Welcome to Ty Gwyn Farm
About Ty Gwyn Farm
Country courses, glamping in a Straw Bale Cottage and self catering accommodation at Granary Cottage at Ty Gwyn Farm, Llandrindod Wells, Radnorshire, Wales.
About Us
Ty Gwyn Farm in Mid Wales is a traditional mixed farm, sitting in the rolling hills of Radnorshire, with stunning panoramic views in every direction.
Ty Gwyn is an ideal base from which to explore this hidden, unspoilt area of Mid Wales. The beautiful Elan Valley, Builth Wells and Hay on Wye are all within easy reach. There are walks around the farm and plenty of footpaths and long distance walks in the area of Radnorshire and Llandrindod Wells. Watch the wildlife; we have red kites, buzzards, hares and badgers, enjoy clean air, open skies and absolute peace and quiet. From the farm there is easy access to the Victorian Spa town of Llandrindod Wells which still retains its magnificent buildings many of which surround the Temple Gardens. Within the town there are supermarkets, local food shops, a Victorian theatre, gift shops, coffee shops, restaurants and pubs. The 13 acre lake is a particular feature with a magnificent dragon fountain in the middle.
Ty Gwyn is in a truly beautiful location. As you drive down the lane, you can see the vast panorama of hills spread out before you. Once here, there is a total peace and quiet, no other properties can be seen and the sky is dark at night, so you can see the stars. The only sounds you may hear are the birds, the stream and the sounds of our livestock. The lane that comes to the farm is very quiet and does not really go anywhere so we only get about one car a day using it!

The Straw Cottage
The ultimate get away
The Straw Cottage is truly far from the madding crowd, an off grid straw bale cottage in an idyllic spot on the farm. Wake up to the sound of birdsong, go to sleep to the sound of Holly Brook, breakfast outside with just the meadow flowers and the hills for company. This is the romance of a bygone era with modern comfort.
Granary Cottage
The ultimate get away
Granary Cottage sits in the quiet courtyard of Ty Gwyn Farm surrounded by 130 acres of our farm. Ty Gwyn is in a truly beautiful location. Driving down the lane, the vast panorama of hills is spread out before you. Once here, you will have total peace and quiet, no other houses can be seen, the sky is dark at night and yet we are only 2.5 miles from the Victorian spa town of Llandrindod Wells. Within the town there are local food shops, supermarkets, a Victorian theatre, coffee shops, restaurants and garages. The 13 acre lake is a particular feature with a magnificent dragon fountain in the middle.

We have had the most amazing and relaxing holiday! The children have loved playing outside and the grown ups loved no phones!!
As ever, comfortable and in a perfect location for our return visit. Many thanks
An enjoyable stay as always in these beautiful surroundings.
Lovely, lovely time at Straw Cottage. Lovely walks for our dog ‘Churchy’. Lots of places to visit. Not enough time to do them all. All the locals were extremely friendly. Super little lake down hill from the Golf Course. Fantastic views wherever you looked. Hosts were very helpful. Will definitely be back.
We have had an awesome time here at Straw Cottage. We’ve visited Elan Valley which was beautiful and driven over the mountain road – stunning. We’ve enjoyed the treasure hunt, seeing bats and catching pond skaters in the stream.
We had a magical stay at Straw Cottage. Thank you! Everything was perfect. We can’t wait to return.
Most wonderful place to stay. Peaceful and beautiful
Just what the doctor ordered! So wonderful to be away from the hustle and bustle of life!! Straw Cottage made us sit back and just enjoy. Fabulous farm walks, loved Elan Valley and its stunning views. Lucky with the weather too 23degrees in October. who would have thought! Lovely to meet you Margot – thanks for the thoughtful things in the cottage – we will bring our friends next time!
Another fab week with you and boy great weather this time! Thanks very much both.
Granary Cottage, – lovely slice of heaven here. Best host, best cottage, best farm in beautiful countryside.
