Guests say

Guests have found the Triangle Inn Coachouse to be a cosy and comfortable retreat, with its proximity to the Elan Valley and local amenities in Rhayader being highly appreciated. The on-site pub is a highlight, offering good food and friendly staff. While some guests missed Wi-Fi and additional amenities, the cottage's charm and location seem to compensate, with several visitors returning for multiple stays.

There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score for this category.

The location is frequently praised for being ideal, close to the Elan Valley and within walking distance to Rhayader shops. The convenience of a great pub nearby is also noted.

The cottage is described as cosy and comfortable, with a king size bed that provided good sleep quality. However, one review mentioned the property felt cramped, suggesting comfort may vary depending on personal space expectations.

The lack of Wi-Fi, washing machine, and freezer has been pointed out, which affects the score. However, improvements have been made since previous visits, indicating ongoing maintenance.

There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the host, so this category cannot be scored. It should be noted that while gifts are a lovely surprise, they are not guaranteed.

About this property

A delightful mid-terrace cottage lying just outside the centre of the bustling market town of Rhayader. Triangle Inn Coach House is a quirky escape for a couple looking to explore the wonders of the Elan Valley, lying opposite a local pub, The Triangle Inn, you can embark on adventures outdoors and look forward to returning to a well-earned drink. Enter this sweet dwelling and be welcomed into the quaint kitchen, where original exposed beams line the ceiling as well as one timber pillar placed in the middle of the space, it offers a rustic charm amidst the contemporary appliances. When you aren't sampling the food from the local independent restaurants and pubs, cook up some tasty dinners on the electric oven and hob, with a microwave and fridge here too, and perch at the breakfast bar neatly tucked in the corner. Also resting on the ground floor is the shower room, feel refreshed in here after a rigorous ramble. Travel up the stairs to find a lovely spot to wind down, here you'll find the open-plan bedroom and sitting area; take a seat in one of the two large armchairs before the TV, and when you're ready to turn in, get under the covers of the king-size bed to prepare for another exciting day. On bright summer days hop over the road to The Triangle Inn and sit out on the outdoor terrace with a refreshing drink from the bar, whilst your four-legged friends can delight in plenty of nearby grassed areas to stretch their legs. Anglers can delight in a wide selection of fishing in the Elan Valley with Rhayader and Elan Valley Association managing a series of dams forming four reservoirs which are well-stocked with wild brown trout, or head to Llyngwyn, a 16-acre natural lake hosting rainbow trout too. Those looking for just a leisurely stroll or a challenging hike can all be impressed with the Elan Valley terrain, with the Elan Valley Trail a particular favourite of both walkers and cyclists, while a walk around Drygarn Fawr involves two climbs and takes you to the highest point on the Elan Estate for some spectacular views. Since 2015, the Elan Valley has been granted International Dark Sky Park status, so you should incorporate an evening stroll into your holiday to witness the beauty of the skies and stars above in this natural environment, a truly romantic experience to have with your partner. Thrill-seekers will be enthralled by the great amount of natural mountain bike trails, with woodlands, old railways, and open hills all offering fantastic settings and scenery for an exciting cycle. With the lively town of Rhayader offering a host of independent shops and eateries too, you will have so much to explore in Mid-Wales when you stay at Triangle Inn Coach House.

Many tea rooms, bars, restaurants, services, and distinctive boutiques can be found in Rhayader's modest Welsh market town. Having a large swimming pool and a weekly livestock market as an extra plus.

Nearby the town limits, visitors should not miss the Red Kite Feeding Station. River Wye's first town, Rhayader, is a great place to visit because it is home to some of the most beautiful dam-and-reservoir scenery in the country. The Elan Valley has a visitor centre with a café and a children's play area, as well as a number of walking and cycling trails (cycles may be rented in Rhayader). Visitor-friendly wildlife preserves abound in this region, which is dubbed the Wildlife Centre of Wales. Pony trekking is an option nearby as well. The Royal Welsh Agricultural Show, the Spring Festival, and the Winter Fair are all hosted in Builth Wells each year. Alternatively, a 34-mile trip through beautiful countryside will bring you to the Welsh coast.

    Bed was excellent and property was warm and well equipped. Great pub across the lane with excellent food. Very good area for walking the dog.

  • Danny

    The cottage had enough room for the two of us and our dog and we will definitely be back.

  • Julian

    Since our last visit it has undergone some significant improvements, which only add to its's overall appeal. Fab location, great pub on the doorstep serving beautiful home cooked food, together with a genuinely friendly team who always go the extra mile...what more can one wish for!
