All I can say is fabulous - a beautiful house in a stunning location . We travelled as a party of 10 and there was plenty of room for everyone. Lovely size bedrooms and so much kitchen & living space. Huge hot tub which was cleaned every day. We were greeted on arrival by Sarah who had also provided a beautiful welcome hamper. We had no need to conRead moretact Sarah & Andrew during our stay as there were not any problems. Highly recommend Angelrocks and will return again . Hide

Me and my friends came here for a yearly reunion and we loved it from start to finish! Perfect rural location with stunning views. Every little detail of the cottage was just perfect. We all had so much fun and will be recommending it to everyone. The owners were so friendly and helpful too and replied quick if we needed them! Would 100% return.

Dawn
We had a wonderful week, lovely to have the space to meet family. The property was beyond expectations, welcome basket was a real treat and much appreciated, beds were super comfortable
Beverley
Just got back from an amazing week at Angel Rocks farmhouse, this gorgeous farmhouse feels as though it's in the middle of nowhere but within a couple of miles you will find a pub and Builth Wells itself is only about 15 mins drive. The farmhouse has absolutely everything you need and the super kingsize beds are soooo comfortable! Sarah and Andrew are fantastic hosts and are available when you need them but you wouldn't even know they were a stones throw away. I can't wait to go back soon.
Lisa
A huge thank you to Sarah & Andrew for letting us stay in their stunning farmhouse. We could not fault it at all. The house was perfect very spacious clean and very comfortable beds. The view is breath taking. It was wonderful waking up to just birdsong and peace. The welcome hamper was a fantastic touch. We had the most relaxing enjoyable holiday ever.
Caroline
We had an absolutely amazing week, wonderful farmhouse with everything needed for the perfect family holiday. Ideal location for dog walks, family meals, games and a great hot tub. The view was our highlight.
Sue
Everything was absolutely amazing. The house had everything we could have needed and Dave was very helpful, with advice and keeping the hot tub clean and ready for use. Andrew and Sarah were the perfect hosts and we couldn't have wished for anything better. Would definitely recommend to others as Nd plan on returning in the near future.
Debra
A very well equipped, comfortable home surrounded by lush countryside. Everything worked as expected, very quiet so slept well on the comfy beds and relaxed in the enormous hot tub. A long way from any civilisation so the perfect spot to get away from it all if that is what you're after.
Sue
A beautiful house with spectacular views. Our second visit to Angelrocks which didn't disappoint. We have found delivery of online shopping essential - certainly to start off the holiday
Liz
Angel Rocks is a beautiful house, comfortable and well equipped in a stunning location. Wonderful views from the hot tub and plenty of room for bbq and for children to run around. Lots of places to walk from the house and plenty of birds, sheep cows and goats to see My family group of four generations stayed for a week and all enjoyed ourselves wit h activities including canoeing, waterfalls, Hergest Gardens, picnic and river swimming and the Hay book Festival.
Ellie
Angelrocks was perfect! We could not get over how perfect the location was, the views were amazing! We will deffo be returning!
Jodie
My friends and I had the most gorgeous stay. We couldn't quite believe the location and views, breathtaking! The house itself is perfect, clean, spacious and has everything you could possibly need! I couldn't fault anything
Katharine
Our family loves this place. It is so snug even in a howling gale, and the views across the valley to the hills are just wonderful, especially from the hot tub in a snowstorm! At Easter the fields are full of lambs and the banks with primroses. It is incredibly comfortable, and the owners Sarah and Andy are lovely.
Gillian
Amazing place to stay. Beautiful house and hosts were very helpful
Genevieve
This farmhouse was a dream to stay in. Comfortable and clean. All the amenities you would need. Very warm for our March stay, only really put the fire on for the cosy feels as underfloor heating kept it warm enough. Owners were very friendly and had no problem finding me and guiding me to the house when Apple app couldn't find it (use google maps i nstead), they also put the fire on ready for our arrival which was a great touch. Hot tub was great too! Views are breathtaking. Perfect for a retreat!
Jacquline
10out of 10 for everything. Sarah and Andrew were the ideal hosts even ferrying luggage bags and people to the cottage as it was cut off with the snow. Will definitely be booking again.
Amy
We had a lovely stay. A very warm and attentive welcome with a generous welcome basket and washing minis. The house was spotless with great range of cookware and glassware. The cleanest hot tub we've ever had and appreciated the daily cleans from the tub man! Underfloor heating was lovely, but do bring slippers/grippy socks for little ones. We real ly appreciated the owner putting up stair gates because they knew we had toddlers coming, and spotless high chairs and travel cot. Beautiful setting!
Sarah
Stunning house with stunning views. We came with family there was 10 of us in total, so much space, lovely big island and table for breakfast and dinner. Fire with logs was great in the evening. It was so relaxing to sit in the hot tub and enjoy the views. Would highly recommend this place and will be booking again. Thank you to Andrew and Sarah, w ho so helpful during our stay too.
Mandy
Beautiful big house for a family gathering! Every facility and equipment is covered and lovely touches like fresh flowers and a welcome basket including prosecco in the fridge! Lovely hosts and would recommend for a family get together.
Andrea
We loved our stay at AngelRocks with all our family together before Christmas. It was like being in the Alps with the snow settled on the hills and relaxing in the hot tub. Sarah & Andrew were both very accomodating. All the bedrooms were tastefully decorated and very comfortable beds. Beautiful kitchen with an island and all the comforts of home.

Angelrocks is a perfect house for a large family. 5 comfortable bedrooms and a lovely living space. The facilities are perfect and easy to use. It's well equiped with everything you need. The outdoor area is great for playing games and the walks around stunning. Hay on Wye is one of the loveliest little towns we've ever been to with cafs and book s hops galore with a lovely river walk and areas to take the dogs and kids for a paddle. A lovely relaxing peaceful week away.

FANTASTIC........
Katharine
Wonderful holiday rental for our extended family, we couldnt fault it. Lovely hosts, amazing views, beautiful walks from the back door, happy gatherings in the hot tub, lovely comfy beds, so quiet (except for the sheep during lambing!), lots of interesting places nearby - I could go on and on! The huge dining room was a very cosy place to watch the sleet and snow blow down the valley on our first day! We had 2 large food orders delivered to save unnecessary trips out to shop.
Elizabeth
Absolutely fabulous house and stunning location. Everything has been thought of by Sarah and Andrew, a truly comfortable stay. The walks directly from the cottage are breathtaking and the hot tub overlooking the hills was a wonderful experience, especially as it was lambing season. The night skies are fantastic, so many stars visible (something we dont get in London!). Worth noting that the nearest shops are about 25 minutes away so bring plenty of food! We will be back for sure. Thank you!
Peggy
Everything you need is provided! The food and wine welcoming gift was a lovely touch, as were the fresh flowers. The farmhouse is in a stunning location, the owners friendly and welcoming. Sitting in the hot tub and looking at the view was a real treat.
Rheanna
If I could give additional stars then I would! The property was perfect in every way and I honestly cant find one fault. The location was beautiful! Waking up to the lambs was also a special treat.
Karen
Lovely, modern farmhouse. Comfortable with plenty of room. Definitely had the WOW factor when you walked in. Views were stunning. Everything you needed was provided, fresh flowers and welcome basket. Could not ask for more.
