2 bedroom Cottage near Montgomery, Powys / Brecon Beacons, Wales

This luxurious rural bolthole sits on the edge of the village of Llandyssil, close to the England/Wales border. You’ll find multiple countryside walks from your front door, as well as a traditional village pub to refuel in at the end of the day. The property sleeps four guests and makes a fabulous couples’ retreat or base for a small family, with stunning social spaces both inside and outdoors. During your stay, why not treat yourself to a holistic treatment, private dining experience, or even a helicopter ride by prior arrangement with the owner?

Enter the striking, wood-clad holiday home via the utility room, where you can store all your outdoor gear. From here, move into the light-filled lounge/kitchen/diner, where floor-to-ceiling glass doors frame far-reaching views across the valley. Spend time here, relaxing on the sofa in front of the cosy wood burner, cooking up a storm in the sleek kitchen area, and coming together at the dining table for special mealtimes. The property has two fantastic bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room and the other offering direct access to the hot tub. A family bathroom with an indulgent roll-top bath completes the accommodation. A vast terrace envelops the property, with furniture and a BBQ for al fresco dining, along with a private hot tub with jaw-dropping views.
