Kim & Chris Ewen

We are SO excited to welcome you to our home! As the founders of XL Escapes, we pour our hearts into creating a space where you can relax, unwind, and make lasting memories.

With two rescue dogs—Holly from Bosnia and Buddy from All Bullie Rescue—and Nala, our beautiful ginger cat (and undisputed Queen of the house), we understand how important it is to feel not just at home, but truly content and relaxed—especially when traveling with your furry companions.

Our goal is to offer more than just a holiday; we want to provide a home away from home where you can escape daily pressures, have a laugh, and enjoy quality time with loved ones. Whether it’s a cosy night in, exploring the local area, or simply making time for yourself, we’re here to make your stay special.

If you have any requests—big or small—just let us know. We’re always happy to help (and we love an excuse to bring a smile to your face, drink in hand, of course!).

Meet Your Hosts

Your hosts, Dafydd and Pippa, live on the farm with their own dogs and understand the needs of multi-dog and reactive-dog families. They’ve gone the extra mile to design a hut that’s both accessible and dog-friendly, ensuring independence for wheelchair users and freedom for dogs. Regular returning guests — often with multiple dogs — are proof of the warm welcome and thoughtful details.

XL Escapes Peace Of Mind Promise

Every business you see on XL Escapes has confirmed to us that they welcome XL Bullies. Before being listed, we ask the questions we’d want answered ourselves — from real experience living and travelling with XL and reactive dogs. That includes confirming they are happy to host XL Bullies, that their listing details are accurate, and that they’ve considered their own legal and insurance responsibilities. We don’t assume. We don’t guess. We ask — and they confirm. If anything changes or a business doesn’t stand by what they’ve told us, we take it seriously. If a business listed on XL Escapes turns you away because of your dogs breed, contact us. We will review it, remove them if necessary, and refund your membership.

Full Property Description:

Hafan y Mynydd is part of Dulas Glamping, tucked into the hills near Machynlleth.

Inside, you’ll find underfloor heating, a modern wetroom, and a fully equipped kitchen with an adjustable-height worktop.

There’s also a 32” Smart HD TV, rise-and-recliner chairs, and fast Starlink WiFi. Outside is just as special. The private ¼ acre garden is enclosed by 6ft 6 fencing and split by a gated divider, giving you the option to separate dogs if needed. Dogs are allowed everywhere — on beds, sofas, and in the garden.
