"We had a lovely stay here and enjoyed every minute of - the house itself is really comfortable and spacious. The wild flowers, birds, woodlands and pretty walks were wonderful. The view from the house is stunning; rolling hills and fields. We had small children with us who all loved the nearby stream, walks in the woods and space to run about in- a completely natural adventure playground! We'd definitely recommend a stay here to anyone wanting to enjoy some peace in the wilds in a really comfortable house with everything you might need..."

"The location of the cottage is perfect, high up a small track/road, which meant great views of the surrounding countryside. The area is great for walking, Monty our greyhound loved it (especially spying a rabbit - obviously dogs arent allowed off lead). Down the road is a place called fishpools which is also great for walking. The house is stunning, roomy and cosy with everything you could need in the kitchen. There are views from each room, even the bathrooms! A nice touch was the photo albums showing each stage of it being built. The table tennis was also a lot of fun!"

"There was a real attention to detail in the cleanliness and preparation of the rental. It made 'moving in' so easy. The log burner and comfortable beds made the environment one in which to instantly relax being able to watch superb skies pass by Wonderful cycling and walking. Access to interesting places and Hay on Wye was fantastic for pottering and bookshops. The kitchen at Hiraeth made cooking a pleasure - there are places to eat round and about but you do need to drive to them. Staying in was no hardship Beautiful and characterful properly, wonderfully presented and plenty of space for boots, wet kit and outdoor clothing. Superb walking straight out of the back door and up on to the hills."
