Perfect!

Marches Way was everything we were looking for in a long weekend stay! The site was beautifully maintained with a calm but friendly atmosphere - we felt our cabin had enough privacy while still being part of the site. The cabin itself had everything we could have possibly needed for our stay, it is clear that a lot of thought has gone into the accommodation. The cabin was beautifully cleaned upon arrival with complimentary tea and coffee well stocked and some complimentary waffles too! The hot tub was great & the views were amazing - we loved watching the sunset each evening. Overall we had an amazing trip & couldn’t fault anything - we would recommend staying here to anyone!

Lovely shepherds hut with beautiful views

This is the second time we have stayed at the marches and it didn’t disappoint. we love the location, the peacefulness of the site and the hut is beautiful. The hot tub is a bonus. Ideal spot for visiting Elan valley for a spot of cycling and taking in the beauty of our wonderful country.

Lovely Short Stay

This was my first time going on a solo shirt break and it didn’t disappoint. I wish I booked to stay longer. Marches Way and its location were peaceful and stunning, surrounded by the countrysides of Rhayader and in close driving proximity to Elan Valley. Thank you for a wonderful stay, I can’t wait to return in the future!

Perfection

Absolutely LOVED my stay at Marches Way, just the escape needed. The hut is small but perfectly formed, comfortable, and well equipped with views for miles. 100% will return.

Pictures don’t do it justice. Beyond perfect, stunning place to stay.

Stayed 3 nights here and it was a shame we didn’t book for more! Absolutely beautiful place to stay, everything was perfect about it and the added bonus of the hot tub was amazing. The homemade raspberry lemonade was a lovely touch and it was really nice to! The massive enclosed garden was perfect to let your dog/s roam around freely. Already spoke about coming back to stay with my partner as it was that good!

We stayed for a long weekend and wish we booked longer! We couldn’t fault anything! The property itself was beautiful, very clean and provided us with everything we needed! The views were perfect too! The secure garden was perfect for our pup - was so lovely to let him run around and not have to worry! We will be booking again!

Short break

Lovely place very peaceful. The dogs loved running around in the enclosed garden. Unfortunately the weather was against us during our stay which made it difficult to enjoy outside time and the hut was a lot smaller than we expected.

Perfect

We really loved it here! Was hard to leave this beautiful place. The hut was super cosy and clean. It had everything you needed and more. Microwave, toaster, minifridge, plates, glasses, cutlery, tv, towels,... . The first night the water from the shower was a bit hot, but the next day it was fixed already. Also used the hot tub, was lovely and clean, easy to use. We loved how the bed was positioned in the hut. Definitely value for money!!

Secluded and perfect

I needed a space to reset- it was stunning, not overcrowded. Loved the space and the hot tub. The enclosed garden is perfect for dogs or younger kids- I didn’t need to worry. There’s a little village near by (5 mins drive) that has grocery shops and a lovely little butchers and antique store but it’s small. I wanted secluded and peaceful so it was perfect.

Fantastic place to stay!!

We’ve just returned from a wonderful two-night stay at Marches Way and couldn’t be more pleased. The views were absolutely breathtaking — it was such a treat to watch the red kites soaring overhead and the Highland cows grazing in the field opposite. The large garden space was a real highlight, especially for our dog who loved running freely in the secure outdoor area. We also really enjoyed watching the farmers herding sheep into the nearby fields — a lovely rural touch. Inside, the property was cosy, clean, and beautifully decorated, with all the facilities easy to use — including the hot tub, which was a fantastic bonus. Our only small criticism would be the outdoor metal seating, which was a bit uncomfortable, rusted, and appeared quite worn. Since we were lucky with the weather and wanted to spend time outside, more comfortable outdoor seating would really enhance the experience. Overall, a peaceful, scenic getaway with lots of charm — we’d definitely recommend it and we look forward to staying here again!!

Another great stay

This was our second stay at marches way, and once again it was an fantastic break away, they had made some pleasant changes to the shepherds hut, including a rope border around the decking, smaller mesh on the gate across the green, which was especially good for our two little dogs, and also some good clear instructions for the hot tub, which was lovely and hot upon arrival and stayed that way through out the entire holiday. Also a special thanks for accommodating our early checking request and late check out. We will definitely be back again, and would highly recommend to anyone that appreciate the countryside and farm views, not forgetting the beautiful clear night sky filled with more stars than I care to count. Thank you so much Gemma for yet another wonderful holiday stay.
