William July 2025

“I was very impressed upon arrival how clean and tidy the property was and how deceptively spacious.”

Also the silence outside was deafening! It was my first time “glamping”. The welcome pack of milk and Prosecco were much appreciated. The shower was fantastic and the bed was soooooo comfy!

- William, July 2025
Andrew June 2025

“We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the lodge.”

It was peaceful and so very quiet considering that we have 2 very reactive dogs. Very secluded but that is what we wanted. The owners Andy and Sarah were very polite and very helpful. I would definitely recommend the lodges to my family and friends. Absolutely fantastic stay.

Anthony January 2025

“Lovely little spot great for dogs plenty of space for them to run around and a lively river at the bottom of the land.”

Plenty of cooking facilities and a nice local pub and restraint 5 min drive away.

Gary October 2024

“It was a lovely restful site and the pod is well built and well maintained.”

The hot tub being hot on arrival was a lovely touch. We couldn't find the walk down to the river so got in the car. Would be worried about driving down the track in bad wet or icy weather and you need the right car for it to be comfortable -perhaps that should be in the details. The fact that it had a sofa and not two chairs would be good to say in the details as that nearly put us off and was a nice suprise. Generally would recommend.

- Gary, October 2024

Thank you for your feedback and for making us aware of your concerns regarding the track. We have got provisions in place for icy weather and grit the track when needed in winter. We have also left further details in the property regarding access to the river. Property Owner
Emma October 2024

“We absolutely loved staying at this cabin!”

It was huge and way bigger in real life than it looks like on photos. It was super clean and a perfect, relaxing and idyllic break away from the hustle and bustle of busy life. Can’t recommend staying here enough!

- Emma, October 2024
Darren September 2024

“Stag Lodge was extremely clean well presented is a lovely quite peaceful setting with stunning views.”

The owner were so polite and helpful. The welcome package has everything you need for a fantastic stay with menus for food and places to visit. We took the opportunity to go visit some of them and will definitely be returning the stag lodge soon. Xx

Les August 2024

“Stag lodge was a wonderful place to stay, out the way of all the madness that around us.”

Sarah was very helpful, and was there if you needed help. I would recommend to anyone if you needed time and space to regenerate, it's the place to be.

- Les, August 2024
Catherine August 2024

“Stag Lodge is wonderful!”

So clean and had everything we needed. The prosecco,milk,chocolate & dog treats were a lovely,thoughtful touch. Dog mat and bowls are provided. We took a crate for our puppy and our older dog had her bed and there was still plenty of space in the lodge. Hot tub was lit and heated prior to our arrival. My partner loved the walled fire area,he was in his element and we had a BBQ everyday. Metal chairs provided on the decking area outside,we took our own reclining loungers to use on the grassed area for comfort. Owners were easily contactable and very quick to respond to any queries or issues. Sarah sent very clear instructions on how to reach the property. Thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet of the beautiful stag lodge and we hope to return.

“We absolutely loved staying at the Stag Lodge!”

It was so clean and had everything we needed! The Prosecco and milk was lovely and it had everything we needed! It was nice to get there and the hot tub was ready for us! It was definitely what we needed! We will definitely be booking again!

Avril March 2024

“Had a 3night gorgeous stay over the Easter weekend.”

Looks exactly as listed. Pleasantly surprised with the cleanliness considering it is dog friendly! All essentials for kitchen for basic cooking provided. Dog mat/bed and bowel provided. One thing that may be handy is a mop or wipes so we could help keep floors tidy after the doggo’s. Hot tub was lit and heated prior to arrival and owners easily contactable when needed! Will definitely stay again if we’re near the area!

Ancuta December 2023

“We decided to spend Christmas away from home this year and booked 1 week away at the Stag Lodge.”

We have found a home away from home. Sarah and Andy were super welcoming with both of us and also our fur baby Daisy. Lodge is well equipped and has everything you need inside to feel like home. We got to experience strom Pia on our holiday but the lodge has keept us warm throughout the day and night, enjoyed Christmas movies on Netflix when raining and the wood fired hot tub during the evenings. Absolutely loved the stone build fire area where we made a BBQ everyday. The nature surrounding the lodge is breathtaking and just a lovely sight for the eye when sipping your morning coffee. Inside the lodge you can find loads of ideas to spend your day if you feel like exploring. So looking foward to book Stag lodge in the future. Thank you Sarah and Andy for a lovely Christmas week ❤️

Luan September 2023

“Just perfect, cannot fault the lodge, the surroundings or the owners.”

12 out of 10 across the board. Beautiful setting, all just perfect - hot tub amazing! Just so peaceful and what we needed. Only suggestion I would give is the outdoor chairs. They are metal and not relaxing chairs as such, we brought our own fabric type garden chairs that recline etc. the ones at lodge are ok for 30 mins for a cuppa but to sit outside for a long time wether be reading or round fire pit they are not comfy. Cannot wait to re book and come again which we hope will be October November. Would highly reccomended

- Luan, September 2023
Julie September 2023

Lee August 2023

“We had such a relaxing and peaceful weekend break.”

