Our garden is truly living up to its name…WILD! While it’s not exactly how we envisioned, it’s still a thriving utopia for all the small creatures. 🐝🌿We’ve heard that others have faced similar challenges. Can anyone share their experiences or offer some useful tips for us to take into next year? 🌸🌼

BUNNERS 🛠️🪻🐦⬛Catching Carol for a chat can be tricky, but when we asked her to talk about our new addition at Plas Robin, she enthusiastically replied, "I’d love to!"💚 We often rave about Montgomery, and with good reason. It’s home to some fantastic shops, and Bunners is a standout. Founded over 100 years ago, Bunners is filled with everything you could imagine for your home, all while exuding a rich history at every turn. 😊 Check out our new bird feeder from Bunners! To our upcoming guests, see if you can spot it during your stay 👀.

We managed to catch a few moments on camera that we're excited to share with you!🌸🌺🌻 And as the wild garden starts to awaken, we'd love to see your snapshots.

Time flies! It feels like just yesterday we took the leap to transform our well kept lawn into a fully grown wild garden. 🌿🌼
We're now just weeks away from seeing our wild garden bloom for its second year, and David is already sourcing even more wild garden seeds to enhance its beauty. Stay tuned as we make it EVEN BETTER this season! 🌸🌺🌻🌼

The Royal Welsh Show 2023🏴
Last week we managed to put a halt on our hiatus to go to the Royal Welsh Show and venture over to Builth Wells for the day!
It was incredible to see how the show has developed over the years and at the same time stayed the same. 💚
We were able to spend the day taking a look at some of Wales’s very best produce which has led to some subtle but exciting changes to our hampers here at Plas Robin. 🧺
Besides looking at Wales excel at the mounted horse games, David managed to slip away for an hour to see some of the machinery. 🚜
All in all, what a lovely day and we would thoroughly recommend anyone to go there. The show is on annually in the sunny (usually) month of July 🌞
Meet our newest family members at Plas Robin! 🦙🦙🦙
Please give the warmest welcome (or ‘croeso’) to Tammie, Karina and Medi, our three beautiful alpacas 🤎
Our fluffy little additions will now be the first faces you’ll see when arriving at Plas Robin Rural Retreats so make sure you come to say hello! 👋🏼
Before making their way to their new home in Llandyssil, Tammie and Karina grew up at the home of Laura Ashley which has recently been converted into the inspiring The Dreaming Retreat by Charlotte Church! 🏡
EXCITING NEWS!
After admiring their products for some time, we have recently developed a partnership with the team at Cardi Candle Co. and can proudly show you all our new bespoke reed diffusers in all of our lodges.
We grabbed Carol for a quick natter on her thoughts on their lovely new products, including our current favourite Wild Raspberry and Pink Peppercorns 💓
We’ve got a few extra at home so if you fancy taking a piece of Plas Robin home then please do get in touch!
Sun’s out, tongues out 🐾🌞
Our pooches are the heart of Plas Robin Rural Retreats, always excited to give guests a little tour of the local area…including the pubs 🐶 But just in case they are busy, we provide all guests with a guide to our favourite walks, dog friendly eateries and activities so the whole family can enjoy themselves!
Plas Robin Rural Retreats is now powered by the sun 🌞
We don’t get to see David very often but he is often working hard behind the scenes. Here he is giving a very brief overview of some of the improvements we have been making at Plas Robin Rural Retreats. With Wales being one of the sunniest places in the UK, it only makes sense to harness this natural energy source.
Being self-sufficient means we can guarantee a reliable and uninterrupted energy supply, reducing our carbon footprint and paving the way for a more sustainable future. Join us in our mission to be self-sufficient and care for the environment, one solar panel at a time 🌍
🧀 YOU GOTTA PAY THE TAX 🧀 #cheesetax
We love to offer our guests a very warm, Welsh welcome when they stay with us here at Plas Robin... 'Croeso' ! 🥰
I'm smitten with this beauty 👌 #tomraffield
