“We visited this cottage back in 2020 when my little girl was just 3 months old, we had the most loveliest of time.”

The cottage was just the right size for us, and everywhere was so lovely, clean and well kept. I then came back this year (2024) with a couple of friends as when we were deciding on where to go for our relaxing break away, I immediately thought of owl cottage. So we booked it again, and once again had the most fantastic time. It was near Christmas time and the cottage was decorated with Christmas decorations and a beautiful tree.

The cottage was just the right size for us, and everywhere was so lovely, clean and well kept. I then came back this year (2024) with a couple of friends as when we were deciding on where to go for our relaxing break away, I immediately thought of owl cottage. So we booked it again, and once again had the most fantastic time. It was near Christmas time and the cottage was decorated with Christmas decorations and a beautiful tree. The hot tub is a bonus too! Which Tracey does a fantastic job of keeping on top of treatment each day. We’ve actually decided to make it our yearly break away now, although in 2025 we hope to visit twice, and bring my little girl back 5 years on :)

“A lovely stay in Owl Cottage, which was perfect for what we needed.”

Tracy was welcoming and attentive, quickly sorting a minor issue we had with the WiFi. The photos do not do the cottage justice - the location is remote and quiet with stunning views, and although it is the mid-terrace property, the garden is private and not close to the neighbour's hot tub/social space. 10/10, would recommend!

“The cottage was very clean & well presented for our arrival.”

Kevin and Tracy are friendly & happy to share their knowledge of the best places to go. I loved the close proximity to walks with the most breathtaking views.

Thank you for your lovely comments, it was nice to meet you both. Take care, Tracey. Property Owner

“Spotless accommodation.”

Comfortable and relaxing. Excellent owner who had the time to chat. My second stay on this farm and I hope to return next year.

- Jan, April 2024

Thank you or your lovely comments, so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Looking forward to seeing you next year. Take care. Property Owner
Lynn April 2024

“Fantastic cottage, lovely location, helpful and welcoming owners.”

Only thing I would say is there were no additional bin bags in the property and no dishwasher tablets. We had bought our own tablets so it wasn't an issue, and would have asked if we needed some. Otherwise, a perfect short break and we loved watching the lambs playing in the fields. Thank you.

- Lynn, April 2024

Hi Lynn. Thank you for your lovely comments. I can only apologise that there were no spare bin bags and no dishwasher tablets. We do normally leave these in the cottage and have replenished both these items now. However, if you’d have asked I would have given these to you without hesitation. Tracey Property Owner

Everything was perfect!

Susan September 2023

“We had the best stay at the cottage and thoroughly enjoyed the very efficient hot tub which relaxed us at the end of the day.”

We felt very at home there and the accommodation clean and comfortable. The location was very convenient for touring but sadly we only stayed for 3 nights and missed a few key sights where we really wanted to go but hope to return again soon!

- Susan, September 2023
Alan July 2023

“The property was lovely.”

The hot tub was superb. The tv signal kept buffering/stalling but that could be down to the signal. Beds lovely and comfortable. We only booked last minute due to the weather forecast, so was super expensive. Still loved it.

- Alan, July 2023
Elizabeth October 2022

“Very comfortable, well-equipped, lovely cottage in a desirable location.”

Superb standard of cleanliness and beautifully decorated. Excellent communication from owners as appropriate, and good facilities locally. For us, the best feature was the wonderful, well-maintained hot tub. Stunning scenery to view whilst relaxing in the warm water. Owl Cottage is highly recommended, fabulous value for accommodation of such a high standard.

Louise August 2022

“This was the most beautiful place we have ever stayed.”

Our children have already asked multiple times for us to rebook before even getting back home. We visited the 4 waterfalls on the way which is a must. The accommodation was so clean and the owner so friendly. The peace

“Bit late to leave my review but we stayed here for a week in August with our daughters.”

Absolutely spotless cottage, amazing hot tub, lovely owners, Comfortable beds, comfy sofa - all mod cons!! our girls loved the goats and chickens too and we would 100% stay here again…in fact I think we will be booking next year!

- Hannah, August 2022
Danielle August 2022

“Perfect cottage to escape to the countryside.”

Amazing views in every direction and so peaceful. Beautiful interior and very well equipped, absolutely everything you could need is available. Obviously the hot tub is an added bonus but nice little surprise extra touches such as Welsh cakes, tea, coffee, sugar and milk plus washing machine and dishwasher supplies. Great location for easy access to local must sees such as Elan Valley!!

- Danielle, August 2022
Sarah April 2022

“Fabbbbbbulosss…!”

