Property code: OC-75703

This idyllic cottage retreat is set in beautiful countryside just 8.5 miles outside Welshpool. Offering an open-plan kitchen/diner and the use of a shared games room and enclosed shared garden, it is a tranquil environment where small dog-owning families can come to relax and reconnect with nature.

The cottage offers a blend of traditional rural decor and contemporary style which will appeal to modern guests. The wonderful oak-beamed lounge has a brick fireplace as its centrepiece, a comforting area for all to gather at all hours, with French doors learning out into the garden. The open-plan kitchen/diner features a beamed ceiling and farmhouse furnishings, the perfect setting for lazy brunches or guilt-free dinners. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms: one twin and one king, one of which can be converted to two single beds on request, stand close to a characterful bathroom. The enclosed garden, shared with a neighbouring cottage, is a lovely place to relax, but more active guests will love the shared games room that sits next door. For the ultimate farm experience, guests can watch the daily milking from the purpose-built viewing balcony or meet the owner’s Kunekune pet pigs. Two rivers, the Vyrnwy and Banwy, flow past the cottage, ideal for fishing.

Walkers can best absorb this stunning pocket of Mid Wales simply by picking up Glyndwr''s Way at Meifod (1.5 miles) or the Ann Griffiths Walk at Pontrobert (3 miles) taking in jaw-dropping landscapes as they go. The Llanfair Light Railway (4 miles) offers a more time-efficient and less strenuous way to see the area. Many a pub and eatery in the market town of Welshpool (10 miles) welcomes four-pawed patrons, with umpteen walks and trails passing through its centre.

Lovely spacious cottage in a beautiful rural setting; great views. Though we didn't use it, seems a great bonus to have the additional, separate games room. Host was friendly and welcoming. Enjoyed the novelty of being in the middle of farm life!

This is a lovely and very well equipped cottage in a beautiful area of mid wales. It is in the middle of a working farm so we enjoyed feeding the pigs and stroking the donkeys and the many cats and watching the cows being milked. It is worth being aware that as a working farm you will hear the milking starting very early and and the tractors will Read morebe up and down doing their work. But you will also have the convenience of walking a few steps to the shed to collect your bottle of fresh milk and adding some flavours for a delicious milkshake which our kids took full advantage of. If you want total peace and tranquility, this may not be for you, but we enjoyed the home from home comforts and the digital detox (no WiFi but good 4G). Hide
