Dryw Bach Glamping

Wow, what an amazing little place to stay!

A week prior, we received an email with a little information document attached, which was good as it gave an idea of what was there and what we could need to take.

It was such a cosy little cabin to stay in but had exactly what we wanted. The little touches on arrival, such as the flowers and fresh eggs were lovely.

We booked this because was wanted to get away for a few nights, away from everyone and thing. The cabin is in the middle of nowhere, so no being disturbed. No phone signal was a bonus for us, so that we weren't bothered by work calls!
That said, it was only 10 minutes from the nearest town, which had the necessary shops for food etc. The Brecon Beacons are nearby and made for a lovely day out.

The kitchen was fairly well stocked with cutlery, crockery etc. Definitely handy to have a fridge. Gas hob was easy to use and made it easy to do breakfast. In fact that only thing that we wanted but did not have was a toaster (but that may well just be us and not something that everyone wants).

When we did not want to go out exploring, we sat on the balcony and read books, all the while watching the phenomenal number of birds that were attracted to the wildlife garden and pond (including a woodpecker, which neither of us had seen before).

The log burner was a nice addition, although we did not use it (we did consider using it one evening, but we had no idea how to use a log burner so decided it was safest to not use it - perhaps instructions could be left in the cabin about this, or they could be added to the information that was emailed out?)

Contactless check-in/out was good (a much as we would have liked to have said hi to the owners) and meant that we could arrive/leave at the time that suited us.

We would not hesitate to return here and are already looking at out calendars to book again!

The jury is out on the eco-toilet. Whilst the idea and environmental motivation are excellent, we are not sure just how practical it is, and found that is started to smell a little after a day or so. It was serviceable but not what we had expected at all.
That said, no other complaints whatsoever.

Beautiful scenery, some added extras not mentioned on the booking such as bbq equipment

The hut was super clean when we arrived, in a spot away from the main house with its own wild garden and pond. It was in a peaceful area so no other people just the sound of nature and farm animals which is just what we wanted. A 15 minute walk to the pub which serves beautiful food.

Absolutely every aspect of this is stunning...loads of nearby things to do..a glass of wine by the log burner in the evening.

Loved our stay and will definitely be back... everything you need and more.

A great escape to a peaceful place was just what we needed.

And the black cat we nicknamed "nipper" is gorgeous

Thanks for an excellent holiday

Upon arrival, there was a contactless check in, but Donna made sure we were comfortable and to ask if we needed anything. The cabin was everything and more, decorated with little birds and very cosy - it had everything you would need for your stay and more (fresh eggs and milk!). The constant stream of birds outside the door was amazing to sit and watch from your bed. Also, the farmyard symphony of cows, sheep and cockerels was comforting alongside the countryside silence.
