Overview of Sunflower...
Sunflower Shepherd's Hut is one of five romantic retreats for two in Mid Wales. Offering dog friendly stays near Rhayader, with a private hot tub and enclosed garden. Walk from the doorstep to Gilfach Nature Reserve, or explore the spectacular Elan Valley. There are plenty of options for outdoor sports enthusiasts and treats for foodies locally.
Sunflower Shepherd's Hut is a beautifully crafted getaway for two in Wales' rural countryside. A cosy cabin with wooden shutters, sumptuous king sized bed and smart TV. Your kitchenette has a microwave, hob, oven, fridge, toaster and kettle. Enjoy long lie-ins or take your morning coffee out to your private hot tub!
Offering dog friendly stays with enclosed garden, Sunflower Shepherd's Hut allows your four-legged friend to sunbathe or sniff around without being able to wander far. Meaning you can throw open the doors and let your pooch come and go as he pleases.
The shower room comes complete with flushing WC, hand basin, shower & heated towel rail.
For the perfect evening in at Sunflower Shepherd's Hut, pick up some local produce to cook on the barbecue. Later, watch the sunset from your hot tub, sharing a bottle of fizz. What could be more romantic than stargazing beside your fire pit. Then cosying up together in your idyllic retreat, to the sounds of the countryside around.
The nearby market town of Rhayader has takeaways, pubs and The Lost Arc. This is a favourite with locals for pizza nights, Sunday Lunch and bands who normally tour large city venues.
Sunflower Shepherd's Hut is the perfect base for dog walks or outdoor activities. The Elan Valley has easy cycleways, mountain biking, kayaking and fishing on offer. Adrenaline junkies can head to The Phil Price Rally School half an hour away, climb, ride or try water sports at Llangorse Activity Centre. While for pampering head to The Rock Spa at The Metropole.
