Mid Wales

South Wales
From the bright lights of the capital city to the rolling surf of the Gower and rugged Pembrokeshire, the South is ‘beginner’s Wales’.
You're guaranteed a big Welsh welcome
Welcome to Rare Hideaways, a new venture with a long track record. If you know the Welsh hotels scene then you’ll probably be familiar with Welsh Rarebits, a scheme founded over 30 years ago. Synonymous with quality, hospitality and value for money, its members include many of the top hotels in Wales. Rarebits was later adapted to a sister scheme, Great Little Places, a collection of smaller hotels, inns and guest houses which again has been most successful.
We’ve now taken the Rarebits concept and applied it to self-catering, still focusing on those essential virtues – quality, comfort, style, character, welcome and value – that are the cornerstones of the hotel collection. And, as with Rarebits, membership of Rare Hideaways is by invitation only.
Wales now has some of the most luxurious and stylish self-catering properties on the planet. And we’re also pleased to report that the ‘people factor’ – that all-important element of hospitality that plays such a part in Welsh Rarebits continuing success – is also present in Rare Hideaways, with owners going that extra mile to look after their guests.
