About this property
Llandrindod Wells 5 miles. This well-furnished, detached bungalow lies in the village of Penybont, just five miles from the well-known Victorian spa town of Llandrindod Wells. This spacious cottage enjoys large lawned grounds and benefits from a central location in the village, providing an excellent base for a family retreat. From the cosy woodburner and engineered wood flooring, this cottage oozes warmth and charm, all of which won’t disappoint. The kitchen and diner is finished to an exceptional standard, with contemporary appliances and an island unit, along with dining seating for all.

There is also a double and single bedroom, which are served by the ample family bathroom complete with bath and shower over. For extra convenience, there is a utility room with washer and dryer, useful if you explore across a muddier route. Outside through the patio doors, step into the patio area which houses a wonderful hot tub. Indulge and relax with a glass of something cold, or switch on the jets for that Jacuzzi experience, the perfect way to round off a tiring day exploring. The patio area also features a large picnic bench which lends itself to alfresco dining in the sun. There are walks from the door as the property is on the edge of the Penybont Common. Nestled in the spectacular Welsh countryside, the village of Penybont is famed for its popular garden centre Midway Plants and Nurseries. Just opposite the cottage is The Severn Arms, an 18th century coaching inn, while further ahead in the village is the Thomas Shop, museum and gallery, all well worth a visit. New Peny is ideally placed for exploring the area, the stunning Cambrian Mountains and the Elan Valley with its Victorain dams and wildlife rich countryside. An attractive cottage to be enjoyed all year round.

The highlights of our holiday were the house and facilities offered. As we were grounded to the house for 3 days trying to sort out a courtesy car we made use of the log fire and hot tub which was lovely, we enjoyed a lovely meal in the Severn Arms Hotel across the road thankfully as we had no supplies in and couldn't get out to get any due to the car issues. We had an issue with my daughters disability aid breaking whilst we were grounded but thankfully the man who runs the car garage across the road was lovely and let me borrow a screwdriver. The house was lovely, clean and spacious, in a lovely area. Great hot tub and lovely gardens but unfortunately due to the circumstances I wouldn't come back but was nothing to do with the property. The property was the highlight of our holiday.

It was a perfect place to relax and unwind with everything we could possibly want, with the addition of a hot tub which was great. Clean, roomy and a great secure garden for my two Jack Russells. Ideal location for walking in the hills around the Elan Valley, Devil's Bridge and surrounding areas. Caught up on the gossip and caught up with sleep. Ideal

The hot tub is amazing. A lovely welcome basket awaits. We had such a lovely week there. And the bonus of a pub opposite you and a quirky coffee and cake shop less than 200 mtrs away. Thank you.
