The cleanliness of the accommodation was impeccable, with every corner shining and spotless. The maintenance of the property was top-notch, showcasing a high level of care and attention to detail. One of the highlights of my stay was the amazing hot tub. It was the perfect way to unwind and relax after a day of exploring the beautiful surroundings. The hot tub was well-maintained and provided a luxurious experience that added an extra level of comfort to my stay. I was pleasantly surprised by the great wifi connection at Elan Valley Welsh. When you book somewhere that is as remote as The Sheepfold you expect a very slow WiFi speed, however this was not the case. Whether I needed to catch up on socials or simply stream my favorite movies, the wifi never let me down, allowing me to stay connected throughout my stay. The views from the property were truly breathtaking. Waking up to the sunrise shining over the Welsh countryside was a treat for the senses, especially when you can take these views in from the hot tub. Overall, my experience at the Elan Valley Welsh was nothing short of fantastic. The combination of great cleanliness, excellent maintenance, an amazing hot tub, reliable wifi, and stunning views made for a perfect getaway. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating retreat in the heart of the Welsh countryside

), we had a glorious stay. The pros: stunning views, beautifully peaceful, a welcome pack that included treats for the dogs, separate towels for hot tub provided, the mattresses and bedding were high quality and so comfy, comfy furniture, decent glasses, dishwasher and washer/dryer with pods provided, hot tub was divine, good size entry mat for those muddy paws!, full smart TV, all fixtures and fittings were clearly well thought out and high quality, as itâs on the end nobody can see you in the hot tub. The cons: only 2 tea bags and 2 sachets of coffee provided (picky I know, but Iâve stayed at cheaper places that provide more), not suitable for all dogs - stock fencing to the side entrance would not be secure for small dogs (although you could easily put something across this), fencing height is very low (prob 3ft if that) and this means large dogs can see each other over the fence, it also means you can see the people next door if youâre in the garden - some bamboo screening between the properties would improve privacy (and maybe taller mesh/trellis on the other sides), most of the property was immaculate but the lamps were very dusty and the extractor fan a little greasy. Finally, an info pack would really help - little things like rules for dogs, how to operate hot tub/heating, places close by that dogs can be walked, what to do with dirty laundry at the end of the stay and recycling/rubbish. Overall a fabulous, relaxing stay and we would come back with the dogs as Elan Valley Welsh has the best position.

The property had everything we would have wished for. Great TV signal and Wifi, and the hot tub was a great way to unwind at the end of the day. Watching the Red Kites swooping around looking for food was amazing. The standard of fittings at the property was first class. We will be back again in the near future.
