We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay, the beautiful views, and the peace and tranquillity of the surroundings. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’re so pleased you felt comfortable and well looked after. Best Wishes Heather & Graeme
We stayed in September 2026.
The Cuckoo Hut was beautifully appointed, lots of fantastic touches to make the place feel special. Amazing views over the hills from the terrace and the hot tub. The hot tub was warmed to temperature on arrival and was a perfect way to end the day. We loved everything about our stay. The owners left us to our own devices but when we bumped into them the morning we were leaving, we chatted for ages, friendly and really happy to share what they have built here. Thank you so much Graham and Jenny
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your stay at The Cuckoo Hut and all the little touches, as well as those beautiful views from the terrace and hot tub. It’s lovely to know the hot tub was the perfect way to unwind at the end of the day. We’re so pleased you felt able to relax and enjoy your own space, and it was an absolute pleasure chatting with you before you left. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
A unique cosy , clean and comfortable stay.
Owners of Cuckoo Hut have cleverly designed and decorated the interior to a high standard. Outside decking with hot tub, garden furniture and eating area provided a very enjoyable stay. Our dog was welcome and plenty of walks available nearby.
Thank you for your time to write feedback - it's much appreciated! Thank you for your lovely comments about Cuckoo Hut. Great you loved the inside and outside design and made your stay cosy & comfortable. We are very dog friendly and it is great having a dog paddock on site and as you say walks from the doorstep or nearby. Thank you for choosing Cuckoo Hut as the place for your recent stay. Best wishes Heather and Graeme
Very peaceful and tranquil location for me and my dog.
Bit tricky to get to as the roads are a bit challenging !! ( go in from the south) But it's worth it for the stunning location. The fresh bread on arrival was delicious. The hut is gorgeous inside, spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished and decorated. There's plenty of storage and it's surprisingly spacious. Very well equipped, the hosts have thought of everything, even charging cables. I slept soundly on the massive comfy bed. It was really hot but the front of the hut was shady and cool by the afternoon (plenty of sunshine by the side!) so we spent most of our time on the comfy outdoor sofa admiring the view. There were enough logs supplied for the log burners for a couple of nights. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly and had lots advice about the local area. My dog made friends with their lovely dogs and the dog field was great for sniffles and chasies. The area has plenty of interesting dog friendly places to explore. It was too hot for our usual long walkies but there were lots of places for a doggie paddle. There's a couple of walks from the hut, which we did on on a evening as the sun set, with just the many sheep for company! We had a fantastic time, if you're looking for peace and quiet this is the place.
Hi Thank you for your feedback, it's very much appreciated and for all your amazing comments about Cuckoo Hut. We're glad you slept perfectly, loved the views and the peace & quiet. We're glad you enjoyed the lovely areas to visit with your dog: the village and the stream behind the church, the river from Rhiwagor waterfall at Lake Vyrnwy, the river from Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall; especially with this weather as they provide opportunities for your dog to cool off. The walks in the valley offer stunning views especially with the sunsets at the end of the valley. You'd both be welcome back anytime! Best wishes, Heather and Graeme
Where to start?
! From first contact to departure the owners were absolutely amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. We stayed at Cuckoo because we were attending a gig at Llangollen Pavillion. Although not the closest accommodation to our venue, for the price we paid it was absolutely incredible and worth every penny. The hut is well presented and tastefully decorated with two of everything you could possibly need for a short break in a tiny home. The bed was super comfortable, with good quality bedding, reading lamps and a Tv. The fridge, toaster, kettle and microwave were in good condition, the hot water plentiful and with good pressure and the cold tap was cold even given it was 32-34 degrees outside! The two ring electric convection stove was ample for our needs, I managed to cook a pasta dish for two with the equipment provided. The bathroom, as with the whole hut, was compact but still tastefully decorated with lovely knickknacks and artwork. Plenty of loo roll, hand soap, two comfy robes and a super overhead shower. Our hosts messaged to ask if the bread that they usually provide (freshly baked) on arrival would be more appreciated on the morning after our arrival due to us being out all evening. When it arrived it was still warm and smelled delicious, it didn’t disappoint! We will definitely be returning to this hut as it is such a beautiful spot and so peaceful, sitting in the hot tub looking out over the valley with a glass of wine was divine! We downloaded the birdsong app Merlin and simply listened to the many different birds. Peace perfect peace! Thanks Heather and Graham for a wonderful break. xx
Thank you for your feedback ,it's much appreciated. Where do we start too?! :) All your lovely comments are really heartfelt, thank you very much; especially when doing changeovers that week in the 32 degrees heat :) We're glad you liked the decor as well as all the equipment & facilities available, We aimed to deisgn it so it's both cosy and functional (that everything is there that you'd need so it's easily to hand and you can focus on relaxing). We're a great location to listen to & identify the birdsong on the Merlin App, there is quite a range we get. You'd be absolutely welcome back anytime for more peace perfect peace! Best wishes & thank you again! Heather & Graeme
Decided on a last minute break.
