Where to stay in Powys
You'll find everything here from hot-tub hideaways for two up to parks and big houses that swallow a three-generation get-together. Prices swing a lot by season — the listings above show the from-price so you can compare fairly before clicking through to book direct.
When to go
School summer holidays are peak season — glorious, busy and priciest. If you can travel in June or September you'll get much of the weather with fewer crowds and noticeably lower prices, while spring and autumn breaks can cost half of what August does.