The lodge is absolutely stunning and couldn’t fault it one bit! Everything was perfect and Sarah was so welcoming and helpful. Would highly recommend this lodge to anyone interested in staying here. The Prosecco and milk in the fridge was a lovely touch as well and very thoughtful. Thank you so much Sarah and Andy x

Susan June 2023

“Lovely amazing stay beautiful location!”

Stunning lodge so peaceful only thing I would say is the bed is quite hard and the mattress slopes a wee bit but apart from that I couldn’t fault it! Perfect! Loved how they left treats, beds, bowls and a towel for the dogs such a lovely touch!!

Sarah December 2022

“Stag Lodge is an oasis of peace and tranquillity.”

The lodge is perfectly sized, beautifully clean and very cosy. We loved the log fuelled hot tub under the stars. This was a wonderful way to end a day out. The hosts were helpful, thoughtful and not intrusive. Communication was exceptional. The tea, coffee and sugar were well stocked. There was milk and Prosecco in the fridge for our arrival and the hot tub was on. We would highly recommend a stay at Stag Lodge. We stayed 4 nights in December and didn’t want to leave.

- Sarah, December 2022
Tom November 2022

“Absolutely amazing stay at the lodge, would have loved to of stayed longer.”

The only complaint we had and this is a very small complaint, is that it was quite difficult to get the hot tub warm. However with the help of Andy it was piping hot all night. We will be back.

- Tom, November 2022
Megan November 2022

Paul September 2022

“I just can not give one fault.”

I'd love to give loads so it doesn't get booked more often so it's always free and I can go whenever I just need to unwind. What a weekend. Welshpool is close by and the raven inn food was great too. But other than that small venture out I had all I could wish for within those walls.Really was all we could have asked for and so much more. Thank you

- Paul, September 2022
Holly September 2022

“Myself and a friend shared the cottage for the week and it was a great opportunity to explore around north wales!”

The cottage was relaxing and had great facilities such as a private garden for the dog

- Holly, September 2022
Amanda September 2022

“I wanted a relaxing tranquil break with my husband that’s what I got, slight problem finding it but oh my goodness the setting is superb, stag lodge is beautiful had everything we needed, I would add a food waste bin, we did have a problem with flies but that is nothing to do with the owners we are surrounded by fields with cows and sheep!”

We met the owners once both lovely people. Some people said we needed a microwave I don’t think so the cute little tower cooker unit does everything I loved the rotisserie. I will definitely be back and would definitely recommend it. Absolutely stunning

- Amanda, September 2022

Alex August 2022

“Wow. What an amazing little place to stay.”

A big thank you to Sarah for being so accommodating. The little touches upon our arrival made us feel very welcome, this included the Prosecco that was left out for us and pre-warming up the hot tub to be nice and ready for us. Me and my partner had such a nice time. The views were breathtaking at night, hearing the wildlife in the morning whilst enjoying breakfast on the porch was so refreshing. Couldn’t thank Sarah enough and will definitely be coming back in the future

“The property was so lovely and very well put together.”

Everything about this place was amazing - the property owners heated the hot tub before we arrived and made sure we had everything we needed. Lovely little welcome gifts and an extremely helpful book with places to visit and eat. Even listed doctors etc for in case of emergency. Was so impressed! The property was extremely clean. It was faultless - we had such a wonderful time. Planning to come back as soon as possible!

About the location

LLANFAIR CAEREINION

Welshpool 8 miles.

The town of Llanfair Caereinion is built upon the site of an old Roman fort, in the valley of the River Banwy. It is a thriving town built around The Church of St Mary, with a Post Office, two supermarkets, and a selection of three different pubs. The annual Llanfair Caereinion Carnival is very popular with locals, and proceeds through the town with a full parade of floats and dancing troupes, providing a Rio carnival atmosphere. There is a river walk along the banks of the Banwy leading to an Arboretum, containing over 25 different species of British trees, an ideal place to explore before stepping back in time and jumping on the start of the narrow gauge heritage steam railway that runs 8.5 miles west to Welshpool. Welshpool nestles into the upper reaches of the picturesque Severn Valley near the border between Wales and England. This bustling market town is surrounded by rolling hills and glorious unspoilt countryside. There's a unique blend of shops offering arts & crafts, fashion & leisure, fresh produce, and quality pubs and restaurants, as well as the town centre’s restored cock fighting pit and interesting Heritage Trail. Visit the famous 13th Century Powis Castle, and the renowned Dingle Gardens. Enjoy a cruise in the summer sun along the Montgomery Canal or glorious walks and bike rides along National walking trails and the Offa’s Dyke Pathway.
