The majority of guests found the lodge to be very clean, with only a few isolated reports of cleanliness issues. These were not widespread concerns and seemed to be exceptions rather than the rule.

The location is highly praised for its beautiful views, tranquillity, and proximity to nature and local attractions. Some guests noted difficulty in finding the lodge initially, suggesting better signage could enhance the experience.

Comfort levels are generally good, with the lodge being described as cosy and welcoming. However, there are several mentions of uncomfortable mattresses and noise disturbances, which suggests room for improvement in this area.

    The Red Kite feeding station, just 10 minutes away was an amazing experience and would definately recommend a visit. The park was very peaceful and Snowy Owl Lodge [No 5] was in a private position. Probably a little TLC is needed regarding painting and rusty fittings [ in the bathroom] but it was very cosy and homely. On the first day we arrived we had a problem with the TV remote and WiFi but following a phone call we were impressed how quick they were resolved with new batteries and a booster.

    Single beds comfortable but double bed a little less so- this was mentioned in a review before. Hot tub was fantastic, especially after a day of walking. Our family really enjoyed their stay, the dogs enjoyed it too. Great grass area for the dogs to have a run after their ball. WiFi patchy but didn’t affect us too much as we’re all tired after our days out. Bit noisy only once during our stay after 11pm on the Friday night, one night out of 7 wasn’t bad at all. It was just loud chatting and cars/ motorcycles- probably only noticed as we were leaving early the next day. Surrounding area just beautiful, glad we visited the red kite feeding station and the locals in Rhayader were so friendly and helpful. Lovely places to eat out and a few pubs! We would come back here.

    And the lodge we stayed in was good. The mattress was a little hard and led to a few uncomfortable sleeps. There was definitely a lack of amenities in the lodge. We had 2 toilet rolls for a weeks holiday, no hand soap in the bathroom. Separate towels for the hot tub would have been appreciated, we only had bath towels. Besides that we had a great stay!
