"Great place!"
Looks exactly as shown. Brilliant to have the extras added from host, really exceptional. Very clean and tidy. Fantastic view, beautiful place to stay. Well worth having a spa treatment too as we really liked ours. Would return again.

"Was the perfect little getaway, loved every aspect of our stay."

"A two night stay to take our autistic son somewhere quiet which it was, also something different, he loved the jacuzzi and seeing the sheep in the fields, absolute peace and quality Great communication with the owners."
Shops not too far away and a great butchers. Excellent facilities for what we needed
-
"A gorgeous little 'Hobbit Hole Hideaway' nestled within fields."
Fabulous sheep watching over us during our stay. Luxurious hot tub and awesome BBQ. Would be helpful if there was an outdoor drying maiden of some sort to hang swimwear and towels post hot-tub.
-
"It is a lovely property in a lovely quiet and peaceful location, great place to get away from it all and just relax."
It is not a huge property, but they have made the best of the space available.

"We had an amazing little getaway in the "hobbit hut" / "teletubbie house" for my birthday (Derwen) The pictures of this property do not do it justice!"
Finished to a very modern and high standard, with a functional kitchen that has the basic equipment required. Upon our arrival we were welcomed with a bottle of wine, welsh cakes, milk, eggs and steaming hot tub. The hot tub was definitely the highlight of our trip after alot of walking and sightseeing. Book in advance for a massage with Leah at the spa. A very relaxing experience Yes, the bench sofa isn't the most comfortable but I think it encourages you to go out and enjoy the welsh countryside. The hot water in the shower doesnt last as long as we are use to so have shorter showers. A very peaceful and quiet location. You can see for miles and on a clear night (we didn't get one) maybe see the stars. We will definitely be returning but instead will book the neighbouring hut (Onnen) which is more suited for couples. In responce to a previous review: no birds, no mice, a working fridge and no smoke or smell after cooking.

"It was the most amazing and tranquil place we have ever stayed at."
Such peace and quiet. The pod has everything anyone can ask for. It's magical and the views are just breathtaking. The little welcome presents of fresh eggs, Welsh cakes and wine were a lovely surprise. The hot tub and the optional Spa treatments by Leah are a very nice bonus :-) Absolutely loved the place! Thanks to the lovely and welcoming hosts. I am hoping to come back again! :-)

"Fantastic , peaceful relaxing accommodation."
Immaculate loved all the extras that were left for us , it was great as we arrived late so could have a nice cuppa and a lovely Welsh cake . The hot tub was gorgeous to end the busy day relaxing in the tub. Thank you
-
"Faulty fridge ,froze all our food we brought and the birthday cake for my partner ."
Broken bbq, totally unusable which ruined all our birthday plans and had to go eat out and pay more money ,no way you could cook a decent meal in there as the smoke ans smell in such a confined space,and if you left door open birds flew in also some fridge mice Very uncomfortable seating area inside like a bench, no way you can sit and relax .,suitable for a nights stay but not the 4 night we booked as we had to go lay on the beds Paid a lot of money for facilities that were advertised but didn't work, would not compensate for the bbq which was basically the reason we booked

"Wow, Simply stunning."
Beautiful location, fabulously quirky accommodation with some very nicely thoughtout details. Most welcoming and clean presentation. Lyn and I loved it!!!
-
"It's a lovely relaxing spot with amazing views, we loved our time there, the only thing I dont agree with is the price for what your getting, it's way too expensive for what you actually get."
-
"Fabulous place."
Exactly as described and really done to a high quality spec. The hot tub was hot on arrival and exactly what we needed when we arrived. The coordinates that were shared on another review we used to locate the cottage and they were spot on. Absolutely don’t use the postcode, instructions or coordinates only! Our only slight feedback is the seating area which a few people have mentioned before. Great size and perfect for coffee but would suggest not so much for lounging. We went in February so evenings were about being indoors and cosy so noticed the seating then. Maybe a footstool (swapping the gorgeous coffee table) that could be pulled up against the sofa might help? Saying that I’m sure in the summer with doors open, you’d be far less concerned and outside anyway. Brilliant stay and our children now want to live in “the fairy house”. Thank you.

"We came here as a group of two couples and had an amazing weekend!"
The accommodation was spotless, it was modern and absolutely beautiful. Every last detail had been thought about from tea and coffee and milk already being provided to ice cubes made up for us in the freezer! The surrounding area was breathtaking. Overall a fantastic stay and I have already recommended this to friends and family we will definitely return fantastic value for money.

