Tienda cabaña con ducha caliente privada junto a la tienda con bañera de hidromasaje - 6 persona

We stayed end of august- large extended family group across a large age range. We hired 3 of the 4 tents (the 4th was unoccupied whilst we were staying). ||The positives- the farm is quite a long way uphill up a narrow track so the views across the hills and lake are stunning. The tents are laid out in 2 2s with space in front for children to set up badminton etc. Large grass field next to the tents for the kids to run and play in. Small chicken coop with 3 chickens which the kids enjoyed going to see. The surrounding area is beautiful. We visited the lake for paddling and the nearby Cerau Gardens which were great where they did us an amazing lunch for 13 of us (booking required for large groups).|| Llinos, the farmer, was welcoming when we arrived and provided a farm tour on the Saturday morning- this was lovely but be aware it requires at least wellies and preferably sturdy boots. It is a walk up into the hills to see the sheep and is rough under foot. It was a sunny morning and the views are just wonderful.||There is a small stocked shop under the farmhouse with a few essentials to buy and a wood pile with barrows to collect wood up the hill near the house.||The farm dog Jess (there is another we didnt see as much) visited us quite regularly, she was friendly and the kids played with her but she did pop by quite often so if you aren't a dog fan then just be aware she does roam around.||The beds at featherdown farms are very comfy! We slept really well!||The less good aspects- the tents are the typical Featherdown brand but were a little tired- the window flap mechanism for instance was no longer working so you had to operate from the outside only (not a massive problem). There was quite a random selection of kitchen equipment - muddled with other tents and had not been checked properly (previously we had equipment lists which does help with making sure stuff goes back to the right tents). There were missing towels from 2 tents and only 4 given for 5 of us in ours. The bedding was clean and fresh smelling but was marked and stained and some was quite 'thin'. The double beds were made up but for the rest we were given a slightly random selection of sheets and duvet covers which we '|made do with and used our own swimming towels in place of what should have been provided. Not all the beds had mattress protectors on and did look worn. There was no kitchen linen (teatowel/ ovengloves etc) as per the Featherdown list of provided equipment and no firelighters. We were told to go and get some from the farm shop. I had to borrow washing up liquid from the unoccupied tent. The cloth left to use for washing up was a sponge type cloth which was not clean/new. The tent was mostly clean- the floor still had footprints on from previous people and the toilet was not particularly clean. This was our second featherdown visit (different farm last time) and the 4th for one family in our group and the tents were the least well looked after/ equipped. Previous tents have been really spotless and 'just so' interms of bedding and towels etc.||After the walk we didn't see Llinos again and we didn't see her husband during our visit at all. This was fine for us but if you were expecting more hands on hosting or contact with the farmers or things to do on the farm then this one is much more simple an offering- make your own fun!| |We didn't have the advertised pizza night as the owner only suggested it late morning on our arrival day and we had already planned bbq food- it was also relatively expensive as we would have had to bring our own toppings aside from tomato and cheese (we have never experienced the BYO toppings before). Previous featherdown farms had provided drinks and even desserts as well as well as the toppings). Instead we bought takeaway pizzas in Bala that were excellent and better value for money overall.||Overall we had a fabulous time- mostly due to the location and the fact we were there as a big family group to catch up together. The small issues with the accommodation etc did not really detract from our stay. However it would be good if a little more care/attention to detail was given especially given the high costs of these holidays.

amazing

Our stay here was magic, the farmer is welcoming, engaging about his work and made it a fantastic experience. Being off the grid (water is plumbed in but no electricity) might seem daunting, but our young daughter, and us, had a really special time without modern conveniences. I can’t wait to stay again

The one bad review is a total fabrication, they had no intention of staying here. It's been written by a gentleman who came to our farm to "greenlane" which means taking their 4WD vehicle over our fields and literally leaving a mess behind them, as they seemed to think they had a right. There were 4 of them in a P Reg Red Daihatsu under the influence of drugs and using threatening behaviour. When confronted by myself, they became abusive but they soon disappeared when they realised the neighbours were on their way to help out.

Wow! The most gorgeous location and the lady hosting us was so very lovely- she couldn’t do enough to help. Our youngest son has cerebral palsy and can’t walk very far so after we refused a farm walk as it wasn’t really wheelchair friendly, she took him out (along with our older son) on a quad bike farm tour. It meant so much to us to see him so happy, both boys absolutely loved it 🥰||We are a family of 6, 15yo girl, 11yo boy, 5yo boy and a 6 month old baby. The accommodation suited everyone. We decided to have a tech free weekend, after a few initial moans the kids all loved it. It rained most of the time we were there but we still had a brilliant time and would definitely go back.||The children also absolutely loved Jess, the working farm dog, such a beautiful and friendly nature who popped by often to say hello. She is very well trained though so didn’t come into the canvas.||Thank you so much again! Would defo come back 😊
