The hosts were really lovely, very welcoming and helpful. A very nice couple. The views were amazing, wildlife around was great - chickens roam around which was nice to see, and even fed them at one point. Overall, we will definitely go back! Thank you for the stay!

Our last minute booking placed us just outside Llanidloes which turned out to be a wonderful little place with lots of independent shops and everything we needed for a great holiday break.
