Charming old cottage - perfectly peaceful

We enjoyed our stay, the cottage is very spacious, full of character and has everything needed for a relaxing stay. The grounds and setting are gorgeous, our dog loved playing in the very large secure garden and enjoyed lovely walks in the surrounding area. The welcome pack was very much appreciated and Angelica was a very attentive host.

An absolute gem of a property in the Welsh countryside. A great location (although local roads can be a bit dodgy!). The house has everything you need for a short break, or longer, and the host is extremely helpful and communication was perfect, ensuring everything was ok for us. There is plenty to do in the local area and we did quite a bit of exploring. The host recommended the local pub/restaurant and what a great suggestion as the food was excellent. There is a fire pit in the garden and it was nice to sit around the fire at night chatting. Highly recommend this property if you are looking for somewhere to stay in the area and we look forward to revisiting.

The house is large, the bedrooms are large and cosy. It is a peaceful location, very secluded. The children and dog enjoyed the secure grounds, and firepit. The kids enjoyed the acess to Sky TV and youtube. The weather was hot, but the house remained cool and comfortable. The host rang us on arrival to ensure that we were happy, which was a very nice touch, and made us feel very welcome. The local pub (Radnorshire Arms) does good quality reasonably priced food, and specials on a Tuesday, its gets busy, you need to book.

Bought mum to Wales to visit her friend, well worth the half hour drive to Newtown each day as no need to go anywhere else. Enough grounds to exercise dogs and nothing else to do but relax and take in the stunning views.

Our stay at Cefn Pawl

We enjoyed our stay at Cefn Pawl. The location is great, quiet and peaceful. The cottage is rustic but with mod cons. The WiFi is good too. Angelika was very helpful in finding us a BBQ to use, which along with the garden firepit made for a good family evening.

Family holiday

I loved this house - felt like it has withstood many a storm and will last for many more. It had a very peaceful feel to it - lovely sized rooms which were comfortable and clean yet characterful. The location is fantastic - especially if you are looking for somewhere to get away from it all and to enjoy walks from your doorstep.

Cosy rural retreat

We stayed over Christmas and enjoyed our stay here a lot. Loved the quirky furniture, eclectic art and open fire.. We saw a fox cub and heard owls. The sunrise was breathtaking. The kitchen has everything you could need. We appreciated the heating being on as we arrived on a chilly late afternoon. The host is lovely and can recommend this place whole heartedly.

About the host

Hosted by Angelika Bradley-Zenz

Host profile image
I am a retired teacher, living in Gloucestershire with my husband. I grew up in Germany but am now totally anglicized . I speak German fluently, French reasonably well and Italian like a waiter.

Why they chose this property

The cottage used to be our family holiday cottage . After my retirement we refurbished it completely to turn it into holiday rental.

The cottage is in a lovely natural location and is ideal for relaxing, walking, bird watching, star gazing and exploring the sites of Wales. Cefn Pawl is very popular with guests with many returning again and again .

What makes this property unique

If you want to be close to nature and and love tranquillity, this cottage is perfect. The secluded garden is a great space for kids to play in. And for the whole family there is a friendly pub which serves delicious food in the nearby village.
