Beautiful location

The Owlet truly is a special place. .. Sandra & Henry were incredibly lovely hosts and the retreat itself was as beautiful as it was tranquil. There were so many lovely places to visit, many of which will live in our most treasured memories for decades to come. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect getaway from reallife.

Wonderfully hosted by Sandra and Henry, The Owlet was perfect for our family. We couldn't find fault in the accommodation. It has everything, including an excellent hot tub! The location is a superb base from which to explore mid Wales. There is loads to do and see without spending money. We would definitely stay again. Top marks and many thanks to our hosts!

Andrea

This was our first time staying at The Owlet and we weren't disappointed from the beautiful well maintained lodge to the wonderful views this was the most relaxing and peaceful place to stay. Such a great location for woodland walks or a trip to the coast whilst taking in the beautiful Welsh countryside and the hot tub was a huge hit with everyone too! Sandra and Henry were wonderful and made us feel very welcome. The added touches of board games, books and toiletries made our stay feel extra special. If you're looking for a central location with beautiful, stunning views and a place to relax, unwind and enjoy nature you will not be disappointed. Lots of family memories made that will be treasured by all. We enjoyed our stay so much that we have booked again for next year! The Parkin family August 2026

As you drive through the gate the magic begins, with spectacular views of pure countryside. A beautiful lodge in the most peaceful and tranquil setting, all you hear are the sheep and the most amazing bird sounds and dawn chorus. We were blessed to be there in the heatwave ...Sandra and Henry are wonderful hosts second to none, highly recommend booking The Owlet it's a memory you'll never forget.

The Owlet is a beautiful lodge in a quiet location with a stunning view. We loved relaxing in the hot tub after a day's walking in the Welsh Hills watching the lambs playing in the fields at the back. The owners were very welcoming. A good location to explore central Wales. We will be back.

We had the most wonderful stay at the owlet over new year. Hosts Sandra and Henry were welcoming and so helpful. The lodge itself was spotless, decorated beautifully and had everything we needed. There were extra touches like milk and hot chocolate left for us when we arrived. The lodge was peaceful and in a lovely area. The hot tub was great to be able to relax in too!
