  • "Well, I don't know where to start."

    The owner is lovely, the hut is amazing. Pure peace and quiet but not far from the nearest town. Absolutely amazing.

The huts boast a homely interior which has everything you will need during your stay, including a two-ring hob and microwave for conjuring up delicious meals. There is also a TV for catching up on your favourite series after a day of exploring, and a handy shower room for freshening up. Guests will benefit from an enclosed garden which boasts expansive country views, ideal for taking in your surroundings over your morning coffee. Ideally located just a short distance from Rhayader, where there is a delightful selection of pubs, restaurants and tearooms, as well as shops and the CARAD Rhayader Museum and Gallery.
