Barn View Cottages

Barn View Cottages are a group of three self-catering holiday cottages, tastefully converted from a stone and timber clad barn. The cottages are situated opposite the owners house. They are situated in an elevated position with fantastic views, and all three have recently been refurbished to a very high standard to ensure your stay with us will be comfortable and relaxing. There's a sauna & spa cabin available for guests to relax and unwind in. Guests also have a drying room, resource room with maps, books, games & DVD's and a shared laundry room.

The cottages benefit from being situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty and there are many places of interest suitable for all ages to visit. The Hafren Forest is 4.5 miles away which is ideal for walkers and mountain bikers alike. The Forest takes its name from Afon Hafren (River Severn) which rises in a deep, blanket-peat bog, 800m outside its boundary, high above, on the slopes of Plynlimon. Almost immediately it begins its long journey to the Bristol Channel, passing first through woodlands of pine and spruce.

It is possible to walk to the Source of the Severn from Hafren Forest. The Severn Way, Britain's longest riverside walk, begins at the Source. Walkers can walk to the Source of the River Severn or take any of the clearly marked trails throughout the forest.

Lake Clywedog is within a 10 minute drive from the cottages. Lake Clywedog is one of the most beautiful lakes in Wales, offering stunning scenery and wonderful fishing. Lake Clywedog provides a perfect habitat for wildlife. Buzzards and Red Kite are now a common sight, and recently there have even been occasional sightings of Ospreys. Mallard are attracted to the lake, while Tawny Owls, Pied Flycatchers and a whole host of Tits have established themselves in the woods bordering the shore. The lake is amply stocked with brown and rainbow trout, the management of which and the fishing rights are the preserve of the Llanidloes Angling Society.
