Cottage holiday rentals in Powys

We had an amazing stay at the cottage. The house was just perfect, the hot tub was divine and the only neighbours we saw were the 2 lovely horses, Saffy and Angel.

What a beautiful spot! I really needed a “break from it all” and this cottage had it all. Clean, warm, cosy in an absolutely stunning location. Surrounded by green fields and trees, animals, lakes and beautiful gardens. The hot tub was just Devine, especially at night when the fairy lights came on. I’ve never felt so toasty- the underfloor heating was so effective, especially as we had a cold weekend weatherwise. Welshpool is a lovely town to visit and the local waterfalls are stunning. We had a great walk around Lake Vrynwy and the Giants Hand is a must see. Lovely to see the farm animals, and the added bonus was a secure paddock for the dogs to run in. Thank you so much Theresa xxxx

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Good Life. The space was well maintained and felt like a home. We made the most of the hot tub and kitchen facilities during our stay. The location is beautiful and peaceful. Would recommend for anyone looking for a quiet trip away with a partner or close friend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the house was very clean and tidy and Clare went above and beyond with complimentary cake and fizz on arrival. Clare was very responsive when we had questions about the area. The house felt like a home, and it was great to be able to make the most of the spa pool after a day out. We would definitely book again.

The cottage is beautiful and set in beautiful surroundings. Although the weather wasn’t that great , we still had a fantastic time and the hot tub was lovely. I would definitely recommend a stay here .

This stay was amazing, perfect to relax and switch off

Sarah was very quick at responding to any enquiries I had and was always on Hand to give very helpful information regarding our stay. The location is very remote and absolutely beautiful, I would definitely recommend using the what3words app as this took me right to the doortstep, it may have been difficult to find using a standard satnav but totally worth it for the peace and the views!! The property was pristine and stocked with everything you can think of for your stay excluding food. There was a Asda express nearby so we could top up on essentials and the nearest town was less than 10 minutes away however we didn’t stay long enough to check this out, the house comes with a whole pinboard of leaflets giving plenty of options for local things to do. We would definitely return!! Thanks :)

Incredible place! We had a lovely couple of nights here. The house is full of character and has everything you need and the enclosed garden was great for our young daughter and dogs. Very peaceful location so sitting in the hot tub in the evenings was very relaxing. The added bonus of access to the river at the bottom of the garden was great! Will checked us in and gave us some suggestions of local walks and things to do which was ideal. Would highly recommend!!

Have had the most relaxing stay in this beautiful little cottage. It had everything we needed and more and the welcome hamper was lovely, the Welsh cakes and jam did not last long ! Comfy beds, perfect setting, always able to park and i loved the wooden shutters. A great find, will definitely revisit . Thank you Sam x

James is amiable, thorough, very well known with the environment of the location, a near perfect host. We would have scored 6 stars if it was possible and if it wasn’t for the final 1.5miles drive where we (as low country inhabitants) struggled with the challenges. The cottage itself was to die for, well equipped, we loved the conservatory and James’ explanations on what to do in the surrounding area. Hard is (was for us) the have to visit venue! Thanks James and John for your hospitality.

A wonderful collage for anyone seeking peace and quiet in the countryside. The location is perfect for exploring the Brecon Beacons, with numerous scenic walks and hiking trails within a 15-minute drive. The surroundings are serene, with beautiful rural views and a sense of calm. Helen and Stacie were welcoming and thoughtful hosts. Thank you both for a fantastic stay!

We had a fantastic week at Aberdar. The weather was amazing all week, so we spent our time outside enjoying the garden, orchard and stream, and sitting at the various seating areas to avoid the wind if it got too strong. We only made 3 trips away from Aberdar.. a stunning part of Wales and it was hard to put the camera down. A pleasure to drive on the pothole free roads and we hardly saw anyone apart from friendly farmers. Our anxious rescue dog was very happy enjoying the space and he was relaxed all week, as were we. Aberdar has it all.. very clean and homely, very well equipped with everything we needed, useful information file provided for guests, beautiful views and loved hearing the sheep, cows and stream. If you are tall, remember to duck when going through the doorways.. we kept forgetting! This was a very special trip for us and we will be returning!

Judith was great, as I had not read that the oven was a small box type. I brought a massive lasagne and I think it was slightly beyond the oven’s capability. After 40 mins when it was still not cooked through, I messaged Judith and she put it in her oven. She knocked later with my steaming hot perfectly cooked lasagne and a smile on her face. She was very helpful.

We had a wonderful stay! The location is very peaceful and perfect for relaxing. The host was extremely kind and attentive, making us feel very welcome. The terrace and garden were beautiful – ideal for enjoying the sun and the lovely view of nature. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped with everything we needed. Highly recommended – we would definitely love to come back!

We had a lovely time staying in Brecon! The house was brilliant and really cosy when we got the fire going. Parking wasn’t an issue which was our only potential concern, but we got parked so close it wasn’t a problem. Really recommend this property to stay if you are looking for a great holiday in a stunning part of wales!

If I could give this place 6 stars I would! A stunning place, with everything you’d need and more for a super homely, comfortable stay. Gareth left us some fresh milk, bread and cookies and had a fridge and kitchen full of essentials. The beds were so comfortable. What a luxurious stay! Parking was easy and communication with Gareth was great.

The cottage location is great for those who are looking for outdoor activities like hiking, cycling and horse riding. The cottage was tidy, but the kitchen facilities weren’t up to par (wasn’t a big deal for us tbh, coz we got ready to eat food). The reception is very weak in the cottage area, but WiFi connection is available. The host was very friendly and helpful. She provided us a document with lists of recommendations (restaurants, activities, and groceries,..etc) in the area which was really helpful. Just make sure to get the exact location before arrival before losing the signal in the area.

A very beautiful place to stay in magnificent surroundings. If you love birdsong stay here.

Clare's cottage was perfect for our stay. It was very comfortable, with a well equipped kitchen. The location is just fantastic for exploring the wonderful valley with all it's natural wonder, and coming home to a warm fire was great.

Gorgeous cottage in beautifully peaceful surroundings and walking routes from the doorstep. We loved staying here despite rain and the beautifully kept private gardens that guests can access on Thursdays are just lovely to walk around with birdsong all around you. We enjoyed the guest gardens with views to the distant Brecon hills when we had a quiet moment. Very easy to find and Alastair provides excellent additional information on restaurants, walks and local amenities. You are only 30 mins from Hay on Wye and other lovely places.

Kathy’s cottage in Crickhowell is fantastic – beautifully decorated, spotless, and extremely well equipped. Everything was clean and tidy, and we felt relaxed as soon as we walked through the door. The location is perfect: peaceful and quiet, yet within easy walking distance of all the lovely shops, restaurants and pubs in Crickhowell – easily nicest town in South Wales! Kathy was a brilliant host, with clear, timely communication and a warm, welcoming approach. Couldn’t recommend it more highly.

The cottage is really cosy and comfortable with everything provided. The location is really peaceful with a lake nearby. We were given clear instructions on how to find the property with a very easy check in. would definitely recommend.

Great place to stay; cosy, very very clean and comfortable. Central place to visit the overwhelming nature of the Brecon Beacons.

such wonderful hosts who made us feel right at home, incredibly generous and helpful in instructions finding this beautiful cottage in the heart of the countryside. like something from a fantasy novel, you will be in awe of the beautiful surroundings and generous hosting, we will definitely be coming back