Found Wild Valley huts, stayed in cuckoo and it was absolutely perfect, very clean and well equipped everything we needed. Heather and Graeme was brilliant host, left us to enjoy our stay, only a call or text away if you needed anything. Very special touch with a freshly baked loaf of bread, it was delicious. Definitely will be staying again. Many thanks Ste and Clair
Thank you for your review, your time to feedback is very much appreciated. We're glad we were a perfect last minute break for you snd enjoyed the fresh bread on your arrival. You'd be welcome back anytime! Best wishes, Heather & Graeme
First stay here and definitely won't be our last.
Such a welcoming couple will to help Our recent stay was absolutely wonderful, and we're already planning our return trip! The shepherd's hut offered such a peaceful and relaxing escape for us as a couple. Waking up to the quiet countryside was pure bliss. We truly enjoyed every moment of our time there. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a serene getaway.
Hi Thank you for your time to leave your feedback, it's appreciated! That's great to hear it won't be your last stay here. You're more than welcome back anytime! The location offers that slice of peace and quiet, we're glad you enjoyed being immersed in it. There is literally no traffic, no noise just the sound of sheep, birds and the stream. Lambs have arrived today so we have the cute baas from them too - perfect to see and hear from Cuckoo decking. When you're ready for peace and quiet, with the only sounds being the sounds of nature, we'll have a place for you. Best wishes Heather and Graeme
Absolutely awesome!
Cuckoo” shepherds hut is completely charming and cosy with picturesque views across the valley. Inside is warm, beautifully designed with extra special finishing touches. Super comfortable bed and great shower with plentiful hot water on tap! Cotton robes were provided to use for going to the hot tub which was amazing, too! I also loved that fact that eco/hand made products were provided for use, during my stay. Great base for visiting the waterfalls and exploring the surrounding valley. The local village is pretty and home to a friendly Café serving Welsh breakfasts and tasty home baked treats. Also a fab Butchers, fish n chip shop and an interesting gift shop selling hand made crafts from local villages. The village is a good walk down the lane and along a public footpath through sheep fields and little woodland. Heather and Graeme have carefully thought about everything to create a homely and relaxing welcome at Wild Valley Huts. Even dog bowels, blankets and a “dog library” of toys! They were always happy to help me if I needed anything. I couldn’t have wished for anything more. I have left feeling totally relaxed, inspired and will hold many treasured memories of this special place. Xena
What can we say - thankyou! Feeling totally relaxed after your stay is our intention and we take time to ensure your stay and our guests' stays are as smooth and as comfortable as possible so you can maximise on the opportunity to relax. Your feedback makes what we do all worthwhile. Thank you again! Reading all your lovely comments, I think I may go and spend a stay in there myself. We're glad you like the design of Cuckoo, we wanted it to be warm and cosy a real home from home feel. We are lucky to have so many fabulous facilities and gorgeous natural wonders near us and we're glad you enjoyed visiting them. The good thing is the opportunity to explore locally and the surrounding area never runs out! Best wishes and thankyou for choosing Cuckoo Hut for your recent stay/ Heather & Graeme
Lovely quiet site not far from a village with good shops and other facilities, also not far from Pistyll Rhaeadr.
