Our delightful chalet is situated amidst the spectacular scenery of the Elan Valley and the Reservoirs. It offers a truly peaceful country holiday. The area is ideal for those who love walking with a footpath right outside the door, which leads through ancient oak woodlands and on to the heather clad hill. Pets are welcome.

You can of course just sit and unwind and enjoy the scenery from the large picture windows and the conservatory (with the Red Kite soaring above!) or drive around the lakes and explore the rest of this beautiful area of Mid Wales.
