"Well what can we say."
Ty Hiraeth was everything we hoped it would be and more. Only home a week and we wish we were back. The lodge is stunning with a view from the living area and hot tub you could never get tired of. Great base for exploring the nearby area. The light railway at Welshpool is a must as is Shrewsbury. But what a property to enjoy anyway! Carol and David were amazing hosts-very responsive to all of our enquiries, but basically are just lovely people. Oh and the eggs from the chicken coup are amazing! Thank you both for your warm welcome, your hospitality and for one of the best weeks away we have had! Best wishes. Pauline & Graeme x
Good morning both! Well what a lovely review and fabulous start to our Monday! It was totally our pleasure to have you stay with us and we are delighted that you enjoyed your time in Ty Hiraeth and exploring the beauty of Monthomeryshire We do hope we can welcome you back one day! Best wishes, Carol and David xx Property Owner

"Absolutely beautifully appointed property with everything you could possibly think of being supplied by the owners."
The only two things I would say that is missing though is a full length mirror and a broom - both handy to have. The welcome pack contained some lovely goodies and the eggs and fresh milk were very gratefully received. Both Carol and David were superb hosts and so friendly and helpful.
Hi Lesley, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your very kind review. It was a pleasure to have you with us and we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay. We do hope we can welcome you again. With best wishes, Carol and David Property Owner

"What an amazing property!"
Immaculately clean with everything you’d need. The views are absolutely stunning, we never got tired of sitting looking out at them. Hot tub was a big hit with us all. It was lovely being able to collect fresh eggs from the chickens each day, and we loved meeting and feeding the alpacas! The hosts Carol and David were so lovely and were there if we needed them. Would definitely recommend to anyone!
Dear Sam and family, Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and we are delighted that you all enjoyed your stay with us here at Plas Robin! It was wonderful to introduce the boys to the alpacas and pleased you had fun collecting the eggs each morning too! Best wishes to you all and hope we can welcome you again one day! Best wishes, Carol and David xx Property Owner

"Beautiful property in a beautiful location."
Plas Robin was straight forward to find - the post code takes you directly there which is always a comfort after a long drive. Ty Hiraeth was better than our expectations (which were already high!), the views were magnificent and the property was spacious and spotless on arrival. There was everything we needed to have a more than comfortable stay and provided the perfect base for exploring some of mid Wales. Carol and David the hosts were lovely and welcoming, and happy to help with anything when needed. Would definitely recommend a stay here!
Dear Millie Thank you so much for your very kind review which is greatly appreciated. It was such a pleasure to have you stay with us and we do hope we can welcome you back to Plas Robin in the future. With kindest regards Carol and David Property Owner

"Had a wonderful break at plas robin ."
The lodge was the best we had stayed in and we have stayed in many. From the well equipped kitchen to the very tasteful decor all extremely high class. The owners were very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. I have got to mention the eggs from their very free range hens the best I have tasted in many a year. We will certainly be returning in the future for a relaxing break in this beautiful location. Thank you all at plas robin rural Retreats.
Dear Michael and Mandy, thank you so much for your very kind feedback! We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay with us. We do look forward to welcoming you again. Best wishes, Carol and David xx Property Owner

"Lovely holiday and such an amazing lodge."
We loved the location, beautiful views, hot tub, roaming animals and the luxury and comfort of the lodge. Carol made us feel so welcome and the local information provided in the lodge was much appreciated. We enjoyed walks from the door around Llandyssil and Montgomery. I’m sure we will be back!
Dear Rachel Thank you so much for your kind comments and we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay with us. It was wonderful that you explored so many of our lovely walks and you certainly got your steps in whilst here! We look forward to welcoming you again. Best wishes, Carol, David and Meg xx Property Owner

"This is a stunning property in a truly rural setting."
If you’re looking for a truly peaceful and tranquil setting this is the place to go. From the moment you walk into the lodge, you can see the love and effort that has been put into it. It was immaculately clean. The fixtures & furnishings are comfortable and high end. The underfloor heating was lovely as was the log burner. The beds were nice and comfortable. And the bonus of a hot tub. All surrounded by farmers fields. Being able to watch the sheep and the very free range chickens, and being able to collect some fresh eggs was just so relaxing. Carol and Dave the hosts are very friendly and welcoming, they can’t help you enough with any questions and there’s a brilliant where to go and what to do guide which we found very helpful. If it’s not in that lodge you honestly don’t need it! Oh… and the WiFi signal is fantastic! Always a bonus for us. Can’t wait to go back x
Hi Joann, it's so kind of you to submit such a lovely review and we greatly appreciate you taking the time to do so - thank you so much! So glad that you enjoyed your stay and I know you were very much ready for this break ....so glad you left rejuvenated. Look forward to seeing you both again and more egg collection adventures !! Best wishes, Carol and David xx Property Owner

"We had a really lovely stay and are already considering to return at some point."
Kids loved it especially the little one when it came to go and see the chickens in the mornings to pick eggs. Many things to see around and evening time you could just enjoy the quietness and realx yourselves in the hot tub. Carol and David is a very friendly couple who always were there if there were some questions. Meg the dog just eanted to play with our children and they loved it :) . Will definitely return .
Hi Kaspars, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a kind review - we are so grateful and delighted that you all enjoyed your stay. It was lovely to meet you all and thanks for looking after Meg! Best wishes, Carol and David xx Property Owner

"The facilities were fantastic with the lodge being so well equipped with everything."

"Such a beautiful lodge with stunning views!"
Carol, David and the family are so lovely and accommodating and gave us some amazing suggestions on places to go and things to do. Our Son loved waking up every day and visiting the bottom of the hill to help with the chickens and to play with Meg the dog. The lodge felt like a second home, so comfortable and beautifully decorated and the hot tub was a lovely touch overlooking the fields, perfect with a glass of wine for the end of a busy day entertaining the little ones. It was just the break we needed as a family, we’re already looking to book again!

