"We were absolutely thrilled by The Old Farmhouse: a historic building with original beams, imaginatively renovated with high-specification utilities and providing the most beautiful views."
Useful stairgate for our sleepwalking child. Heating was cosy (less so in the downstairs bedroom, although the excellent shower room adjacent compensated!) The wood burner in the main sitting room made a lovely atmosphere on 3 of our evenings. The grass area outside was useful for the children. It was nice to have welcoming flowers; the barabrith and butter awaiting our arrival on the big kitchen table were delicious and much appreciated too! All 3 generations loved the place. Well worth the steep drive up Pitts Lane!

"Lovely house set in some beautiful, tranquil countryside."
The log burners kept us all really cosy. Great space and facilities for a large group.
-
"We had a fantastic time, the cottage was perfect for our extended family get together, with plenty of room for everyone and in gorgeous setting."
Loads of space for the kids to romp about, whilst the grown ups could relax and enjoy the peace. The cottage itself is in wonderful condition and is supplied with everything you could want. The hosts were attentive and communicative without being in any way intrusive. Would definitely recommend and hope we can get there again some time!

"We had a wonderful stay at the Old Farm House."
It was the perfect location for a catch up with old friends. A house in beautiful surroundings, with plenty of space to be together or retreat as needed, as well as interesting places to go and see if we felt like being out and about. We will be back!
-
"Loved our week as a family group."
Children really enjoyed running about in the garden in a safe environment. Kitchen had everything required for catering for a large group. Beautiful countryside and quiet location only a short drive from town.

"An absolutely fantastic house!"
We all had a terrific time. The rooms are all an excellent size (one was smaller but perfect for the children in our party), with the superking beds being incredibly comfortable! When we got there the house was incredibly clean and we even had freshly cut flowers from the garden, cake and local butter waiting for us. The house is in a perfect spot for exploring the local area: Knighton to walk along the Offa Dyke or pick up supplies from the surprisingly large coop, Presteigne, Ludlow and red kite feeding centre. The small animal petting zoo was great for kids too. The garden was fully secure for our 2 dogs, and large seating area outside meant we could have many meals together in the garden. The view is amazing, not another house in sight! We used the sun loungers to watch the meteor shower on clear nights, and could even see the Milky Way. We even had access to a fully enclosed orchard too. The cows and their calves came right up to the fence, we even saw twin calves! The hosts were fantastic, we received a call before we arrived asking our arrangements for the beds (they are all zip and link so can all be turned into singles), there is no travel cot or high chair (but there is a booster seat that can strap on to the dining room chairs), but we just brought our own so this wasn’t a problem. We had 4 vehicles and there was more than enough space for all of our cars too. Every member of our party absolutely loved the house, thank you!

"Delightful property."
Downstairs bedroom very private. Good bathrooms. Well equipped kitchen. Nice garden spaces. Friendly helpful owners. Excellent nature watching. Dark-skies for star gazing. Good local food options.

"The Old Farmhouse is a brilliant place for a week."
The accommodation was spotless and as a family of 6 we found no faults at all! The layout, contents and equipment was all first class. The beds so incredibly comfortable! The setting is so peaceful and the sunsets just magical with a choice of at least 4 areas to view them from. The farmer was very friendly. We highly recommend this property and we found plenty to do as a family although we all loved it when we returned to The Old Farmhouse each day.

"Absolutely wonderful house for a reunion of old school friends."
Ladies requiring comfort and cleanliness and we got it in spades. The photos don’t do justice to this gorgeous house and we all loved it and the area. Wonderful views and walking on tap.
-
"Perfect property for kids, adults, babies and dogs!"
A beautiful setting and plenty to do in the area. The kitchen was well equipped. The property was very clean. The owners are wonderful - helpful, friendly and even bought Minty the sheep round for the kids the stroke!!
So pleased you had a good time Property Owner

"Very rural and experience."
If you want to get away from the city and be amongst nature and farming, this is the place.

