Property code: OC-95815

Tucked away in Mid Wales, this two-bedroom riverside property is perfect for a quiet getaway with your family and up to four canine companions. Wake up to the sound of flowing water and let the dogs out for a run around the spacious, enclosed garden before exploring your surroundings. You'll be within easy reach of forests, charming rural market towns and the Cambrian Mountains. In the evenings, you can warm your paws in front of the wood burner and get stuck into a book from this traditional cottage's dinky corner library.

Inside is an open-plan lounge/diner with an eye-catching exposed stone and wooden beamed feature. The space is decorated with neutral tones and a splash of red with two comfortable armchairs, a sofa and a wood burner in the lounge. Natural light pours through the floor-to-ceiling windows and patio doors which look out onto the river and countryside. Around the corner is a circular glass dining table with four chairs. Continue into the white and wooden 'U'-shaped kitchen with plenty of surface space for preparing a meal for your loved ones. Pass the library corner with an armchair to reach two bedrooms – a bunk bedroom with river views and a king-size bedroom with glass doors leading to the enclosed, waterside decked area. Completing the interior is a family shower room. Outside is a spacious garden with a patio, furniture and a BBQ. There is also private parking for two cars.

While staying near the village of Cwmbelan (0.5 miles), you can pick up essentials or dine out in the town of Llanidloes (1.5 miles). Lead the way to adventure with a trip into the wilderness of the Cambrian Mountains (4 miles). Spend a day at Llyn Clywedog Reservoir or sniff out the waterfalls in Hafren Forest (9.5 miles).

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 king-size (can be made into a twin on request), 1 bunk bedroom

A lovely cottage with a great view of the river. The river is not suitable for dogs much to my Labradors annoyance. The nearest dog walking field is 20 minutes away as surrounding fields all have livestock. The cottage is very cosy with a wonderful real fire. The TV is nice and big to cwtch up and watch a movie. We cooked in every day as limitedRead more takeaway options. We will be revisiting.

Response from holidaycottages.co.uk : Thank you for your feedback. During your stay, the river level was unusually high due to several weeks of heavy rain. In typical conditions it is suitable for dogs to enjoy safely. There are also several nearby areas for off-lead dog walks, and the owner is happy to recommend these, along with the range of takeaway options available just a mile away in Llanidloes. Were pleased to hear you found the cottage cosy and enjoyed the fire and the view.
