"Such an amazing stay in a beautiful setting."
We had such a relaxing time at Willow, everything we needed and more! The pod really is a hidden gem, so comfy & cosy yet more than enough room for our family of 4, with the most amazing surroundings & views, especially when relaxing in the hot tub which was also 1 of our highlights! So much space for my boys to play football too, they had a great time! We really didn’t want to leave

"Willow is our new favourite place!"
❤️ Myself and my husband stayed here for 3 nights in August. The owners Gemma and Mark have literally thought of everything to make sure their guests stay is just perfect. From delicious chocolates on the bed to prosecco and cider chilling in the fridge (and not forgetting the marshmallows, crisps and Welsh cake that also greeted us!) what a lovely touch to welcome us to our beautiful holiday home. The hot tub is AMAZING!! Gemma and Mark pre lit it for our arrival so it was ready for us to get in when we arrived. Which we did! We spent lots of time in it relaxing and looking at all the stars of an evening. It was just perfect. The bed was extremely comfortable, the shower was great, it has excellent kitchen facilities with everything you need and all in all we had the most wonderful relaxing time here and we will definitely be returning soon!
Thank you Rach for your lovely feedback! We’re so pleased you had a fab time! We can’t wait to welcome you back ❤️ Property Owner

"It was our first time to stay in a pod and we are very glad to have chosen Willow."
We felt very welcomed as we entered the pod. The owners have put a very outstanding effort in making sure that guests have just the relaxing break they need. Everything in the pod was excellent. We had a fab time in the hot tub 1) whilst the sun was shining as well as 2) whilst it was raining. This place is really worth a try especially for the nature lovers out there. The location is perfect as there are lots of places to visit i.e. Elan Valley. 2 nights were not enough to explore the beauty that surrounds this place. Thanks to this hidden gem escape for giving us a wonderful experience. We will be back.
Oh wow Thank you so much Lourelai for your amazing feedback ! We’re so happy you all had a wonderful stay! Thank you for leaving Willow so well cared for ! It is really appreciated We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. Property Owner
