“OUR FAVOURITE PLACE TO STAY!”
This was our second stay (and, hopefully, not the last by a long way) at Straw Cottage and we loved it just as much this Spring as last Summer. It is the best place I've ever found to give ourselves a much needed break from the pressures of modern life, yet it is still comfortable, cosy and just lovely. We kept nice and warm on the squashy sofas around the log burning stove in the evenings and played many family board games. During the day, we made outdoor fires in the fire pit, the kids and the dog played in the stream and the woods and rode their bikes, while the adults relaxed on the porch with books, magazines and guitar playing. And we all love the tree swing! Thank you to the lovely hosts, Margot and Anthony, for providing such a wonderful holiday experience.

Emma. What a wonderful review - thank you so much. It's great when our returning visitors love the Straw Cottage as much on their second visit as their first. Best wishes Margot

From the North via A44 and A483 from Crossgates.
Come into Llandrindod Wells, go past the Metropole Hotel (large green hotel on your left), take the first turning left at the mini roundabout past the Metropole, signposted The Lake. Almost as soon as your turn left, turn right between the chemists and the Automobile Palace. Follow that road out past the lake to a T junction. Turn left, go up hill past golf course, round bad bend, past bungalows on your left, keep going for about 1/4 mile and then follow the road as it bends sharply to the right (do not take the road in front which has a no through road sign). Look for the finger post that says Ty Gwyn Farm. Follow the lane and go through a metal gate (normally open), down the hill to a black gate, turn in just through the black gate into the yard and continue into the courtyard and we will take you to The Straw Cottage.
Ty Gwyn Farm is the only farm on the right after the golf course. Don't go into Ty Gwyn Bach, which is well before you come to us.
From the South via A483 from Builth Wells.
As you come into Llandrindod Wells you pass the garage on your right, then you come to a wide right hand turn opposite the Old Grosvenor Bakery signposted The Lake and Golf Course. Take that right turn and go out past the lake and up hill past golf course, round bad bend, past bungalows on your left, keep going for about 1/4 mile and then follow the road as it bends sharply to the right (do not take the road in front which has a no through road sign). Look for the finger post that says Ty Gwyn Farm. Follow the lane and go through a metal gate,(normally open) down the hill to a black gate, turn in just through the black gate into the yard. Continue up into the courtyard and we will take you to the Straw Cottage.
Ty Gwyn Farm is the only farm on the right after the golf course. Don't go into Ty Gwyn Bach, which is well before you come to us.
Ty Gwyn Farm is about 2.5 miles from Llandrindod Wells.
Beware if using SATNAV as it often takes you to the bungalows instead!
