Overview
Property code: STANL

Driving through the grounds of this magnificent lakeside retreat will send a tingle of anticipation down your spine. Located within the emerald green swathes of rural Mid Wales, this regal property is one of two medieval buildings with space for up to 16 people in total (and two dogs!) to enjoy something extraordinary. Whether you are looking for an exclusive pad where you can celebrate a special occasion or somewhere decadent for a long overdue catch up with friends, this place has it all. And, with the ancient market towns of Welshpool and Ludlow nearby, you can easily spill out for a day of shopping and evening of drinks too.

With proud medieval roots, this superb property combines authentic features with a contemporary edge. Flaunting exposed beams, wooden floors and vintage finds alongside sumptuous furnishings, soft linens and lots of mod cons, all generations can enjoy a taste of old-fashioned opulence without sacrificing an ounce of comfort. Offering ample private parking, park up and make your way over to the porch. Inside, the country-style kitchen offers bountiful appeal for cooking and dining, from drawn-out breakfasts to your evening supper. Complete with everything you could need for epic family feasts, you can unleash your inner cuisinier, use the outdoor BBQ or, for a more relaxing option, save yourself the trouble by hiring a chef. As you wait, gather around in the spacious lounge; with ample seating and a roaring wood burner, it is the perfect spot to chat away with a glass of wine before mouth-watering smells summon you to the adjoining dining area. Come rain or shine, you will find yourself enjoying this heavenly retreat from the hazy sunrise over the backdrop of trees to the rusty red and burnt orange skies of sunset. Stroll the shared grounds, indulge in Champagne picnics by the lake, and unwind in the bubbly hot before heading off to bed in one of the property's eight bedrooms. Each as beautiful as the next, sink under marshmallow duvets and let the memories of a day filled with happiness lull you to sleep. For extra convenience, there are even eight bathrooms so you can rinse and soak without waiting for your turn.

Amazing 8 bedded house. 6 doubles and 2 twin rooms - twin beds were large. All rooms beautifully decorated and very comfortable with en suites. Hot tub and sauna both lovely. BBQ under cover so if you do get a bit of rain you can still sit outside and enjoy the fresh air. Fully recommend.
