We are dog-friendly, with a fully enclosed garden and a private field beside the cottage available for dog walking.

Our wildlife cameras regularly capture badgers and bats, while Red Kites and Buzzards soar overhead. In winter, birds flock to the feeders, and along the River Ithon you may spot Kingfishers, Dippers, and even Otters.
Just 30 minutes away lies the Elan Valley — a breathtaking area of natural beauty, home to over 80 miles of scenic trails and an International Dark Sky Park, perfect for stargazing.
