Guests say

Oak Cottage in Llanidloes is highly praised for its stunning views, friendly hosts, and peaceful setting. Guests appreciate the immaculate cleanliness, cosy atmosphere, and the abundant birdlife. Despite some comments on the steep approach and basic facilities, the charm of the cottage, helpful local information provided by the owners, and the delightful garden are recurrent positive themes.

Guests consistently describe the cottage as immaculately clean, cosy, and warm, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that exceeds expectations.

The location is celebrated for its fantastic views and tranquillity, with the cottage being a perfect base for exploring Mid Wales. However, some guests noted the steep approach and the narrow lane, which slightly impacted the score.

The cottage is described as cosy and comfortable, with a warm and inviting atmosphere. However, a few guests mentioned the small size of the shower cubicle and the steep access, which suggests that comfort could be improved for some visitors.

Facilities are generally appreciated, with the cottage providing everything needed for a stay. Some guests experienced difficulties with the TV and oven, and there were comments about the lack of mobile reception and internet outside the cottage, which affected the score.

While the hosts are frequently mentioned as friendly and helpful, providing local information and recommendations, there is no mention of gifts in the reviews. Therefore, it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness in terms of gifts, and the score is set to null.

About this property

ADULT ONLY PROPERTY. Nestled in the heart of Powys near the pretty, Welsh town of Llanidloes, is this traditional-style cottage set in a former grinding mill. Boasting bags of charm and a cosy interior, this wonderful barn conversion is ideal for a couple seeking a country break away from everyday routine. Set all on ground floor, you climb up four external steps to reach the homely comforts of the open-plan living room, complete with Freeview TV, WiFi and an electric stove. Curl up on the sofa with your other half and feel the warmth filling the space on a cold wintry evening. A dining area rests adjacent to the kitchen for you to rustle up a romantic dinner, whilst the well-presented double room is accompanied by bedside tables for unwinding with a good book and a fitted wardrobe to stow away your belongings. A clean and tidy shower room rests next to this, just up one step from the lounge. Enjoy the delights of the pretty garden to the rear, which is shared with the other charming properties on the owner's land. You can sit out on a fresh morning at the bistro set to the front and take in the picturesque views with a cup of coffee. This elevated position enveloped by the working farm and panoramic landscape scenery, offers walking and cycling right from the doorstep. Explore the ancient Hafren Forest, the stunning lake of Llyn Clywedog or even Powis Castle with its world famous gardens. Aberystwyth is within driving distance, as is the popular fishing port of Aberdovey, for more fun-filled days out. With plenty to see and do in a beautiful location, and a delightful base from which to do so, you won't want to miss a chance to stay at Oak Cottage. Note: Property can be booked with Ref. 12563 and 12564, together they sleep nine people.

Llanidloes nestles on the eastern slopes of the Cambrian Mountains, with access to some of the most unspoilt scenery both Wales and the Welsh/Shropshire Borders have to offer. There are plenty of activities to enjoy, with walking, cycling, riding, fishing, tennis, golf, swimming and shooting all available within 10 miles. Further afield is Powis Castle with its world famous gardens, the Welsh Coast, with its fine beaches and Rhayader and the Elan Valley are 40 minutes away; the Shropshire towns of Ludlow and Shrewsbury are within easy reach, as are the North Wales destinations of Llangollen and Snowdonia.
