Blue Lins River Barn was the ultimate get away cottage. There was a very generous welcome pack waiting in the spotlessly clean large open plan accommodation.

There are lots of walks straight from the doorstep and Read morethe gorgeous Eden valley is only 35 minutes away Hide
Annette
Beautiful house with stunning hot tub plenty of walks for man and dog and such freedom for children we took collapsible goal cricket etc. Newtown is a lovely place everything you needed there and a beautiful park with lots there for children. So much to see in surrounding area but drive involved in a lot of sightseeing and activities but so worth Read moreit! Hide
Zoe
Stunning cottage, surpassed expectations. The views were beautiful, especially cute to have sheep neighbours in the surrounding fields. Hosts were amazing and so helpful. Would highly recommend staying here.
Vikki
We had a wonderful stay at Blue Lins River Barn, thank you! It has everything you can need and more. When first walking in, it has the wow factor with all the space, complimented by a lovely welcome basket. The hot tub is a brilliant size, as is the garden (great to stretch our dog's legs!), and the bedrooms too. Great to all be en-suites and have Read moresmart TVs. The kitchen space is ample, with loads of cupboard space. Family of 5 (8, 4, 2) plus puppy (17 weeks) and flying visit from grandparents Hide

It was nice and clean, well equipped and care and thought had gone into it being used for holiday let. The owners were very friendly and on hand to sort out any problems swiftly that arose during our stay and very kindly left us some welcome goodies toRead more start our holiday. Hide
Michael
The barn was lovely in a beautiful location, with pretty much everything we needed. The owners were friendly and helpful. The barn was comfortable, and the hot tub was great. There were a variety of walks on the farm, and in the surrounding areas, which we and the dogs enjoyed. The garden was of a really good size, and enclosed so dogs and sheep do n't mingle! One word of advice - if using satnav/Google maps, pinpoint the exact location (not postcode), as postcode took us to the wrong place.
Elle
The accommodation was amazing, everything we needed was there. Hot tub was great, as was the garden for the dogs. Pubs are a drive away as the area is secluded and quiet ... also a plus point!
Charlotte
Lovely big barn with large hot tub which is welcome after a walk. Fabulous welsh countryside but need a car to get anywhere- Newtown is nearest at 20 minutes away. Big secure garden for the dog. Overall nice holiday but there could be a few tweaks to make the experience even better with some additional equipment and attention to detail.
Michael
Good location Clean Good facilities Hosts on hand if required Excellent property for our two dogs with a lovely walk right outside the front gate. The family thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. Would definitely recommend to others wanting to visit and explore mid Wales.
Tendai
Great choice and absolutely amazing. If your looking a secluded and comfortable stay definitely a must x
Lesley
Beautiful spacious barn with everything needed for a comfortable stay plenty of walks and castles in the surrounding areas
Cerys
The barn is spacious and well equipped. Everything we needed was there and more! Couldnt fault it at all. It was so big we (being cold bloody) thought it would be cold and turned all the radiators upstairs up - dont be like us, we baked the first night. We then promptly turned them all back down and were toasty warm all week!! You do need a car to explore the wider surroundings but that may have just been us wanting to see the sites! Cant wait to go back
Catherine
Lovely accommodation with ample parking. Perfect location if you want to get away from everything and explore the countryside. The hot tub is especially good and a large enclosed garden for any furry members of the family. We had a lovely week away with friends.
Hayley
Lovely house, great facilities - perfect for larger families or groups. Location is great if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle, very quiet and peaceful.
Angela
Excellent well equipped comfortable large barn conversion located in beautiful countryside on a working farm. Everything you need for a peaceful and relaxing break away from the stress of town and city life. Great base to explore mid Wales. Owner checked we were OK and was available for any advice if needed, very responsive if you asked for anythin g. We couldn't find a washing line, this is newly available property so didn't yet have a line so mentioned and as if by magic a new line appeared.

We loved our stay here at Blue Lins. It was a great space for a large group and we loved that the hot tub was so spacious. It had everything we needed at the cottage including a dryer which came in handy for drying towels and bathers after the hot tub. Beds were really comfortable and great to have a bathroom in each room. Huge kitchen which was gr eat for preparing a communal meal. Will definitely be staying here again!
Beckie
Eight of us spent February half term week in this lovely property. Very spacious, clean and homely. All of us loved being in the large hot tub, that was a great bonus. Our dog also really enjoyed being in the barn and running around the large enclosed garden. The host was extremely accommodating, even decorating the barn with banners and balloons f or my partners birthday. Graham was very helpful giving us recommendations of places to go and was very quick to respond if we had any questions.
