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.

Summary: We had a fantastic stay in Gellilas. Brilliant experience being in a hobbit home. The location is superb with loads to do nearby. Inside the home was spotless and made a very good first impression. We did however notice a few points that could easily be rectified and would have made this a more comfortable experience. Firstly the seating bonquette style was extremely uncomfortable and in our opinion totally unnecessary as a corner sofa would have fitted easily. Not only was it uncomfortable we were sticking to the seating, wearing shorts as it was hot weather. Secondly the tv was preset to only have bbc channels available all the other channels were via apps so needed to have logins created, we didn’t feel safe doing this as our details might be seen by future guests. Maybe a company log in would negate this issue. Lastly a number of floorboards had risen or worn which would have the potential to cause a trip/injury. As we said these are minor issues and did not detract from the time we spent there and it would not stop us from using Holidays Wales or this site again but maybe not Badgers View.