"The setting of the Lodge would take some beating, it really is stunning, unfortunately we had really poor weather, which was a pity!"
There is a much appreciated Hot Tub to sit in and admire the beautiful views, day and night! There is also a BBQ and outdoor seating area, which unfortunately we didn’t get chance to use because of the weather! The interior of the Lodge is outstanding, colour schemes, quality of all the furnishing and because of floor to ceiling windows it’s also lovely and bright! The main area is spacious, a well equipped open plan kitchen, dining area and lounge, fire is very effective if you need to use it! Nice surprise of a Welcome Hamper, which is a lovely touch and much appreciated! The owners are very welcoming and helpful! I would certainly recommend this Lodge to anyone, it will take some beating!

"I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay here."
The chalet is beautiful, comfortable and the views outstanding. The hot tub is an obvious highlight but the small touches are just as important such as the range of kitchen staples supplied including fresh bread and homemade preservatives, as well as extra bedding and lovely towels. Carole, the host is so welcoming and accommodating and we all appreciated our break in the Welsh hills so much. Thank you Carole and family!

"I cannot recommend a stay at Ty Hiraeth enough!"
The property is perfectly appointed with all the modern comforts you could ask for in an idyllic country setting that is perfect for relaxing and recharging. We loved cooking on the bbq, enjoying a glass of wine in the hot tub, playing with the family dogs, watching the sun set over the rolling hills, collecting eggs from the hens in the mornings, and exploring the beautiful areas nearby. Carol and David are so welcoming and truly thought of every detail to make the cottage special and comfortable. We stayed here for a week and split time between completely unplugging and working from home, so I can also confirm that the wifi connection is great - just as strong as at the office! This is honestly one of the best rental properties we’ve ever stayed in and we cannot wait to return!
-
"Spot on! Really good experience, Dave and Carol, the owners made us very welcome and looked after us exceptionally well, the chalet was spotless, everything is new and clean, brilliant wood burner for the cold winter nights, really cosy!"
This has an exceptionally pleasant view down two valleys, it doesn't matter if it's raining or sunny, it's just lovely to sit and look... red kites flying below, sheepdogs rounding up the sheep, rainbows... a truly incredible place to stay, regardless of the season.
-
"Words cannot adequately describe it."
It is something you have to experience for yourself. It was a wonderful holiday and so much to do and see. Will book again for next year. It wasn't noticeable that COVID is going on except for the obvious face masks wearing etc. The facilities were first class definitely 5 star.

"The most amazing place owned by the most amazing people and animals!"
We stayed here for my boyfriends 30th birthday in October and they could not help enough! Carole and Dave went above and beyond in making our stay extra extra special and could not thank them enough! I was in talks with Carol for about 2 weeks before our stay helping me organise decorations and a birthday cake which was gorgeous! I am so happy we found this hidden gem and definitely making this our yearly trip! Meg and Mia are absolutely adorable and can’t help but have a soft spot for Meg especially when she was always outside our door and we loved playing fetch with them, I even bought myself a cup like Meg and use it everyday! The views are unreal and the hot tub is fantastic there is no place like it and we can’t wait for our next visit. Thanks Carole and Dave ❤️

The property
Montgomery 2.6 miles.
Ty Hiraeth, meaning 'house with a sense of coming home' in Welsh, is situated, surrounded by glorious rolling countryside in Llandyssil near Montgomery, close to the Welsh/Shropshire border.
On a quiet country lane, with the owner's house at the end of the road, this stunning and luxurious newly-built lodge is ideal for a couple or small group wanting to enjoy the peaceful tranquility of rural Wales, with a well-thought out design and lovely finishing touches.
Driving up to the property, there is off-road parking available for one car, and the flat gravel driveway of this all-ground-floor property is suitable for any guests with mobility issues.
Heading inside, there is a utility room with sink, coat hooks and a washing machine, for your convenience.
From here, the bright and airy open-plan living area has huge bi-folding doors, allowing in plenty of natural light and showcasing those spectacular countryside views.
This large space has underfloor heating, giving it a cosy and homely feel, with a dining table set for four, where you can gather together to enjoy meals lovingly prepared in the contemporary kitchen, fully-equipped with all of the necessities you will require, including a dishwasher, so you don't have to worry about the washing up.
The sitting room has a large l-shaped sofa you can relax onto after a day of exploring, with a cosy woodburning stove roaring in the corner and your choice of what to watch on the 55" nano-cell TV for that ultimate viewing experience, or simply just sit back and admire those glorious views.
The bi-fold doors open onto the decking, where a picnic bench-style table and chairs are ideal for an alfresco meal in the sunshine or to enjoy a meal cooked on the BBQ, while the two sun loungers are perfect for lounging in the sunshine, with the private hot tub close by, directly outside one of the bedrooms, should you want to add a touch of luxury to your stay.
There are two bedrooms in the lodge, a super-king-size and a twin with TVs and plenty or storage space, while the twin also features an en-suite shower room, immaculately styled and finished.
The owner's have thoughtfully provided monogrammed towels and robes as well as bespoke toiletries including soaps and bath soak, just one example of the careful and thoughtful touches this property exudes.
The master bedroom, with spectacular views, has the luxury of patio doors, which open up onto the garden/decking area and is perfect for keeping things cool on a summer's day.
The family bathroom with stunning roll top bath means you can enjoy an indulgent soak at the end of a busy day and completes the layout of this property.
Set amidst acres of countryside, enjoy walks, as well as easy access to the Offa's Dyke trail, and see if you can spot any Kites that are known to frequent the area.