Llyn Vyrnwy half an hour's drive. Very easy to find on Google maps Dog loved the hut and the dog library, generally the property was very dog friendly with bowls and a dog blanket. We loved the hot tub and the wood burning stove, and the bad and pillows were amazingly comfy. Not keen on the rain shower or very small sink, but personal preference. Lane up from village was tough going sometimes. Internet was off for a day but a surprise bottle of birthday prosecco made up for it. Fresh bread was fantastic. Great for a weekend or midweek break.
Hello, Thank you for your time to leave your feedback, it's much appreciated! We're glad you enjoyed how quiet it is staying here, yet not too far away from the village with shops, pubs and eateries or natural wonders. We hope you had an enjoyable birthday stay away. That's great to hear your dog settled well and liked the toys on the dog library. I hope there were enough there, sometimes our dogs leave them in the dog field. I apologise the internet was off for a day, after you'd let us know and Graeme popped down, I hope it worked fine. Thank you for suggesting we're a great option for a weekend or mid-week break. All your feedback has been appreciated Best wishes Heather & Graeme
The property was amazing!
Loved the location. Booked this on a whim at 3am peaceful and perfect. My partner is allergic to feathers so pillows were removed before we arrived. Nothing was too much. Fresh bread was a nice touch. Hot tub didn't get warm enough the 2nd day maybe due to the local water source / heating system. Still can't fault it. You need to stay here if you want to sit back and unwind. We will be back
Hello, We loved your approach to booking a few days away. Thank you for choosing The Cuckoo Hut as the place for your stay. It was lovely to meet you both. We're glad you liked the fresh bread and found our location one where you could sit back, relax & unwind. I'm sorry to hear the hot tub didn't reach your desired temperature on the second day. We'd have come and looked at it for you if we were aware. We're happy to come and look at anything our guests would like. Thank you for your time to leave your feedback and you'd be absolutely welcome back anytime! Best wishes Heather & Graeme
We had an amazing stay at Cuckoo hut - It is a perfect getaway spot for a relaxing holiday and has plenty to do nearby!
The inclusion for dogs as part of the holiday is better than what we have ever seen - The dog toy library and enclosed field space definitely kept our dog entertained! We also loved meeting Goose and Maverick as the resident dogs. Our only feedback is that it would be nice to have more hooks to hang wet clothes for rainy stays but other than that, amazing! Thank you!
Hello, Thank you for your time to leave your feedback, it's really appreciated. We're glad you had a perfect getaway and a relaxing time during your stay. There are lots of local attractions within a close distance making guests able to choose from full relaxation at the huts or intwine it with local visits too. The dog library has been a success with dogs. We're sorry it may have been lacking in toys. Some are in the field and we're not sure where they are. As the grass dies back now, we'll be able to find them (fingers crossed) or buy some more, which will be much to the enjoyment of our dogs (Maverick & Goose). As soon as we read your comment about additional hooks, we completely agreed with you. It's on our shopping list to get some. Thank you for your suggestion, we always welcome guests' views & thank you for choosing Wild Valley Huts as the place for your stay. Best wishes Heather & Graeme and Maverick & Goose
Wow!
We spent a fabulous midweek break at the Cuckoo Hut. When we arrived the hut was beautifully prepared; spotless. Really nice touches. Fresh bread in the bread box, a 'dog throw' for the bed. The hot tub was on and ready. The king-size bed was comfortable and there was plenty of space for 2 people and our 2 dogs. Bathroom was just right. The decking was perfect for the dogs and well enclosed. Very easy to walk from the door around the surrounding lanes. Quick drive to other stunning walks. Just so peaceful. H and G are fabulous hosts and very thoughtful (kindly gave us some Rhubarb to take home). This is such a nice place. We would definitely recommend and hope to return ourselves.
Hi, Thank you for all your lovely comments. We feel your feedback captures perfectly what the Cuckoo Hut is all about - thank you! It was a pleasure to meet you all. We appreciate you recommending us and of course, you'd be welcome back anytime you'd like a remote escape! I hope the rhubarb tasted ok! As you suggested, I'm going to try rhubarb scones:) Best wishes Heather
Graeme and Heather were excellent and attentive hosts.
they were very welcoming and made it clear that they were always on call throughout our stay
Hi, Thank you for leaving feedback, it's much appreciated. We like to make guests aware we're available if required and happy to help to make your stay relaxing. Thank you for choosing Wild Valley Huts as the place to book your stay. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
We had a great stay at Wild Valley Huts.
