Nice stay

Lovely little place surrounded by lovely scenery! Very close to Elan Valley for walks and exploring. We enjoyed the bbq and hot tub. The only thing we noticed was the smell of the mop which was in a cupboard in main bedroom did make the whole room smell, especially with the heat, so we had to put it outside while we were staying. Maybe an outside cupboard down the side of the building would be useful to store this. Also, the window in the top bedroom did not have a blind so it was very bright up there. Other than this, we had a nice stay thankyou!

Perfection

We had the best time at Buck Barn - the cabin itself was perfect and had everything you could want and need in a holiday rental. The extras were so well thought out and the kids had the best time roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. The location is stunning and everywhere nearby was very relaxed, even in summer holidays. We can’t wait to come back!

A beautiful place to start 2026

We visited for a mini break in the first few days of 2026, looking for a peaceful location to consume the final cheese and port from Christmas and set up our intentions and plans for the year. The lodge is beautifully set on the site, and feels very luxurious. Underfloor heating and the hottub were invaluable as the snow arrived! A lovely location to explore Elan Valley and the dams, and the recommendation of The Crown Inn was spot on for lunch.

Amazing stay in very comfortable cabin in glorious valley

Great stay at Buck Barn with my two teen boys. Really comfortable, well kitted out accommodation. Hot tub was a real treat. Beautiful quiet valley with sheep and lambs for neighbours, and kites flying overhead. We had beautiful clear skies for star gazing around the firepit. Lots of local activities, and towns only 15 min drive. Would definitely stay again.

Amazing

Me and my partner loved staying here, the views were amazing especially waking up to dozens of sheep right outside our door. Buck Barn was well looked after and had everything we needed for our stay, the hot tub was incredible too, the only thing i could fault is that there were lots of flies around the area and a lot of them ended up in the cabin but if you keeps doors and windows closed it should be fine.

Booked Buck Barn for my partner and I just a little getaway and you did not disappoint. Amazing views, very peaceful, good to recharge the batteries. Hot tub was fab and the Lodge was in the perfect location, very clean cannot fault anything with the cabin. Value for money and we will be returning at some point in the future!

My dad wanted to stay for a month!

This was a last minute booking after being let down by a hotel for my mums birthday. The owners left some lovely treats (lemonade, Welsh cakes, Marshmallows, sweets, Milk and log burner for the fire pit) considering it was just for the night, property was lovely light and comfortable for a family of 6. Thank you again, we are coming back next year for 4 night break.

Friends walking weekend

Beautiful setting in a great location for Elan Valley. We sat in a first rate hot tub with views of the mountains, watching Red kites flying overhead and once it got dark listened to the owls. Plenty of space for the 3 of us in the very clean, modern well equipt Buck Barn. Essentials were supplied, tea, coffee, milk, toilet roll, dishwasher tablets etc there were a few luxuries as well. Will definitely be staying again x
