Lôn Lodges, Nantmel, Rhayader, Powys (Sleeps 1-6)


Ash and Sycamore Lodges are situated at The Lon, a family-run hill farm 4 miles from the small market town of Rhayader in Powys. Both of our self-catering lodges have been sustainably built using locally sourced timber and can each sleep 6 people. They offer luxury accommodation within the relaxing and beautiful countryside of Mid Wales. 

The Lon Lodges is committed to catering to the needs of walkers and cyclists and have been approved by Visit Wales after meeting the criteria of the "Walkers and Cyclists Welcome Scheme".

Ash and Sycamore are great places to relax and unwind and perfect bases from which to explore central Wales. There are lots of wonderful walks, peaceful lanes to cycle and many mountain biking tracks. Nature reserves, pony trekking and fishing are on the doorstep and the area is a bird watchers’ paradise. Fungi forays or guided mushroom hunts are a local speciality!

Our luxurious lodges are identical and have been tastefully decorated and furnished to ensure guests have a relaxing and tranquil retreat. All the lodges have eco air conditioning to keep the lodge lovely and cool in the summer months. Each lodge includes a private spa hot tub with LED lighting – great for evening star gazing! 

Red kites fill the skies and The Gigrin Red Kite Feeding Station is nearby, just outside Rhayader. The reservoirs and the unique open moorlands of the Elan Valley are just a few miles away and are a joy to explore on foot, by bicycle, on horseback or by car. The lovely country towns of Rhayader, Llanidloes, Builth Wells, Llandrindod Wells, Presteigne, Knighton (on Offa’s Dyke) and Hay on Wye all have very different characters and are all well worth a leisurely explore.