We stayed in the Cukoo lodge and it was (in our opinion) the best property on the site. The views were stunning, it was cosy and the local walks were great. On arrival, the owners had made us some bread which was a very nice touch, it was still warm when we arrived. Heather and Graeme were excellent hosts, very friendly and came and chatted with us before we left. The hot tub was the icing on the cake and we were in it every night. We will most definitely be returning in the future.
Hi Thank you for your review, we appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment, which was so lovely to read. Thank you for all your fabulous comments. We're glad you had an enjoyable stay in Cuckoo Hut and enjoyed the views and local walks. The position of the hot tub is quite unique, with open views of the fields & hills or a clear night the stars. Thank you for sending us some of your photos, they're brilliant and thank you for your permission in allowing us to use them in our newsletter & Instagram posts to support potential guests see what the area is like. It was lovely to meet you & it would be great to welcome you back in the future. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
Lovely relaxing holiday in peaceful rural setting.
Shepherds hut was great, very compact with everything to make your stay enjoyable and comfortable. Heather and Graeme were great hosts, welcoming and unobtrusive. Freshly baked bread a lovely treat. Very dog friendly, walks from the door, ideally situated for adventures further afield. British weather came to the party as well so 5 stars from me.
Thank you for all your lovely comments about your stay and the 5* We're glad you had an enjoyable & comfortable stay and everything you felt you needed was available to you. It is a haven for local walks and like you mention for both short & more adventurous walks too to suit both humans and their furry friends. If we could, I'd send you a loaf in the post but I think the rustic loaf would be too crispy on the outside when it arrived. Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, it's much appreciated. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
We had the best stay as a little baby moon.
The hut is gorgeous with everything that you need, the outside space is perfect for relaxing in the evenings. Heather couldn’t have been more helpful if she tried, going above and beyond. We will certainly be back, with a little one in tow!
What fabulous feedback - thank you! We're glad you had a great stay in Cuckoo Hut for your baby moon. Thank you for all your lovely comments. I just wanted to make sure everything was 'really really' fine for your stay before your new arrival. It was a pleasure having you stay and absolutelyit would be lovely to see you back. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
If you are pondering then ponder no more … this is an excellent secret escape.
We stayed in the Cuckoo hut, highly recommended. Beautifully done out, well equipped, amazing scenery & the hot tub is the icing on the cake. Heather & Graeme are perfect hosts, much appreciated & a big thank you to you both from Marie & Lee
Hello to you both, Thank you for your time to write a review, we appreciate it! We're going to use your review in our next newsletter and share your thoughts.

I may borrow that phrase :) We love your comments about the hut and your stay and we're really pleased you had a fabulous escape for your birthday celebrations! We hope you enjoyed your horse-riding session before your drive home. When you're ready for an escape in the future, we'll have a spot for you both. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
Very clean, very well equipped and maintained.
Extras like a cafetière and corkscrew which are often missing in many properties. Felt luxurious and homely.
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to write to us with your feedback, it is very much appreciated. It's lovely to hear that you felt like you had a luxurious & homely stay - thank you.

Lovely part of the world and the owners have really thought about every detail to ensure people enjoy their stay.
Hello, Thank you for your feedback and lovely comments. We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Wild Valley Huts in the Cuckoo Hut. We're glad you enjoyed being in the Maengwynedd valley which has so much to offer & felt we offered that too with everything we have included inside the huts. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
A fantastic location.
The accommodation was spotless the owners Heather and Graeme were amazing. Welcomed us with fresh warm bread on arrival. Willing to offer advice on particular walking routes. Set in a tranquil beautiful valley the scenery is absolutely stunning. Sunrise and sunsets were awesome and the zero light pollution was exquisite for star gazing. Flo (our Border Collie) loved the safe dog friendly environment and meeting the owners 2 dogs "Maverick and Goose" Thank for a truly memorable short holiday and will definitely be back again.
