  • "Our stay at Mynydd y Glyn Lodge was absolutely perfect."

    Surrounded by the most beautiful views, this place was the perfect spot for a much needed peaceful week away. The lodge itself was immaculate and beautifully designed, with a very cosy feel. The fully equipped kitchen was ideal for preparing meals & the beds were very comfy! We enjoyed sitting at the breakfast bar in the morning & looking out at the snowy landscape which we were so very lucky to experience. The hot tub is also a standout feature & very relaxing of an evening. The location was more than ideal for us & plenty of space to let our dog roam; it was nice to know she was safe and secure. Carole & Ian were incredibly welcoming, providing detailed instructions for the lodge and thoughtful touches like a basket of local goodies, including Welsh cakes, bread, milk & tea on arrival. There was also a welcome basket for our dog, which came very handy! It’s clear they take great pride in offering guests an unforgettable experience. We loved every minute of our stay & hope to return back some time in the future!

  • "Well what can we say, this is an absolutely stunning holiday lodge, very clean, spacious and everything is catered for, it really is outstanding."

    It is set in the most beautiful, quiet, rural location in an elevated position with fantastic views all around. It was great to relax in the hot tub of an evening with a glass of wine, just taking in the surroundings. Carole and Ian are great hosts, really friendly and courteous and even helped with the local Doctors details when my Mum needed some medical attention. We cannot recommend Mynydd Y Glyn Lodge enough and already looking forward to our next holiday there.

    This has been one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in, everything from a lovely welcome pack on our arrival to the Hot Tub with views and the enclosed garden for our chocolate Lab.

  • "Beautiful lodge for those seeking peace, beauty, and a touch of luxury."

    Total recuperation which is what we needed. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a warm welcome, complete with a thoughtfully prepared basket filled with local treats, setting the tone for a stay that was both comfortable and indulgent. The lodge itself is beautifully appointed, with every detail carefully considered. The interior is cosy yet modern, offering all the comforts of home, but with the added bonus of stunning, uninterrupted views of the beautiful countryside. One of the highlights is the hot tub. Perfectly positioned to take in the views. As the day fades into night, the lack of light pollution offers an unparalleled opportunity for stargazing. Lying back in the hot tub, watching the night sky come alive with stars, is a magical experience that truly sets this place apart. The lodge is ideally located for those who love walking and being in nature. With fantastic trails starting right from the doorstep. The lodge offers the perfect blend of luxury, nature, and thoughtful touches that make your stay special. Whether you’re looking to recharge your batteries or simply enjoy the beauty of the outdoors, this is a place where you can truly unwind.

  • "Our stay was wonderful!"

    The quiet and peaceful location was ideal to switch off from day to day life and take in the beautiful views and surroundings! The lodge and grounds are secure which meant that our dog could roam freely whilst we were on the veranda or in the hot tub and had plenty of room to run around or to watch her new sheep friends. The lodge is well equipped with everything needed for an enjoyable stay and the little welcome basket was a thoughtful touch. We loved our stay and hope to be back in the future!

  • "An absolute gem in the heart of the Welsh countryside!"

    On arrival we were met by Carole and Ian who went through everything we needed to help us make the most of our mini weekend break away. The hot tub was so good! Easy to use and clean. The kitchen had absolutely everything you would need and much more, a gorgeous little welcome hamper for us and our dog. The dog was very happy in the garden ,plenty of room to run around and play and no places to escape as very secure. I have to say this is probably the nicest lodge we have stayed in by far , the scenery is so peaceful and quiet apart from the sheep but that's the beauty of the countryside. Thanks for having us and can't wait to return soon. Amy, aeron, ceulan, rosanna and mali

  • "Mynydd Y Glyn Lodge, exceeded all of our expectations."

    It was much bigger than expected and the garden was perfect for our Cockapoo to burn off some energy without worrying about him getting out of the enclosed garden. We have stayed in a lot of properties but never one so clean! You could tell that a lot of care has gone into creating such a beautiful property. The property is surrounded by sheep fields and very rural (we were even lucky enough to see the Northern Lights on the first night!) but only a short drive to civilisation if needed, so you get the best of both worlds. I would recommend visiting Lake Vyrnwy its a really easy drive and has stunning views. The owners were really friendly and were available if we needed them. If you are looking to relax then this is absolutely the property for you. We will defiantly be returning!

    Tranquil setting with amazing views and so many beautiful places to visit nearby. The gardens are fully enclosed, which kept our dogs safe and secure.

Many thanks to the owners for touching base on arrival and being available if required.

    It's honestly one of the most well equipped places we've been too. Lovely little touches like the welcome hamper, the texts to check in if we were alright and if we needed any help with anything and also a little doggie hamper too! Its in a lovely secluded area (no one looking in on you) so quiet and the views were just outstanding. With posting pictures on Instagram we've already recommended to lot of our friends who find it hard to find a nice place whilst bringing a dog. We'd definitely come back in a heartbeat if we are looking for getaway from the noises of work and the city. Couldn't recommend this place and the hosts enough! Great value for money.

The property

Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant 2.8 miles.

Mynydd Y Glyn Lodge is a stunning, two-bedroom holiday retreat resting on the outskirts of Llanfyllin, near Llanrhaeadr-Ym-Mochnant, in Powys.

Boasting off-road parking for up to six cars, an enclosed decking enjoying picturesque views of distant mountaintops, and a superb collection of vibrant, contemporary interiors, this wonderful abode welcomes a family or group of four for a relaxing, fuss-free countryside escape in the heart of North Wales.

Park up outside Mynydd Y Glyn Lodge, your brilliant new home-from-home, taking a moment to pause and breathe in your tranquil new rural surroundings.

Make your way onto the outdoor decking, where you will find seating to enjoy your morning cups of coffee whilst the presence of your very own private, wood-fired hot tub only serves to add further indulgence to your fabulous getaway.

Inside, discover an array of tastefully-appointed living spaces, starting with a boot room that contains a washer/dryer to keep your laundry fresh throughout your stay.

Continue into the open-plan living area, where you can get to work preparing delicious meals in the fully-equipped kitchen whilst you chat with loved ones who are sat at the breakfast bar, savour dinners around the dining table over a glass of your favourite tipple, before eventually kicking back to unwind on the plush velvet corner sofa in the sitting space, where a wall-mounted Smart TV and a sleek, electric fireplace heighten the already exquisite living quarter.

When sleep calls, refresh with a rejuvenating shower before you finally settle down for a well-earned rest in either a decadent super-king (zip/link) or a king-size bedroom, the latter of which is accompanied by its very own en-suite shower room.

When you're ready, set out to explore what's on offer in your local area.

A brief car trip will take you into nearby Llanrhaeadr-Ym-Mochnant, a quaint village where you can stock up on essentials at the SPAR before tucking into a pub lunch at The Hand Inn or some cake and coffee at Gegin Fach cafe.

Continue your day out by heading for the breathtaking natural site of Pistyll Rhaeadr Waterfall, stopping by to gaze at the rushing waters before you venture south to the outstanding RSPB Llyn Vyrnwy.

Your stay in the region would be incomplete without exploring the wonders of the Eryri National Park, with the Bala Lake Railway, Harlech Castle, Dolbadarn Castle, and Rhaeadr Y Graig Lwyd just a few of the iconic landmarks and attractions waiting to be visited.

Enjoy the ultimate getaway in North Wales by booking Mynydd Y Glyn Lodge.
