The main living/dining room is ideal. A good kitchen and two excellent bathrooms. We did not use the second sitting room at all. A car is definitely needed and we would recommend visits to the Dingle Garden/nursery near Welshpool and, further away, Carding Mill (NT) Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty near Church Stretton. We ate well at The Nags Head in Garthmyl and the new Cock and Wok in Forden. We think that Bryn Caer would be especially good in the spring and summer months when the fine garden can be fully appreciated.

Unfortunately we are both disabled and used to the facilities we have at home e.g rails, a seat in the shower etc so struggled with the lack of these. Would recommend to anybody without physical disabilities who would have a most enjoyable time