"We had a wonderful stay at Tan Y Wawr - Leah and her family were very welcoming, the Welsh cakes and wine were a lovely surprise!"
The views from the hut were outstanding, we spent a day in Shrewsbury which is a 40 min drive from the property, on the second day we explored Powys Castle and on the last day we had a wonderful massage at the spa. We spent every night enjoying the hot tub! We would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful holiday!
-
"Such a beautiful and peaceful location."
Attention to detail was lovely. The hot tub was fab! Would definitely recommend
-
"It was a beautiful, serene place and great concept."
We didn’t want to leave, hosts were very accommodating. Hoping to make it an annual trip.
-
"It was such a lovely place to stay, so cozy and the views were amazing!"
Great price for 4 people for 4 nights and has all the essentials you would need for a self catering holiday! The wine and Welsh cakes were amazing too! Thank you for letting us stay!
-
"Wonderful stay at an amazing, unique property!"
Fantastic views .Can't wait to return maybe in summer when we can sit out and admire the view!!
-
"This was a beautiful cottage that looked like a Hobbit Hole."
It was such a magical stay, the kids absolutely loved it. The place is perfect for nature lovers. One morning we even woke up to a rabbit just outside our little window. And, just to add that bit of extra special, there’s a hot tub. Nothing like relaxing in bubbly warm water with those stunning views. I would 10/10 recommend this. I’ve already told all my friends and am planning when we can next come back.
-
"Beautifully kept."
Kitchen utensils made it very easy to find everything we needed. The sofa isn’t the most comfortable but I understand the use restrictions. Loved finding the board games. USB charging points would be useful. The hot tub was not heated on our arrival so we could not use it on the first day which was very disappointing as this was a strong reason for our choice here.
-
"Absolutely amazing honeymoon."
The place looked beautiful, hot tub was a great edition. Bed was super comfy and had everything needed. Loved the little extras like wine,milk and Welsh cakes. Owners are so lovely, would definitely recommend.
-
"Lovely accommodation."
Done out to a very high standard, lovely workmanship within the accommodation. Everything they’re needed for a short stay. Hot tub was clean and hot every day which was a plus. Lovely and peaceful area and only 40 mins from Shrewsbury and powys castle which was beautiful. The only fault really was we wanted to book a hot stone massage but we’re told that we couldn’t have one as there was not availability. When in the welcome pack it stated to contact and it would be accommodated. Apart from that lovely stay highly recommend
Thank you for your review we appreciate your feedback. Sounds like you’ve had a lovely time during your stay. We apologise for any disappointment caused due to lack of availability with treatments. It was unfortunate that we weren’t able to accommodate the dates you were after. We’ve taken your feedback on board and will bear in mind for future bookings. Thank you ☺️ Property Owner

"Absolutely beautiful!"
Hosts were so accommodating and always on hand to make sure our stay was exceptional. Spa facilities were excellent and really enhanced our stay as did the hot tub and the most amazing views. I would highly recommend and would not hesitate to return!

"Wonderful hosts, beautiful, peaceful setting and great experience."
We arrived a day late due to being unwell and were asked if we wanted to extend our stay at no additional cost. Wine, juice, milk and Welsh cakes on arrival. Comfortable beds and everything we needed at the accommodation to enjoy our stay. Treatments at the spa reasonably priced and great addition to our break. We would definitely recommend and would love to stay again

"What an amazing place to stay, very peaceful and quiet had an amazing weekend ..."
What an amazing place to stay, very peaceful and quiet had an amazing weekend there and enjoyed the onsite spa will definitely return, only down fall is the seating is a bit uncomfortable
-
"Went over and beyond for our stay the views were amazing and hot tub made the holiday despite the rain"
-
"Excellent property, exceptionally private, amazing views."
Would recommend again. Would recommend including the coordinates for the site as post code is a little inaccurate and website map not the easiest to read - 52°39'29.3"N 3°23'59.7"W
-
"It was a wounder place, the only problem was there was no where to sit and relax, even outside chairs very hard"
-
"Brilliant place, so quirky and totally private and secluded which we loved!"
Gorgeous spa treatment too. Unfortunately we had to leave a night earlier than what we had booked as both got bit (a lot!) either in the house at night, we had to have the windows open or while in the hot tub. Would be a good idea to provide fans in the hot weather and some sort of insect or fly repellent as there were a lot.
-
"Firstly, this property is absolutely beautiful and a lot of thought has been put in to make it comfortable."
We had a fantastic stay, the location is great for exploring and I would highly recommend to future bookers. There were only a couple of small recommendations I would make: some of the seating wasn’t the most comfortable to sit on, especially outside so may some cushions for these. The sliding doors caused a small issue on the first day when one got stuck on the runner and they can’t be opened properly from the inside as there’s no decent handle. The only downside of the holiday was the fact that I contacted the spa operator the week before to book a full body massage for me and my partner. They didn’t reply to any of my messages, despite having read them, and then when they finally responded (the day we arrived) they booked us for the wrong treatment which they only realised a few hours before it was due to take place. This was very disappointing and we decided not to go ahead with it, as it wasn’t what we had asked for. I would suggest a bit more contact when booking these things in future.

"What a beautiful quirky property!"
It was a magical stay with friends. The owners where super helpful and even left us a bottle of wine and some basic bits, which was super thoughtful. Everything was so clean and up to a high standard. We can't wait to come back X

"What a lovely place to stay."
Unusual accommodation set in beautiful surroundings with the most amazing view. The host was very helpful and we were left a fab welcome pack. Thank you for a great stay!
-
"Absolutely amazing stay!"
Leah was the best host keeping me constantly updated in regards to weather and access to the back road to the pod! Arrival was seamless with access to the key box and a bottle of fizz and Welsh cakes! Folder provided with all information on devices and even places to visit and take away services! Massages were a dream and we made the most of the hot tub in the snow! The only niggle was that the showers do not stay hot for longer than a few minutes and the sink in the bathroom closest to the kitchen did leak under the basin. Thank you so much I would definitely visit again!

The town of Llanfair Caereinion is built upon the site of an old Roman fort, in the valley of the River Banwy. It is a thriving town built around The Church of St Mary, with a Post Office, two supermarkets, and a selection of three different pubs. The annual Llanfair Caereinion Carnival is very popular with locals, and proceeds through the town with a full parade of floats and dancing troupes, providing a Rio carnival atmosphere. There is a river walk along the banks of the Banwy leading to an Arboretum, containing over 25 different species of British trees, an ideal place to explore before stepping back in time and jumping on the start of the narrow gauge heritage steam railway that runs 8.5 miles west to Welshpool. Welshpool nestles into the upper reaches of the picturesque Severn Valley near the border between Wales and England. This bustling market town is surrounded by rolling hills and glorious unspoilt countryside. There's a unique blend of shops offering arts & crafts, fashion & leisure, fresh produce, and quality pubs and restaurants, as well as the town centre’s restored cock fighting pit and interesting Heritage Trail.
