A fun, quirky stay in Wales

We really enjoyed the quirky hobbit house. The beds were comfortable, shower was lovely and big and kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. But the main reason to go were the views and the resident alpacas that greeted us every time we popped outside. The owners kept us up to date with details on arrival and made us a lovely cake.
Alpaca fun

We had a lovely break at the Rabbit Warren, such a unique place to stay. The Alpacas were roaming frerly around our accommodation, we were also able to feed them with the food provided. If we had any problems, contacting the owners was quick and easy, and replacement items (bbq gas canister) were replaced within 20 minutes. The owners were extremely friendly and even showed us they’re newly built Hobbit House, which is soon to open this summer. We will definitely be visiting again. Great place to stay for a family, or those looking for something a little bit different.
A very special place

Very cosy & relaxing stay at Rabbit Warren
Reviewed on 21/04/2023
We had a lovely time as a family of 5 staying for a few nights over Easter. The Rabbit Warren is warm and cosy and very quirky. The children loved seeing the animals out of the window and going out in the morning to feed them. They also managed to use the outdoor bath and firepit despite awful weather. The kitchen was well equipped although we would have liked another stool so we could all sit to eat but we did manage. The homemade cake, warm bread and butter and Easter treats for the children were very much appreciated. We visited Powis Castle and drove to Barmouth one day. Good location to reach many other places. Thanks for a lovely stay.
