Badgers View – Unique Underground Stay in the Heart of Mid Wales
Tucked into the hillside of rural Mid Wales, Badgers View is a truly one-of-a-kind underground house that promises a stay to remember.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape or an adventurous base to explore the wonders of Wales, this cosy yet quirky retreat ticks all the boxes – and your bucket list. Just a short drive from the lively market town of Rhayader, this family-friendly hideaway is perfectly placed for discovering the breathtaking Elan Valley, the Gilfach Nature Reserve, and plenty of local charm. Step inside from the idyllic outdoor space and into the heart of the home – an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area designed for connection and comfort.
The kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, and a fridge with freezer.
The large dining area, complete with high stools, is the perfect spot for sharing meals, laughter, and even a round of your favourite board game. Sleeping up to six guests, Badgers View features two king-size bedrooms and a cosy bunk room that children will love – their very own "secret burrow." Choose the king room with direct access to the patio for those easy morning dips in the hot tub. Each bedroom is beautifully appointed with crisp white linens and plush bedding for a restful night and well-deserved lie-in. Outside, your private garden space overlooks uninterrupted countryside views – the ideal setting for soaking in the hot tub with a glass of bubbly or gathering around the fire pit to toast marshmallows under the stars.
With the round Hobbit-style windows and snug underground charm, this property truly feels like something out of a storybook. Whether you’re planning a romantic retreat, a family adventure, or a relaxing break with friends (and your furry companion), Badgers View offers a magical and memorable escape in one of Wales’ most scenic locations. Book your stay at Badgers View and discover the joy of going underground – comfort, charm, and countryside bliss await. Up to two dogs welcome but must be kept off the furniture and on a lead . Please be aware that there will be Moto Cross activity on the track that neighbours this site on the following dates: 28th-29th March, 25th-26th April, 27th May & 6th-9th August. PLEASE NOTE: The hot tub may take 8-10 hours to heat up on change over day.

Fantastic location and loved the accommodation, however it was very wet and windy when we stayed and there was water dripping through the lights in the kitchen onto our backs when we were eating at the table. One of the bedrooms had water coming through the door making it very damp. It seems maybe it could have done with some TLC to make sure these issues are sorted.
