Enjoying a fantastic setting in the heart of the attractive village of Newbridge on Wye near Llandrindod Wells in Powys, Mid-Wales, Pondarosa is the ideal location for a large holiday party getting together for a truly memorable break and is a superb base from which to explore this beautiful part of the world. Outside, there is ample off-road parking with delightful gardens to the front and well-maintained, enclosed gardens to the rear with lawns and a patio area, making it the perfect spot for spending time alfresco and soaking up the sunshine whilst on holiday here. On entering the property, visitors will be amazed by how deceptively spacious it is, with a good-sized sitting room welcoming guests in with comfy seating and a feature log burner, helping to create an inviting ambience.

Pondarosa Reviews

A wonderfully warm, comfortable, clean property. Large modern rooms with all the eqipment you could want. Small items like soap, toilet rolls, bin bags all provided. The undercover hot tub was amazing. The games room a great facility although a bit chilly. The local pubs and shop were very welcoming and reasonably priced.Would highly recommend to all.
This was a lovely surprise! The property was clean and very spacious. The fire was all ready to go, and the hot tub, with its lights around it, was so inviting perfect for jumping straight in and relaxing. We hired this space for a 40th birthday celebration, and it was ideal. There are loads of rooms to choose from, so everyone can find a spot to settle down, and best of all, there are two pubs just a few minutes walk away. There was plenty of space for cars, and we enjoyed a lovely walk down to the river. We spent a lot of time in the games room, which was a real treat if youre into darts or pool. The village was incredibly welcoming, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I would definitely recommend this property for large groups!

A great venue for a family get together. Its like the tardis as from the road, it just looks like a standard bungalow. But open the door and its a bit of a cavern. Its a well appointed cavern at that, lovely bedrooms and living room was very comfortable. The courtyard was very nice, but sadly a bit too cold to eat out whilst we were there. The games room in the converted garage was brilliant, but the pool games could be heard in the adjacent bedroom, so dont put children in that one! It is a more residential area than we originally assumed, though it wasnt an issue for us. Great access for a walk down along the Wye and a short drive to explore the Elan Valley.
Ponderosa is a fabulous property. Lovely and spacious. Clean and comfy. Hot tub great. Didn't get chance to play pool.and darts but will next time. Great communication with the owners Helen. I did have to ring Helen due to no reply to my email from sykes prior to our visit. She was very accommodating
This house was everything and more than we expected. Fantastic family holiday, lovely owners, great neighbours, JUST PURFECT
Amazing house so clean & tidy, with games room and hot tub an added bonus. Situated in Newbridge on Wye making it perfect to get out and about for exploring mid Wales.
We visited the Pondarosa for a 40th birthday weekend with family. The house was well equipped with everything we could need. There were lots of little touches that made our stay very comfortable, and we felt that the owners really had thought of everything. The games room had lots of things to keep the children entertained. There was plenty of space for the 12 of us to sit inside or outside together. The hottub was a hit for the kids! Would definitely stay again.
Pondarosa was amazing and we made beautiful memories. The owners were very helpful and just one message away. The house was very clean and had all amenities, hot tub was the extra cherry. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

We had an amazing time at Pondarosa! The property is lovely, with lots of space and the everything we could need. We loved the hot tub, and the fact the hosts came to check the water quality every day was really reassuring. It rained quite a bit during our weekend stay, but we didn't mind as we played in the games room and had plenty of space to be indoors together. We hope to visit again in future.
Gurdeep
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Pondarosa with our family. The house was incredibly comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The facilities were excellent, and it truly felt like a home away from home. The hot tub was a hit with everyone and we loved the games room! With more than enough bedrooms and bathrooms, everyone had their own space, while managing to spend time with each other. Our host, Jane, was exceptional, going above and beyond to accommodate our requests and ensure we had a wonderful experience. Thanks so much for the opportunity to stay here, we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and wellequipped getaway!
