These two delightful barn conversions are adjacent to the owners home and overlook the peaceful rolling countryside of rural mid Wales. The Owl House (ref UK6485) sleeps 12 and is a sympathetically restored oak-framed stone barn. The full length windows in the kitchen/dining room overlook a pretty decked area outside complete with barbecue. With steps throughout the ground floor, the upstairs living room is accessed by a stunning spiral staircase. Tawny Barn (ref UK6486) is another cosy barn conversion sleeping 3 people.
There are walks from the door, and it is only a short distance by car to the pretty town of Llanfyllin, which is well worth exploring. In the other direction is Lake Vyrnwy and its famous Victorian dam. Take a stroll along the lakes shore or hire a bike and explore one of the cycle tracks. Beyond Lake Vyrnwy you can take the mountain road through Cwm Hirnant over to Bala. The nearby town of Welshpool is also well worth a visit, with its canal and famous Powys Castle, National Trust, which has many acres of grounds to explore, together with the house. The Welshpool and Llanfair Railway runs from Welshpool, with steam trains meandering along the valley to the small town of Llanfair Caereinon, and provides a delightful and unhurried way of seeing the surrounding countryside. There are the British Iron Works, the National Cycling Museum and Offa’s Dyke all under 30 minutes from the property. The Llanrhaeder Waterfall is also well worth a visit. For the more adventurous, you can find white water rafting, karting, canoeing and pony trekking within an hour, and further afield are Zip World, Bounce Below, Tree Top adventure and Go Below. Beach 40 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 3 miles.
The Owl House can be booked together with Tawny Barn (ref UK6486) to accommodate up to 15 guests.
