Charming and beautiful place! Perfect for getting away from busy city, noise and crowds. Gorgeous views, great for stargazing, peaceful and quiet. Kids loved all the space to run around and explore, play football and go on the swings. Hot tub was amazing! We also did marshmallows on the fire pit. Pod is spacious, immaculately clean and fresh. Stocked with anything you might need for a stay. Lovely hosts and great communication! Thank you Gemma and Mark!

tin Schaffer

Willow was nice and clean. Thank you Gemma for Birthday decorations and preheating the hot tub for us. Location is perfect for visiting Hafren forest, Devils bridge and Elan Valey etc. We really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended 1010.

An absolute gem of a place! Had everything you could need and more, the pod was absolutely spotless and so well maintained. The host was fantastic, communication was great and Gemma put up a birthday banner, and left us some cider and crisp, such a thoughtful touch. The hot tub was so relaxing, we dropped on with the weather, sitting in the sunshine listening to the birds and sheep was just perfect, I wish wed booked an extra night!

Melanie

Beautiful setting and beautiful pod. Spotless clean Gemma and mark are very good hosts and nothing is too much 2 nd year weve been and will be rebooking

Rachel

We have just spent a long weekend here at Willow. Absolutely gorgeous place, spotlessly clean, smelt lovely, towels, dressing gowns blankets everything you needed. Outside games for the children, football, skipping rope, tennis rackets. And even better, a park with swings and slide and lovely benches. They have had a ball, and so have we. Hot tub with gorgeous views, comfy bed, roasting marshmallows on an evening. Definitely 1010

Hayley

We stayed at Willow 1 May 4 May. Highly recommended. On arrival was very inviting, and immaculate. Well presented with essentials you would not expect. Very private, scenic and peaceful. Hot tub was very relaxing and enjoyed by all three children. Owners are very formative, and very welcoming. Always available for any queries. Definitely planning to return.

Rachel

Such a gorgeous place to say in the peaceful countryside. We absolutely loved the wood fire hot tub and the children loved the bunk beds! Perfect for visiting nearby Hafren Forest and the Elan Valley. Gem was very helpful and responsive and the property was immaculately clean. We're looking forward to another visit in the future!

Absolutely loved this place. Brilliant location with cracking views and total peace and quiet. Hot tub was a winner, especially in the evening, and the pub just down the road was ideal. Clear skies at night meant loads of stars unreal. Everything you need for a chilled, nostress stay. Would 100 come back.

Ciaran

Perfect cosy cabin great to unwind and has a hot tub to unwind after a day of hikingwalks in the surrounding area. Gemma and Mark are great hosts adding small touches to make our stay even better and when we had an issue Mark was straight on the case to fix it. Would recommend to anyone looking for that glampingcabin feeling. The place is fully insulated and very warm and cosy. The place has running water with an amazing shower and is also equipped with a kitchen. It is well worth it and already thinking about our next trip back to stay here.

We had a fantastic family stay at Willow. The accommodation is absolutely gorgeous. Gemma has put so much thought into it. It was so cosy and comfortable! We were there just before Halloween and there were gorgeous autumnal decorations throughout. The kids loved the hot tub and the adults loved the peace and quiet. We hope to return again.

Thomas

Heather

Had the most amazing little break at Willow. Took us all away from our busy schedules and it was just so peaceful, the hot tub & fire pit were big hits and used every evening. Everything you need was in the pod and it was all to high standards. The robes and fluffy blankets were a lovely touch. Surrounding area we Found enough to do to keep my children entertained & I'd highly recommend a visit to Elan Valley the views are stunning. The best weeks sleep in a long time comfy beds and peaceful surroundings. Couldn't fault it.

Dagmara

What a lovely stay our family of 5 had at Willow. It is spotlessly clean and has everything that you need for a relaxing and comfortable break.

Staying at the Willow was absolutely amazing, the location was 1010, the views, the facilitys, the welcoming feeling, everything about it was brilliant. The location allows travel to various amazing walks, views, activitys and little towns to visit. I couldnt recommend it enough. We spent our early evenings playing card games, badminton, waiting for the hot tub to heat up and cooking dinner with an incredible view. It was amazing, we cannot wait to go back!!

