Cae Llwyn - Woodland Escape

Photo: Cae Llwyn Lodges

Cae Llwyn is a two-bedroom lodge sleeping six near Rhayader in Powys, set among woodland with countryside views. Everything you need for self-catering is already here: heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wifi are included, so you arrive to a property ready to use. The kitchen is fully fitted with a gas cooker, microwave and fridge-freezer for preparing meals, while a woodburner and sofa bed in the open-plan living area provide warmth and extra sleeping space if needed.

The ground floor has one double bedroom and a shower room, while the second double bedroom is located in a galleried mezzanine space above the living area. Outside, a private hot tub sits on the decked terrace—large enough for all six guests—with garden furniture, a firepit, and parking for two cars. The lodge is non-smoking. Caban Dulas lies nearby if you're exploring the area. No hen or stag parties.

The Otter was great to stay in just a few things really. SOFA was very itchy to sit on and I have Lymphedema in my leg and it bothered my leg.alot. Also No lamps in the bedroom WHICH I am confused by. Hot tub was great and I did get in touch with you and straight away you brought the temp down abit and it was much better. Thank you so much for sorting that out

This is our 6th time visiting Cae Llwyn, and all times have stayed at the Fawns Rest lodge! Our visits begun in June 2024, then Sep, January 2025, May 25, June 25 & now June 2026! 😊 we have had some of the bestest memories here in Mid Wales, and travelling out, with this time being extra special, as we are pregnant and my partner proposed to me at the Craig Goch Dam in the Elan Valley! On which particular day, the bigger dams were overflowing!! Breathtaking! (massively recommend visiting Elan Valley). Claire is so lovely, and has always been so accommodating. I have contacted her a couple of times pre arrival regarding birthday balloons and banners to be ready in the lodge for our arrival, she has always been great at responding, brilliant communication. The staff around are lovely and friendly. Lodge is always pristine, so comfortable, peaceful & cosy. The hot tub has always been an amazing touch, especially at night time, on a clear night (the stars are unreal), or an early sunrise 🥰 surrounded by the incredible views. We love the lodge so much, hence why we've always come back to the same one! We love the very cute neighbours 🐑 for welcoming us in to their home! Absolutely stunning location, it really is just the best. We knew this time would be cherished as we don't know yet when we will be able to return, but we will be back in the future, with an additional guest! Thank you for genuinely giving us some of the bestest moments of our lives. Wales will always be our special place, and it really did all begin with finding this little gem, Cae Llwyn Lodges ❤️

My partner and I stayed in the Fox Den for 3 nights recently. The cabin was small but cosy and had everything we needed to enjoy our time. The surroundings were stunning and the lambs in the immediate fields on the property were a joy to watch. It was an excellent base for exploring the local area including Rhayader the Elan Valley. The owners were friendly and very helpful throughout booking process and the stay, where they were on hand to answer any questions.
