“Absolute stunning view, and cottage very clean especially the hot tub that would fit 6 comfortably.”

Lots of flies but a working farm and fly trapper provided, fridge and oven door needs to be fixed. A guest book would be great for recommendations etc The owner is lovely nothing too much trouble. Would be great to have additional towels ( would definitely pay extra for these too could be an option) for the hot tub and mop so can keep floors dry. Logs provided for the lovely log burner which was a great touch, kept us, warm and cosy. Had to take showers/ baths at different times as not enough ...

Logs provided for the lovely log burner which was a great touch, kept us, warm and cosy. Had to take showers/ baths at different times as not enough hot water for the 5 of us at once. However a fabulous peaceful stay would definitely recommend.

“Mrs Tilsley could not have been any nicer or helpful,helped out a few times when we for instance ran out of sugar .”

The views from the cottage were stunning The property is part of a working farm with sheep and cattle which didnt bother us as we are from a rural village ,one of our party even is a farmer himself but may influence others .

Karen April 2024

“Such an amazing little place on a working farm.”

We have now stayed here once or twice a year for the last 5 years. I actually don’t want to give a glowing review because I would like to keep it all to myself. Fantastic cottage with the most amazing views along with all the home comforts and a lovely hot tub to sit out and soak up all up. Beautifully clean and comfortable with lots of little lovely touches. It is on a working farm which we enjoy all the animals and walks in the countryside. Can’t recommend it enough .

- Karen, April 2024
Juliet April 2024

“We had a wonderful stay, the cottage was the perfect place for our family of 5 to meet up and have a relaxing few days, everything was perfect.”

A wonderful personal greeting from the owner who talked us through everything from the recycling, woodburner, use of hot tub and central heating. A beautiful location, comfortable cottage with everything we needed for a great stay. The hot tub was a massive bonus and we used it often. Thank yuo for a super stay, we shall return!

Andrew February 2024

“What an amazing find!”

Thank you so much to the owners for a lovely week, the listing doesn't do the place justice, it's just a little bit of a hidden gem, so quietcas it is set well back and above the road! Great location... Highly recommend!

Ciaran January 2024

“The cottage was absolutely lovely.”

Very clean and tidy. On arrival. The hot tub was a lovely touch to the property as the view is splendid day and night. Overall, if you’re looking for a nice peaceful few days away, this is a lovely property and has everything you need to make you feel at home. I do have to mention one thing and that is the photos which are displayed is showing the property on the website does not do justice as the property is furnished lovely.

James June 2023

“Waggoners Cottage was lovely just as per the web site, the owner Jennifer met us upon arrival, and showed us around the cottage.”

The cottage was spotlessly clean and well maintained. Absolutely stunning views from the patio, we had daily visits from Jennifer the check the Hot Tube and have a chat about the farm activities.

- James, June 2023
David May 2023

“We were greeted by Ivy/Vera and she was friendly and gave us a thorough tour of the cottage and showed us how to use the hot tub etc.”

There appeared to be lots of rules around the hot tub, including only using it for half an hour at a time. We were asked to sign a contract agreeing to this also prior to using the hot tub . The positives are as follows: Fantastic views and the cottage is well located centrally to access most of Wales easily. Lots of wildlife - birds etc in the garden (as well as the sound of sheep and cows which added to the experience). Bed was comfortable. Cottage was well furnished - TV, kitchen and utensils, washing machine etc Negatives: The driveway was hazardous for us as it was all gravel (not good for motorbikes as we all nearly came off on several occasions - sliding about on it). As mentioned above - the hot tub and the rules. The shower was quite dated and not powerful although did the job. The upstairs bathroom had no lock on it. This is a simple job and I would have expected it to have been done to avoid any embarrassment when someone is using the bathroom - and someone else walks in accidentally. The owners had some farm dogs (Collies) and although they were very friendly, we noticed that they used our garden as a toilet (and on one occasion we almost stepped in some poo)!

- David, May 2023
Julie May 2023

“The host was very friendly and welcoming, the cottage was lovely and had everything that we needed for our stay with amazing views.”

Exceptionally clean and seemed like entering home, very comfortable. The views were stunning and quite surprised us how love these were. Hot-tub fantastic and although unfortunately we were not there long we had a fabulous time. Would definately book again. Beautiful.

“I have visited this cottage several times over the years.”

I have always been impressed how clean and tidy it is and how good the facilities are. The views from the cottage are outstanding and to sit in the hot tub looking out over the hills is great. The owner is very helful and friendly and checks regularly to make sure all is OK. Finally the area us very good for walking ,Shopping and visiting historic places of interest.

Linda September 2022

“The welcome pack was minimal and no milk, no cleaning clothes to use, we had to buy some.”

