Host very friendly and helpful.

"Very clean with everything we needed."
Upstairs bedroom and en suite very spacious. Owners Joan and Richard very friendly and helpful. From the description it wasn’t clear that the pub garden came up to our front door with seating for drinkers right outside so it wasn’t very private.

"This was a lovely cottage in the heart of the village run by Joan and Richard."
The area is picturesque and quiet with easy access to tourist attractions and numerous supermarkets. Joan was an exceptional host and landlady of the Red Lion Inn which was next to the cottage. The local residents were all welcoming and friendly. The cottage was within easy access to Powis Castle and the Llanfair Steam Railway both of which we enjoyed.

"Absolutely fabulous cottage with everything you would want, and more, for a short break."
Clean, well equipped, and homely. Super public house adjacent with friendly hosts. No noise from pub to affect tranquillity. Super location for visits to local attractions within one-hour drive.

"Had a lovely week in this cosy cottage."
The upstairs bedroom is spacious with a large comfortable bed. Downstairs bedroom is smaller but bed just as comfortable. Pub next door is friendly and serves great food. The owner is on hand and happy to help. Hope to stay again soon.

"We had a great holiday."
Very comfortable accommodation. The owner was very helpful and could not do enough to ensure that we enjoyed our stay
-
"First of all the booking process was straightforward and the description accurate."
In fact if anything the pictures did not do justice to the accommodation. The cottage is attached (it's a wing) to the village pub. It was NOT noisy and the pub very friendly. Thank you Rachel and Stu. Joan runs the accommodation and couldn't be more helpful and friendly. The cottage can accommodate up to 4 but we were just 2 (myself and my wife) which meant the space was both generous and perfect. The upstair bedroom was fabulous. If you're looking for a party and nightlife this, possibly, isn't for you (albeit you have a friendly pub). We like hiking, scenery, nature, history, cutlure, a pub and nightlife. 6 out of 7 is better than pretty good. The test is always would you look forward to going back? The answer's yes.

"This is a lovely cottage of excellent standards, with everything you would need."
A good layout for either a family or 2 couples with facilities upstairs and down. Set in a good location for exploring the area Powis Castle (NT) is only a 10 - 15 minute drive and worth a visit just to explore the beautiful gardens. Joan and Richard were the perfect hosts nothing was too much for them, they offered advice on local attractions and made you feel very welcome. Joan's home cooking in the Pub next door is both tasty and plentiful not to be missed. The Pub was an ideal place to relax after a day exploring, Stu the Landlord and the local villages made you feel at home, they would include you in conversation and ask how your day was. The setting was very peaceful and although next to the Pub you would not know it whilst in and around the cottage. This was our first visit to this cottage but will not be the last we will definitely return in the near future.

"An absolutely fabulous cottage - comfortable and very well presented and being attached to a pub - even better!"
The owners,Joan, couldn’t have been more helpful in ensuring our stay was enjoyable and her evening meals were delicious - highly recommend the sausages and mash. Also thanks to Stuart who ran the bar who was a friendly and outgoing mine host. All in all a lovely week with excellent weather that allowed us to explore the locality by walking and cycling.

"This is a great cottage well equipped and hosts very friendly as well as locals."
We really enjoyed our stay in Wales a welcome change
-
"The cottage itself was excellent,the downstairs bedroom was small but the one upstairs was huge and light with a really comfy king size bed."
Joan & richard were very welcoming ,friendly and helpful and the locals in the pub were really friendly and invited us to join them ,really nice.
-
"The cottage provided us with all our needs."
It was clean, homely and extremely comfortable. The hosts Joan and Richard could not do enough for you and went out if their way to make you feel welcome and to be part of the community. The locals from day one were welcoming and again made you welcomed into their community. I would definitely look to stay at the cottage again. The cottage and the hosts I would introduce to friends should I ever be asked to recommend a place to stay. Finally Joan provided meal on some of the evenings which were plentiful and good home cooking. Again I would recommend to anyone staying in the cottage to try Joan’s food they will not be disappointed.

"Everything was just brilliant, the host Joan was first class , nothing was too much trouble."
Really friendly people that made you welcome as part of their community. Just great.!!!

"Friendly landlady and local people made us most welcome."
-
"The cottage was really nice with plenty of space, everything you needed to enjoy a self catering holiday."
We did not cook much in the cottage as The Red Lion Pub next door was brilliant, the food Joan made for us was very good and lots of it at a very reasonable price as were the drinks. Joan and Richard could not have been better hosts, they both work very hard to make everyone welcome. They made you feel like a friend in their home rather than a guest. The bed was so comfortable and the shower room was huge and it was all nicely decorated. The villagers all made us very welcome too and we had a good laugh each night. We were given advice on where to visit and how to get there by either Joan, Richard, Dave, Darren or any of the other villagers. The little shop opposite has a good variety of goods and the owner Michael is also very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our week and hope to visit again in the future as it is a great base to visit the many places near by.

"Joan, the owner of the cottage and the Red Lion was very friendly, helpful and made our stay very enjoyable."
Nothing was too much trouble. The cottage was very comfortable, warm, clean and everything that we needed was provided. The upstairs bedroom was very large with a comfortable king sized bed and large en-suite. Joan and the villagers made us feel very welcome when we went in the pub and the meals were very good, especially the apple pie! The local shop is also well worth a visit and the owner, Michael, is also very friendly. We were visiting the Great Little Trains of Wales and Yew Tree Cottage was the perfect base, just an hour and a half from most of the stations through the stunning Snowdonia National Park. We would certainly book Yew Tree Cottage if we were visiting the area in the future. Thank you Joan.

"Yew Tree cottage is clean, warm, comfortable and spacious, the perfect base for exploring mid and north Wales."
We received a very warm welcome from Joan the owner of the cottage and landlady of the Red Lion next door but one. The Red Lion is a great place to have an evening meal (the food is excellent) and a drink, everyone was extremely friendly and we felt very much at home. We intend to visit again later on in the year.
-

"We had a lovely week at Yew Tree Cottage!"
The cottage itself is extremely comfortable, very well furnished and equipped, in a beautiful location, and the owners (Joan and Richard, who run the excellent pub next door) are outstandingly friendly and helpful. We definitely hope to be back. Strongly recommended!
-
"Great place to stay as it had everything."
A bathroom each was a bonus. Joan looked after us so well and fed us every night after our travels. I would have liked the public transport to be more frequent as it is nice to dump the car but the station in Welshpool is only a short drive away and parking is free there.
-
"Owners nice people."
