Tegfan Barn Reviews

This break was fantastic and well needed. The barn is beautiful inside and out. The views by day are stunning from sunrise to dusk. The night time hot tub stargazing was something else. Seeing planets and stars that I wouldnt see where I live. Will def be visiting again as so much still to see around there.
Caragh
We had a fabulous stay for our one year anniversary, the space was lovely. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and were very happy with the location and amenities inside the property.
Genuinely perfect converted barn, place was immaculate, kitchen had all the utensils you would need for a stay. Thank you again for being such wonderful hosts.
Lovely place to stay. We had so much fun. Lovely location and beautiful views.
Spotlessly clean, such a beautiful little cottage
Amazing Accommodation, perfect for relaxing. The hot tub was an experience and a half , clean, perfect temperature on arrival. Didnt need to contact the owners as everthing was in place. The only thing was ceiling as entering bedroom is abit low. But get used to it after a few bangs
Fabulous cosy little place with good facilities. Ideal location with Rhayader just 10 minutes away by car with a good selection of pubs. Watching the Red Kites circle overhead from the hot tub was a real treat.
Rowena
Absolutely love both of your cottages, so well thought out and well stocked. The only recommendation I would make is that the fire rope on the indoor stove could do with being a grade thicker as it lets in so much air that the fire burns too fiercely and quickly. Other than that I cant wait for our next stay. Absolutely great hosts and a wonderful place. Thanks so much
Jayden
Absolutely lovely, will 100 be back thank you ! !!
We had such an incredible stay at Tegfan Barn. Everything was so well thought out, the kitchen was stocked with anything you could possibly need, there was a delightful welcome pack of goodies waiting for us when we arrived and a selection of board games too we could use too. The hot tub was such a great feature, it was so lovely to be able to come back after a long day of exploring places like Elan Valley and Hafren Forest, and relax in there under the stars! We honestly couldnt have asked for a better place to stay! Would highly recommend to anyone to stay here and we hope to be back!! Thank you Leanne and Graham
Andrew

Richard
The property felt very homely, we loved the hot tub and the view. The privacy was something we were looking for. The location provided a perfect base for exploring the Gilfach Nature Reserve as well as the coast. We would highly recommend this for a romantic break and hope to come back one day.
This is a hidden gem! Amazing holiday home. Loved the hot tub, looking out to the views & the sky at night breath taking ! Well positioned to the Elon Valley, fabulous scenery , highly recommended!
Tegan barn was a cosy place to stay. It is nestled in amongst beautiful welsh mountains and the views from the hot tub are amazing. Red kites were nesting in nearby trees and would often circle overhead. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen well sticked with all the essential utensils. The 2 smart TVs were an added bonus and we loved the hot tub. All in all a great place to stay
The property was well maintained, tastefully decorated, comfortable and a pleasure to stay at. We couldnt have asked for anything more and we will definitely be returning in the future for another stay.
Gareth

What a little gem of a place. We had an absolutely wonderful break here last week. The property was even better than the pictures show, clean and offered everything required. Cosy but not cramped, welcoming and the hot tub is amazing! Perfectly situated for a week of fun. Can't wait to return
Kieran
I booked this property as a last weekend away with the family before I deployed overseas with a Army. The property is beautifully decorated and very clean, a cosy little gem in the centre of Wales. On arrival, there were cupcakes, refreshments and milk in the fridge, which was a lovely touch.
Annabelle
The barn was absolutely fantastic and in the perfect location. It had everything we needed for a mini break away. Thank you so much for the welcome treats too they went down a storm!
A perfect place to relax. The barn space is so thoughtfully put together and well equipped and makes for a wonderful base to visit the local area which is also beautiful.
Tegfan barn was amazing. Even nicer than it looked online. When we arrived the lemonade and cupcakes were such a lovely touch. The place was so clean we wondered if we were the first to stay! The hot tub was immaculate and private and the listing does not do the views justice.
Beautifully decorated barn. When you walk in it smelt lovely and clean. Everything you would need has been thought of and the little touches like milk and tea and coffee was lovely. Hot tub was amazing. A little relaxing birthday break away.
Absolutely first rate. Really easy to find in a superb location, just under 5 miles from Rhayder. The views from the garden are beautiful where you can sit and watch nature go by, especially the red kites swooping down. Inside is beautiful decorated with everything you could wish for including a wood burning fire, and even a 2nd TV to watch in bed. The property was spotlessly clean throughout. The hot tub is simply the best for relaxing and star gazing, the night sky is incredible. There is also a large BBQ and fire pit for you to use The owners are incredibly friendly and welcoming and have done an amazing job with the property. The nearby Elan Valley is stunning with some of the best scenery I have ever seen. Book now!
Charlotte
Great holiday cottage and a beautiful location. Would definitely recommend. We need to go back to do all of the things we ran out of time to do!
The property was clean and smelt lovely as we walked through the door. There is everything you need just as you would have everything at home. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. We would recommend this property to our friends and family and would consider staying there again.
Courtney
Amazing property! The views were stunning and the hot tub made it. Couldnt fault anything at all. Thankyou so much.
Such a lovely place to stay, very clean barn with good facilities. Kitchen fully equipped and everything worked well. Bathroom small but all works, heated towel rail was a great fit for after using hot tub. Specifically chose this accommodation so it would be comfortable for my over 6ft partner and everything was perfect for him. Hot tub was lovely and great view over the fields, we saw lots of red kites and swifts which just made our trip. Met one of the owners and he was so lovely! We had just a fantastic time and feel well relaxed! We will definitely be back!
Beautiful barn conversion, small but it has everything you need for a relaxing break. Hot tub was excellent. There are views all around and it is quiet and secluded so you feel away from it all.
Claudia
Absolutely amazing place,we loved each second of our stay, the hot tub is so relaxing and the cottage is so nice and comfy. Everything was perfect, we will definitely coming back.
Lorraine
Lovely stay in a lovely part of Wales x
Our break lived way beyond our expectations. The barn is absolutely stunning, beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. Weve enjoyed every minute, more than we could ever imagine. Cozy evenings in with the log burner and relaxing in the hot tub. The welcome pack was also greatly appreciated Such a lovely touch. Thank you so much and we look forward to our return visit xx
Perfect peaceful property Spotlessly clean and the hot tub was a lovely treat We would definitely stay again
