Newtown 12.8 miles.
Rurally-positioned in Llanbadarn Fynydd near Newtown, Powys, find this superb eight-bedroom holiday home, Hillside Lodge.
Benefitting from a main house with access to an enclosed garden with hot tub, spacious living areas for the whole family, dog-friendly accommodation and a woodburning stove, plus a single-storey annexe, offering some privacy, Hillside Lodge welcomes up to eighteen guests for an escape to Mid Wales.
Cross the threshold into your new home-from-home ready to kick back and relax in the spacious living/dining room, cosying up in front of the woodburning stove as your other half cooks up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen.
Lay the table, ready to tuck into a feast as the wine is poured and conversation flows, or head out into the enclosed garden to savour an alfresco affair with the rolling Welsh countryside in the distance; treat yourself to a toasty dip in the bubbling hot tub and stargaze the evening away before retreating to the ground-floor bathroom or shower room to wash away the day.
Choose from one of six neatly-presented bedrooms to unwind in before catching your rest ahead of another day of exciting adventures.
The annexe compromises of an open-plan living space, providing all the essentials for a self-catered stay, along with two well-appointed bedrooms, including a double and a bunk room.
Catch some rest before refreshing in the shower room, ahead of enjoying a coffee upon the elevated terrace.
