What do our customers think about a break in Powys?

"This place is such a slice of heaven! We really don’t want to leave! Everything has been perfect.

From the epic view, the hot tub, the million stars coming out at night and the general sense of peace here. We’ve loved it!

Thank you for being so friendly and welcoming. Definitely be back again."

Review for Seren Bach Dome

"Just had the most fabulous getaway to Wales to this picture perfect, top class romantic place to stay for 2.

We planned an iteniary full of hikes & site seeing with everything an easy picturesque drive nearby and plenty of cosey time back at the Y Capel.

The bath was blissful to soak infront of the fire after long walks & pop some fizz in the private garden enjoying the hot tub.

Super cosy bed plus all the amenities you need it was a fantastic week & we hope to come back again."
