Along a winding country lane in Mid Wales, you will stumble across this respectfully renovated barn on a working farm. Only half a mile from the walking trail of Glyndwr's Way, it's never been easier to immerse yourself in rural surroundings with family hikes and afternoon picnics. A short drive away from the market town of Machynlleth – the nation's ancient capital – and Snowdonia National Park, this is your invitation into greener pastures. Gorgeously designed with exposed stone walls and wood-beamed ceilings, this home somehow balances class with cosiness. Wake up in a skylit bedroom, then spend a slow morning around the fire. For breakfast, you can tuck into your welcome hamper and open the French doors onto the rolling hills beyond. After a day on your feet, why not pick something from the bookcase, or socialise with your neighbours in the shared games room? Hook up the docking station here and play pool after dusk – just don't forget to toast a happy holiday with a glass of Welsh whisky.