"We had a fabulous time at the old farmhouse."
The house has spectacular views across the countryside which can be enjoyed from the garden and from the big window in the living room. The house has all the facilities we needed for a large family gathering, with the wonderful farmhouse kitchen being kitted out really well. The owners were welcoming and accommodating and even brought some new born lambs for the grandchildren to cuddle. We would highly recommend the old farmhouse and would love to go again.

"Our holiday at the old farm house was fabulous, so clean comfortable and welcoming ."
Unfortunately the weather wasn’t very kind to us but having a lovely warm house to come back to was a bonus and enjoyed the log burner in the evenings, the views from the house were beautiful so relaxing and we’re lucky to see lambs being born and a baby calf only a few days old in the fields surrounding the house. Steve the farmer was great with the children and brought some newborns right to the house so we could see them up close and thank you Steve for our interesting chats! We all enjoyed the bara brith and the fresh flowers left for us. We are a family ranging from 10 years to 77 years and all enjoyed the space, comfort and facilities of the Old Farm House and would recommend it for a fabulous holiday The Mitchell family

"We had an absolutely lovely time at The Old Farmhouse."
Thank you for making your beautiful property available for us to rent, for the comfortable interior and beautifully managed exterior and Thank you for the generous hospitality and kindness shown to us while we were there. We felt free and relaxed enough to enjoy our time together as a family, but confident if we had any questions or queries they would be answered swiftly and openly. The Gentleman we chatted to as and when we needed anything, was very warm, friendly and helpful & his help and knowledge was very much appreciated. Overall a lovely stay in a beautiful house.
-
"A very well appointed and comfortable cottage which provided every need for our party of 10."
The Christmas decorations were a bonus for our celebration of a "significant" birthday for one of our group, and New Year as well. There was ample parking for all our cars (we had gathered from various parts of the country). The views from the cottage are spectacular, even in the rain! Thanks again for a wonderful week.

"We had a great Christmas at the Old Farmhouse."
It's a lovely big house (very comfortable beds) and views from every window. Decorations had been put up for Christmas and the two woodburners really added to the festive feel. The garden was great for our two labradors - enclosed and safe to let them run around. There was a storm while we were there and Stephen, from the farm, came over the following day to check that all was well. It's a lovely area and everyone we met was friendly and welcoming (including the people who look after the house, the neighbours and in the shops in the town). The house is situated up a narrow lane, but it's a quiet lane and we only really came across the postman, so it wasn't a problem - and approaching from the road to the south was even quieter. We all said we'd love to return in warmer months to be able to enjoy the garden more.
-
"A beautiful cottage in amazing surroundings!"
The area is really lovely with plenty of nearby walks to explore. The cottage itself is very well equipped and the beds are super comfy. On the cloudless nights we had probably some of the best views of the stars I've seen in years as there is very little light pollution in the area, it's great for star gazing. We had a very relaxing stay - thank you Elizabeth!
-
"Fabulous house in a stunning setting."
High quality fixtures and furnishings couldn't fault it and spotless . Elizabeth very helpful pre arrival re bed configuration etc and Stephen from the farm very helpful. Highly recommend.
-
"Warm welcome from Stephen to a beautiful holiday home."
The house was lovely the view was amazing! The dog friendly aspect was exceptional, bowls, blankets, toys, and a luxury bed! The superb weather was a bonus so much that for two days we did not explore the area - we just sat outside and enjoyed that gorgeous view. The Bara Brith and flowers in the house added to the welcome - thanks for sharing The Old Farmouse.
-
"We had a wonderful family weekend at this beautiful house with stunning views."
The house was spotlessly clean, with homemade cake, butter and fresh milk to welcome us. The owners couldn't do enough for us either. We will definitely be going back and recommending to our family and friends. Many thanks
-
"We had a lovely family holiday at The Old Farmhouse."
The property was spacious and well appointed, with stunning views over the hillsides. It was peaceful, but only a short drive from Knighton and plenty of other places to visit nearby. We would definitely recommend staying at this property.
-
"Just back from a lovely week at The Old Farmhouse."
Welsh fruit loaf waiting when we arrived, lovely with a cup of tea after a long drive. The farmhouse was comfortable and clean, plenty of space in the bedrooms. Had everything you needed in the kitchen. Very dog friendly. Garden enclosed so she could have a great run around without the worry of her getting out. There were cows in the field at the end of the garden which the grandchildren loved. One of the cows had a calf while we were there. Grandchildren loved seeing “the baby cow”. We would go again.
-
"We all absolutely loved our stay here at the old farmhouse, it was brilliant."
Perfect place for my family to come to play and spend quality time. The inside of the house is perfectly lay out and was extremely tidy and clean, the views are also amazing! We will definitely be returning thank you very much!
-
"Wonderful views and seating areas, inside and out."
Plenty of space for sharing with the family. Enjoyed the local walks and vista. Plenty of room in the property to all be together comfortably in one living area, or find our own reading nooks separately. Secure garden and orchard great. Large windows in lounge a joy on rainy days, able to watch wildlife and farm animals inside or out. No horrid farmyard smells, fresh air was great!
-
"Could not fault the cottage."
There were some silly little things. I have notified the owners. These were simple things that did not affect the overall stay. If I had to score it would be a definite 10/10. Beds were so comfy and quality exceptional. I slept so well the whole week. Facilities were of the highest standard, and easy to use. Met one of the owners who is a farmer Steve next door, and his wife. Lovely couple and very helpful. View beautiful and having sheep and cows right next to us was being absolutely in the countryside at its very best. Would highly recommend it. Also the CO-OP a short drive away had literally everything you would need. Its like walking into a Tardis. Oh and one more thing. On arrival we were met by gorgeous flowers, welsh tea bread and butter. I so enjoy the tea bread, i just had to buy more to bring home. Thank you. Xx

