  • "Great Pods, fresh and clean inside and out with fantastic views."

    Hot tub excellent and maintained 3 times in our 5 night stay, so always clean. We came for a rest and relax and we got that in abundance, we visited the local town for river walks with our nervous German shepherd which he loved as did we and even went to see the Kite feeding at the local feeding station which is a spectacle to behold. We also had our own Kite entertainment while sat in the hot tub looking out over the valley. Truly calming and truly relaxing even the dog was chilled out for the most. Wi-Fi connection fantastic so you can stay in touch or even do a bit of work if you must. All in all we would recommend this site to anyone looking for a pristine setup with a relaxing atmosphere, fantastic views and a wonderful hot tub.

  • "We stayed here for 7 nights in September and had a wonderfully quiet and relaxing time."

    The cabin was ideal and we felt it included everything we needed for the week, and to my wife's delight the towels that were provided smelt great and were obviously home-laundered. We divided our time between local walks, the pubs and cafes of Rhayader, Elan Valley, sitting in the huge hot tub and sitting in the sun on the terrace watching the birds. We will probably go back next year as there is still a lot to see in the area. The owner Aled was a nice fella and would stop for a chat when servicing the hot tub. The walk into the centre of Rhayader takes about 40 minutes although we found parking was plentiful if you prefer to drive. There are a couple of small general stores, a few pubs and cafes, grocers, takeaways and a very nice butchers with great steak and lamb chops. Diolch Aled, and see you next year.

  • "We had a fantastic stay at Hens hideaway…lovely view and location, cosy and comfortable with nice little extras from the host like local eggs and sweet treats."

    The bed was super comfy and hot tub was spacious and well kept. The cottage is to a high spec and lovely and clean. The only issue we had was the garden was listed as ‘enclosed’ which is a little misleading as it it only literally the wooden patio area which is enclosed - which meant we couldn’t let the dog out unattended to toilet. Other than that there is nothing else we would improve :)

  • "Absolutely stunning lodge!"

    Thank you for accommodating us! Only negative but more so about maintenance! The door to lodge was very stiff and hard to open! Also, hot tub we couldn’t seem to get all jets working!?! Not sure if it was us or hot tub!?! Such a tranquil place to relax!

  • "We truly loved our stay at the Hen's Hideaway, our only regret is that we didn't stay longer!"

    The views are absolutely beautiful and the hot tub is the most perfect way to spend each evening - even if it's raining! This definitely won't be our last visit and we're already planning our next one. The lovely free range eggs and Welsh cakes were a welcome touch and the hosts were incredibly friendly - we couldn't have asked for more!

  • "Lovely property, great hot tub."

    If I had one comment to make I would say that the gardens are not fully enclosed. Would definitely book again.

  • "Beautiful location, quiet and peaceful but only a short drive from a little village with all the amenities you could need."

    Cabin itself is very well finished and the hot tub was our favourite part. We saw red kites every day as they nest in the trees at the bottom of the field, often swooping overhead quite low giving us a really good view. Would return tomorrow!

  • "Hens Hideaway is a fabulously compact gem."

    It has everything you need and the addition of the hot tub on the edge of the decking is wonderful. Sitting on the decking or in the hot tub watching the red kites across the meadow was beautiful and so so peaceful. The hosts are lovely and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.
