Located in Beguildy with pub and shop, close to medieval Clun, the historic market towns Ludlow and Knighton, spa town Llandrindod Wells and Newtown on the banks of the River Severn. Roam the 43 acres of grounds and join Glyndwr’s Way National Trail, Offa’s Dyke or one of the many footpaths and cycle routes to discover the majestic Welsh countryside and rolling Shropshire Hills. The area offers a plethora of activities, eateries, independent shops, museums and galleries.

The cottage is one of two adjacent cottages, that if booked together could provide accommodation for 4 people. The cottages are found at the top of a private drive, where there is no passing people or traffic, just sheep and wildlife. Children and dogs are allowed to roam freely and safely in the acre of the dog exercise field. Guests and their dogs are able to wander around the 43 acres of grounds, please keep dogs on a lead as there is wildlife all around. There are many walks directly from the property, without having to drive anywhere. There is total peace and solitude, with fresh mountain air and pure spring water on tap.
The property has been lovingly refurbished maintaining its beautiful exposed beams, unique windows and interesting features. This quirky, compact and cosy studio style accommodation is newly transformed into two separate buildings with a linked walkway. The original bothy is small, at 17 feet x 11 feet, and houses the bedroom and shower room. It has a comfortable double bed with a Smart TV and Netflix. The shower room has a shower and WC and you can dry off with fluffy towels, slipping into the supplied bath robes as you plan your day’s activities. The newly added adjoining Shepherd's hut offers an open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area with a wood burning fire plus Smart TV with Netflix. The creatively designed kitchen area has an induction hob, fridge, microwave oven, slow cooker, air fryer, with lovely views towards the stream and rolling countryside.
Between the accommodation is a large decking area, it is the perfect place to enjoy al fresco living. The private hot tub is also waiting for you, alongside a bistro table and chairs with BBQ, and a pair of Adirondack chairs to relax in enjoying the far reaching views, all set within a fenced garden. Private parking for two cars is available at the property. A shared Pump House has a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a bicycle and canoe store is available.
