"We loved the peaceful vibe here, the surroundings are just lovely and really calming. The place was spotless and comfy, with all the essentials. Wed probably avoid peak times because of the play area nearby, but mid-March was perfect. Plenty to explore around, especially Lake Vyrnwy and Powis Castle. The Nags Head Inn nearby is perfect for a sunny pint and bite."

"Our Penllwyn Lodges review: We really enjoyed our stay at the lodge. It had everything we needed and the outdoor space was super secure, which was perfect since we took our dog along. We always feel better knowing he's safe outside. The place had a charming rustic vibe, with plenty of wooden touches that made it feel cosy. Sure, some fixtures looked a bit tired and could do with a refresh, but nothing that spoiled our stay. One thing to note is the bathroom setup-it's advertised as having an en-suite, but really, its just a shower behind a curtain in one of the bedrooms, with only one toilet in the main bathroom. Not a big deal, just something to be aware of. Overall, we were happy with everything and would definitely come back. Just a bit of updating on the fixtures and itd be even better!"

"We've stayed at Murray Spa twice now and honestly, we really enjoy it. Its perfect for our little ones and the dogs, thanks to the balcony with gates - such a bonus! The only downsides for us are the view from the lodge, which overlooks the road rather than the stunning Welsh scenery and we do think the cleanliness could be better. That said, the staff are fantastic and always go the extra mile to make sure were comfortable. Well be back!"

"We loved the lodge! The sofa was super comfy and the big TV made relaxing even better. More lights above dining would be great though, but otherwise, really lovely place!"
Emma - Mar 2024
"We had an absolutely fantastic time at the lodge! The location is stunning, surrounded by nature thats just breathtaking. The staff really go above and beyond - Emma kept us well informed when there was a power cut on our first morning, which we appreciated. The cabin itself felt so cosy and well-equipped; the kitchen had everything we needed, from a full cooker to a big fridge and all the cutlery. One thing wed suggest is a hairdryer - drying towels after using the hot tub was a bit of a faff, especially with only one radiator in the bathroom. Itd also be great to have a designated space for drying multiple towels and swimwear. Overall, we loved it and are already planning our next stay!"

"A beautiful and peaceful location, lodge had everything we needed and had a wonderful relaxed break. Only 1 thing to note accessibility the lodges are spaced around a very steep and windy road."
Kerry - Jul 2022
"This was our fifth visit to Penllwyn Lodges. Its a peaceful site with the lodges set in a wooded area.
When we first visited years ago the fishing lake did have fish in it but in recent times this seems to have changed. I asked at reception about the fishing and was told they no longer advertise it as a fishing lake."
