“We had an incredible relaxing break at Upper Camnant Barn.”

Clean, super cosy and fully equipped. The hot tub (even in the rain) was a perfect end to each day.

Miss Teasdale September 2020

“This is an amazing place to stay if you like rural locations,it is a very quiet & relaxing place with plenty of wildlife and scenery around.”

I recommend taking plenty of supplies as the shop is at least 4 miles away.

Mr Evans July 2020

“The facilities are fine for a short weekend break, however, a dish washer would be useful for a longer trip.”

Not the end of the world though. Due to being on a farm, there is quite alot of flies so plenty of fly spray is needed. Hot tub is nice of an evening or morning with beautiful views of the rolling hills. Owner very friendly. Beds comfy

Mr Walker March 2019

“It was really easy to find and the Fruit loaf upon arrival was a welcome treat and alone was worth a return visit.”

The cottage was well equipped and clean. The horses were welcoming and the chickens were quiet. I would recommend the place as it was homely. We had a fantastic time. Catherine was a great hostess.

Mr Shields February 2019

“We had an unbelievable time here and the accommodation was just perfect for me, my wife, our 3 children and our Dog.”

Away from the hustle and bustle and just surrounded by green. We felt at home here that much we are booking again for next year. The nearest town is about 8 miles with ample shopping facilities. If you are after a home away from home then this is definitely the place for you. We as a family absolutely loved it. Playing football in the garden. Feeding the horses and goats. Jumping in the hot tub at night. Exploring the surrounding fields. The list is endless! Thanks for the fruit loaf on arrival Catherine it was yummy! See you again soon!!!!!

“Catherine the owner couldn’t have done more.”

She always made herself or her mum available if need be and no request was too big or small. Thank you for welcoming us so warmly into your beautiful Barn Conversion. We have already recommended you to one of our friends and will definitely consider coming back again.

Ms Limited April 2018

“We had a great week here.”

We have visited the area before, so knew we would enjoy all the things to do, but hadn't been to Upper Camnant Barn before. The accommodation was fine and we had everything we needed in the cottage. The hot tub was very welcome and we enjoyed it a lot. The views from the hot tub were amazing. We came back well relaxed and happy from our experience. Catherine was great, and the one small problem we had was quickly and efficiently resolved, although we were in the cottage during lambing and she was very busy. Highly recommended.

- Ms Limited, April 2018
Mrs Phelps October 2017

“Camnant barn is an excellant quite relaxing retreat.”

There is everything you need there. The owner Catherine couldn't been more helpful. On our arrival there were flowers on the table, milk in the fridge and tea, coffee and cake waiting for us. The views from the hot tub were lovely. There is a pub couple of miles away which serves excellant meals and good beer. Lovely walks around and we went to Elan dams which are well worth a visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would definitely recommend Camnant barn.

- Mrs Phelps, October 2017
Mrs Rhodes September 2017

“This was a lovely converted barn with original beams and lovely, light and airy decor in keeping with the property .”

The owner has tastefully decorated this larger of the 2 barns and incorporated high ceilings. The pictures on the website do not do any justice to how lovely this property really is and it’s cosy feel inside. The owner was lovely and we had a welcome gift which was a nice touch. We were informed of local places and amenities and responses to questions by text were immediate. We were about 7 miles from Newtown and surrounded by undulating hills and distant views of sheep grazing, windmills and 2 horses and a pony. We later found out that the horses belonged to the owner. The clean air and surroundings were a delight. We enjoyed relaxing in the private covered hot tub whilst admiring the picturesque scenery around us. Was such a lovely break and well needed rest. All the facilities were there and the barn was surprisingly very warm which we had not expected. If you want privacy, peace clean air and lovely scenery then this is the place for you. Very therapeutic and now I understand the meaning of peace and quiet. Don’t get me wrong as this is a lovely family accommodation as there are a number of sites and places to visit just a half hour, 45 minute drive away. We will definitely be booking this barn again soon.

- Mrs Rhodes, September 2017
Miss Bamford September 2017

“Lovely cottage in a lovely location.”

Lots to do in the surrounding villages. Even though it rained a lot on our week there we still thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We managed to get into the hot tub a couple of times which was great. The cottage itself is perfect, has pretty much everything you need. The only thing it didn't have was egg cups but if that's all that we found wrong then you can't really complain can you. Catherine was lovely, made us feel welcome and we felt so comfortable it was like we owned the cottage. We would definitely come back and stay again!

- Miss Bamford, September 2017
Miss Packer April 2017

“This property has been renovated to an extremely high standard.”

The barn is absolutely amazing and the pictures don't do it justice. The accommodation has everything you need. Hot tub is located across from the entry and exit door but it very stoney so you require shoes (I would take flip flops next time) other than that the views are lovely and the garden for children is great. Very quiet location and you need to travel to tourist attractions but that doesn't ruin the stay because the views are amazing. Only recommendation is a larger Camnant sign out the front so it's easier to stop on first arrival. Thank you for a lovely 4 nights away. Relaxing and enjoyable.