"Second visit to this fantastic property loved every minute"
-
"A réal home from home."
The house was spotlessly clean. The farmer was very welcoming. The views were lovely and the young calves in the fields near the house, an additional bonus. We would love to stay again
-
"We all had a lovely time staying at The Old Farmhouse."
It was perfect, stunning location we were watching the Red Kites flying in the valley from the patio, beautiful. The house was superb, extremely well equipped comfortable, clean and tidy. Thank you.
-
"This is the second time we have stayed at The Old Farmhouse, and it was another fantastic weekend."
The house is brilliant - lots of space for 3 families including three 10 year olds. Very comfortable, clean, well-equipped, amazing views - I could go on! As previously, communication with the owner ahead of our visit and during the weekend was great. We would definitely recommend The Old Farmhouse.
-
"This is the best property we’ve ever rented!"
The location, the interior design and comfort factor are off the scales! We’ve booked three times and we are going back for more. Book in advance to avoid disappointment!
-
"What a fantastic house with absolutely superb views."
It had been decorated all over for Xmas including a lovely Xmas tree in the very spacious lounge which was much appreciated. There were nine adults staying in our group and yet we still had lots of room all around the house. This is beautiful walking country with Offa's Dyke near by and there's lots to see and to visit in the area. We were very sorry to have to leave at the end of the week and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you. Sheila

"Elizabeth and Stephen are so lovely and there to help should you ever need it."
Beautiful home.

