The accommodation

The luxury lodge is beautifully finished with excellent facilities.

Open-plan living - the indoor living space is light, airy and spacious with vaulted ceiling and two double French doors. The kitchen boasts a wide range of equipment, including Induction hob, extraction hood, main oven, combination microwave oven, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine, Nespresso coffee machine, 4 slice toaster, kettle and comprehensive range of utensils, including a multi-tool stick blender. The dining area has generous seating for 6. This lovely furniture is made from recycled/reclaimed materials. There is also a wine rack, wine fridge and 2 seater breakfast bar. The lounge has two 2 seater sofas and 2 reclinable armchairs. The focal point is the 50 inch HD, 4K Smart TV where you can choose from over 100 satellite channels with recording facilities. The TV has Alexa built in and Bluetooth to connect your devices to play music. There is also a DVD/CD player for films and music. The lodge has its own dedicated Wi-Fi.

Eco-friendly - the central heating and hot water are provided through a state-of-the-art, efficient electric combi boiler, meaning fossil fuels are not consumed by the lodge. The barbecue is also electric. The induction hob is more energy efficient than the standard equivalents. Luxury showers have been installed to use less energy than a bath. Most cleaning agents, soaps and detergents provided are eco-friendly.

Outdoor living - the large main decking area is secluded and surrounded by nature and often by wildlife. There is a two-seater "egg" chair facing the view up the valley, over the field. The dining table has 4 chairs and 4 stools, all with cushions. The stools can double up as occasional tables. When the sunshine fades, the solar powered post lights automatically illuminate to add a cosy atmosphere to the outdoor space and with the outdoor blankets, you can extend your outdoor living time well into the evening.

We have a trail camera, which captures overnight wildlife on short videos. You view these on you phone using an app. You can download them to take with you. Instructions are in the guestbook.

Guest comments

5* Google Review 23rd August 2023:

The lodge is brand new and has everything you need, the beds are very comfortable and the setting is so peaceful. The owners have thought of everything you could need for a stay and I recommend anyone thinking of booking to do it.

The local town of Builth Wells is only a few minutes drive away and the scenery around the wider area is beautiful.

We would happily return again knowing now just how good this lodge is. The owners were so helpful and I'm just pleased we found it when looking for a last minute get away.

Travel info

Option 1: Set Satnav to LD2 3HH. Most of them get you to the park entrance.

From the park entrance, proceed down the drive and take the first left. The lodge is the first one on your left. Look out for the slate sign headed "Field View" Keep left and park in the lodge's own spaces in front of the double French doors.

Option 2: Find your own way to Builth Wells town centre one way system and make your way up the high street. At the top of the rise, the road takes a sharp right, after about 100 yards keep left at the bollard. Immediately turn left into Hospital Road. After about 300 yards the road becomes a lane. Keep going for about a mile and at the top of the hill the park entrance is clearly marked on your right. Follow instructions above to get to the lodge.
