Great relaxing stay

Family of 3 holiday. Honeybee had everything we required. Really loved the special touch of a fresh made cake waiting for us. Property nicely decorated with hints of bees around the rooms. Lovely to be able to sit outside to take in the views and interact with the alpacas . Area peaceful and quite.

A cosy stay

We really enjoyed our stay at Honeybee Home and was pleasantly surprised by the size of the property. The finishing touches to complement the honeybee theme were well thought out and our children loved the alpacas. There was a home made cake waiting for us when we arrived, which was lovely! Watching the moon rise in the evening was another one of our highlights as we fell really lucky with the weather. The property was close to all the places we’d planned to visit during our stay so was an ideal location for us.

What a fantastic place to stay

We loved our stay in Honeybee. The hobbitat is in a beautiful part of the country and had fabulous views and the resident Llamas added the finishing touches. Honeybee itself was amazing, just need to be careful to avoid hitting you head on the curve of the building when going to bed. The welcome sponge cake was also welcome. It makes you feel like you are miles away from civilisation but a short drive does take you to the town of Welshpool and it’s a shops, pubs etc. It’s location is great for exploring North Wales or The Midlands of England. We visited Caernarfon castle, Powis castle and and Gladstone pottery in Stoke on Trent, all within 2 hours driving. Claire, our host was extremely responsive to any queries that we had. I would recommend this property to anyone who wants an unusual alternative place to stay and I would definitely stay there is visiting that area again.

The property is amazing!!!!!

This property is absolutely amazing, I can’t speak highly enough about it, the attention to detail is definitely second to none, our little home was called Honeybee , everything was bee related, lots of small finishing touches, was the icing on the cake … and talking of cake , we were left an yummy coffee cake, scrumptious. The hot tub, the fire pit and the barbecue we thought was perfect, we spent so long in the hot tub, overlooking the most wonderful views The position for the surrounding areas was perfect We really didn’t want to leave …. So we will 100% be back for more relaxing fun We chatted to the owners, they were such lovely people It was the bees knees

Wow, what a beautiful week!

We stayed here with our four-year-old and seven-year-old, while our friends stayed in Rabbit Warren around the corner with their teenage son. It was perfect for all ages! The alpacas were such a highlight and brought so much fun to our stay. We also hired a car, which made it easy to visit the waterfalls, the zoo, and other local attractions. Overall, it was a fantastic experience for both children and adults alike. Thank you!

Perfect Peaceful Stay

Thank you for a lovely stay. The Alpacas were adorable. Always popping over us, and very intrigued looking at our mini pooch. The property was lovely and clean, everything you need. The views were incredible, loved watching the sunrise with a cuppa in the morning. Thanks very much, would love to return.

Wonderful snowy stay with the family

We had such a lovely stay at honeybee just after new year. The home was cosy and warm despite the snowy weather and everything we needed was provided. Apologies, we did have to sign out of Netflix as it kept blocking us out, saying honeybee was not part of the household. The alpacas were incredibly friendly and were ready and eager for their breakfast each morning. The views were stunning and the owner allowed us a few extra hours at check out as we were snowed in. Very much appreciated!

Fabulous!

We had the best stay at Honeybee Home recently! It was a first holiday taking our two dogs away and this made it more special. They had the best time looking at the alpacas and all the going’s on with the sheep etc they could see! From the home made cake at check in, to Claire even popping round after I’d asked her a question to check everything was ok, we couldn’t have hoped for better!! We will most definitely be returning! Thank you so much!

Cute Hobbit Home

Absolutely loved this cute little Hobbit Home. Really clean with everything you could need (apart from no instructions for the induction hob, which did change plans for one meal as I couldn't work it). Lovely, comfy beds. So nice to have an extra loo and a garden room by the hot tub. Alpacas were a little intimidating at first, but very friendly. Would highly recommend this place, and will definitely be returning

Amazing stay

Just got back from a lovely stay at honeybee home. Everything was absolutely perfect, so happy with the accommodation, and the alpacas and surroundings just made it extra special and a unique experience. The hobit home has everything you need, well equipped kitchen, board games, bbq and kids enjoyed the swing ball outside. We will definitely be back! We had lovely days out at Blists Hill Village and Park Hall farm with the kids (ages 4 and 7). Thanks again Claire!

Beautiful hobbit hole

We had a really enjoyable stay at the hobbit hole. The location was beautiful. Really peaceful area and loved seeing the alpacas. The hot tub was great as well - top tip don't overheat the fire too much - if you think it might not be hot enough get in and check as it probably is! We loved that everything you needed was there and especially enjoyed having an air fryer to use! Loved it and would definitely book again. Claire was really helpful and we loved the Victoria sponge from Claires mother in law! Thanks for a lovely stay for our 15 yr anniversary.

Paradise comes with alpacas!

We were absolutely delighted with our stay at Honeybee home. Our daughter loved feeding the alpacas who kept us company every day. The location was quiet with beautiful views. We thoroughly enjoyed using the sunny evenings to roast marshmallows and soak in the woodfired hot tub after long day of activities. The home itself was well stocked and comfortable, and the hosts attentive and thoughtful - the homemade cake was a real treat! The care that the hosts have taken with the design of the property - both inside and out - is apparent in every corner of the home. We found lots of excellent family activities in the area but looked forward to coming back to Honeybee home each night! Definitely recommend for a family getaway or a romantic break.

A Magical Stay We’ll Never Forget!

We stayed in the Honeybee Home and it was absolutely incredible. The home was beautifully decorated, spacious, modern, and so cosy. The photos honestly don’t do it justice! The views were stunning, and waking up to see the alpacas just outside was the best part of every day. Feeding them became our daily highlight, they were so friendly and full of personality! The wood fired hot tub was amazing, it heated up quicker than we expected and was the perfect way to relax while taking in the countryside views. We were also surprised with a delicious homemade cake that made us feel so welcome. We honestly didn’t want to leave and will 100% be coming back.

Lower expectations

Only stayed for 38 minutes due to consistent stream of flies in the kitchen area. Which meant you couldn’t prepare food safely or relax with them buzzing around, killed over 20 in the time and every time we thought we got them all another dozen appeared

Fabulous!

We absolutely loved this property! The house is colourful and quirky with a bee theme throughout. It was spotless, warm and super cosy. Whilst small, it made great use of the available space. We felt there was plenty of room for myself, my teenage daughter and our cairn terrier and it didn't feel cramped at all. My daughter loved the underground twin bedroom, she was really comfortable in there. The bathroom was a good size, with double basins and a very nice walk in shower and the kitchen area was spacious and kitted out with everything you could need for a self-catering break. Claire, the owner was really friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. She also left the most delicious, homemade Victoria sponge for our arrival. We also booked the hot tub for our weekend which we very much enjoyed using on the Saturday night. There were plenty of logs available for its wood fired stove so the water heated to the perfect temperature. The outside space is great, really liked the garden room near the hot tub (with loo which is really useful!) and there's a lovely patio area with lots of seating (although in January we weren't really able to make the most of that!). We also got to meet and feed some alpaca neighbours much to the delight of my daughter who loved them. The location is also great, it's close to the A483 so it's easy to get out to explore the local area. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property and would definitely stay again.

Quirky comfort with a side of alpacas

We just loved our stay at Honeybee Home. We stayed with our two very young boys and were delighted with everything provided. The home itself is exquisite, with beautiful touches everywhere and everything you need. The alpacas really made our week and the outdoor area was just wonderful for playing and relaxing. A real Welsh gem!
