We stayed for 7 days on this beautiful chalet, surrounded by trees, feeding birds and squirrels on the decking overlooking the pond, The dog was allowed in most of the fields as the cattle and sheep has been brought in for the winter, and as the darkness arrived we lit the wood burner every evening. This is a good base for exploring mid Wales. WeRead more thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Hide

This truly is a wonderful place to stay. The location is stunning, in peaceful surroundings, and the lodge itself beautiful, cosy and well equipped. One of the most relaxing places we have stayed in a long time. Great for dogs (especially nervous ones!), with quiet walks right from the front door. Thank you to Helen, for such a lovely stay.

If you are looking for some rural peace and quiet then this is the cottage for you. It is very generously sized and really well equipped and when the new porch is finished it will be brilliant for muddy boots and dogs. This property is on our short list of cottages we would return to

Perfect. The views from Derw Lodge are phenomenal. It's on a working farm so there were views of cows and sheep in fields right next to the lodge. A DVD player is provided though with a list of DVDs available from the hosts. The upstairs mezzanine has its own small living area which was perfect for our teen, they had their own 'flat' but were stillRead more there just above the main living room. There are plenty of walks direct from the farm, our dog came home very tired from all the walking! It's ideally located for any other site seeing that you may want to do. Log burner for those cooler nights as well. Everything was provided and the washer/dryer was invaluable for the weather we had when we stayed. I'd highly recommend it Hide

The Lodge is in a wonderful location and extremely comfortable. The balcony is perfect for sunny breakfasts listening to the birds, and the deck catches the afternoon and evening sun. We very much enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning next year.
