With tasteful, on-site amenities, off-road parking, enclosed garden, and exquisite countryside views, this lovely property welcomes a couple seeking a refreshing, romantic escape to the heart of Mid Wales. Step into your new home-from-home and make the most of the open-plan living space by setting up shop in the well-appointed kitchen, where you and your loved one can prepare a hearty, home-cooked meal to be savoured at the dining table for two, or on the sofa whilst enjoying a film on the stylish, wall-mounted Smart TV.

Stunning scenery. Great little accommodation. Very quiet and peaceful. No need to visit the Red Kite place as youâll see them flying over the property day and night. Stunning to watch. Near by dams a must see. Great if youâre not big into walking as all accessible by car. Property very secure for our little fur baby not to escape, something I was very worried about. Really well thought out. Would like to return in the summer as we did have a lot of rain but thatâs no oneâs fault, just the time of year. Highly recommend.

Extremely peaceful with very little farm activity during our stay. The âShedâ was well equipped, even to the extent that they provided sticks for toasting your marshmallows over the fire pit should you wish to (wood for the fire pit also provided). When we arrived, there was milk in the fridge and some local treats, which was a nice touch. The hot tub was set up ready for use and was especially welcome after a day out around the dams or visiting various nature reserves. All in all an extremely comfortable, clean, peaceful and relaxing place to stay with the added attraction of Red Kites flying overhead. We would highly recommended the Tin Shed.
