If you are looking for a romantic break away then Mayflower is perfect for this, a beautiful shepherd’s hut with a wood burner, private hot tub and own garden. Relax in the hot tub after a busy day exploring and watch the shooting stars over the dark skies. Mayflower is in St Harmon, a short drive from the market town of Rhayader, ideal for those looking to explore this fabulous area. Gilfach Nature Reserve is within short walking distance from the property and offers moorland, woodland, rivers and waterfalls.
There is plenty to do in this area and a visit to the Elan Valley is a must, as the scenery is just simply stunning, with forested areas, waterfalls and Victorian dams, great for walkers, cyclists and bikers. The Red Kite feeding and rehabilitation centre is not far from the property, and the sheep dogs put on a great show moving the cattle and sheep from the fields before feeding starts. The market town of Rhayader has plenty of restaurants and coffee shops, local amenities and stores.
For those wanting to travel further afield, then the market town of Builth Wells is 16 miles away and home to the Royal Welsh Showground, which hosts multiple events throughout the year. The spa town of Llandrindod Wells is 14 miles from the property and hosts a great golf course and lots of open country parks. The Brecon Beacons National Park is 44 miles for those more adventurous, where a day climbing Pen Y Fan is a must with its panoramic views.

Stayed for a long weekend away and had a wonderful stay. Wonderful idilic location, it is a little far from any ammenities but there is a mini on site shop for basics. Reasonable drive away from local sites and places of interest. Cabin itself was in great condition, just a lot of flies to deal with at this time of year but even bug spray was provided! (Sorry for setting the smoke alarm off with it)

Very beautiful cabin, If you are a large person of 6'2" you will find it very snug but still the location and general feel will make up for it. We spend most of our time in the hot tub and watching the stars.If we were to book again we will defiantly be booking on of the cabins that has a dog enclosure/fence as this was the only thing missing for us.
