Beautiful Location and a Unique Stay

We came to stay at Foxes View to celebrate my friend's 40th Birthday. Safe to say we were blown away by the accommodation and the view! The perfect quirky place to stay with the added bonus of Highland Cows. We had a slight issue with the jacuzzi on the first night, but the owners were really helpful and quick to sort it out. Great location, very close to the beautiful Elan Valley. We'll definitely be back!

Family Break

Perfect relaxing stay, amazing location away from it all Only slight negative was that the sofa could have been a bit more comfortable but didn't distract from our stay. Already looking to come back.

Idyllic stay

We have just returned from an amazing three night stay at Foxes View . The views as you drive to your property are truly amazing . The property itself is fantastic with fabulous views from all windows especially the bedroom . Waking up each morning was a pleasure . The Hobbit House is well equipped for a self catering stay . I would definitely recommend a stay here and we can’t wait to return .

Foxes View

This was a fantastic place for our little getaway. The property was really nice and had everything we needed. The kids loved it as it looked like a hobbit house……so did we, our own little slice of the shire. The views are stunning and it’s so peaceful, spent the evenings around the fire pit toasting marshmallows and star gazing. Lovely family break and we’ll definitely be back.

Foxes View

Foxes View in my opinion has the best view and privacy of the site, the rooms are spacious and clean. The hot tub was a great win with the kids. Close to the village for any food and great take outs. Communication was good with the Company. Highly recommend.

The views wow

Foxes view was clean and warm views were 10/10 wow But…Paid to check in early (2pm) and after arriving 1 hour early after travelling for a couple of hours with a disabled child received a phone call telling me to leave the property and return in a hour nothing was different when we returned so I didn’t see the problem in going in 1 hour early the seating area was so uncomfortable I’ve sat on comfier benches and the beds were about the same woke everyday with aches and pains.. also needs a little maintenance brick work etc Seating and beds can be changed so hopefully will make it a more relaxing experience

Stunning Views

Our three night stay here was just perfect! Cute accommodation with spectacular views - we stayed in Foxes View which was lovely and cosy. My only negative is the seating in the communal area - not relaxing at all due to them being benches with a plastic cushion - unable to get comfy on them! My daughter stayed in a newer one (Burrows View) which was much more updated and modern. Five minute drive to the little high street which has everything you need - pubs - co-op and really nice restaurant! Overall - a lovely stay, would return and recommend!

Beautiful stay at Foxes View

We had a wonderful stay as a couple with a dog. The place is perfectly located and well equipped. So quirky and novel. The beds are comfy and shower is good. We enjoyed the hot tub, just wish we’d bought kindling for the fire pit! Word of wisdom- bring cash for takeaways! We thought we’d be able to order something via justeat - struggled with this and then the takeaways on the email seem to be cash on delivery only. We’d already had a drink by this point so missed out on dinner, our fault for not thinking of this but will know for next time. Only slight criticism, like others have mentioned, is the sofa is practical but not very comfy for evening chill. This won’t stop us returning though, and we’ve just booked again for February, to bring our son and mother along to see this gorgeous part of Wales

A stay at Foxes View

We looked forward to our stay at Foxes View. We arrived in stormy weather but the accommodation was warm and comfortable. The first night we used the hot tub and the lighting by the bedroom door and round the hot tub was not working. We advised the hosts, who said they would sort. On second night, still no lights working and there were so many chemicals in hot tub we could not use, our eyes were streaming and we were worried it was dangerous. On leaving mentioned the problems to hosts, who quite frankly did not seem too bothered that this had ruined our stay here! We picked the property as it had a hot tub. SO DISAPPOINTING
