The Rhiw
Description
Nestled in the peaceful village of New Mills, just 3.8 miles from Llanfair Caereinion, The Rhiw is a stylish luxury pod offering breathtaking panoramic views over the Powys countryside. Set within the owner’s grounds and reached via 29 steps, this elevated retreat rewards you with stunning scenery and total tranquillity - perfect for a romantic getaway in mid Wales.
As you reach the top of the steps, the sweeping views of the surrounding valley and the flowing river Rhiw create an immediate sense of escape. The pod’s unique curved L shaped design and cosy rustic décor create a warm, inviting atmosphere for couples seeking a relaxing break.
Step inside the cleverly designed open plan living area, where everything you need for a comfortable stay has been thoughtfully arranged. The compact yet well equipped kitchen includes a combi microwave/oven, fridge and air fryer - ideal for preparing simple meals to enjoy at the intimate dining space. After a day exploring the local area, curl up on the sofa and unwind with your favourite films on the Smart TV.
The plush king-size bed, built neatly into the structure with integrated storage, guarantees a restful night, while the adjoining modern shower room features a heated towel rail, vanity mirror, and direct access to the terrace - perfect for stepping straight inside after enjoying the hot tub.
Outside is where The Rhiw truly shines. Enjoy an evening dip in the private hot tub, take in the uninterrupted views with a glass of something cold, or make the most of the lawned area with its fire pit and gas barbecue. Whether relaxing in the sunshine or stargazing under the clear Welsh skies, this peaceful space offers the ideal setting for reconnecting and unwinding.
With a pub just over a mile away and plenty of walking routes nearby, you’re perfectly placed to explore the best of mid Wales. Visit the world famous Powis Castle and its spectacular gardens, take gentle woodland walks around Gregynog Hall, or spend time discovering the museums, riverside trails and medieval sites of Newtown. For adventure seekers, Roomination Escape Games in Llanfyllin offers a unique and thrilling experience. If you’re looking for a truly memorable day out, the iconic Italian style village of Portmeirion is within easy reach too.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, escaping for a romantic retreat, or simply craving a peaceful break surrounded by nature, The Rhiw provides a unique and luxurious stay in the heart of Powys.

What guests are saying
The whole site is stunning - we have an old dog who isn’t great with other dogs and can’t walk far so the secure outdoor space was ideal and she loved it.
It’s beautiful and peaceful. Inside is a lovely set up but unfortunately I have severe phobia of spiders and due to location and the way the bed is built into the pod there’s a lot of space for them to hide - if they don’t bother you this is the most perfect relaxing place with beautiful views and a lovely host.
Perfect location to relax and unwind, so peaceful and stunning views.
Would definitely recommend. Nickie is the perfect host, very welcoming and helpful.