"After many years of using Skyes cottages, we were let by our original choice."
We chose the Old Farmhouse as the accommodation seemed to be the best option available at the time. The farmhouse is in a lovely setting with some beautiful views. The house itself worked for us, especially with a downstairs and shower room, however the shower room floor was dirty. The garden is a good size with different seating areas although one of these which would have been a lovely place to sit of an evening we didn't use as it was quite messy. Some of the garden furniture is rickety, and all in need of TLC. Having been brought up on farmland I appreciate we were on farmland, the flies were such that they were in every room but in the kitchen they were excessive and we used a couple of aerosols of flat spray, having said the some of them seemed immune. Also on opening Windows for but if air the frames were filthy. All in all it didn't stop us having a good holiday the granddaughters certainly enjoyed it, but just a bit more attention to the outside furniture and seating areas would have made perfect.
-
"From the minute we turned into the driveway and saw the house sitting perfectly against the most stunning countryside backdrop I knew we were going to have the most wonderful time."
The house itself is clean, spacious, modern and yet completely comfortable and even though there were nine of us ranging from 3 - 81 it never, for one moment, felt crowded or cramped. If walking is your thing, then you have it in spades, if relaxing in a beautiful house or garden is your thing then there are plenty of areas to do that too. For us it was all of that and more and we shall definitely be back again
-
"Lovely spacious house with plenty of room for all 9 of us and a dog, well equipped kitchen with lots of crockery and cutlery and everything else you need."
Lots of outside space with several outside seating areas, and lovely views all around. The large dog bed in the lounge was appreciated as was the milk, cake and butter, all in all we had a really lovely holiday.
-

-
"We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas week at The Old Farmhouse."
The house was so accommodating and comfortable for all our needs and even the wet weather did not dampen our spirits. Lovely to have Christmas decorations and a sparkling tree to greet us on arrival. Thank you Elizabeth and Michael for a memorable time. Marcia
-
"The cottage was perfect for our family weekend, getting together from different corners of the country."
It had plenty of space, but cosy with everything we needed. It was a nice touch having the Christmas decorations up. The cottage was easy to find and in a great location to do walks from the house and close to the town of Knighton. I would definitely recommend it
-
"Lovely property, quiet and pretty views."
We were on holiday with my elderly parents who do love a walk and to sit in the evening and watch TV. Sadly, the internet was so weak that we couldn't access Netflix or any other internet based service. They do offer free sat, which is rubbish, hence we left the holiday earlier as my parents really wanted to be able to watch TV and relax.
Thank you for your kind words regarding The Old Farmhouse. Having been made aware that you couldn’t access the internet, we ordered a new hub which arrived the next day. We offered to set it up for you but you preferred to do it yourselves. We didn’t hear from you again and afterwards found that the new code hadn’t been put into the TV to access the internet connection. We are sorry you encountered this problem. The TV and BT business internet connection are now working perfectly, as they have done in the past. We want all our guests to enjoy their stay at the farmhouse and will always respond to queries, and work to resolve any problems, immediately. Property Owner

