About this property
Ty Haf is a delightful stone cottage based in Carno, Wales, situated in the owner's caravan park. Internally, the property has been renovated into a stylish holiday home, while still retaining its original features, such as the exposed beams and a feature brick pillar. The open-plan living area allows for everyone to get together and discuss plans for how to spend your time in Mid Wales while either relaxing into the sumptuous seating or pouring over maps and guides around the table, and with so much to see and do along this part of Wales, you really will have to plan your days. Cook up a delicious meal in the kitchen and gather around the dining table in the lounge to discuss the events from the day over a bottle of wine. Offering two bedrooms, one double and one twin, with a ground floor family shower room. The site has access to the on-site facilities at the caravan park, including a games room with table tennis and a pool table, plus an outdoor pool and a children's play area, there's so much to do within a minute's walk from your holiday cottage. Tempting though it might be to spend your whole break here soaking it all in, there’s a huge choice of things to do to suit all ages and tastes. Take part in all manner of walking, cycling, sport and leisure activities, as well as easy access to theatres, museums, galleries and arts centres. Let's not forget the abundance of historical architecture in the area, including castles and country homes. Ty Haf is a wonderful base for exploring all Mid-Wales has to offer.
Carno is a village in Powys, Wales. The site dates back to the Roman era, with a village store and pub for the essentials. It is best known for being the first place a Laura Ashley factory was. Newtown is just over ten miles away, and boasting plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as museums and art galleries to explore.

The adjacent caravan park was quiet whilst we visited. It's a good location for visiting the mid wales attractions & about a 40 minute drive to the coast. The local pub, about 10 minutes easy walk away serves excellent food & drinks were excellent value. The enclosed front & rear garden areas are well suited to keeping the dogs contained. the hot tub is a nice bonus. Ty Haf is very well equipped & the welcome provisions were a nice gesture. We'd return without hesitation. Dave, Debbie & the doggies

Extremely comfy beds. Well laid out only issues ice box door broken in the fridge so doesnât close properly and airer for drying clothes is broken. Very quiet and peaceful stay kids enjoyed the games room. Lovely spending evenings in the hot tub watching the bats fly around.

The cottage is on the caravan park but is nicely sectioned off and fairly secluded. Stargazing from the hot tub is the highlight of this place and the local pub does fantastic food. Unfortunately the boiler broke down during our visit. The owner did very quickly provide us with some electric heaters but it wasn't as relaxing as it should have been having a plumber coming and going. The reason for just 3 stars is that the bathroom lets the place down. There is a non-working storage heater still in place, holes in the wall where a towel rail has been replaced, condensation mould in a few places, shower not great and the room is only heated by a towel rail, which isn't enough to heat the whole room in Winter. Lovely big kitchen table but sofa has been changed from the photos, was fine for two but would be very cosy for four. It was the same cost for 4 nights as for a standard weekend of 2 nights; I would have been fuming if I had paid £200 a night.