Hi, We hope you all had a great walk on your way home yesterday. Thank you for your feedback, it is very much appreciated. Thank you for all the lovely comments about your stay. We're glad you loved our location; with the views, peace & quiet & openess to see stunning sunrises and sunsets. (Since moving here, we do have to pinch ourselves sometimes to check it's not a dream). There have been sightings of the Northern Lights from here too if theyare ever likely to occur and it's something you'd like to see. Walking in the area is like having it all to yourself and we're glad you all enjoyed your days of walking & exploring. Best wishes Heather & Graeme:)
Loved my stay at Wild Valley Huts.
I stayed in Cuckoo Hut with my dog Bruno whilst my mum stayed over in the bunkhouse. Cuckoo hut was perfect. Clean, bed was comfy and had great facilities. Had a lovely friendly welcome from owners as well. Is dog friendly too with a field onsite fot them too. Bowls are also provided for dogs too which is a nice touch. Lots to do in nearby areas. We went into Llangollen, to lake Vyrnwy and iron works museum all of which were around 30 min drive away but well worth it. Amazing scenery and it was lambing season so got to see lots of lambs. Such a peaceful atmosphere will stay again and recommend you in the future too. Thanks again for a lovely stay here.
Hi, We are so pleased you loved your stay! We're glad you liked the dog field, we plan to build a dog library there too this spring ready for the summer. There is so much to see and do nearby and you certainly visited places that are highlights in the area. If you do visit again, there are lots of other places to visit and recommendations we can make. Thank you for recommending us to others, that is very much appreciated and thank you for your time to leave the review. Best wishes & you know where we are if you choose a future visit. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
Perfect location, nice and quiet, beautiful views, nice walks, dog friendly
Hi, We hope this finds you well. Thank you for your review, it's much appreciated. We're glad you thought the location is perfect, we think that too and love having the shepherd huts so we can share the views & scenery with others. Dogs are more than welcome. We have an enclosed decking area with each hut for dogs and there is also a dog paddock, where dogs can be freely off lead whilst under their owner's supervision. Thank you for booking your stay with us. Best wishes Heather & Graeme :)
We have just returned home from our 4 night stay.
Graeme and Heather were very welcoming and attentive. Accommodation itself was spotless, we have had everything we needed for self catering holiday. We stayed in the Cuckoo hut. Location itself was perfect for us, as we wanted to escape the busy city life and have some quiet quality time together exploring but also being lazy and relax. We will be definitely recomending and visiting again as for us it was perfect getaway!
Hello, Thank you both very much for leaving a review, your time is appreciated. I'm glad you both found it was 'a perfect getaway.' The location is special and does offer you the chance to relax and be surrounded by the peace & quiet, which I'm glad you enjoyed. If Wild Valley Huts was in a tin, your review would be spot on with our ethos 'It does exactly what it says on the tin.' :) Thank you for recommending us and you would be more than welcome anytime. Best wishes Heather & Graeme :)
Lovely stay in a beautifully kept shephards hut - plenty of walks in the area, and the hosts were very attentive.
Highly recommend a stay at Wild Valley huts :)
Hi, I hope this finds you well. Once again, thank you for placing your booking for your stay away with Wild Valley Huts. Thank you for your lovely comments about our Cuckoo Hut and the local area. I hope you both enjoyed exploring the walks. You can literally leave from your hut door and explore a walk in any direction :) Thank you for your recommendation too! Best Wishes, Heather & Graeme
Throughly enjoyed my stay with Heather and Graham.
They couldn't do enough to make sure i was comfortable during the storm. Would highly recommend anyone to visit for the views, wildlife and scenery plus excellent hospitality. I will definitely be returning.
Hello, Thank you for taking a moment to leave feedback about your stay with us, it's very much appreciated. The storm! If we gave annual guest awards, I think 'the extreme guest' award would be to yourself. The storm of 70-80mph was unbelievable. Thank you for being a great guest over an unpredictable few days. I'm glad you felt warm and comfortable during your stay. Thank you for your reommendation and I'm glad the views and scenery were available to immerse yourself in when the winds had died down. You'd be more than welcome back! Best wishes, Heather & Graeme :)
Wild Valley Huts is the most beautiful place for anyone who wants to get off grid and unwind, surrounded by an abundance of natural beauty and wildlife.
