Absolutely nothing negative to say. Everything is immaculate, the hot tub being undercover is perfect so you can use it regardles of the weather. The best weekend away to switch off and recharge and the views are stunning!

First impressions of The Mountain View were positive. Very clean and a bottle of fizz and Welsh cakes on arrival.

We visited with our toddler and unfortunately found the space very cramped with little to no storage. This getaway would be ideal for a couples short stay - but would not recommend more than 2 people.

The accommodation itself is also slightly cut off and there are no walks available without having to get in your car. Not great for holidaymakers wanting to ditch the car and explore the surrounding area on foot.

Otherwise, a lovely little space with the added novelty of staying in a hobbit hole.



A great stay!

This stunning underground hobbit home was perfect for our break. It's in a very peaceful spot with outstanding views. Very modern inside and spotless. The covered hot tub was the big draw for us with our typical welsh weather. Perfect base for anyone who enjoys walking plus only a short drive from other lovely places. We would definitely stay here again to unwind.

What a place! Beautiful views and quiet.
Greeted with a lovely bottle, biscuits and a personalised note. Was great to be given a guide of amenities. Shame the pubs were not serving food this time of year but there was plenty to do locally and further afield.
Sky light at night is absolutely stunning.
Hot tub positioned really well to overlook stunning views.

We had a lovely couple of days away from everything, just what we needed. Location and views were perfect. Accommodation was exactly as described and a lovely welcome gift. If you want to get away from the world and recharge your batteries Mountain View is perfect as it is so beautiful and peaceful. The hot tub was great to relax in and look at the view.



Everything & More!!! If you havent already, get booking!!!!

Wow. Where do we start!!! I booked Mountain View as me and my girlfriend are both HUGE hobbit/Lotr fans and have always dreamed of waking up to views similar to that of the Shire…. And Mountain View ticks all the boxes!

First of all, the facilities are everything you need and more! Mountain View (& Valley View) come with a seating area that doubles up as a sofa bed, so even as a couple we enjoyed setting the sofa bed up for movie nights!! There are bar stools near the counter which we used to eat both first and second breakfast (IYKYK), which strategically slide under the counter to create a more open floorplan. The kitchen was kitted with everything you need to create some amazing meals, and hilltop holidays provide informative booklets so you know how to use the oven and hob! The kitchen sink tap is a bit strong so it does splash up onto the counter if you arent careful but its perfect once you find the perfect stream! Hidden inside the foot stool were some colouring books and crayons which i thought was a nice touch for those who may have young children with them! The bed area was so snug and cosy! With the most perfect skylight (which was perfect both with the sun and rain as the noise was amazing!) Theres a little light at the end of the bed which provides a nice light to fall asleep too! The bed also comes equipped with a bluetooth speaker (which filters throughout the whole home) which you can only hear inside the hut. Theres also 2 plug sockets and 2 seperate USB Ports! Alongside the bed is a hidden storage area which houses a broom and extra duvet which is perfect.

The bathroom is everything, i wish there was a slightly bigger mirror, but other than that it is packed with everything you need! The shower has lights in it which i thought was so high-end and theres also a heated towel rail and underfloor heating!

The hot tub was… something else… wow! We spent the majority of our time in here as the comfort mixed with the views was a dream come true!

We fell in love from the moment we arrived and even extended our stay from 2 nights to 4! We will definitely be returning and will recommend hilltop holidays & Mountain View to anybody and everybody!!!

I cannot recommend Mountain View enough. From wonderful hosts, breathtaking views, spotlessly clean and everything you could need, it was just magical! The town has a fantastic butchers and all within easy distance. We will definitely be coming back, as soon as we can! Thank you Richard & Sylvia for letting us share a little piece of heaven!



An amazing stay!

From the very thoughtful welcome with bubbly and Welsh cakes to the spotless quirky and just perfect hobbit house, we knew this was a great choice.
Nothing can beat the view from the window (or top quality hot tub) we have just had 6 peaceful days here and can't wait to return.
Everything is well thought out and well equipped. It is the most amazing way to just switch off for a few days. You can hook up your music to the inbuilt Bluetooth speakers and just relax. There are just 2 hobbit houses here which are perfectly positioned so you don't even know the other is there and both have absolutely stunning views.
The hosts were not far if needed, the hot tub checked daily and just really lovely people :-) you could see from every detail they really put so much thought into it.
There is a lovely steam train ride into welshpool from the bottom of the hill, a folder full of recommended places to visit and I can't not mention the butcher's (Pandy's) where, in addition to top quality meat and cooked produce, we found lovely local honey, homemade cakes and fresh veg.
It's a romantic getaway for many, we went with 2 children (8&9) and they loved it too, my youngest is autistic and the first thing he said was he felt safe, he also had the freedom to run around outside without us worrying and he was so calm, he would have happily stayed for the summer! we were 15 minutes late leaving as my son was so upset to go and wouldn't get in the car, he is still asking to go back :-)
We left feeling like we had all relaxed and taken a break, which never happens!
Would highly recommend ❤️

The hobbit house was an incredible place to stay, from location and local places to go and visit, it truly was an experience i'd recommend to anybody.
The place itself is tucked away so you feel peaceful and could truly relax in the evenings with an amazing view outside, with plenty of places to go and visit and activities to go and do within the local areas.

Great location with amazing views! Mountain View was exceptionally clean and couldn’t find a fault with the hobbit hole! 10/10 would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing, peaceful weekend break! Loved the hot tub area and the wild grass surrounding the property!

It's not very often you find a purpose built location that has been completed with pride in their work. Everything was completed to a high standard, lovely location with fantastic views.

The only thing that was a draw back for us was the privacy during the dark. But due to the location and so far out the way it was soon forgotten about.

Hot tub was fantastic quality as well, and the built in bluetooth inside was a nice touch. Well worth the money.