Granary Cottage, lovely clean cottage. Outstanding views, walks. Thank you.
Thank you for such a great few days in nature, the sound of the birds and stream were delightful. It was great to explore the countryside. The cottage itself was so lovely, perfect to snuggle up to read and watch the fire whilst feeling totally “off grid”. We wished we could have stayed longer
We were in dire need of a massive switch off from everyday life – and thankfully that’s exactly what we found at the wonderful Straw Cottage! The farm is beautiful and Gigi enjoyed running around! We visited the Elan Valley, Mach loop, Devils Bridge and finally the stunning mountains at Snowdonia. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your beautiful cottage.
Beautiful cottage in a lovely area. We had wonderful time, thank you.
I loved the treasure hunt! Definitely recommend. I really liked exploring Wales and we even saw a tiny field mouse near the hammock. The local Indian was divine and Devil’s bridge was beautiful. The little details of the cottage really makes it a great place to be and it was so weird not having lights! Thank you Straw Cottage
A lovely week. Also our dogs loved it.
Thank you so much – I have loved every minute spent in this lovely cottage in a beautiful location – I can definitely see a return in my future! So quiet and peaceful – exactly what we wanted! A beautiful cosy couple of days watching the stream.
Our 4th visit to the Straw Cottage!! We love it here so much. The weather has been fantastic. We enjoy watching and listening to the wild life. We had visits from The Bats, Mr. Hare, the woodpeckers! Poppy loves playing in the stream finding lots of treasure. We will miss our relaxing mornings! The Fforest Inn is still doing an amazing carvery on Sunday. Poppy (10years) says Thank you for the lovely stay. I enjoyed it sooo much! The roast was delicious at the Fforest Inn. I helped unblock the stream. It was amazing. xxx
Special grandparent time whilst Mummy & Daddy at Glastonbury!! Absolutely fabulous long weekend, magical. We never left the cottage! Sad to leave, but will be back. Thank you so so much Anthony & Margot. The treasure hunt was ace. It is the best place ever – Harry & Charlie
Really relaxing stay in Granary cottage, everything we needed was supplied. Lovely local walks with the dog. Fantastic hosts. Thank you.
Had a great 3 night stay and thank you for having us. Jude has eaten all the ripe blackberries within a mile radius of the cottage! To be close to wildlife, nature and the trickling brook is a real treat that we will miss when we’re home. Thank you Anthony and Margot
We have had such a wonderful time at the Straw Cottage. Peaceful, relaxing and just what we were after. Hoping to return in the not too distant future. What a lovely part of the world.
We loved the stay at the Straw Cottage. since we had no technology we all read a lot more and chatted to each other more instead of parents isolating themselves on their phones! We also went everywhere using a map! We all enjoyed the hammock and river loads and we saw many bats. It was weird because we would all look for light switches!! The treasure hunt was so fun! The nature around was beautiful!!! Our dog loved roaming in the woods and jumping through the bushes and splashing in the river!! We loved our stay. Thank you.
We had a lovely second time at the Straw Cottage. My favourite part was no electricity. Zain’s was lighting the fire and candles. This was a lovely place to stay. The chaffinch kept tapping at the window.!
Margot, what magic you have created here and how special to share that with others. We’ve had the most amazing weekend at The Straw Cottage. The grounds are like something from a fairy tale and we loved the sights on the walk into town. The Elan Valley was out of this world beautiful and we have loved every minute of our quality time together away from the outside world. Evenings by candlelight, red wine, monopoly and a roaring fire was every bit as romantic as we could have wished for. Can’t wait to come and stay again.
A wonderful few nights, comfortable and cosy cottage with everything you need. Gorgeous walking and beautiful scenery. Thank you.
Friendly and welcoming. Lovely cottage and perfect base for our stay. Thank you Margot & Anthony
We have been coming back here since 2008!! A beautify place to relax, forget about things, and get in some beautiful walks.
Lovely, peaceful place to stay. Thank you