The owners are extremely helpful, it was an education for me to learn more about climate change, having an informative hand book that provides you with lots of advice and tips on blending into the environment, leaving things as we find them, leaving no footprints, and the efforts that the owners go to to make sure they are economically greener with an emphasis on biodegradable products and immaculate grounds. There is a small greenhouse where you can find lots of different vegetables and herbs growing and some plants are for sale too! When we arrived, the owners provided us with a bouquet of roses and chocolates, local specialty cheese & biscuits to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. Zero light pollution = great for anyone who likes to watch the amazing array of Birds that live here. This is our 2nd visit to Wild Valley Huts, we stayed in Red Kite in June and just returned from an amazing week of pure relaxation, staying at Cuckoo. So many points of interest, we enjoyed Pistyll Rhaeadr Waterfall, 240ft mountain waterfall, with a tea room. Wild Valley Huts nearest village is Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant 2.5 mls down hill. The Village Square has all the essential facilities you will need to make your stay more comfortable with an award winning Butchers, post office, spar and craft shop, indian takeout and 2 public houses, one with an open fire, while the other does food too! The Fish & Chip shop is extremely popular and we enjoyed our hot chips and curry sauce after cool days walking and exploring. I would highly recommend you stay here if you want to get away and enjoy the nature and wildlife in abundance.
Hi Helen, Whoah, what can we say? Thank you for your lovely comments and your time in writing this very reflective review, that's very appreciated. I think all we can say is - yes. You've painted a clear picture of what Wild Valley Huts is like for potential future guests reading this review. Thank you! Again, Happy 20th Anniversary and we were glad to have been your chosen location for you both to celebrate it. Warm Wishes to you both, Heather & Graeme :)
A wonderful stay!
Everything was perfect and so peaceful.
Thank you Jess for your feedback, it's very much appreciated. It is a peaceful location. Certainly a place to relax and chill out. We're glad you had a great stay. Best wishes Heather & Graeme:)
We loved our stay here and felt very welcomed.
... accommodation was clean, well equipped and in a lovely location
Hello, It was lovely to see you again. We're glad you both loved your stay here and enjoyed the scenery & views on your walks and relaxing by the outdoor fire together not having to share it with anyone else. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
My partner and I were lucky enough to have chosen Cuckoo with Sykes cottages, we found the cottage very clean, and in beautiful surroundings, we met the owners who were very friendly, and will definitely be going back, but anyone that’s looking for a quick break to get away from everything and everybody I would fully recommend,, I also give my permission for any of these comments to be used for advertising or recommendations .
Your sincerely , Lord, Stanley Todd MBE
Hello to you both! Thank you for your feedback, it is very much appreciated. We are glad you both enjoyed your time here. It is certainly a location where you can escape the typical day to day. We had a few days of rain after you left but we're back to crisp, fresh autumn mornings. A little chilly but the sunshine on the hills is stunning. You'd be welcome back anytime! Your recomendation is perfect. I may use it too for one of my Instagram posts - thank you! Best wishes Heather & Graeme
Had a fab stay, our second time staying.
We were well looked after and enjoy the tranquility of the area.
Hello Tina, Thank you for your feedback from your stay and a double thank you for booking with us a second time!! It was a pleasure to see you both again. Take Care, Heather & Graeme
We stayed at the Cuckoo shepherds hut and we were amazed at how lovely this place was.
We had an amazing time, the relaxing countryside farm was just what we needed. Thank you so much for the stay and we will certainly be back again.
Hello, Thank you for your feedback, it is very much appreciated! We're glad you loved it here and had an amazing time. The views are stunning and it's great to sit back and relax at 'sheep pace.' Thank you for booking with us and you'd be more than welcome to visit again. Graeme was intrigued or should I say envious of your BBQ set up :) Best wishes Heather & Graeme
The place is amazing, could not fault it one bit!
