1 Bed Lodge in Aberbechan

About this property

Relax, unwind and recharge with a restful getaway in this high-quality lodge, perfect for one or two people – and dog-friendly, too. Set in a boutique complex of just four properties on a working farm, it’s surrounded by delightful countryside, where you’ll sometimes see sheep, cows, goats, horses and even a peacock in the nearby fields. Explore its lovely woodland, or enjoy a walk directly to Newtown, 2.5 miles away. Set on the upper reaches of the River Severn, this friendly town is home to a renowned modern art gallery, a theatre, a cinema, a variety of shops and a choice of places to eat and drink. The shops, restaurants and ruined medieval castle of the historic market town of Montgomery are just 8 miles away. Outdoor adventurers are well served, with walking, cycling, climbing and fishing all available nearby.

When you’ve parked your car, follow the sound of the babbling brook, which you’ll cross via a small, stepped bridge – with romantic lighting after dark. Head along the path up the slope, and you’ll see the timber-framed cabin at the top, positioned to take advantage of the gorgeous views of the idyllic surrounding countryside. Once inside, you’ll immediately appreciate the lodge’s stylish design and high-quality furnishings. The open-plan living space features a wooden floor with underfloor heating and painted, planked walls, with light flooding in via the bi-fold doors. After energetic days out, you can sink into the soft sofa, enjoying the views or, when you’ve drawn the curtains, watch a show on the Smart TV. If staying in to eat, the well-planned kitchen area has everything you need to rustle up a delicious meal, perhaps using local produce picked up on your travels. As you dine, enjoy the views from the table, perfectly positioned to look out over the brook. When you’re ready for a good night’s sleep, the compact double bedroom boasts luxurious linens and ambient lighting, complemented by a shower room where you can enjoy a leisurely start to each day.

Enjoy the fresh air whatever the weather, relaxing on the seating on your sheltered balcony that overlooks the brook. The two-person bistro set is perfect for a morning coffee or a glass of something tasty in the evenings. If you’re lucky, you might even spot an otter, and you should keep an eye out for kingfishers, dragonflies and trout. The pasture behind the cabin often has grazing cattle and sheep, and behind that is woodland that’s home to badgers, foxes and red kites. Directly outside the cabin is an open area with outdoor furniture for dining, a fire pit and your very own hot tub – perfect for a long, hot soak as you take in those incredible views. If you walk down the slope, you’ll find a shared, grassy area with a picnic table and access to the brook. You’re also welcome to stroll through the grounds and explore the woodland (which has steep, and sometimes muddy paths). Parking for two cars is provided in the gravel car park, and there is also space by your cabin to store bikes.
