HOT TUB | PET FRIENDLY | PARKING | FIRE PIT | VIEWS
Discover Hares View: A Unique Underground Retreat-
Hares View is just one of a cluster of magical homes set in the hillside of rural Mid Wales, stunning round windows give a feeling of being in a ‘burrow' and allow the natural light to flood in and brighten up your stay. The views from this property are simply breath-taking and far reaching, this is a truly unique place to stay and one you will remember for a long time.

Enter the property from the idyllic outside area and you are greeted by the pristine open plan living/dining & kitchen area, the hub of the Underground House where memories will truly be made.

The kitchen comes complete with oven, hob, microwave, kettle & toaster as well as a fridge with freezer space and a large dining area with high stools, the perfect place to enjoy that family favourite supper or get engrossed in a board game.

Hares View is the perfect stay for up to five adults,with two king sized bedrooms & a bunk room, be sure to grab the king room with the doors onto the patio area for easy access to the hot tub! These bedrooms boast crisp, white bedding and the perfect place to relax and make the most of that much needed lie in you have been promising yourself.

The outside space at this property really is idyllic, your own private area overlooking one of Wales' best views, you really need to see it to believe it! Relax with a glass of your favourite bubbly in the exclusive hot tub and then later at night toast gooey marshmallows over the fire pit.

Comfortable and deceptively light and airy, the excitement may be too much for everyone as you tuck yourselves in for your first night in your ‘den'. Beautiful quirky features, all mod cons, enjoy the feeling of being tucked away or sit out on the undulating hillside, sink into the hot tub and enjoy the views.

Located near the bustling market town of Rhayader, venture out and enjoy the lovely places to eat, watch the Red Kites fed locally, explore the majestic Elan Valley or enjoy a mosey in the local Gilfach Nature Reserve, there really is endless opportunities to explore.

Up to two dogs welcome but must be kept off the furniture and on a lead when outside.

Lovely outdoor experience with beautiful surroundings.

We love the beautiful surroundings in the comfort of the hobbit home. The only feedback is the goats that come in a herd and seem pretty hostile. It was not pleasant experience. Thank goodness it was only for one evening. But overall it was fabulous stay.

A cosy and charming Hobbit hole

My husband and I stayed in the 'Hares View' cottage for our 10th Wedding Anniversary with our two little boys. We were blown away at how idyllic the setting and view were, and how well equipped and laid out the cottage was. As Tolkien fans, we were almost transported to Middle Earth due to how quaint and cosy it was. The hot tub and free waffles were a lovely touch! We'll definitely be back.

An absolute must place to stay

I highly recommend anyone to stay at Hares View, especially if they fancy somewhere different, fun & quirky. Situated in a picturesque area with unspoiled views for miles. The quaint village of Rhayader is just 2 miles from the site, where there is many shops & places to eat. The accommodation is completely private, with no one overlooking. Therefore, it is very relaxing when chilling in the hot tub. We’ll definitely be returning at some point.

Lovely Hobbit Experience

A lovely underground hobbit hole holiday home, with stunning views. Beautifully presented and clean, highly recommended. Sofa could do with an upgrade as you can’t sit back due to the roof, (we used the outside patio furniture) and curtains need little hooks to cover side windows. Would benefit from a sign on the entrance so you know you entering the right driveway too. Overall would love to stay again and try out the other accommodation on site.

Short break for a birthday celebration

The stay was for a surprise birthday treat, my wife was overjoyed and a little overwhelmed, especially with the birthday decorations being put up ready for arrival. Communication prior to arrival was very professional and helpful. I opted for a breakfast hamper, which had absolutely lovely produce inside, perfect for anyone arriving late evening. It certainly saves on the last minute shopping, as it's a couple of miles into town, and a good 20 minutes drive archway to larger supermarkets. Rooms were nice, clean and comfortable. Hot tub was also a hit with everyone too.

We will be back!

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Hare's View Lodge! The breathtaking views are truly captivating and hard to beat, setting the scene for a relaxing or activity-packed getaway—whatever you make of it. The accommodation itself is spacious, spotlessly clean, well-equipped, and clearly well looked after. If I had to mention a minor detail, it’s that the seating area could be a bit more comfortable for a family of four. The corner seating is up against the lodge’s curved walls, so it’s a bit tricky to sit upright. A couple of bean bags or extra seating options would make it perfect, but that’s just me being picky! Overall, it’s an amazing location that everyone in our group enjoyed—kids, adults, and even the dog! Great value for money, and we’ll absolutely be back (maybe with our own bean bags or camp chairs!).
