Things To Do

Walking

Explore rugged moorland paths and reservoir-side walks directly from the property, with routes ranging from gentle waterside stretches to higher ground with wide-open views across the Elan Valley.

Cycling & Mountain Biking

Quiet country roads, mountain trails and forestry tracks create established cycling routes around Rhayader and throughout the Elan Valley, making it easy to plan anything from a relaxed loop to a more challenging day in the hills.

Wildlife Watching

The surrounding landscape is rich in wildlife year-round – keep an eye out for red kites overhead, along with merlins and peregrines, plus seasonal sightings that change with the months.

Fishing

The area is well known for excellent trout fishing from March to October, with opportunities in the Elan Valley reservoirs as well as on the River Elan and the River Wye.

Stargazing

With minimal light pollution, clear nights reveal extraordinary dark skies – ideal for stargazing, astrophotography, or simply taking in the quiet after sunset.

Or simply stay close — gardens, ponds, and views reward stillness.
