Offering panoramic views over the Dyfi Valley towards the Snowdonia mountains, the design of the chic little cabin outside Machynlleth was inspired by the Welsh slate industry, so it fits effortlessly into its natural surroundings. Sleeping two people in one bedroom, it’s the ideal country retreat for a romantic couple in search of peace and tranquillity in the Welsh countryside. With its clever, compact design, this cabin sits on a working farm and was showcased on the ‘Cabins in the Wild’ TV series. You’ll love waking up to the stunning views from your bed, and spending romantic evenings snuggling in front of the pot-bellied wood burner.
Step inside and you’ll discover a wonderful space bathed in natural light. Rustle up some dinner in the kitchenette and dine at the handy pull-out table. After dinner, enjoy a glass of wine on the deck, or get cosy on the sofa and take in the amazing views of Cader Idris and Aran Fawddwy. When it’s time for bed, the sofa transforms into a king-size bed at the touch of a button. In the morning, start your day with a coffee in bed. The bed elevates at the touch of a button so you can get the very best views from where you’re lying.
Grab your hiking boots and challenge yourself to the climb up Aran Fawddwy (9 miles). Along the way you’ll see the awesome crags of Cwm Cywarch, as well as excellent views of the Rhinog Mountains. Alternatively, head into Machynlleth (7 miles) to visit its Museum of Modern Art or the Centre for Alternative Technology. There are plenty of quirky boutiques and alternative lifestyle stores to check out there too.
