Pentre Fawr Reviews

Natasha
Lovely property very clean, good communication with owner. Very equipt for all your needs on a short break. Maybe an extra couple of lights for outside on a nighttime as was difficult to see in hot tub. Otherwise perfect get away location. Would 100 recommend.
How have I not been to Wales? I mean I have been as child. But I do not remember Wales being this spectacular. The landscape is magnificent. Our week spent at Pentre Fawr was great. End of October too! Thankfully the weather was good, answered prayers that one! The location itself is really lovely, some of the early morning views of low levels clouds touching the hills with the sun starting to pierce through truly magical. I took pics! The barn was great, very clean, comfortable, spacious. Working wood burning stove, which made it very cosy! But central heating was an option to. The central heating was very good actually, it took very little time to warm up, thanks to the thermostat control. Very efficient. I was also TV, with the latest apps, WiFi, so kids were happy. The hot tub was ace! And with such views it was really something special. It was also quite large so the kids loved it too. I will definitely go back. Our week cost around 600. Because it was end of October, for sure, but it was an absolute bargain. Our only criticisms would be minor. 1 the shower upstairs in the bathroom, the water pressure was awful. And the showerhead was quite small, so it felt like you were showering under a large slow running tap. 2 The wooden decking outside, and especially around the hot tub is super slippery. This is just an unfortunate reality of wooden decking. However, what we would love to see, is perhaps a rubber nonslip mat between the back door and the hot tub. In the end, we had to lay down a beach towel permanently, to safely make it to the hot tub. My son 7yrs old did slip and fall down, he was a bit shaken, but thankfully it wasnt bad. 3 the hot tub, is perhaps showing its age a little. Some of the bubble jets dont work as well as others. Also a plastic panel near the controls kept falling off, and we had to fix it back on. These really are minor quibbles. As the hot tub is still really good. 4 Also this is not a criticism of the cottage. I would love information on how to get to Great Rhos, which is a mountain close by. Its one of the reasons why I chose the location. We ended up in a wood near new Radnor, walking up a logging track. And we didnt really seem to find great Rhos. There didnt seem to be many signs or parking or information. 5 lastly, I wouldve loved some information on potential walks that you can take from the actual cottage. Some of the surrounding hills, and landscape, is so enticing, but we were completely clueless as to whether you could actually walk across what seem to be farmland, land, where animals were grazing. some of the hills out the back of the cottage looked amazing. And I would very much like to have walked up them, but I had no idea whether there was a way to? Overall, we had a fantastic time Pentre Fawr. He gets a very happy thumbs up. I would go back, and I would certainly recommend it to anyone, wanting a relaxing retreat, that can also facilitate families, in a really spectacular location.
Alexandria
Great place!
Lovely cottage and very well equipped. Had a fantastic stay and would certainly visit again
Heaven on earth and the owners were incredible, special Thanks to Gareth and Julie for everything.

