“Cosy shepherd's hut with separate kitchen and bathroom facilities surrounded by fields”
+The hut is surrounded by fields. There is a bird feeder about 10m from the window which attracts lots of different species of birds. The kitchen area is large (in a barn) with microwave and hob. The hut itself looks new but appears quaint. The bed (sofa bed) is comfortable. There is a wood burner, but in May we did not need it - still quite warm inside the hut on our return from the festival around midnight. The nights are dark (no light pollution) and quiet.

“Perfect, cosy and quiet, with amazing views!”
+My partner and I both love nature but don't get a chance to escape the busy city... This place is amazing - we had our dream mini-holiday! We were surrounded by nature, birds, sheep and stars! The hut is very cosy... What an amazing experience coming back after a long hike, being able to completely relax inside the hut, while feeling the warmth of the fire (wood burner) and hearing the rain outside . The facilities are exceptionally clean (and we even had our own kitchen with everything we could possibly need). The owner Sam was very friendly and accommodating (when we arrived he showed us where everything was and was happy to answer any questions we had)! There is a lot to explore around the area, and to just appreciate the beauty of nature and hearing Beeeeh everywhere :) (we certainly miss the sheep ;) )
−Would have loved to stay longer, but we had to go back home :(

+Absolutely idyllic. The cabin is a gorgeous place for a getaway - perfect views, cosy fire, and a busy bird feeder right outside the window! The kitchen and bathroom have everything you need and are just a short walk away from the cabin itself. A perfect place to switch off! Hosts are lovely. 10/10.

“Wholesome, off grid and peaceful.”
+We liked scenic location and peaceful area. We felt that the shepards hut was cosy and the bed was comfy. Once the log burner got going it was warm and comfortable. We also appreciated Sam’s walk recommendations and loved being so close to the sheep. The kitchen was also well equipped!
−Before the log burner gets going it was really cold in the hut and the heater in the bathroom is average so it’s cold in there too.

+A perfect antidote to modern living, with the opportunity to switch off and enjoy a closer connection to the natural world. To say it's peaceful is an understatement. From the sounds of the nearby river, the birds and sheep or absolute quiet, Cefnmachlys delivered everything I wanted. The hut is comfortable and cosy, the kitchen is well equipped, and the bathroom facilities are superb.
−Absolutely nothing.
