Overview
Property code: 86784

19th century barn conversion with spacious accommodation in a gated estate, beautiful grounds with fishing on site. An idyllic retreat for a family holiday, in Bettws Cedewain with a local pub nearby.

Step back in time and appreciate the peace and quiet of Mid Wales, staying in this stunning property with 30 acres of surrounding land to make full use of. Complete with plenty of traditional elements including original beams, stone flagged flooring and authentic farmhouse doorframes, this dog-friendly property offers you the chance to truly appreciate a country stay with everyone you hold dear to you by your side. The accommodation houses eight guests and up to four dogs, ideally suited to two families travelling together or a larger group of friends. Those with bigger families (or even more friends) will be pleased to find a further three-bedroom property on the estate, happily sleeping an additional six guests - perfect for a holidaymaking gang who wish to appreciate the activities and attractions of the Welsh countryside together.

Whilst the surrounding area offers activities in abundance, you’ll also be pleased to find plenty to stay entertained with right here at the house. Leave the car behind and simply venture into the garden, losing yourself in the sprawling 30 acres of woodlands and outdoor space. Here you can get stuck into some trout fishing, fire up the BBQ or simply take drinks by the pond as the children play. Should the weather not permit such outdoor activities, head inside to get cosy and warm. The open-plan ground floor puts the lounge, kitchen and diner into one sociable spot. Prepare meals beneath beautiful oak beams and spend mealtimes together at the dining table. There's space for everyone to sink into a cushy seat in the lounge. Pick a family favourite DVD and get stuck into some serious entertainment whilst your pets curl up by your feet. Suitable for multi-generational stays, the home boasts a generous super-king-size bedroom with an en-suite wet room on the ground floor. This accessible sleeping option can also be set up as a zip-and-link to accommodate those who prefer not to share a bed. Finally, three further bedrooms await upstairs, all of which offer en-suite facilities for an additional touch of privacy.

Booked this getaway last minute for a family gathering and birthday. The property really suited us as we took along elderly parents, one who isn't very mobile. The downstairs bedroom and wet room was ideal for them as well as the toilet being raised so we didn't need to add extra equipment which we usually do.

This very comfortable and cosy accommodation is set in beautiful grounds in a magnificent part of the country. The resident animals are interesting to watch (and also interested in visitors). The Bull and Heifer nearby is a welcoming pub with excellent beer and food.