Kirbie
My partners 30th in couples it was so relaxed and enjoyable exactly what we wanted.
Rachel
We had the loveliest stay here, a group of 8 girls! We LOVED it and couldnt fault anything. Julie and her husband were so helpful and on hand if we needed anything, we could just drop them a text! They made us feel so comfortable. The cottage is LITERALLY in the middle of nowhere, but it was 100 worth the travel along the country roads.
Jackie
Fantastic. I couldnt of wished for anything more to celebrate my 60th. The cottage.scenery.friendliness. and the sheep lol. It was perfect
Hummad
Absolutely amazing place,stayed 1st4th May, definitely coming back for sure, Place was clean to perfection with breathtaking views and everything was in working order, Lobed the jaccuzi and patio area Great communication from julie when ever needed help or assistance .
Natasha
Amazing property with great views, very friendly helpful hosts. Will be back
The property owners were very kind and welcoming. The place was overall amazing.
Really lovely place to stay. We had a great time with our family and friends. I dont have any criticisms really. We organised a Tesco delivery for when we arrived which Id highly recommend as shops are far away. We definitely return and maybe try the property next door. Thank you
Hannah
The lodge is beautiful, clean, the hot tub was lovely and owners on hand if we needed anything! Would definitely recommend and will be visiting again
Tracey
Had a lovely few days at this peaceful location. The property was comfortable had everything we needed and more. Stayed there with my grand children and there was a safe garden area for them to ru around and play in and burn off lots of energy and the hot tub was a bonus for me and my daughter to relax in, all in all a wonderful week with lots to do, however a great place to do nothing and unwind.
Lindsay
Lovely property, great views, well equipped, Had a great week with whole family. Owners very helpful.
Absolutely perfect! Very clean, spacious and homely. A great place to unwind and escape to tranquility and recharge your batteries. Didn't want to leave.
Alexis
Wonderful stay in this picturesque spot. Quiet and wonderful views. Hot tub and bbq outside made it perfect for our celebrations for the weekend. Plenty of space for all 8 of us inside and lovely welcome from the owners too. Only rated down slightly due to state of bathroom when we arrived just needed a good clean.
Melanie
A lovely property in a stunning setting. The hosts are there if needed but in no way obtrusive. Definitely would recommend. A day out to Aberystwyth driving through the Elan Valley and via Devils bridge and Bwlch Nant Yr Arian forest visitor centre was delightful with amazing scenery.
We booked a small break 8 adults to celebrate a birthday and cannot recommend Pentre Fawr enough! Its very rural which only added to the beautiful scenery and privacy for us. The cottage is beautiful, clean and the perfect place to relax in the hot tub under the stars. Value for money and will definitely be back, thank you so much again to the lovely owners x
Clean and well appointed, friendly owners. even the weather was fine. lovely seeing the new lambs taking their first steps. Of an evening you cant see any lights from neighbors. Sitting in the hot tub and looking at the stars was an amazing and unforgettable experience. Its only a shame its so far to the nearest pub but you cant have it both ways Loved it and would defiantly come again
Georgina
We had an absolutely fabulous time, cottage has everything you could ever wish for. And in such an idyllic place. Wonderful to sit outside with a brew and watch all the baby lamb's being so playful. Absolutely spotless clean when we arrived. Kitchen is brilliant for cooking they have kitted it out fabulously the seven if us has truly enjoyed every minute. It's a little far of the beaten track, but that's exactly what we wanted. And this cottage didn't disappoint. We will definitely be booking for next year xx big thankyou to the host's, the cottage is a huge credit to you, we loved it
The weather was the worst we have had on holiday, but the barn was very well equipped which enabled us to have a fantastic time staying in playing games and going in the hot tub. The owners kept in touch to make sure we were ok during the sotrms. Couldn't fault anything. Thank you very much. Margaret Dawson
Shannon
Amazing property. Came here for my birthday and we had a great time. The owners were friendly and helpful. We will 100 be back. Cant recommend this place enough!!
Stephen
We chose to stay here for a Christmas Party get away. It was absolutely perfect! Beautifully appointed, lovely bedrooms, fantastic fireplace, and all this in the middle of nowhere.
Beautiful place to stay the lodge was very clean. Had everything there. Very comfortable scenery was lovely. Owners were lovely and good at communicating when we needed something. Best place I've been and we are going back. Hot tub lovely. Perfect getaway xx
Ameira
Hi, We had an amazing girly weekend, thank you so much for a gorgeous stay! The house was clean, tidy and had everything we needed, a lovely little welcome pack was a nice touch Only downside was the hot tub, was lovely on night 1 but then after that it had an awful smell to it, not sure if anyone attended to cleanadd chemicals as described. The shower also wouldnt turn to a normal temp and was very very hot so couldnt be used owner was contacted and offered to come and fix but as we were leaving the next morning we didnt think it neccessary. Other than that a lovely stay and would recommend to anyone and visit again! Thank you
Bryony
Overall this is a great property and the owners are great at communicating with you as well as being very welcoming. If you are looking for somewhere quiet and relaxing then this is perfect. The house is comfortable and very well equipped and the hot tub is the perfect way to unwind.
The house is beautiful has everything you need to have a relaxing holiday. Beautiful views of the countryside especially the morning sunrise. Personally I would like to thanks the owners for being understanding, helpful and generous.
Debbie
The house is perfect for a family with small children our grandchildren are 3 and 7. There is lots of space and well laid out. We were very comfortable and everyone enjoyed the hot tub. Julie and Gareth had kindly given us goodies when we arrived and called in to check everything was ok. The setting is gorgeous. There is a pebbly beach next to a stream a short walk from the house and kids large and small enjoyed a welly paddle. Great situation for Llandrindod Wells , Rheidol Railway and the beautiful Elan Valley.
Leanne
Had an absolutely fabulous time, lots of little extras which were very welcome. Accommodation clean and views spectacular. Would return again.
A beautiful converted barn down a single track road through lovely secluded Welsh valleys and hills. 3 holiday rentals in one place, but we couldn't hear the other guests at all, and when in the hot tub you couldn't be seen at all. Loads of lambs and sheep right outside and gorgeous views. Really spacious and well equipped, although some of the kitchen items really needed a clean. The surfaces and furniture were very well cleaned. Brief meeting with the owner who was lovely. Only saw the farmers once a day asode from that. A wonderful stay.
Callum
This was a brilliant trip away, definitely exceeded expectations from the views off of the garden to space and facilities provided. Exactly what we wanted and will definitely be back and I have already recommended to friends and family !
This is the second time we have stayed at this cottage. We absolutely love it. The cottage is clean and well looked after by the owners. Perfect getaway for families or friends with amazing surroundings.
Minesh

Jessica
Perfect cottage lovely break away with a party of 6. Would 100 book through Sykes Cottage and would also make a return trip.
Siobhan
A beautiful cottage with all the amenities that anyone would require. The cleanliness was exceptional and everything worked as expected. We were also pleased with the welcome gift on arrival and the area was also lovely for exploring.
Fantastic views, great hot tub and great stay. The owners were very kind and hospitable and we will return
Vincent
We had a lovely time. Everything was perfect. Thank you Julie and Gareth. See you soon.
My family loved the jacuzzi and the privacy of where the cottages are. It's all nature surrounding area so we took walks when it wasn't raining. The only bad thing was that there was the storm and we were limited to explore. Will definitely go back and recommend my family and friends.
