Ivy's Way – Romantic Shepherd's Hut Escape

Perched on the edge of the breathtaking Gilfach Nature Reserve, Ivy's Way offers a peaceful and picturesque retreat with panoramic views that greet you the moment you step outside the door. This charming Shepherd's Hut is the perfect hideaway for couples seeking a romantic break in the heart of Mid Wales.

Thoughtfully styled with cosy comforts and a warm, welcoming interior, Ivy's Way blends rustic charm with modern touches. Set against the rolling hills of the Welsh countryside, it's an ideal base for exploring the surrounding landscapes—while offering the seclusion and serenity of a true countryside escape.

Inside, the open-plan layout creates an intimate living space where you can unwind, dine, or simply enjoy each other's company. The well-equipped kitchen and a crackling wood burner make it just as inviting on cooler evenings, perfect for snuggling in with a glass of wine.

The compact shower room is smartly designed for comfort and convenience, and the snug double bed promises a restful night's sleep—especially with stunning countryside views visible through the patio doors that open onto raised decking.

Step outside into your private outdoor area, where you can relax to the sound of birdsong, watch the local wildlife, or stargaze beneath the clear night skies. For the ultimate treat, sink into your exclusive hot tub and soak in the beauty of your surroundings.

Set on the edge of the owner's peaceful farmland, Ivy's Way offers a perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and access to nature. Whether you're out exploring or staying in to unwind, this is a retreat you'll remember long after your stay.

Lovely stay with beautiful views!

I stayed here with my husband and our 2yr old miniature dachshund. Ivy's Way was absolutely lovely, had everything we needed and the view from the hut was beautiful. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Perfect!

Just a perfect little spot and gorgeous property! Was very clean. We loved every part of the stay and even better we could take the dog with us! The only thing we would say and its out of the owners hands is that it’s a shame the only way to walk into the centre is on the main road because of how fast the cars drive up.

Winter Getaway

We loved staying here, from using the hot tub to the log burner. We loved having the log burner in the hut especially this time of the year. This is the second time we’ve stayed on this site. We love that we can bring our dog too. Would recommend this to everyone, it’s so nice and peaceful.

Lovely, cosy, lodge

Loved this little cosy lodge. Not much storage space but room to store things under the bed. Dog friendly. Felt safe leaving our dog to roam around the garden. Hot tub was an added bonus.

good stay

Good stay, comfy beds and a cute pod. The pod was a lot smaller than it looked on camera and a lot closer to the other pods. I would’ve liked just a bit more privacy in the hot tub as can see others around. Also would’ve liked either an earlier check in as 4pm is quite late and dark by the time you get there

Wonderful stay in stunning surroundings

First weekend away without our children or other friends in a very long time and I coudlnt have picked a better place. The views are just breathtaking, the hut was spotless and had everything we needed. Perfect if you have a dog as the shepherds huts have a completely enclosed garfen. My only issue is that as much as it was perfect for our break alone, my children would have loved it so I plan on returning with them .... and we rarely return to the same place. We stayed in ivys way which had completely uninterrupted views.

Best holiday I have been on

We came on this holiday expecting a few nice days in Wales but when we arrive our expectation were already exceeded. Ivy’s Way was beautiful, it was so cosy and homely and the views were incredible. We loved that we had a view of highland cows grazing in the field with the stunning welsh countryside in the background. We spent most of our time star gazing and even managed to see multiple breathtaking shooting stars. The surrounding areas were exactly what we wanted, with lots of picturesque walks and amazing waterfalls. We would highly recommend visiting Devils Bridge, it was like nothing I have ever experienced! We have already booked to come back next year! Thank you for making our holiday perfect!

Another great stay

An absolutely amazing location. We've stayed in Ivy's Way before and absolutely love it. Everything you need for a comfortable stay and if you get the weather an amazing outdoor area. Unfortunately, we stayed during Storm Debbie and the front doors took a real hammering from the weather. We were lovely and toasty inside with the log burner but water was getting through. So being one of the older huts on site Ivy's Way could do with a new set of doors and it was disappointing that the fairy lights weren't workig even though we went to the shop to get new batteries. That said we would absolutely stay again, as hut is in one of the best positions for views over the valley. Absolutely stunning.
