Nestled amid verdant countryside in Mid Wales with scenic lake views, this magnificent lodge is the perfect spot to recharge mind, body and soul. Located close to the market town of Rhayader – known as the outdoor capital of Wales – and the Elan Valley, this four-bedroom lodge is ideal for families and friends that love to be immersed in nature. Spend your days hiking, wildlife-watching, mountain biking and horse riding, then return here to dine alfresco and bubble under the stars in your private hot tub.
The lodge welcomes you inside with a bright and expansive open-plan living area, thoughtfully designed to foster togetherness and comfort. The interior has a relaxed rural elegance with natural hues and elegant furnishings set on underheated, tiled floors. The plush sofas and warming wood burner set the scene for memorable evenings in, while the fitted kitchen has warm wooden cabinets and all the necessary appliances for cooking up a storm. Dine inside or out with a table inside and another under the covered terrace. Divided between the ground and first floors, each of the four bedrooms is a sanctuary of comfort and luxury, with super-king-size zip-and-link beds offering flexibility. Three en-suite wet rooms and one family wet room offer comfort and convenience for all. The upstairs front bedroom has a balcony overlooking the lake, while the rear upstairs room overlooks beautiful countryside.
Head outside and you’ll find a delightful, enclosed terrace, with a six-person hot tub, and a dining table and chairs. This area is fully covered, so can be enjoyed whatever the weather. Enjoy some al fresco dining using the charcoal BBQ situated on the lawned area or embrace the serenity of starry nights nestled by the crackling fire pit, where tranquil surroundings and lakeside views picture pure relaxation. Create unforgettable memories in the games room, where a pool table, TV, football table, dart board and table tennis promise endless hours of laughter and friendly competition.
