This is a remarkable experience if your staying with us mid week this summer. I highly reccomend it 😍

Cabin number 3, Pen-Rhiw, officially open for business.

When ioan mentioned over new year 21/22 he had a bit of spare time coming up and thought he could put another cabin up, my honest answer was "if you want to that's fine, but your on your own."
Honestly at that point I didn't have the physical or mental strength to tackle another build.
So to be fair to the lad that's exactly what he did.
Apart from ordering a few of the materials for him, ive literally done nothing on it till February this year, and like all good projects we passed our deadline of Easter 😂😂
And it's finally done, finished, and I can breath again.

We are hoping lots of people will get to enjoy our site over this summer. As I'm frantically trying to finish up getting pen-rhiw to market.

If you would like to come snd stay please feel free to drop into my inbox.

For all your weekend coffee and cake needs 😍🤤

We’ve done it.. after months of saving, and hard work, we’ve got ourselves a brand new, state of the art coffee machine 🎉🎉🎉🎉

After looking at lots of different options, we’ve decided to go with Fab Four Coffee! A rich and creamy blend of only the best Welsh coffee.
You might know the guys behind the brand too, Wales and British Lions stars, Mike Phillips, James Hook, Shane Williams and Lee Byrne 🏉

For this bank holiday weekend, we’ve got an introductory offer of £2.50 for all coffee so come in and give it a try! A couple of customers are on their second cups already.. mentioning no names 👀😉

Today we took ourselves on the dragons back walk up at Llyn Clywedog above Llanidloes.
The wind was sharp but the views were amazing. Took us a very leisurely 1hr 30 with the children.
The dam was flowing over too giving us extra excitement 😍😍
Just 10mins from Birch Banc.

Starting point either the 2nd cattle grid past Caffi Clywedog.

Or another quarter of a mile on by Ty-Capel B&B

So despite the sadness in the UK today, we had a busy day between check out and check in. Operation cut the wild flower meadow is well under way.
This is a big job once a year, and now to hope we have as many daisies return next year and 🤞 for the return of cornflowers.
Never fear the BBC news has been on throughout todays cleans 🖤

This looks like a lush few hours.
A perfect day for me would be swim and cream tea Glansevern Hall Gardens followed by a walk down the canal path just across the road and ending up with a meal in one of the lovely restaurants in this area.
A 40 minute drive from your cabin.

Today we took the Mr out for the day.
Corrris Craft centre 40 min drive, where we went underground in the King Arthurs Labrynth. Followed by a chippy lunch at Henningans Machynlleth (the best fish and chips around IMO) and rounded the afternoon off with a lush ice cream (and really cheap at that).
