bird watching in luxury!

For avid twitchers how about a stay at Suran-y-Coed in Powys? With a setting next to beautiful countryside and woods, you can look out for buzzards or kites nearby and may even catch a glimpse of an Owl at night. Situated on a working farm which is nestled in stunning countryside in a private valley, this is a wonderful place to marvel at the wonder of nature.

This could be the perfect location for a peaceful bird-watching holiday in Wales.

Made from solid pine and with 2 bedrooms and an outdoor hot tub, this is a fantastic holiday lodge for enjoying a relaxing holiday with your friends or family. There is a large outdoor veranda so you can keep a look out for feathered visitors both during the day and in the evening.

Perfect location in mid Wales for groups of bird watchers or outdoor enthusiasts.

secluded location in the peaceful Welsh countryside

You are on the slopes of the stunning Cilieni Valley, deep in the Brecon Beacons, at the end of your own half-mile drive. Ducks cruise the pond; red kites patrol overhead. There are breathtaking views from this old converted barn. The young can swim in the river - it's quite safe - cycle or play tennis and football. Inside, all is light and large, bare stone, old oak rafters and A-frames and some new pine.

The Maughans deliberately aimed to make this conversion of an old hay barn and stables a real treat for families and a fun place for children; they also went to great lengths to preserve as many of the original materials as they could. Two huge doors made by local craftsmen lead into the bright, big sitting room into which the evening sun streams.

The bedrooms under the old timbered eaves although small are airy and simply furnished with good storage and breathtaking views; all the doubles also have a single platform bed for children. There's underfloor heating, lashings of hot water, a boot room and a drying room.