The log fire smoked so much we had to open all the windows and doors, needless to say we did not use again. The location was beautiful though and serenely peaceful, sheep and cows and lovely bird life. The hot tub was well looked after and it was lovely to sit back and enjoy the views of Wales.

- Linda, September 2022
Manjit July 2022

“Amazing views,no noise to be heard peaceful relaxing great hot tub,lovely owners, kids enjoyed playing with the owners dogs,very secluded just what we wanted,clean cottage a few flies about but only opened windows in the morning and evening and had fan on during the day so only a few flies but it is a working farm so to be expected, powis castle and gardens was a lovely day out.”

- Manjit, July 2022
Shaun July 2022

“We arrived at around 6pm Monday night and were greeted by the owner who seemed great.”

We spoke and she almost immediately mentioned about flies and said to keep the windows closed. We understood that there might be a couple of flies as it was by a field, but we were a bit concerned about leaving the windows closed on the hottest day on record. Anyway we left the windows closed and had fans blowing hot air all night so we all sweated buckets and hardly slept. The next morning we went down stairs to a mass of flies. Anytime you opened the doors the flies would creep in. We told the owner who tried to hoover them up, but she ultimately blamed it on the weather, which we thought was untrue as there was fly buckets around the property, fly zappers, fly strips and also fly spray that she told us to spray around the property even though we had small children (we didn't want them breathing in the fumes)We were told to open all the windows and put the fans on downstairs to get rid of the flies, this inturn caused more flies to come in, they were evetywhere, in the cupboards in the fridge and on any crumbs of food that were left behind. We decided to leave after the first night as we just couldn't relax. There is clearly a fly issue in the property, if we would of know before we would not of booked. If you have to have fly zappers, fly strips, fly sprays ect in a property then there is a fly issue in there. We received a 1/3 of our money back which she thought was fair, how can that be fair when we have lost money and a holiday due to no fault of our own. We have 4 small children and can't afford to book another holiday. The owner is unfair and clearly only cares about the payment you make. This place is FLY INFESTED. Also had to pick up dog poo that had been there a while as it was white.

- Shaun, July 2022

I am sorry that you were unhappy with your accommodation. When you received the keys to the accommodation, the property was 100% clean and fly free. It is your responsibility to manage and maintain the property during your stay. As you mentioned, in your review, you arrived on the hottest day on record for this country. I can only advise you on how to keep the property cool and fly free. I gave you a generous 'good will gesture' against the advice of the booking company. Although we are unable to totally prevent flies, we are here to advise and support our guests and supply preventative measures, if required. We pride ourselves in making sure all our guests have an enjoyable stay. Property Owner
Evelyn July 2022

“Beautiful cottage situated in some of the most beautiful countryside.”

..none of the pictures can do it justice! . Had everything you could need in the cottage and the hot tub was lush!. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming..cannot recommend highly enough

- Evelyn, July 2022
Hazel June 2022

“This was a second visit for us after staying in 2021.”

The cottage has spectacular views and is set in a calm and peaceful location but is in easy reach of Newtown and Welshpool with the coast being around an hours car journey away.The only noises likely to be heard are the baaing of the sheep and the mooing of the cows along with birdsong..This is so lovely to listen to. Sunsets and sunrises are beautiful. The cottage was spotlessly clean and has benefitted from new comfortable lounge furniture and a new dining table. Their is a dishwasher and a washing machine although it may benefit from a dryer which would be useful if weather is inclement and the outside line is not able to be used. There is however a drying rack provided and clothes will dry on this in the lobby . The cottage is equipped with plenty of utensils, cups and even plastic glasses if needed whilst sitting outside . Hand and bath towels are provided and there was liquid hand soap in both bathrooms.The hot tub is an added benefit with lovely views to be seen whilst relaxing in it. The owner , Jen is extremely helpful and friendly with nothing being too much trouble. The lettuce and radishes she gave us from her garden were delicious . We also met her husband and daughter who were also very friendly .We benefited this week by having lovely weather and we were able to sit in the garden enjoying the scenery frequently. We will definitely be returning again and are so pleased we found this gem of a holiday cottage. We would highly recommend.

Adam April 2022

“Absolutely fantastic cottage, incredible location especially if you have little ones for walks etc.”

Views are sensational from the cottage looking over the beautiful hills of wales (and also from the hot tub which was also amazing) The owner lives just across the way from the cottage but gave us full privacy and mrs Tilsley was absolutely lovely. We will definitely be returning. Simple sensational ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hannah February 2022

“The most beautiful views, perfect location for a relaxing getaway.”

We had everything we needed and felt like home almost straight away. Mrs Tisley was the most perfect host and made us feel so welcome and we didn’t want to leave. Such a lovely place to stay and will home to return! Recommend the canal walk to the Nags Head for Sunday roast dinner.

