  • "Wow! A beautiful location and a beautiful place to stay."

    Amenities were top notch! Had everything we needed for an amazing stay. Spotlessly clean, comfy bed the list is endless! Took our furbaby along and he had more than enough space on the decking and surrounding little area where he was safe enough to have a roam supervised. Hot tub simply lush! Definetly allowed us to reset for sure! Hosts very accommodating and we even took home some fresh eggs they supplied. Will be back, highly recommended!

  • "This is an extremely well presented accommodation in the most beautiful of settings."

    The attention to detail is outstanding and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hot tub was the perfect way to relax after walking the reservoirs, and sitting on the porch watching the soaring kites was so peaceful. Thank you for a wonderful and restful stay.

  • "The rural setting is outstanding, and we spent each evening on the patio admiring the spectacular views."

    With sheep roaming the fields below, it's easy to forget the stresses of modern-day life. Our pod was impeccably equipped and spotless. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised by the fresh farm eggs and biscuits that had been provided! Alex was very attentive every morning, ensuring that our private hot tub was kept clean and heated throughout the day. It was always ready whenever we wanted to use it, which we did after our walks and again to watch the sunset, glass of wine in hand! The Wi-Fi was excellent, and I was able to conduct a few business meetings online without any issues. Additionally, Lucy was extremely well-organized and responsive, always eager to help with any questions or concerns. We highly recommend Rooster's Rest—it's simply impossible to go wrong. Alex and Lucy are exceptional hosts.

  • "We had the most peaceful stay at Roosters Rest!"

    The view from the balcony is beautiful by day with grazing sheep on the rolling hills and by night with the thousands of stars. The hot tub was perfect and we loved that you could get into it straight from the balcony so that doggo was safe on the balcony and could still be near us. The hut itself is very well thought out in terms of space and practicality and the interiors were modern and cosy. The location is perfect, only 20 minutes from Eden Valley where we walked to look at the dams on both days we were there. We didn’t feel the need to go out to eat as cooking at the pod and sitting on the balcony was so perfect. So pleased we found this little gem and can’t wait to be back. Thank you Aled and Lucy for being so helpful and friendly.

    A gorgeous little lodge overlooking Welsh hills, complete with hot tub to relax and watch the stunning view with the hills, sheep and red kites. Super comfortable bed, a powerful shower and a great little living area, it has everything you need for a cosy little stay away from home. Highly recommend!
