Owl Hollow did not disappoint! Words cannot describe how truly magical it was seeing 4 friendly alpacas on your roof every evening – what a memorable holiday in the Welsh countryside! The “hobbit hole” was very comfortable and the bluetooth speaker sound was the best quality sound I’ve ever experienced. Our hosts were extremely responsive and helpful, and went above and beyond! I highly recommend Owl Hollow for a unique, quirky, and relaxing holiday!

This is a perfect location for a bit of R&R. Dave and Claire had provided everything we needed for a quiet weekend away – tea, cake and a comfortable sofa!! This gorgeous location had amazing views during both the horizontal rain and bright sun. An early morning visit from the Alpacas on the day of our departure provided a wonderful end to our stay. We enjoyed ourselves so much and can’t wait to visit again.
