Ceri
My family and I stayed here for a week, the ages ranged from 19 months to 74 years. The house was beautiful and the scenery breath taking. The added touches left by Angela and Huw were a lovely touch, top marks for the Victoria Sponge. We'll definitely be back.

Collette
A group of us stayed here for 40th birthday celebrations and the property had everything we needed to make it an enjoyable and comfortable stay. The welcome gifts were so thoughtful, the bread and cake were both delicious ! The hot tub was a perfect temperature and the surrounding mountains and views were beautiful. The kitchen area was spotless an d was well equipped. The livingroom sofa and chairs were so comfortable and the smart TV was perfect. Would recommend this property.
Jade
A stunning place! We came for a 30th birthday party and it did not disappoint! The pictures do not do it justice. It had everything you needed if not more, it accommodated 13 men and women very comfortably, beautiful views of the 60acres. We will definitely be coming back in the near future! Gorgeous!
David
13 of us, ranging in age from 4 to 78 had a lovely week in this house, with plenty of warm accommodation and equipment for all. Lovely food package on arrival - including Victoria sponge cake. Hot tub! Prominent position with woods, fields and sheep all around. Plenty to do nearby (well nowhere is really near, it's a pretty remote area, but that's in its favour) - Zip wire, kite feeding station, Welsh national botanic gardens, Llyn Brianne dam, long walk in Brecon Beacons for the fit ones.
Robert
We absolutely loved your cottage, the views, the hot tub, the layout and space, just perfect. We had the most fantastic time. It was perfect in every way for our family of 6 adults and 4 children and we would certainly book again.
Bryan
Had a wonderful stay: the property was perfect for our family group. The accessible downstairs suite was perfect for my elderly parents. The five upstairs bedrooms accommodated the rest of the family comfortably. Large kitchen and living room. Being remote there's lots of stars to see at night but we couldn't get a mobile signal on some networks. T he wi-fi was ok and some phones could handle wi-fi calling. Llandovery is only 5 miles away and has an ok range of shops, restaurants and pubs.
G
Located on a working farm so a little bit off the beaten track but well worth it being surrounded by beautiful countryside and wonderful views. The cottage is stocked with practically everything required for a comfortable and enjoyable stay,we all particularly loved the hot tub.
Elspeth
Rhydins Fawr is absolutely perfect. From the warm welcome to the warm waters of the hot tub everything was exactly as you'd wish for. The pictures don't do this property justice, and you have to see the views for them to be believed. Enjoying a glass of prosecco looking over the fields and hills whilst easing aching muscles in the hot tub is not to be missed. You can walk/bike straight from the house.
Nigel
Fantastic location and well planned barn conversion. The description was very accurate. Open plan layout for kitchen, dining area and lounge worked really well. Excellent views from property. Peaceful and quiet location. Great for family and pets. The property delivered on the promise and with addition of a Hot Tub over delivered. Very well equippe d which made catering a breeze. Ample parking for 4 cars and an enclosed garden which was great for two dogs.
Michelle
We had a wonderful stay at Rhydnis Fawr, could not fault anything, from cleanliness to comfy beds amazing kitchen facilities and equipment, there was nothing we didn't have and the thoughtful welcome pack and home made cake was a lovely surprise. This accommodation is perfect for large family gatherings due to the large open plan kitchen diner whic h flows into a lovely lounge area, definitely ticked all the boxes for our needs. Thank you and would definitely recommend.
Simon
A beautiful cottage in the middle of the welsh countryside. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and the owner was very welcoming and responsive to any questions.
David
Had a great Christmas. Owners very helpfull.
Catherine
Really lovely stay in the cottage, very well equipped and everything you need. Beds were super comfy and the decor was beautiful. We were a family of 12 and the open plan lounge was perfect. The views were to die for and the complimentary items were very much appreciated especially the huge Victoria sponge We would definitely return one day.