! We have thoroughly enjoyed our Easter Weekend at Owl Cottage the weather has been brilliant. Tracey & Kevin’s property is excellent, good quality furnishings, peaceful setting, relaxing hot tub, comfortable beds and only 10 mins drive into Llandrindod Wells. The location is central allowing easy access to explore many attractions in Mid Wales. We visited Aberystwyth, Gigrin Red Kite Feeding Centre, Devils Bridge to see the famous 3 bridges and waterfalls. There are also numerous walking paths directly from the front door of Owl Cottage, we are planning to return because we only managed to fit in one day of walking. Overall score 10/10

Olivia September 2021

“Beautiful and modern cottage - far exceeded what we were expecting.”

The garden with the hot tub in was fantastic and the views were amazing - we thoroughly enjoyed watching the sunset over the hills in the hot tub. Nearby facilities in the town were great and the it is within driving distance to the Elan dams which are a must see in the area. Overall we had a fantastic time and would recommend to anyone.

Darren September 2020

“Owl cottage was well equipped, comfortable and spotlessly clean.”

Garden area was perfect for our dog to run around, hot tub was fabulous we didn't leave the cottage for the 3 days we stayed.

- Darren, September 2020
David July 2020

“The cottage is excellent with superb views over the countryside and a lovely contained garden which kept our Norfolk Terrier from straying.”

Inside was immaculately clean and had all the utilities we needed and outside, as an added bonus, there is a hot tub which didn't feature in the original description as it is newly installed. Tracy & Kevin are really friendly and helpful hosts and made us feel very welcome. Within striking distance are country pubs with beer gardens and a variety of takeaways. As far as outings are concerned we really enjoyed a trip around the Elan Valley and its reservoirs and Aberystwyth which has always been a favourite. Missing the sheep, chickens, goats, Red Kites overhead and Bella the dog and will hopefully return soon. Would definitely recommend.

David September 2019

“What a brilliant place to stay all home comforts and so much more.”

Lovely welcome of welsh cakes which were lovely. Owl cottage was more than we expected ... everything we needed was catered for .. very clean and so very comfortable. The garden area was so peaceful to be in and the scenery was just amazing. The only negative is we didnt book long enough so now looking forward to booking next year in may. If you are looking for a break we couldnt recommend owl cottage high enough. David and Linda Hartwick

Christine August 2019

“Excellent accommodation, has everything in the cottage that you needed.”

Perhaps a coat rail/rack to hang wet coats (as was quite wet when we visited). This is no way detracted from the high standard of refurbishment of this cottage. A beautiful dog safe garden to the rear, where garden furniture provided in order to enjoy the beautiful scenery around. All in all a wonderful place to visit. Tracey the owner was helpful but unobtrusive. Will certainly be booking again.

- Christine, August 2019
Janet July 2019

“The owners Kevin and Tracy were very helpful without being intrusive.”

The accommodation was spotless and the beds were most comfortable. We had a lovely 4 day break with our little dog Molly. This cottage met our expectations well done to the owners. The views and sheep were an added bonus as it was on a working farm.

About the location

LLANDRINDOD WELLS

Builth Wells 7.6 miles; Hereford 41.3 miles

Llandrindod Wells is a lighthearted, friendly town situated in the county of Powys, within the historic boundaries of Radnorshire, Wales. There are some notable landmarks within the town, including architectural buildings in ornate styles dating from the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Llandrindod Wells Victorian Festival, known locally as 'Victorian Week', takes place at the end of August, bringing many tourists to the lively town. Some people like to go-all-out and look the part in Victorian, Edwardian or other antique costumes, and many of the high-street shops dress their windows, in spirit of the event. There is a wide range of entertainment available in the town each year; hosted at The Albert Hall Theatre, Pavilion Mid Wales, which brings Live Music, Comedy and Theatre and Radnor Fringe Festival which is held within the Rock Park. The lake in Llandrindod Wells is part of the town's Victorian history and still remains a popular attraction today, it is a lovely location to bring a picnic with the family. For all you bowling enthusiasts there is The Radnor Indoor Bowls Centre along with the Outdoor Bowling Club for an afternoon of local sports. If you fancy exploring some of the history around the town there is The Radnorshire Museum, The Rock Park & Heritage Centre and The National Cycle Museum, all for your discovery. The Thomas Jones Statue on Temple Gardens is also worth a visit as you stroll across the gardens. The town is situated in a very rural spot so there are lots of scenic walking opportunities; Beacon Hill is a nice 4 mile long trail whilst The Spa Walk offers gentle slopes and opportunity to try the waters at the Chalybeate Spring in Rock Park.
