  • "Lovely cottage, very quiet and peaceful."

    Everything you need (tumble dryer would be good) for a comfortable stay. Nice walks from the cottage and close to village. Lovely area for sightseeing too.

  • "Great location through the ford and high up the hillside with fantastic views."

    Accommodation had everything you need for a break, good sized enclosed garden for dogs to enjoy. Near enough to village to stroll down for local amenities. Only downside was the weather which no one can control. Overall i would recommend this accommodation and would use again.

  • "We had a fantastic stay at the Alders."

    The property was as described and more. Comfortable, clean and very quiet with glorious skies at night. The sheep in the field and listening to all the birds was very relaxing. We went out every day to explore the area. We would stay here again if visiting this part of Wales. Highly recommended.

  • "What a beautiful place to stay."

    Everything was perfect. Lovely flowers, wine and Welsh cakes on arrival, the Alders is so comfortable with everything in place for a truly relaxing holiday. Our dogs enjoyed the huge garden and seeing the sheep in the adjoining field each morning was an added attraction. The town is only a short walk away with plenty of shops, pubs and takeaways but due to the location of the property you feel you’re away from any hustle and bustle of daily life. A perfect place to take time out and chill.

  • "We found the accommodation to be extremely clean and comfortable with the added bonus of a beautiful enclosed garden, perfect for our 2 dogs."

    Just a short stroll into town with a well stocked shop and a couple of pubs. The food and beer in the Cain Valley Hotel was very good and they made our dogs welcome. The portions in the Chinese takeaway were large! We would definitely recommend The Alders to friends and hope to return soon.

  • "We had a wonderful relaxing holiday."

    The house was beautifully clean, had all the facilities we needed and most of all quiet. The garden was secure for our dog and walks on the doorstep, but also the shops were stones thorrow away. Thanks for a great vreak and happy memory making.

  • "Beautiful, tranquil spot."

    The fully enclosed garden is beautiful and perfect for "zoomies" for the dog. The sheep in the field next door of a morning was lovely to wake up to and the log burner was perfect for that inevitable wet day. The cottage is within walking distance to a well stocked SPAR shop, Chinese take away and fish and chip shop, not to mention pub restaurants. The property has everything you need and the owner was super quick to respond and resolve any issues (we had a plumbing issue, which was unforeaseeable and Elaine sorted it very promptly and considerately). The welcome pack was an added bonus and the flowers were a lovely touch. Worth noting that pets are not allowed in the bedrooms or on the furniture (this was not a problem for us but would be worth adding to the blurb incase others do have a dog that this would be a problem for). We went for day trips to the coast and into the local towns or just enjoyed the bird song and sheep baa-ing in the garden with a book. Perfect for switching off. Also, of note for any EV drivers, there aren't any local public points (at present) but less than 10 miles away in Welshpool there is parking with fast chargers and lots of shops, restaurants. B&Ms, Tescos etc to while away the charging time easily. All the places we visited while there had charging ports and we had no issues.

  • "A wonderful bungalow in a beautiful, tranquil setting, just a few minutes walk from Llanfyllin."

    The glorious garden was an extra bonus and much appreciated by our small dog. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and loved the thoughtful extras - garden chairs, darts for the outdoor dartboard.

  • "Fantastic spacious bungalow in a great location close to Llanfyllin centre but completed secluded."

    It is a great property for anyone with a reactive dog as the garden is huge and fully enclosed with no passing cars or people to the property. There is gated access through a quiet and unused field area and the house has its own second gate and is fully enclosed. The open plan layout is excellent and the 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms are perfect. We loved watching the woodpecker and numerous tits using the peanut bird feeder just outside the kitchen window. The welcome food and drinks were much appreciated. Overall, a fabulous property that is wholeheartedly recommended.

  • "Thank you for such a lovely stay."

    The house was so well equipped for everything we could possibly have needed. The information and maps of local walks was a great bonus and we enjoyed exploring the local countryside. We have a dog who is reactive if she sees another dog so finding somewhere to stay that is truly private and where neighbouring dogs aren’t present is really important to us. This property definitely fits that bill. The sheep coming up to the garden fence first thing in the morning was lovely.

    Lovely location, had everything you could want and the owner was great - nothing was too much trouble and she would go above and beyond to try and accommodate you. There are many places to eat just a short walk into the village and the beach was only just over an hour away. The only negative (which is our problem not the house), is if you’ve got a small dog or a dog prepared to jump a 3-4ft fence then really you need to keep a dog on a lead in the garden. Ours is naughty and tried to escape on a couple of occasions, and there are lots of lovely trees and bushes dotted around so you can’t keep an eye on them very easily.

From the cottage there are many fantastic walks and I heartily recommend taking a hike up to the Lonely Tree and down around the river valley. The local butcher supplied us some amazing produce allowing me to cook one of the best Sunday Roasts I’ve ever managed and his prices were very good too. There’s also fresh garden produce readily available, we picked the right time of year as many local gardeners had harvested their crops and were selling or giving away excess so we had a lot of fruit and vegetables given to us. It really was a fantastic break and we are already looking to come back when time allows us.
