Portia

Absolutely beautiful place to stay, very generously sized pod, big kitchen for cooking, nice sized garden for any kids or dogs with a large area outside with a park in it. Was spotless when we got there, loved every second of being there and really didnt want to leave it was so good! Will 100 be going back there again!!

Outstanding! We really enjoyed our stay! A peaceful environment and the views are breathtaking.

Beautiful cabin & fantastic area, we had such a nice stay. The kids loved the play park & seeing the sheep, the dog loved it to. The cabin was really clean & beautifully presented. If we come back to the area we will definitely be staying here again.

The most stunning and peaceful location. Lovely accommodation. Beautiful views and animals. Friendly helpful hosts. Just perfect.

I sent a msg to the phone number supplied requesting information & received no reply. The property was beautiful and equiped we everything that we needed.

Bluebell is amazing, in such a lovely area, lovely seeing the chickens and sheep around, hot tub a lovely touch too

What an amazing place. We couldn't fault anything. The Pod is beautifully designed and surprisingly spacious with lots of secure outdoor space for pets whilst also being very private. It is in a great location, looking out over fields with only the sheep and Red Kites for company. Nearby Rhayader has some lovely little shops for essentials and a beautiful river walk and is only a few minutes away by car. There was some building work going on for the last few days, but we were politely told about it and the result was a delightful play area. We will be coming back. It is a fantastic place to relax.

Bluebell was absolutely lovely, the QR code which showed nearby places was great as it gave us a few things to do on our stay. The enclosed garden was also great for our dog. Compared to another site we stayed on last year, this one is non comparable and we will definitely be back here! It was also furnished with everything we needed and was spotless! We wished we couldve moved in, we didnt want to leave!

Veronica

This was a perfect get away from city life. We will definitely be back.

Chayse

We have stayed in a couple of places in Rhayader and this cabin is by far the best, very clean and tidy, so much cupboard space for food and plenty of space for clothes belongings. There was loads of information in the book with places to visit things to do. Really big enclosed garden, lovely views, seating area and fire pit. It had such a homely feeling to it, 100 would recommend booking this cabin, we will definitely be returning!

BlueBell pod is absolutely beautiful, it was above and beyond our expectations. It had such a warm homely feel to it, all the essentials youd need were supplied, thank god for the wifi as we both never had signal, although this did have its perks of peacefulness and switching off from the world! Beautiful location, lovely outdoor area with the hot tub and fire pit, I wish we had brought our Furbaby! Only minor thing we could identify was we felt the hot tub area wasnt private as it was very open plan as you can see your neighbours. Although this was not a issue for us! we didnt want to leave, we will mostly definitely be returning in the future!!

Amanda

Bluebell pod was great and very well equipped. It has everything for a very enjoyable stay. Secure garden area for our dogs, ample parking and a lovely quiet location. Super fast WiFi was also a great benefit. We loved the outdoor seating area with the private hot tub and fire pitBBQ. All in all we had a fantastic stay here and will definitely be going back.
