Nestled in the tranquil Cambrian Hills, this enchanting holiday home offers a unique stay within a historic manor house owned by the same family for over 400 years. Set amid 2,000 acres of breath taking parkland filled with ancient trees, rolling woodlands, and serene valleys, it’s a haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. The idyllic River Irfon meanders through the estate, offering perfect spots for picnics and wild swimming. A short stroll leads you to the sleepy village of Beulah (1 mile), where a welcoming pub and local store provide essentials. For more adventure, head to Llanwrtyd Wells (5.5 miles), the UK's smallest town, known for quirky events like bog-snorkelling triathlons. Venture a bit farther to explore the Victorian charm of Llandrindod Wells (14 miles) or the literary treasures of Hay-on-Wye (29 miles).
Approached via a picturesque estate road, this charming self-catering property occupies a private wing of the manor house, offering complete seclusion. Designed with reverse-level living to make the most of the stunning valley views, the ground floor boasts three beautifully decorated bedrooms: a spacious master double and two airy twin rooms, all styled in calming hues with vibrant touches of artwork. A family bathroom with a shower over the bath, a convenient ground-floor WC, and a utility room for boots and outdoor gear complete this level.
Upstairs, the light-filled kitchen/diner invites you to gather for hearty meals, with a well-equipped setup featuring an electric cooker, microwave, dishwasher, and ample fridge/freezer space. A charming archway leads to a large dining table, perfect for enjoying meals with a view of the gardens. The living room, with its plush sofas, cosy wood burner, and scenic valley views, promises blissful relaxation. Completing the first floor is a snug single bedroom and a second bathroom with a shower.
