Experience true tranquillity in this remote Mid-Wales farmhouse, a property set on a 300-acre farm with a brook running through and grazing livestock as neighbours. Despite its undisturbed location, the holiday home is just 10 miles from Newtown and 16.5 miles from Llanidloes with the Shropshire Hills AONB also just a short drive away (9 miles), ideal for filling your getaway days with outdoor-focused action and adventure. The property itself invites nights of relaxation after fun-filled days, happily hosting six guests and two dogs with families in mind.

This home-from-home is instantly accommodating with everything you may need for a restful break. All the necessary facilities including kitchen appliances, a utility room with laundry equipment and a downstairs WC can be found laid out on the ground floor. With delicious dinner prepared you can sit down together in the dining room or out in the garden, weather dependant. If you do choose to eat outside, you’ll find the garden enclosed and safe for pets or children to play. Back indoors, move on up to the first floor to find three charming bedrooms, each one as comfy as the last and offering fantastic countryside views.

Set off walking amongst vibrant Powys countryside and beyond, exploring long-distance routes along the Severn Way (10 miles) or the Offa’s Dyke Path (16 miles) for hiking or biking. Mountain bikers will love visiting the Pump Track Wales in nearby Rhayader (14 miles) and the National Cycle Museum in Llandrindod Wells. Those more interested in the area’s rich topography can venture into the Elan Valley and explore the area’s four dams, all accessible within 22 miles.

Loved our stay and the quiet location. The garden was lovely with lovely view over the fields. Appreciated the hot tub and the fact it was under cover so we could use it in all weather. A well equipped kitchen which was great as we cooked in a lot. Owner had provided garden games and a nice food welcome basket which was a nice touch. It is a remoteRead more location but it made it super peaceful. Would definitely stay at Blue Lins cottage again. Hide
