Vacation rentals with lake access in Powys

I stayed here for my 30th birthday, with 23 of my best friends and family. From the very start Ali was very responsive to all questions. The weekend stay genuinely couldn’t have been better. The rooms were big and comfy. Each one having its own en-suit. The views were beautiful and the layout of the house was exactly what we wanted. Throughout the stay Ali was beyond kind and helpful. Can not recommend this place enough. I would give it 6 stars if I could. Thank you 🤩

Nami was a wonderful host. She accommodated our (indoor) cats upfront and when we added on my sister and brother-in-law she was super quick to respond and said it was no problem at all. The neighbourhood was really quite and super close by our family members, who were able to come over Christmas morning briefly before we all headed out to the main event. We would definitely stay here again in future.

A beautiful place, exceeded our expectations. We booked in order to go to the Hay festival, but were so glad we made time to explore around Treberydd, amazing house and garden and easy access to footpaths, lake and pretty church. Hafod has everything we needed, plus comfy beds and tasteful decor Lambs, goats and alpacas a bonus! Sally and Hugh are great hosts, would definitely recommend.

Our trip comprised of 4 adults and 2 reactive dogs. We loved how we could walk a few yards to get to a bridle path to let them off the lead, or if we wanted to we could walk a bit further to the field where the trees are planted. This was a great place to be able to let them out and have a good run around and not meet anyone. The house was easy to get to once we found our bearings. If you miss the turn off.... reverse and go back otherwise you end going up a farm track that has no passing point! The house was very comfortable, spacious and warm. We went to lake vrymy, waterfalls, chirk, Whittington Castle, llangollen, pontysciliate aquaduct. All were within about 40 minute drive. This house is in farm country so don't expect pavements, but you can walk on the verges and there's minimal traffic. I think I counted seeing a total of 5 cars in the 4 days we were there. There are no shops or pubs in easy walking distance but within easy reach by car.

Lovely stay in the Smithy! The owner created a wonderful place with many original features, and the accommodation was spotless clean. Dominique and her family are kind hosts, very helpful and reachable if needed. The market town Llanidloes is just a five minutes drive away, where one can find a superb bakery and shop for local products. All in all, a very good position to explore Mid-Wales and the bordering regions. Peaceful and calm, a truly beautiful place. Don't forget to book a tour at the Welsh Mountain Cider!

Our stay at the barn was wonderful. The home is spotless and has everything we needed. Beautiful views from the garden and lovely neighbours with an equally lovely dog! Sally is a fab host who came and introduced herself and provided lots of info on the area and local recommendations. Would recommend to anyone seeking a rural getaway in a beautiful location. Thank you Sally. X

I loved everything about this place, the bed was very comfy and the location was perfect. The bath and shower are wonderful and so is the soap and shower gel and linens available. I loved the eco friendly toilet paper too. Two points to note: there was no chopping board I could see? Fortunately most of my food was already prepared so it was not a big deal. And I believe it is the hot water tank that makes a noise intermittently? So, if you're a light sleeper like me, you'll need ear plugs despite being in very quiet and peaceful countryside. I loved my stay here it was very special and I would stay again when visiting the brecons!

we had ana amazing stay at this house. Only issue we had on arrival was there were alot of flies (but the house is on a working farm so I suppose it is to be expected) we did find some fly deterants in the draw which eventually got rid of most of them. The hot tub was great but does take a while to get to the right temperature so would advise filling and lighting as soon as you arrive. Would definatley return x

My wife and I stayed here for a long weekend while she took part in the Big Bala Swim. Nigel's place was absolutely perfect for what we needed with more than enough room for the two of us. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was lovely to have a bath at the end of the day! The lake is beautiful and the shore is only a 5 minute walk away. All in all we loved our time here and would definitely recommend it to anyone else.

Second time staying at Emma’s lovely cottage and this trip was just as amazing as the first No doubt I’ll be back again soon Must see if you like quiet little villages in the middle of the countryside

Cliff, thank you so much, what a beautiful place. You were so incredibly helpful from the moment I made my enquiry to the moment we left. We will be back again. Highly recommended! House was so incredibly clean and tidy and extremely well equipped, we had a wonderful time. Many thanks

We recently stayed at Lake View Cottage and had a truly relaxing experience. The surroundings were absolutely beautiful, with stunning views of the lake and peaceful, natural scenery all around. The cottage had a lovely sense of privacy, making it feel like our own little retreat. The swimming pool was a big hit, especially with the kids—they had a blast! It was the perfect mix of comfort and tranquility. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy quality time with family.

What a fantastic gem. The house was lovely, light and spacious with the most amazing views. Just some of the facilities we made use of were the hot tub (very clean), fire pit, bbq and also the herb garden came in useful too. Beti was a great host and very welcoming, ensuring all ages were catered for. We would 100% recommend and would definitely want to come back.

We had a lovely stay and the cottage and location were perfect. The cottage was well equipped, comfortable and in beautiful surroundings. Not far from Oswestry or Welshpool, there was lots to explore locally and as well as a bit further into Wales. Brilliant place and would highly reccomend it for a getaway.

We had an amazing stay with our LO at the cottage. The steam railway is 4 min away on foot as well as the lake is in very close proximity. The host is lovely and very responsive. It is so quiet at night, we slept like logs!

Quintessential Welesh countryside home. Ideal spot to commute around Wales. Would thoroughly recommend for medium sized groups. Lots to explore around here home as well + convenient BBQing
