Here, in our four individual cottages in the three acres of gardens
and mixed woodlands of a Victorian Hunting Lodge you have the opportunity
to immerse yourself in the peace & quiet of undisturbed nature.
Our accommodation ranges from a cosy cottage for two to more spacious
living for three, four, five or more. Combinations of cottages can
be used for families or groups of up to fifteen who wish to spend
time together in comfortable surroundings and nevertheless retain
a high standard of comfort and privacy.
| Each of our cottages
are light and airy with south facing stone terraces and wondeful
views down the Irfon Valley. Here you can sit and watch the
Red Kites, Buzzards and Hawks patrolling the skies. The cottages
are warm and well equipped and our prices include heating, lighting,
bed linen and towels. There is a separate utility and laundry
room with a tumble dryer and washing machines. There is also
a sauna available to guests on an hourly or sessional basis. |

Beyond the shrubs and flowers of the formal garden are acres of
ancient oak and other native trees. The garden is framed on one
side by the distant backdrop of the Irfon Valley and on the other
a network of small paths leads through the garden and up into the
woods. Some of the paths are cut into the rock itself and provide
spectacular views down the valley. An exciting place to explore
for both young and old. The woods are home to many birds and animals
including greater and Lesser Spotted Woodpecker, Owls, Nuthatches,
Siskins, squirrels and – if you are lucky a field mouse or
a badger.
Just below Cwm Irfon is the river Irfon after which it is named.
The use of the cottages includes discounted access to fishing in
the River Irfon. The River Irfon winds its way down the wooded valley
directly below your cottages cutting many large and small pools
into the slate rock. One of these, the 'Washpool' is only a few
hundred metres away and provides (on warm days!) a natural swimming
pool surrounded by mountains and forests.
Our nearest town is Llanwrtyd Wells, it is three miles down the
valley along the River Irfon. Here there are a diverse range of
facilities including restaurants, real pubs, an excellent Tourist
Information Centre and shops providing all of the basic necessities.
