comfortable laura ashley couches, one of which can convert to a bed). The location on the hillside of a beautiful valley is breathtaking, the views are amazing,...there is a veranda on 2 sides of the cottage which allows you to be outside in all weather. It is peaceful and quiet and still only a few minutes drive from the local village which has an award winning takeaway. The beds were so comfortable, the TV in each bedroom a lovely touch. Tom and Olwyn are such gracious hosts, there if you need anything, otherwise leave you alone to rest and relax, we felt very welcome, the local biscuits, t-bags, bread, butter, Elderflower cordial, bottled water already in the fridge, even milk started our week long stay in a high note.. ..come watch the red kites soaring on the thermals over the valley, hear the swifts return to the nearby barn to roost at dusk.....you are truly on holidays, "away from it all". We hope to return, perhaps in Winter, we might be very lucky to stay there in the snow.

The Firs And The Larches
The Firs and The Larges are two luxurious and thoughtfully built holiday lodges resting in Van near Llanidloes, Powys. This wonderful collection offers single-storey, open-plan accommodation boasting truly breath-taking views across the rolling Welsh countryside, off-road parking and covered hot tub, an idyllic setting for couples, families or friends looking to admire the beauty of Wales. The nearby Clywedog Reservoir offers ample walking and cycling routes as well as stunning views across the water and an insight into the area’s history at the nearby Bryntail Lead Mine Buildings. Continue the historic excursion and visit the nearby Llanidloes to tour its museum or to visit the Charter Market which has been held in the town since 1280; or venture further afield to visit the dramatic Powis Castle and to cross the border to explore historic towns like Ludlow and Shrewsbury. Those looking to experience the coast can also take a scenic drive across to Aberystwyth where you can admire its spectacular castle or roam the shores of its beach, if you’re lucky you might even spot the resident dolphins in Cardigan Bay. Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park is also within driving distance hosting an abundance of walking opportunities for every ability as well as a variety of outdoor activities including watersports, underground excursions through mines and even ziplines! Appreciate the wonders of Wales from these spectacular woodland lodges.
