We had a wonderful stay at The Cwm - Cilgee, it was very comfortable, clean and warm for our arrival. The views are wonderful: watching the lambs, the red kites, and the setting sun behind the distant hills made it very relaxing. The location is great for finding places to walk - our favourite was Elan Valley which offered plenty for us and the dogRead mores. Will certainly book up again. A lovely welcome pack, thank you!!

If youre looking for a get away from it all holiday this is the place to be. The views are stunning and only interrupted by the red kites flying.

Arrived Friday evening and the cabin was lit, toasty warm, christmas decorations on, and a christmassy bowl of quality street on the table. It was a real treat to arrive after a longish drive in mid-December. Hot-tub was preheated too which is a thoughtful touch, and we wasted no time making use of it! The rooms are immaculate, i'd never believe a Read moredog (or person for that matter) had stepped foot in there before. The views are spectacular. Opening the curtains each morning was a real wow moment Hide

We (4 adults & 2 dogs) arrived & were greeted by a welcome food pack of the highest quality produce. The cabin/cottage offers a spacious open plan living/kitchen area with 2 double-bedded bedrooms & a spacious bathroom with a lovely walk-in shower. The fantastic hot tub is attached to the main property facing outwards to the wonderful valley view. The kitchen is so well equipped. Sarah & Tony are wonderfully attentive & helpful owners. Loved it so much we've booked for next year already.

Rachel
We enjoyed a fabulous holiday in this wonderful property. Spacious, clean, light and extremely comfortable with stunning views. Complete peace and quiet yet only 15 minutes from a Tesco/Aldi plus some useful and unique independent shops in Rhayader. Beautiful countryside to explore, lovely walks to enjoy during the day and a welcoming hot tub from where you can view the sun set over the hills whilst watching the red kites. Highly recommend and we will return.
Oliver
An amazing stay in an amazing location! We could have easily stayed for another week. The views are incredible and the accommodation had everything you can possibly think of or need. Just sit in the hot tub and taking in the breath taking view, you'll feel so relaxed it is untrue!

We had the most incredible stay at the cabin over the Easter weekend. The cabin was immaculate with some lovely little touches on our arrival. The children loved the hot tub whilst we sat and enjoyed the amazing view over a glass of wine. It didnt disappoint we will certainly be back soon!

We have just come back from the most fantastic holiday in The Cwm Cabin. We are a family of 4 with 2 labradors. We arrived late on a Friday evening and the hosts had left lights on for our arrival and a wonderful welcome food bundle. When we woke up the next morning the view was breathtaking. The cottage is a very high standard with an equally impr essive hot tub. The scenery in the Elan Valley is stunning and the walks were incredible. Nothing is too much trouble for the hosts. Thank you so much
