Just a few miles from the border with Herefordshire, this secluded retreat provides cosy, romantic and characterful accommodation for couples seeking a rural getaway with breathtaking views. Ideal for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers discovering the glorious Radnorshire countryside, the property was once a smithy and has been imaginatively updated while retaining traditional features including vaulted ceilings, timber beams and flagstone floors. Offering ample space for two guests, this tranquil getaway also features a spiral staircase, bedroom balcony and a lovely garden looking out towards the stunning Lugg Valley.
The fresh and light-filled lounge makes a lovely space to unwind in, with ample seating, a pebble-effect electric fire, TV, ceiling beams and soothing decor. There’s also a fully equipped galley-style kitchen/diner with oak cupboards and granite worktops. The stylish central spiral staircase leads up directly into the beautiful bedroom. With some height restrictions, this tastefully furnished room features a lovely double bed, ample storage space, impressive beams in the high vaulted ceiling, and is served by an invigorating shower room. A door opens onto a charming, decked balcony. Outside, the garden has paved areas, established shrubs, and a small lawn, with a BBQ and outdoor furniture so you can settle back and enjoy a meal or a drink as you take in the glorious views.
Pilleth was the site of the Battle of Bryn Glas but is now a tranquil village within easy reach of both Presteigne and Knighton (both within 5 miles). Knighton has a choice of friendly pubs and restaurants as well as the Offa’s Dyke Centre, making it a great base for walkers and history buffs. Walkers can head north into the Shropshire Hills (5 miles), with other attractions and landmarks including The Judge’s Lodging Powys, The Spaceguard Centre, Hergest Croft Gardens, and Knucklas Castle, all within 10 miles.