"A wonderful property - the photographs do not do it justice."
It is a fantastic mix of contemporary fittings in a beautiful old building. The views are to die for. Superbly clean and well fitted for all the things you need to have an amazing time - every little detail has been thought about. Excellent.
-
"Fantastic place to stay."
The hosts were so welcoming - we appreciated the cake, butter, milk, and flowers, thank you! The house is very well equipped, warm and spotlessly clean. The view from the lounge is stunning! Thank you so much for our stay, we woud love to come back.
-
"We had a great holiday in upper pitts, the house was perfect for our 8 adults and 2 children."
.Beds so very comfortable and bedrooms all spacious, and good size bathrooms. It was a great house to accommodate us all, there was nothing i could fault .
-
"Lovely location, warm and welcoming house."
Very peaceful, relaxing and perfect hosts
-
"We loved our stay here, the house has everything you want and more."
It's perfect for pets too with beautiful gardens and plenty of space for outdoor activities. The local area is also really lovely with some nice walks around the house too. You would need a car to get about - to pubs, shops etc as not everything is in walking distance but that is another reason we loved it. Thank you so much for our stay and I am almost 100% sure we will be booking again next year.
-
"The hosts of the property were wonderful and went above and beyond to ensure we had a safe, relaxing and memorable holiday."
-
"Its a relaxing and nature lovers spot."
-
"A beautiful secluded cottage with only sheep for company."
We were warmly greeted by Elizabeth and farmer Steve . The cottage was warm , welcoming (cake, milk and butter provided) and spotlessly clean. Perfect for a relaxing stay.
-
"We booked this farm house for a family get together, there was only 5 of us so we did not use all of the bedrooms but there would have been more than enough room for 10 people."
Everything you need is in the house, including beautiful fresh flowers, cake, butter and milk. Would recommend for a relaxing time with only sheep for neighbours. Owner is just across the road and very welcoming. If you get to stay here go outside and check out the stars at nighttime the night sky is amazing. House up a single track road but don't let that put you off, would definately love to come back. Thank you for a very chilled time.
-
"We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Old Farmhouse."
It’s location is so beautiful, the house is just lovely (and exceptionally clean) and Michael and Elizabeth were always only a text or call away. Also, we brought along our very energetic dog with us and outdoor areas are brilliant (I loved the adjacent apple orchard). So much space for him to run about and explore and it was all completely fenced off, so we could let him explore without worry. Favourite elements were the wood burners, the view from the sitting on the sofa and the peaceful silence of the remote countryside! Highly recommend.
-
"If the owners want to attract families with young children they need to have a travel cot, high chair and removable stair gate for the bottom of the stairs."
Other than that the cottage was lovely, very spacious, comfortable and very well equipped. It was clean well presented and the beds were very comfortable. Having three bathrooms was a real bonus. The garden was fenced,so safe for children and the dog. The hammock in the orchard was a favourite with the children! The farmer and his family were lovely and when we needed some help with the television Elizabeth was prompt in her response and the farmer's son fixed the problem quickly, which is what you need with four young children! The area is beautiful with most attractions about a half hour drive away. We tried the Horse and Groom pub in the village and found them helpful with the children and the food was reasonably good 'pub food'.
-
"Very peaceful, view was spectacular and a good base for visiting other places of interest."
House had everything you may need for cooking and the children loved the garden.
-
"The house was excellent, the views from the house brilliant."
Would like to revisit in the future.
-
"Wonderful cottage , brilliant kitchen facilities."
A true home from home experience in the most beautiful location anyone could wish for . Little extras of homemade cake , fresh milk extra. Altogether a warm and friendly atmosphere and dog friendly too (although we didn’t bring the dog this time ) we were a party of 8 and there was plenty of space , no one felt cramped . The kitchen table could have easily fitted 10 . This was our second visit in less than six months and won’t be our last . Thank you for such excellent accommodation.
-
"This was a fabulous place to stay."
Lovely countryside surrounding it and everything we could possibly want in the house. Thank you for a lovely stay.
-
"Lovely house and lovely location even a friendly farmer who gave the kids some food to feed the sheep."
We were sad to leave.
-
"Lovely cottage - perfect for a post Xmas get together!"
Everything you need plus super comfy beds and beautiful views. Hosts were great too. Would recommend.
-
"Absolutely ten out of ten!"
! Truly wonderful accommodation, exceptionally good value for money and fixtures and fittings of a very high standard! My only critic would be that the current photographs advertising the property don’t do it justice. It’s far bigger and far grander than the pics shows :-) absolutely GREAT holiday home. Thank you for a fantastic long weekend.
-
"The old farmhouse was the most amazing place to stay in, it was peaceful and the views from the lounge were stunning, the house was very spacious and the beds were so comfortable, Elizabeth has thought of everything you would ever need, including baking equipment which came in very useful, it is in an Ideal spot for visiting various places."
On arrival Elizabeth left us a beautiful welsh cake, butter and milk. Thank you for an amazing stay, we will return.
-
"We had a very enjoyable stay at The Old Farmhouse."
The house was immaculate and exceeded our expectations. All the bedrooms were well furnished with comfortable beds - and the sitting-room was spacious enough for all the family to sit in comfort. We especially like the fact that we could sit out on the covered terrace at the back, even on a cool autumn evening. The house is perfect for a large multi-generational family get-together and the lawn is ideal for the children to play games. Michael and Elizabeth went out of their way to ensure that we had a great time - and gave us lots of material about things to do in the area.
-
"My walking group and I really enjoyed our stay in The Old Farmhouse."
It really suited us with the zip and link beds ideal for singles and couples. The space allowed us to chat to the chefs as they prepared our evening meal whilst the rest of the group enjoyed the views from the lounge area. The garden was all safely fenced in and there were several seating areas again making the most of those views. We're already thinking of returning to this beautiful house but at a different time of the year. Julie- Gloucestershire

