  We booked this cottage for my partners birthday and to get away to relax in the stunning Welsh countryside.

  We did manage to achieve this, however we were disturbed by the adjacent cottage on two nights. You'd expect anyone getting away to the countryside to respect their surroundings and others around them, but unfortunately this wasn't the case. The first group who we were met with the first night of our stay were a nightmare. They were there to party, play loud music and drink. To his credit, I sent a text to Arwel during the night and by the next day he'd cut their stay short. They had trashed tje cottage and unfortunately Arwel had to clear it all up. I'd like to preface that none of the groups' behaviour is a reflection of Arwel at all. He was always on hand to help and always checked if we were okay, if we needed anything etc. We then had a blissful five days with no disturbances until the group on our last night arrived. Guests were very noisy in the pool and also a few of the guests were disruptive and shined their phone torches towards us and then took flash photos whilst we were trying to get some peace in the hot tub, which is really weird behaviour. This was gone 11pm, and unfortunately it put a dampener on what was otherwise a wonderful week away. We left early due to this as I wasn't comfortable with the ordeal. It seems we had a streak of bad luck, as judging from the other reviews the guests are usually respectful and quiet. I don't want this review to be all negative, because we had the best time despite the other guests. Everything else was absolutely perfect! The cottage was wonderful and can't fault it. The scenery was beautiful, there were lots of cows and sheep and green hills. Arwel always made sure we had everything we needed and asked if we had enough logs etc. The bed was the comfiest we'd slept in for ages, kitchen was well equipped and immaculate inside. We made a lovely roast dinner in it. Loved the hot tub, it was the best maintained one we've had! We had an amazing five nights and we seen a lot of beautiful sights including the nearby waterfall and lake. You could also see all the stars as there's zero light pollution in the area. Wales is truly stunning. Shame about the lack of privacy though. We would love come back and would hope that next time we get luckier with the guests we'd share the space with.

  This one bedroom cottage shares the main grounds with a house which can sleep 15.

  However, the house is sufficiently far enough away from the cottage that there is little noise, even when a large group is staying there. The grounds are well kept and full of flower beds and tubs which are tended to regularly by Del. The cottage itself is well equipped for self catering, boasting a gas oven and hob, which came in very useful when we experienced power cuts during our week's stay; and how blissful to be able to cook with gas!!! The main door opens straight into the lounge and dining area, boasting a high ceiling with stain glass window. The spacious bedroom is off this area and has a dressing table, two bedside cabinets and wardrobe, along with comfortable double bed. The well equipped kitchen is accessed through an open doorway from the lounge area, and as well as the gas oven and hob has dishwasher, washing machine, microwave and under counter fridge and freezer, and plenty of cupboard space, which is filled with crockery, pots and pans, cutlery and anything else you might need! The combined shower room and toilet, with sink, is situated off the kitchen. The back door opens onto a small patio area where there is are table and chairs for two, with parasol plus barbecue, leading to a lawned area and raised platform containing a two person hot-tub with large parasol. You can see the main house from this area, but it is sufficiently far enough away not to be intrusive. The owners, Arwell and Del are friendly and welcoming, making sure they were on hand when we arrived, and attending every day to see to the hot tub. Arwell kept us informed re the re-establishment of power and took pains to make sure we enjoyed our stay and Del provided us with cake and milk. We highly recommend Bwthen ty Newydd as a place to enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside, with plenty of places to visit and walks around the area; or somewhere just to stay and relax.

  We have stayed at Bwthyn Ty Newydd twice now over Christmas and have absolutely loved it.

  The cottage is in a lovely quiet location with beautiful views all around. The owner, Mr.Jones is incredibly helpful and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. He filled the hot tub up every morning for us and we were never disturbed. What can I say about the cottage itself? Gorgeous and cosy, very clean, nice big comfy bed in a pretty bedroom, good size bathroom and shower cubicle, spacious kitchen with a washing machine, fridge, freezer and dishwasher, lovely private garden with a well looked after hot tub and you can park right outside the front door! Arriving to homemade cakes and milk in the fridge was a lovely little surprise after a 5 hour journey. The cottage is equipped really with everything you could possibly need. The leaflets in the living room are a great idea and helpful for planning a day out. There are so many things to do and see, it is such an ideal location. Just writing about it makes me want to go back again! We really did enjoy our stay and cannot wait to book for a third time, we're hoping to stay in the summer this year. We really can't recommend this cottage enough, all I can say is book a holiday and see for yourselves, you wont be disappointed. Thank you for another lovely peaceful Christmas holiday!

  We had a lovely week at Bwthyn Ty Newydd which sits in a quiet and secluded location.

  Easy to find, with the help of Google Maps, we were greeted with a warm welcome and a lovely selection of homemade cakes which went down well with a cuppa after our long journey (milk was in the fridge, too). All you could need is supplied in the accommodation, including a lovely roaring fire when we walked in which we kept going with the supplied logs. The kitchen is well equipped, the bed is comfy and the living room was cosy when nighttime arrived. In the garden, the hot tub is the perfect size for two and we enjoyed sitting out in the sun, watching the lambs enjoying their new freedom in the nearby fields. If peace and quiet are what you are after, this is the perfect location for it and clear night skies allowed for amazing star gazing. A lovely chapel can be found at the end of the road with a lake, waterfall and other walking routes a short drive away. You're also only a couple of hours away from the coast and Snowdonia isn't too far either. Welshpool and Newtown have a good selection of supermarkets and there are a few pubs around too. Lovely stay - highly recommended.

  What a fantastic little cottage!

  This place was just perfect for a quiet, relaxing get away from it all for two. We stayed for four nights and enjoyed every single one! Upon arrival we were greeted by delicious home made scones, baked by Mrs Jones, which were most welcome after our long journey. We made use of the log burner and hot tub every evening, the perfect accompaniment to a bottle of bubbles! During the day time we explored the local town of Welshpool, we enjoyed a festive Christmas market & a meal at the Royal Oak hotel. We also took a trip over to the local National Trust property Powys Castle & then another day we visited the spectacular Lake Vrynwy for a nice long walk. So there is plenty to do if you feel like getting out & about. We felt very welcome during our stay & Mr Jones couldn't do enough for us! He even let us use the fantastic indoor swimming pool at the larger house next door, as it was vacant during our stay. We would absolutely love to come back next year & even bring friends to try out the larger house too!
