Your Hosts
Meet Leanne and Graham ..
Graham, Leanne, and their three sons purchased Tegfan Cottage back in 2018, and by that summer, they proudly welcomed their first guests—something they’ve never looked back on since.
Their love for hosting and sharing the beauty of Mid Wales soon led them to open Tegfan Barn in 2020, offering even more guests the chance to experience this special corner of the world.
Graham and Leanne live just up the road, so they’re always nearby if you have any questions, need local tips, or simply fancy a friendly chat.
Both of their charming properties are surrounded by rolling fields, home to sheep, cows, and even a few horses—not to mention the breathtaking views across the Cambrian Mountains that make every stay unforgettable.