- Hannah, February 2022
Sally February 2022

“We had a lovely weekend away, the Cottage is well equipped and comfortable.”

It is very clean and mostly modern, the bathroom and shower room are tired and and there was only small towels (not bath towels) to use. We had everything to make a fire left for us on the first night but no matches or fire lighters to light it. We enjoyed it the next day when we bought some. The fridge wasn't turned on which took us a while to realise. No big deal but our food wasn't straight into a cold fridge. Aside of those little things, the hot tub and the views were fantastic, there are walks straight from the door on the farmland ( we didnt get to go as it was the weekend Eunice and Franklin arrived which made it very windy and wet) but we didn't go for the weather and the cottage gave us an enjoyable family weekend away. The Nags head 1 mile away provided us with a fantastic lunch too. Thank you

Lauren January 2022

“I came here with 3 of my friends to celebrate my 30th birthday and could not recommend this location enough!”

! The owner Mrs Tilsley is very welcoming and a lovely lady who made sure everything was perfect for us. The kitchen it fully equipped with all you need, even down to baking equipment!!

Asif September 2021

“The cottage and hot tub were both clean and the host was close by so if any issues arose we were able to speak with her immediately, for example we had a small issue with wasps in the upstairs bathroom that got sorted within a day of two of our stay.”

The cottage had ample kitchen supplies and bedding. The farm itself offers great views and walks and is located close to local tourist sights such as Powis castle. It is a nice place for a getaway.

- Asif, September 2021
Jane September 2021

“Had a fabulous stay.”

The owners were really lovely. Our cottsge was absolutely fantastic, with stunning views. We had amazing views and with the hot tub too, it was quite perfect. Only thing that let it down for us, due to the hot weather, there was quite a few wasps and flies that got in the cottage, which was annoying. The owners tried to get rid of them, but that was a temporary measure until the cottage was empty for 24 hours . Other than that a perfect place to stay. Thankyou for an awesome holiday Mr & Mrs Tilley xx

- Jane, September 2021
Rachel August 2021

“Just returned from an amazing weeks stay at Waggoners Cottage.”

The host Mrs Tilsey was lovely,gave us lots of information about the local area.The cottage was spotless and had the most amazing views with the added bonus of a hot tub which was checked everyday by the owners.If your looking for a beautiful cottage in the hills of the Welsh countryside with cows as your neighbours and and hot tub with a view then this is the place for you ,can not recommend it enough.

- Rachel, August 2021
Maria July 2021

“This amazing Holiday started off with easy to follow directions and a warm welcome from the lovely host Mrs Tilsley on arrival.”

The cottage was perfect, exactly as described! Every comfort catered for. Fabulous well arranged kitchen, all the gadgets you could need were there. Externally the views of the countryside and the farm took our breath away. We 100% enjoyed a fortnight of comfort and perfect peace. The private hot tub was checked daily by Mrs Tillsley which we found most reassuring. We loved watching and learning from our friendly hosts about farming, their animals and the wildlife. We will absolutely stay here again, one of the best Cottages’s by far for a warm welcome, excellent standard of facilities, stunning location and absolutely loads of places to visit as well as a great restaurant close by. Sunday lunch at the Nags head was delicious! This holiday was exactly what we had hoped for and so much more, we were truly sorry to leave.

- Maria, July 2021
Hazel July 2021

Fiona November 2020

“The scenery and the silence was outstanding.”

Saw the milky way whilst soaking in the hot tub such clear skies. Awoke to pheasants in the garden and young cows in the field next to the cottage, beautiful. Mrs Tilsley was a lovely lady and couldn't have made us feel more welcome. The cottage was immaculate and everything there that you could possibly ever need. Simply put... Perfection.

- Fiona, November 2020
Faye October 2020

Viktoria September 2020

“The view...”

. Wow.... Day after day I was transfixed with this view, I want to live here. The cottage is great and the master bed is very comfy. The hot tub is superb and has that view. The farm is lovely and is about a mile from the road, so it is very quiet. The owner is truly lovely and their farm dogs are a delight. The cottage is situated between 2 towns which both have large chain supermarkets and there is a National Trust house minutes away. We had been due to go to spain for our break but 2020 happened so we booked here. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful, chilled out place, we were not disappointed.

- Viktoria, September 2020
Richard September 2020

“Everything was as described.”

The owner(Jen) was there to meet us and explain everything including the procedures they had put in place in respect of COVID. The property is lovely and ideal to use as a base for exploring this beautiful part of the country. The cottage has everything you could wish for and was perfect for us. Thanks to all concerned.

- Richard, September 2020
Caroline September 2020

“First time to Wales but won't be the last.”

“My friends and I just came home from a fabulous weekend celebrating a 30th birthday.”

