About Sycamore Lodge

This wonderful detached lodge is situated in a peaceful location, privately landscaped, next to another self-catering lodge, on the edge of the ownersÂ’ working livestock farm, just four miles from the delightful and welcoming market town of Rhayader in Mid Wales. Built by the owners and boasting a Green Tourism Gold Award, this Rhayader cottage offers a range of luxuries including its own private 6-seater hot tub with fabulous countryside views, perfect for a family holiday.

The under floor heating and wonderful glass frontage means the lodge is warm and cosy, while the eco-friendly Air-to-Air Conditioning unit cools the lodge in summer months. All set on the ground floor and with ramped access to the side, this superb cottage near Rhayader offers three comfortable bedrooms and a family bathroom with a range of luxurious toiletries, and there's a second separate basin and WC located in the lobby.

The spacious open plan living area is home to a very well-equipped kitchen, a large dining table and sumptuous leather sofas, where you can sit back and relax after a day spent exploring the local area. Step outside onto the deck and luxuriate in the bubbling hot tub, where you can spot all manner of wildlife in the surrounding fields and in the evening enjoy a stargazing experience with the area's International Dark Skies states; you will hopefully see planets and shooting stars.

The fully enclosed garden at this Mid Wales lodge features a lawned area with outdoor furniture and sun loungers, whilst to the side of the cottage is a small patio with birdfeeders, where you can watch a wide variety of birds from the kitchen window, and there's a locakable shed for storing bikes. A superb area for walkers, the owners of this Mid Wales lodge have created their own nature farm trails, where guests can tour through the fields with a map and leaflet to explore the natural landscape, wildlife and heritage sites and interest.

Sycamore Lodge Reviews

Perfect. Kerena greeted us on arrival and checked the hot tub every morning and filled the bird feeding station outside the kitchen window. Perfect if you are a keen walker and enjoy the countryside. Quite out in the sticks so did a lot of driving. But would highly recommend for a completely relaxing break.
Wonderfull cottagelodge. Meticulously clean and maintained. I am a hot tub skeptic, but the attention to cleanliness and maintenance by the hosts convinced me to use it. The hosts were exceptionally helpful and friendly, will definitely look to visit again. Air conditioning was a welcome bonus during the very hit weather we enjoyed
George
Without a doubt the finest accommodation we have ever stayed in and we have been taking holidays in this country 23 times a year for the last 25 years, not a wrong thing to say all immaculate, well equipped and spotlessly clean with a wonderful friendly owner with great knowledge of the area. Five star top quality. Regards George
Patrick
Owner very friendly and greeted us on arrival. Lodge perfect, had all that you could want for a great holiday. Location remote but that is what our family enjoyed! Peace and quiet and plenty of country side.
Samantha
Wonderful base for exploring this beautiful area. We had so many adventures and coming home to the hot tub was perfect. The hosts were amazing and bringing Patch to show the children was so thoughtful. We loved it so much we have already booked it again for next year. 5
Katherine
1010 for this property. Stunning views, beautifully placed hot tub to allow you to watch the sun go down. If you're looking for a secluded getaway then this place is perfect. Very friendly owners who were kind enough to leave a bottle of wine and some Welsh cakes for us. Will definitely return again
Paramveer

It was the most perfect break in a beautiful lodge. Everything was thought of, everything. We couldn't have asked for more. It was so clean and comfortable, warm and well equipped. The views from the hot tub were incredible. So calming and tranquil with lovely lovely hosts. Highly recommend and definitely going back!
Christopher
The lodge was packed with everything you would need for your visit and more, they had literally thought of everything! Like home from home. Very clean, lovely and warm... Magnificent views and spectacular starry nights. And if you love wildlife you'll be in for a treat. Well worth a visit to either relax or get out and explore the lovely country walks.

Beautiful country setting, very private, very clean, has everything you require and more. Very welcoming. Relaxing base to explore the stunning surrounding area.
Matthew
Host was really kind and accommodating and venue was in an amazing location
Claire
Sycamore Lodge was perfect, we couldnt fault it. It met all our expectations and exceeded them. There wasnt anything the owner hadnt thought of. There were lovely extra touches, for example wine and milk in the fridge, coffee and tea and welsh cakes on arrival. The lodge was ideally located for a tranquil holiday and fabulous views from the hot tub.
We have had a simply wonderful holiday and would recommend the lodge we stayed in to anyone and everyone. Not just the lodge, but the natural beauty of the surrounding area as well is an absolute hidden gem which we loved exploring. The only thing that needs a mention is that the supposedly unlimited wifi internet access is in fact NOT unlimited with our holiday occurring at the end of the month we were the ones who were left without internet because of the monthly data allowance having been used up by previous occupants. Bear this in mind when like me you were planning on doing a little bit of remote work, or simply wish to keep up with private emails etc.
Lovely cottage with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We would highly recommend this cottage we enjoyed our stay very much. Lots to see and do in the area. Kerena and Stephen were very welcoming and helpful. The welcome basket was much appreciated. We would love to return again one day.
Maddie
Absolutely beautiful place to stay. The whole lodge was very clean and had every amenity we could possibly need and more! Very spacious lodge and beds were very comfortable. Lovely large, clean hot tub too, so we could really enjoy the starlit evenings! Our host was wonderful and really helpful. She helped us find the beautiful places around the area to explore. We would 100 stay again and hope to rebook in the future!
Immaculate lodge that was filled with everything you need for a great relaxing weekend away.
Had a great time and definatly going back again
Geraldine
The owners have paid attention to every details relating to what you might need whilst there. It is extremely well appointed, in a beautiful location and spotlessly clean.
Lovely lodge, couldn't have asked for anything more! Hot tub was a dream after our long walks in the Elan Valley. Will hopefully be booking again in the future.
Catherine
Amazing place and owners very welcoming. Lots of wildlife and lovely nature trails right from the doorstep.
Warren
