For a truly unforgettable stay in rural Mid Wales, escape to the charming town of Presteigne and enjoy a unique stay within the town’s local museum. Renovated as part of a project funded by the UK and Welsh governments, this four-person holiday home is located inside the Judge’s Lodging Museum, set within one of the town’s most impressive heritage buildings. A stay here includes access to the museum, along with a wealth of history albums and books, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves in the fascinating story of the building that surrounds them. For adventures further afield, both the Brecon Beacons National Park (18 miles) and the Shropshire Hills (6.5 miles) are within driving distance.
Decorated in elegant tones with antique furniture and eclectic artwork throughout, the former housekeeper’s quarters have been thoughtfully updated to create a memorable place to stay. Enter through the walled garden, where a table and chairs invite you to relax in the sunshine, before heading up to the first-floor apartment. Cosy nooks for reading and conversation can be found throughout, creating perfect settings to curl up with a good book or enjoy the Smart TV. The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing everything from leisurely breakfasts to evening meals, while two bathrooms - one en-suite and one family bathroom - provide comfort and convenience alongside the property’s two beautifully presented bedrooms.
Step outside and discover Presteigne’s attractive town centre just moments from your doorstep, with shops, art galleries, antique stores, and welcoming pubs all within 0.5 miles. Work up an appetite before dining in one of the town’s many restaurants by pulling on your walking boots and exploring the stunning countryside that straddles the England–Wales border. The Offa’s Dyke Path is an obvious choice, a famous long-distance trail that passes close to the property and showcases some of Powys’ most spectacular scenery.