It was a last minute booking due to a late cancellation with another company but everything was smooth and stress free. The facilities were perfect for a cosy weekend in, the views were fabulous and the family who run the cottage are super friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend for a weekend away

- Nicola, November 2019

The views were incredible! It was lovely and cosy ! And lovely pubs within short distance! Hosts were lovely and accommodating!

- Rebecca, November 2019
Ruth October 2019

“A couple of things need mentioning: on arrival in dark the signage is wrong as still have on a property they no longer own so you don’t actually know where their property is as no instructions given on email etc .”

Freezer not turned on when we arrived so couldn’t use it straightaway and hoped that it would reach correct temp overnight in order to put our groceries in next morning after food shop. Instructions say should be put on 24hrs before use.Hot tub didn’t maintain heat it should have. In children’s garden/play area on property several areas with dog poo from their dog. No visitors book with comments in or to write own. Though the property was clean , comfortable etc lovely location, there was something lacking from owners , when we mentioned some of the above they were quite dismissive “ oh we don’t put freezer on as some guests don’t use it, when you take lid off hot tub obviously the temperature will go down(we’ve never had this problem before), signage on old property:” oh yes we’ve been meaning to put an arrow to tell you carry straight on ,a few people have said same but we’ve just not got round to it” we felt there was no point mentioning the dog poo!

- Ruth, October 2019
Nicola October 2019

“The location of the cottage was outstanding with some of the nicest views.”

The owners were very hospitable and friendly, checkjng ro make sure that everything was ok with our stay. The cottage itself was small but ideal for what we needed and had all the amenities that we required.

- Nicola, October 2019
Carol September 2019

“Just to say there is also a games room with pool table, table football and ...”

Just to say there is also a games room with pool table, table football and table tennis free to use, the cottage is fantastic and so quiet but has the convenience of welshpool town only 15 mins drive to morrisons all in all a great place to stay with brilliant local pubs I will definitely be going back again''

- Carol, September 2019
Danielle June 2019

- Danielle, June 2019
Richard May 2019

“Can’t thank Mrs Tilsley enough, she was a lovely host and gave us some beautiful blue fresh eggs, which were so tasty.”

Photographs don’t do this property justice! Lovely atmosphere being on a farm with lambs outside our window in the morning. Lovely and relaxing in the hot tub with the views. Lovely little games shed and a little playground for the children. The only comment that I would make is as it is a working farm ask for fly spray as a lot of flies get in the property! I would love to stay here again!

- Richard, May 2019
Rebecca May 2019

“The pictures and the description of this cottage don't do it justice!”

My partner and I had a fantastic week here, the hosts were brilliant and so lovely and definitely went out of their way to make sure we had a great stay. The only thing I had an issue with was the hardness of the pillows and because I suffer from chronic pain it caused me an issue but it was easily resolved. The weather while we were here topped off an absolutely amazing holiday. We would definitely stay here again in a heart beat.

- Rebecca, May 2019

The property

Waggoners Cottage is nestled in the county of Powys in Mid-Wales.

It’s situated on the outskirts of the charming Hamlet of Garthmyl which overlooks luscious countryside, containing the working farm upon which the cottage is located.

Perfect for couples and families alike, this cottage offers comfortable accommodation for up to five guests and ideally sits within close proximity of the area’s most wonderful attractions.

After an enticing day of exploring the gorgeous countryside and fascinating towns, take time to relax with your loved ones together in the open-plan living area, enjoying the TV or simply a chat around the charming woodburner.

Additionally, this space offers a homely dining area alongside a well-equipped and traditional oak kitchen.

The ground floor also plays host to a pleasant shower room and functional utility. On the first floor the three bedrooms rest: a double, a twin and a single, which are all decorated with peace and comfort in mind, allowing you to maximise your stay.

All the rooms are exemplified through sharing a splendid family bathroom which completes the accommodation warmly.

Undoubtedly, the cottage’s finest asset is the exquisite hot tub, which along with the luxury it brings to the property, candidly provides incredibly breathtaking views of the stunning Severn Valley, exemplifying the natural beauty of the area.

The Hamlet of Garthmyl plays host to The Nags Head Hotel and Restaurant, a Golf Course and is a passing point for the Montgomery Canal (part of the Severn Way Walk), which leads to the unbelievably picturesque Black and White village of Berriew.

This enchanting village is home to the Andrew Logan Museum, various pubs and restaurants; sports field and play area for the children, a handful of local shops and a tea room.

Are you craving outdoor experiences?

These are plentiful with easy access to cycling trails and clay pigeon shooting, even inexhaustible walking opportunities, either undulating down the canal waterways or visiting the easily reachable Shropshire Hills which, as an area of outstanding natural beauty, entertain gorgeous rural views.

A well-presented cottage, encompassing all elements of an exceptional stay in Mid-Wales.
