This lovely wooden-clad lodge, located on a farm, is a great escape for couples or small families, set in a tranquil location with pretty countryside views to be enjoyed from the decked garden. Pack a picnic and discover the 70 miles of the Elan Valley taking a gentle stroll beside one of the lakes, or venturing out along the Elan Valley Walk to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of this area.

The open-plan living area is a great space to kick back and relax in the warmth of the wood burner in the colder months, or to throw open the French doors to extend the space out onto the decked garden and an unfenced pond. Featuring exposed beams and wooden furniture throughout, the property retains much of its original charm which makes it feel like home from the moment you step inside. When you’re craving a homecooked meal, the spacious kitchen is equipped with everything you’ll need, with the dining table located just around the corner for family mealtimes. The first bedroom features a zip-and-link king-size bed, which can be made up as a twin on request and which has French doors which open out to look over the wildlife-rich pond; a tranquil place for a morning coffee. Next door is a downstairs shower room. Up on the first floor is the second bedroom which is a double, with windows that open out onto a quaint balcony with a table and chairs where you can soak in the sights. This room also boasts an en-suite bathroom and access to a mezzanine reading area.

Take a trip into the town of Llandeilo (4 miles) to experience the colourful local culture which offers up a great selection of local eateries, from pubs and cafes to fish and chip shops and restaurants. Head to Hafren Forest (13 miles) for a day out surrounded by natural beauty in the form of majestic waterfalls, fascinating wildlife and adrenaline-inducing biking trails. Here you can see the source of the River Severn and embark on a stretch of the Severn Walk which stretches for 210 miles in total through mountainous landscapes alongside Britain’s longest river.

Perfect. The views from Derw Lodge are phenomenal. It's on a working farm so there were views of cows and sheep in fields right next to the lodge. A DVD player is provided though with a list of DVDs available from the hosts. The upstairs mezzanine has its own small living area which was perfect for our teen, they had their own 'flat' but were stillRead more there just above the main living room. There are plenty of walks direct from the farm, our dog came home very tired from all the walking! It's ideally located for any other site seeing that you may want to do. Log burner for those cooler nights as well. Everything was provided and the washer/dryer was invaluable for the weather we had when we stayed. I'd highly recommend it Hide

Cottage was perfect and better than we had imagined. The owner was so lovely and welcoming and was at hand for any issues we had. Will definitely be returning, the perfect location for a break from a busy reality!

The Lodge is in a wonderful location and extremely comfortable. The balcony is perfect for sunny breakfasts listening to the birds, and the deck catches the afternoon and evening sun. We very much enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning next year.

The property was in a perfect location by a pond with walks from the door. Also in a good location for days out, even the drives out had amazing views. The house was of a very high standard. The games room was great for the teenager. Thoroughly enjoyed the break.