"The Old Farmhouse is in the most stunning location with wonderful views across beautiful farmland."
The property has been very tastefully furnished and thoughtfully arranged with everything having been done to a really high standard. Extra touches, like local cake and farmhouse butter on arrival, and fresh flowers from the garden attractively arranged, were a lovely surprise.It was a joy to be here for a few days and we would love to go again.
-
"Everything was super!"
The house we stayed in , the garden , the view , the surrounding , the owners. We had a most enjoyable holiday !
-
"The farmhouse is very spacious with beautiful views."
There are walks on the doorstep and a short drive to Knighton for places to eat if you wish to go out for dinner. We were made to feel very welcome with a very tasty fruit cake, milk and butter. Will definitely be going back
-
"The owners, Michael and Elizabeth, went above and beyond expectations to ensure we had a wonderful holiday."
Nothing was too much trouble. They were on-hand if needed anything. We are already looking at possible dates for our next return visit. An absolute gem of a place!

The property
This delightful farmhouse can be found nestled on the border of the Welsh Marches and the Shropshire Hills.
Offering stunning views of the countryside and the surrounding fields of the owner’s farm, it’s a beautiful place to spend a tranquil trip.
The house boasts enchanting features and has been carefully renovated to a high specification with the comfort of its guests paramount.
The porch/conservatory adjacent to the kitchen is a place to kick off your boots, put your feet up and relax.
In the morning you can have your coffee in the sunshine and in the evening watch the sunset.
Enjoy the view of the landscaped terrace with its pretty planting and a glimpse beyond of the rolling hills.
At the heart of the well-appointed kitchen is a handmade oak dining table for everyone to gather for laid-back breakfasts, lazy lunches and delicious suppers.
There is a woodburner and a sofa for extra cosiness.
The south-facing sitting room is a lavish spot for family and friends to relax together, with another magnificent woodburner within a feature brick wall.
Lie on the Chesterfield sofa with a good book (there’s a selection for you) and a glass of wine, and enjoy the stunning panorama from the picture window – or on a sunny day roll back the doors and bask outside on the patio sun loungers.
For autumnal and winter breaks there is underfloor heating to ensure that this is a snug retreat at all times of the year.
Take a step down from the sitting room to get to the first bedroom in the property, with a top-of-the-range shower located opposite; it’s an ideal room for those with limited mobility.
Upstairs you will find four more comfortable bedrooms accompanied by two luxury bathrooms.
All five bedrooms have excellent quality beds which can be made for a super-king, twin or single bed; whichever suits your requirements.
Outdoors, children will enjoy the freedom of the lawn and adjacent apple orchard.
There are beautiful walks to do on and around the property.
Afterwards bring the whole family/group together around the barbeque/fire pit for sizzling burgers, roasted veggies and stews.
The property offers beautiful, rural landscapes and is just a five-minute drive to the charming market town of Knighton where you can find diverse shops including a supermarket, a butcher selling the best butter ever, and an organic farmer’s shop with seasonal produce and a range of handmade goods.
There is a habadasher (cushions, hankerchiefs, socks, pyjamas, fabric); the kind of store which used to be on every high street but is now a rarity.
Look out for events at the Community Centre which hosts the Knighton Food and Craft Market on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of every month; Also visit the Offa’s Dyke Centre, a venue for many walkers, with the famous section of Offa’s Dyke running between Wales and England.
There is great pub food here and in the surrounding area.

National Trust Croft Castle and Berrington Hall.
Presteigne – The Judge’s Lodging museum; music festival in August.
Leominster – antiques central.
