TY RAY PENMAES
Rhayader, Mid Wales
A welcoming place to stay in Mid Wales,
with a story of its own.

Hello, I’m Nami.
I had never run a holiday let before.
I simply had an idea, a property, a lot of determination — and no idea quite how much I was about to learn.
I remember being up the ladders stripping wallpaper and painting the walls. Nine months of making a house a home, hands-on from start to finish. Expecting my second child, and a first guest to welcome in March 2024. This is Ty Ray Penmaes — and this is our story.
A little more about meNot just a place to sleep.
A place to feel at home.


Room to gather, space to breathe, and the Welsh countryside on your doorstep.

Some places ask you
to slow down.
The Elan Valley. Red kites overhead. Riverside walks.
A small town with a very big heart.
The best stories belong to our guests.
Real stays. Real words. Our guest book is being gathered, with permission from the people who stayed.
Could you run
a holiday let?
I had never done it before. This is what I wish someone had told me. The decisions, the day-to-day work, and the things that don’t make it into the photographs.

with a story.
Ty Ray Penmaes has been a very personal project for me. I often call it my “nine-month project” because the journey from start to finish coincided with my pregnancy with my second child.
From stripping wallpaper to painting the walls, every stage has a memory attached to it.
Made with care, and a story behind every corner.
With love, Nami
