Holiday rentals in Painscastle

Gemma’s place is stunning! Immaculately clean, well equipped and so welcoming! It was such a treat to come back from a breezy beach walk to a warm, cosy space. Gemma was super helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend!

The apartment was perfect for us for our few days away in Mumbles. It was just as described, really beautifully decorated and a very relaxing place to spend our evenings after a long day of walking, with views across the water. It was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped for everything we needed. We appreciated the recommendations left in the guidebook. The location was great for pottering to shops and bars too. We enjoyed a lovely walk along the coast to Caswell Bay and it worked perfectly to be able to hop on the bus back to the centre of Mumbles. Would definitely recommend!

What an absolute gem!! The location of the lodge is fantastic, beautifully peaceful countryside with only the birds and local farm animals in sight and earshot. The photos really do not do it justice, the feel inside is super cosy and well equipped. Outside is on another level - the views over the fields, private hot tub and sauna as well as various different seating areas make it stand out. We had planned to walk to the local pub but we were having such a relaxing time we decided not to leave at all! We had asked for the hot tub to be warmed for when we got there, the only thing I will say is bring your fire making abilities with you as you'll need them! Michelle was a great host, she was very responsive both prior to the stay and during, and met us there to let us in, nothing was too much trouble. The return trip is already in discussions!

Really enjoyed our stay at the Idris cabin! The cabins are cosy with a great view, the hot tub and bbq are good additions (just be aware the hot tub takes a while to warm up so needs patience!) and Barmouth is a cute town to walk into with a nice beach and some good cafes and restaurants - defo recommend the mermaid fish and chips. Drivable distance to Snowdon (50 minutes) which we hiked on our second day there. Amanda and Jeff were very pleasant hosts and happy to offer recommendations on the local area. Also massively helped in accepting luggage early to the B&B before check in time due to a mishap with an airline. I always think the mark of a short holiday stay is the question “would you stay there again?” And the answer would be definitely yes!

Such a wonderful cabin. A peaceful environment next to the river. We lit a fire and watched the stars all evening.

We had a lovely stay for a few nights. It wasn't great weather, so the little games room on site was very useful to entertain the kids. Great, quiet, countryside location but not too far from pubs etc. The barn had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable.

We had a great stay. The location was perfect as it was easy walking distance to the centre of Cardiff. Despite being so central the street was extremely quiet. The house had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable. We will definitely stay again next time we come to Cardiff. Exceptional value.

Another lovely stay at the lake lodge. Thank you 🤩

My second visit here, I love how peaceful the garden is and the views across to the surrounding hills. The armchair in the garden under the cover of a canopy is wonderful, allowing me to sit and read all day undisturbed! The hot tub is a huge bonus and this really is a glamping experience. The bed is comfy, the kitchen is well equipped, the outdoor shower is lovely too. Thanks so much for a great stay! I will definitely be visiting again :)
