About Bechan Retreats
Fancy seeing endangered red kites flying overhead from their nesting sites in the woods, or hearing the hypnotic hoot of owls hunting in the darkness? Then make straight for the peaceful hideaways at Bechan Retreats, only 10 minutes' drive from the handy shops and restaurants of Newtown in Powys. These luxury wooden lodges occupy a spectacular hidden Welsh valley, with views over green fields, ancient woodland and grazing farm animals that wander the surrounding countryside.
Each centrally heated lodge is designed to the highest specs, with well-equipped kitchens, comfy sofas and ensuite bathrooms boasting both shower and bath. Guests consistently praise how spotless everything is, along with thoughtful touches like welcome packs (including fizz), eco-friendly toiletries and Smart TVs. The comfortable beds and relaxing hot tubs earn particular mentions, though with just a handful of lodges on site, you'll need to book well ahead.
Pure relaxation comes easily here, with only birds and wildlife for company. Explore the Mid Wales coast and countryside – watch for dolphins off Cardigan Bay, cycle country lanes, visit Eryri National Park – or simply soak up the views from your private hot tub or balcony.

What visitors say
Just back from a brilliant couple of nights. Have done a few cabin/hot tub on a farm type things in the past but this was the best by far. Lovely little cabin (we stayed in Kingfisher) in absolutely stunning surroundings. Lovely little farm to look round, great wildlife spotting and the jets on the hot tub were just the ticket for my bad back. Already booked for another trip in a different cabin in Autumn while we were there! Hosts are charming, as is Sam the farm dog. Montgomery and its castle are a short drive away for a lovely lunch and look around. Really really beautiful stay. Thank you, and can’t wait to come back in October!

We stayed at Kites Nest lodge over the bank holiday weekend and had an amazing time. The lodge is in a wonderful, peaceful location with fantastic views. It was clean and cosy on arrival, comfortable, modern and beautifully furnished and we had everything we needed. We loved all the animals, sheep, horses and cows in the surrounding fields, the sheepdog, the visiting peacock and his peahen and mother duck with her baby ducklings on the little stream. The hot tub was fantastic. We very much enjoyed cycling along the Montgomery canal and on National Cycle Route 81. A brilliant holiday in all and we hope to come back one day. Thank you so much.

This is 5☆ All day. We are just back from a week in The Kingfisher Cabin. Ever since I seen it on Four in a Bed I've been dying to stay. Its perfect. Super clean tidy and everything you need. The horses and animals on the farm are an added bonus and the views are amazing. I want to live there. Already planning our return. Thank you for making us so welcome. Great Team See you soon Nikki Dave and Simba 🐾

Absolutely amazing stay at Bechan Retreats. Will definitely be recommending to family and friends. I could tell that the hosts really take pride in their business and want people to thoroughly enjoy their stay! Cabin had everything we needed and was spotless, hosts were friendly and attentive and we just felt peace throughout our entire stay. The hot tub was amazing and with 0 light pollution in the area, the amount of stars you can see on a clear night is incredible! It is a great area for bird watching too ☺️ The hosts (with permission) allowed us to take a walk around the farm and it was so lovely to meet all the animals with the help of a lovely tour guide by the farm dog. Overall we had a 10/10 stay and we will definitely be returning. Thank you again x