This is our second vist at willows as a family this is perfect to just get away and be a family out in nature the hosts go above and beyond to make our stay perfect nothing was to much trouble for them will definitely be returning for a third visit

It was magical, I cant even describe how amazing this place was. Well equipped and clean. The view was insane Despite the good weather that we had willow was so cozy and comfortable. Thanks Gemma and family xx

Wales was a truly magical experience. Nestled in the peaceful hills near Llangurig, this glamping pod is the perfect blend of cozy comfort and natural beauty. The pod itself is beautifully designed modern, spotlessly clean, and surprisingly spacious. The thoughtful layout includes a wellequipped kitchen, a comfy lounge area, and lovely bedrooms that make it feel like a home away from home. What really sets it apart, though, is the location. Waking up to sweeping countryside views and spending evenings soaking in the private woodfired hot tub under the stars was absolute bliss. Its wonderfully secluded, offering a real sense of escape, yet close enough to explore nearby gems like the Elan Valley and Hafren Forest. Every detail, from the welcoming atmosphere to the peaceful surroundings, made it feel like a special retreat. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway where you can truly unwind and reconnect with nature, Willow at Hidden Gem Escapes is just perfect.

Andrew

Willow is an excellent place to stay to explore the beautiful countryside in the area. It has everything you need in a great setup, with lovely touches that show the owners are really keen to look after their guests. The kids enjoyed all the space around Willow to play games, the local milkshakes and we all enjoyed the hot tub at the end of the day.

Absolutely loved our stay Gemma is so lovely. We will be back

We absolutely loved the pod which is in such a beautiful spot. The pod was spotlessly clean including beautifully clean soft furnishings throughout and the attention to detail made for such a relaxing stay. Our young boys loved riding their bikes and playing football, along with the hot tub, firepit and milkshakes! Thank you for going above and beyond to make it such a great stay.

Willow is a beautiful and cosy place to stay. The v views are so calming and the hello and support available from the owners is unmatched. I would recommend this to anyone looking to explore some of wales or needing a couple of days of relaxation!

We loved our stay, everything was perfect! We will definitely be returning!

We had a wonderful stay at The Willow. It was in a perfect location to see all the beautiful areas of mid wales. The pod itself was perfectly equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and roasting marshmallows on the fire.

Ravinder

We had a fantastic stay in the Willow Pod in North Wales! The views were absolutely breathtaking, and the hot tub was the perfect way to relax after a day of exploring. We were delighted to find the hot tub ready and waiting for us upon arrival. The pod itself was cozy and comfortable, providing the perfect base for our family getaway.

Such an amazing stay in a beautiful setting. We had such a relaxing time at Willow, everything we needed and more! The pod really is a hidden gem, so comfy & cosy yet more than enough room for our family of 4, with the most amazing surroundings & views, especially when relaxing in the hot tub which was also 1 of our highlights! So much space for my boys to play football too, they had a great time! We really didnt want to leave

Willow is our new favourite place! Myself and my husband stayed here for 3 nights in August. The owners Gemma and Mark have literally thought of everything to make sure their guests stay is just perfect. From delicious chocolates on the bed to prosecco and cider chilling in the fridge and not forgetting the marshmallows, crisps and Welsh cake that also greeted us! what a lovely touch to welcome us to our beautiful holiday home. The hot tub is AMAZING!! Gemma and Mark pre lit it for our arrival so it was ready for us to get in when we arrived. Which we did! We spent lots of time in it relaxing and looking at all the stars of an evening. It was just perfect. The bed was extremely comfortable, the shower was great, it has excellent kitchen facilities with everything you need and all in all we had the most wonderful relaxing time here and we will definitely be returning soon!

Gemma & Mark have a wonderful hidden Gem everything has been so well thought out everything is clean tidy & breathtaking view from the hot tub what more could anyone want. The pod has a double bed, settee, dining table & everything you'd want in a kitchen.The 2nd bedroom could sleep 3 a spacious shower.If you didn't want to toast marshmallow on the fire pit & sit outside in the peace & quiet you could always walk down the hill to the local pub should you wish to.So much beauty on the doorstep for everyone's need.Thank you for such a wonderful stay Willow

Lourelai

It was our first time to stay in a pod and we are very glad to have chosen Willow. We felt very welcomed as we entered the pod. The owners have put a very outstanding effort in making sure that guests have just the relaxing break they need. Everything in the pod was excellent. We had a fab time in the hot tub 1 whilst the sun was shining as well as 2 whilst it was raining. This place is really worth a try especially for the nature lovers out there. The location is perfect as there are lots of places to visit i.e. Elan Valley. 2 nights were not enough to explore the beauty that surrounds this place. Thanks to this hidden gem escape for giving us a wonderful experience. We will be back.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! Everything was immaculate and tidy, the pod was comfortable and beautifully decorated, making our stay both relaxing and enjoyable. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a fantastic and cozy getaway. We loved every moment of our stay and will definitely be back! Thanks Gemma!
