The Cwtch Cilgee is a contemporary lodge sitting pretty in Mid Wales, just 3 miles northwest of Llandrindod Wells. This modern retreat offers uninterrupted views across the rolling hills of Elan Valley that'll make your jaw drop. It's a working farm location, so expect to wake up to sheep, cows and maybe even witness the miracle of birth if you're lucky (one guest actually saw a calf being born right outside).
The surrounding countryside is perfect for walkers and cyclists. Red kites soar overhead - majestic birds of prey that'll have you reaching for your camera every five minutes. The fully enclosed garden means your dogs can run free without you having heart failure every time they disappear from view.
