    It was so peaceful and had everything you needed. It was clean and comfortable. The hot tub was so nice to come back to after a day of exploring and was maintained every day. The site is well kept. And there are lots of different birds and wildlife to see. Lovely place.

  • "We stayed in Fawn’s Rest in early April."

    The location was beautifully placed in the countryside, which was fantastic at night when you could so easily watch the stars from the hot tub (it is a light-free area I believe). The drive there was also amazing, very quiet roads through the mid-Wales countryside. The town Rhayader is also amazing, the residents were all so friendly and there was a lovely warm feel to the place, very welcoming and we didn’t see anyone who wasn’t happy to say hi, with a big Tesco superstore about a ten minute drive away, also an Aldi and a few local shops. We enjoyed the walks which were a short drive away (mainly by Rhayader Falls) which were also very quiet and amazingly mountainous, although there were flatter walks if you fancied it. The hosts on the farm were spectacular and left us some goodies with things to do listed and other intriguing facts about Rhayader and the surrounding areas. We even bought some eggs from the chickens on the farm from a honesty payment box on the drive in (they were about a £1 for 6 which was absurdly cheap- the whole place just felt so honest). The cabin was great, perfectly sized for a couple and the little hanging chair on the porch was lovely to sit on in the morning and admire the views (and also the lambs and sheep which were running around the property). We will definitely be returning shortly as it was just a lovely getaway, and the friendliness of the locals just really made it feel special. The views and lambs helped too!

  • "We have just arrived home from a wonderful 4 nights stay at Fawns nest."

    It was the most peaceful and relaxing stay. Myself, my husband and two children enjoyed our stay so much and would love to return. We had everything we needed and more. When we arrived we were left some milk, Welsh pancakes and marshmallows to toast on the fire which was a great touch. Everyone on site was friendly and the highlight for us was the hot tub. Thank you so much for a holiday to remember.

  • "Location and cleanliness of the cabin was fantastic."

    Bed was super comfy, and hot tub was maintained every day of our stay. There is a TV, which isn’t in the photos, so that was an added bonus. The only slight downside was we couldn’t access the WiFi once the cabin doors were shut, and it would have been good if there was a curtain put on the bedroom door to the outside to stop light coming in from dawn as we couldn’t have a lie in, but those were little things. Also loved the firepit and spent one night toasting marshmallows and star gazing which was perfect. Thanks for a lovely stay!

  • "We booked fawns rest because we wanted a peaceful, relaxing break; that's exactly what we got."

    The location was perfect, the lodge had everything we needed. I absolutely loved sitting in the hot tub with red kites circling overhead and listening to the sheep bleating. The welcome pack was a lovely touch and in the evening, we lit the fire pit and toasted the marshmallows out of it. Would definitely recommend and we will be back.
