An idyllic escape awaits at this lovingly-restored former dairy building, located just a twelve-minute drive from picturesque Welshpool. The rural setting is ideal for meandering walks and hikes in the area, especially ones that end in local pubs or visits to historic castles. And after a long day of walking, what could be better than unwinding in a private hot tub as you take in the sweeping scenery? Inside, you’ll find a cosy open-plan living and dining space with rustic exposed beams and a welcoming country cottage ambience. A fully-equipped galley kitchen gives you the option to self-cater if you’re looking for a quiet evening in, otherwise explore a range of country pubs and restaurants if you prefer to eat out. The ground floor features a warm and welcoming bedroom with traditional pine cottage furnishings, along with a bright, modern shower room. This is the ideal location to power down your screen and instead set your sights upon the serene rural views. Whether you enjoy cycling, fishing, golfing or soaking up the local culture on holiday, this spot promises a bit of everything.