So worth the money for the beautiful scenery and environment surrounding the hut! Great place for dogs too! My dog had the best stay and we can’t wait to book again for the future!
Hi Elle, Thank you for your comments, we're glad you liked it. The hut and surroundings are something else and a replace busy days with relaxing days. I'm glad you're dog enjoyed it. We're going to add some more pathways into the field for dogs to explore or just dive into the bits with long grass :) Best wishes to you both and enjoy the rest of your summer. Heather & Graeme
We really enjoyed our stay here.
The hut was clean and cosy, superb views and so peaceful. Owners are lovely. Highly recommend and will definitely go again.
Hi, Thank you!! It was a pleasure having you stay. We're glad you enjoyed it. Re the red kites, they were cutting grass the last few weeks in June / first week in July. That was a real treat for seeing the Red Kites - a good 7 or 8 of them were just hovering over the fields. Just message about it next year if it's of interest and I've popped in the diary a reminder to put it in a newsletter too. I hope you had some good photos aswell as your relaxing break. Best wishes Heather & Graeme
The shepherds hut was totally amazing and perfect in every way.
Spotlessly clean,immaculately furnished, beautiful views and wonderful hosts! Couldn’t ask for more!! Paul and Diane from Cornwall.
Hello Paul & Diane, I hope you had a good journey home and enjoyed your detour on the way. Thank you for your kind comments, that's lovely! It was lovely to meet you both and hear about the adventures you had while staying in the Cuckoo Hut. Best wishes Heather, Graeme and Maverick & Goose :)
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at wild valley huts,the location was beautiful, views and very quiet ,the hut was very clean and the owners were friendly.
Will book again definitely. Thankyou
Hi Lee, Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate your time to complete it. We're glad you enjoyed The Cuckoo Hut. From the decking the views are beautiful and for guests they never change during your stay. It is very quiet round here and we're glad you enjoyed that tranquility. However, a couple of days after you left they were sheep shearing on the local farm. When the sheep have been sheared and put back out, it's not so quiet then :) Still a lovely sound to hear. Thank you again & best wishes to you and Julie, Heather & Graeme
A really peaceful and tranquil location to relax or to enjoy the excellent walking routes.
Sat on the deck all you can hear are sheep, birds and the stream below - heavenly! The hut is well thought out and everything is provided. We had to make use of the heating despite it being June but it made the hut toasty warm. The shower is great and there was plenty of hot water on demand. No phone signal at all (bliss) but the wi-fi at the hut is plenty strong enough for streaming i-player etc. Our only tiny negative was there are no comfortable chairs inside - the stools are ok for short use but not if you're sat playing card games when it's raining like we did! Some tips for other travellers - the Pistyll Rhaeadr Waterfall is well worth a visit as are Chirk and Powis castles (both National Trust and well within an hour's drive away). Oh and just to note that the roads around the hut are unsuitable for vehicles with low ground clearance. We had a lovely break at Cuckoo and would heartily recommend it!
Hi Carol, Thank you for your lovely comments about the Cuckoo Hut and your stay there. We are glad you had a great stay! It is an idylic location and we just want guests to be part of that too. I loved your line about 'using the heating even in June.' The weather has been surprising this year but you're right it is a super cosy, toasty hut when you're snuggled in. We appreciate your comment about the comfy chairs. We've had a look at possible tub chairs and will continue to look into it. Quick question... do you think it was more there being no back to the stools or general comfort being more in a chair than stool? Best wishes
What a wonderful find!
So cosy and comfortable and impossibly clean. Fantastic location, the only sounds to be heard are the stream and the sheep in the opposite field. Heather and Graeme were such great hosts, so friendly, helpful and genuinely want their guests to have a great experience - the croissants were fab !
Hello Shirley, I hope this finds you well. Thank you for your feedback it's so lovely to read you enjoyed your stay. You're right, we do want guests to have a great experience. We feel Maengwynedd is an amazing place to relax and we want others to enjoy that too. I'm glad you liked the croissants! Thank you for being an official taste tester. We've gone with that brand and now have them on our website as added extras. Thank you for letting us know your thoughts on them. Best wishes Heather & Graeme :)
