Overview
Property code: 48641

Set against a backdrop of rolling hills, this luxurious property sleeping up to eight guests across four bedrooms is the ideal destination for families or groups of friends seeking a well-appointed base from which to explore the Welsh Marches and Shropshire.

The Montgomery Canal leads from Newtown and the wide towpath is ideally suited for walking and cycling trips with the whole family.

Step through the front door of this beautiful barn conversion and into the spacious entrance hallway. The light and airy kitchen/diner is a sociable space to cook meals together and linger over evening suppers at the large dining table. Gather together in the comfortable living room to relax in the warmth of the wood burner or watch a film on the TV. Head down to the basement games room for a game of table football before bed. Within the main property, you will find two king-size bedrooms and a twin bedroom, along with the family bathroom. The fourth bedroom is a self-contained king-size suite with separate access. There is a mini kitchen and seating area and an en-suite shower room. Stepping outside, there is a large private garden with an extensive decked area from which to enjoy the wonderful countryside views. After a long day of outdoor adventures, enjoy a soak under the stars in the private hot tub or play a game of table tennis on the covered deck. The cottage sits in 24 acres of grounds which you are free to explore. There is ample private parking.

The cottage was really comfortable and well equipped and set in beautiful countryside. The owners have decorated the house with interesting art and a great book selection. We definitely recommend and only wish we had been able to stay longer!

Everything well. If there is anything to mention which is a constructive criticism is , my husband was a bit taken aback by the last minute exit conduct. The owners were already outside our stay 10 minutes to 10 and literally rushed us and made us feel like we were late for our exit. We literally cleaned the whole house from as early as 8am on the Read more14th. Please advise them as nice and punctual they are that they should wait outside and not bring the cleaner. As mothers we actually did not mind. Hide

Wonderful remote location for a get away from it all break. Cottage was very well-equipped with four good sized bedrooms. Table tennis table and hot tub got plenty of use. The gardens and surrounding woodland provide plenty of walking opportunities. Would be very keen to book again, maybe in the summer

The gardens are magical...inspiring...beautiful - during the day, and at night. We spent a lovely afternoon sitting in the grounds, painting (we're all novices, but were inspired). We had a murder mystery, dressed for dinner, explored, read, played board games, and the hot tub was great too. Kingsley and Wolfgang have created such a lovely home, gardens and Gatehouse that they should be seen by others who love beautiful gardens and quirky creative homes. They also advised us on places to visit that were inspiring too. Thank you both for opening up your great space to us, and particularly for your openness and acceptance as we are a quirky bunch. x
