Elenydd Hill Cottages, Powys

Charming self-catering cottages, perfect for walking, fishing, cycling, or just escaping the hustle and bustle.

Tucked away on the east side of a beautiful, untouched valley in an area of outstanding natural beauty, surrounded by mountains, hills, lakes, and rivers. The cottages sit on twelve acres of land with woodland, a wildlife pond, meadow, peaceful gardens, and their own stream and dingle for guests to explore and enjoy.

Each cottage is completely private with plenty of parking. A small stream runs along the front of every cottage, with a cute little footbridge leading right to your door. There’s a path to the garden and barbecue area, plus a fully equipped laundry room and plenty of outdoor games to keep everyone entertained.

The site has a long history, originally listed as a “township” ages ago. It’s centred around a traditional 17th-century farmhouse and a bunch of farm buildings, some of which have been carefully converted into cosy holiday cottages.

The cottages aren’t suitable for wheelchair access.

Useful info:

• You can add an extra double ensuite room with green panelled walls in the gallery for £80 a night.

• There are also 7 pods onsite that sleep 14 more people, so if needed, the whole site can accommodate up to 35 guests.

• Each pod has a double bed, bedding, lights, heater, and sockets. Toilets and showers are a short walk away, plus there’s a dressing room with mirrors, clothes rails, hairdryers, tables and chairs. Just bring your own towel.

• There’s a shared kitchen area with tea, coffee, fridge, and microwave for pod guests to use.
