The photos do not do it justice. Much bigger than we thought, very clean , the extra large dining table was a bonus for our party of 12. Would highly recommend!

The photos donât do the internal size of the property justice, the bedrooms are all a great size (family bedroom has a sliding dividing door for bunkbed area) and the open plan kitchen/ lounge/ dining area works brilliantly for a large group (can be divided by sliding doors/ curtains if desired). The separate seating/ TV area at the rear of the large entrance hallway worked brilliantly as a kids playroom. We go away together as a group every New Year, and this was by far the best property we have booked in terms of quality of furnishings/ comfort/ cleanliness. The house is very well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. We had a minor issue with the dishwasher but the response time from the owners could not have been quicker to resolve. The house is well positioned for short car trips to Welshpool/ Oswestry/ Powis Castle. We also enjoyed a short walk from the house along the canal to the local pub in Arddleen (very welcoming/ dog friendly). We ordered a Chinese takeaway one night that was recommended in the welcome book, delicious! It was very wet weather for our stay so we didnât use the garden much, but was a great size and everyone commented that they would love to come in warmer weather and enjoy the outdoor seating area with stunning views of the hills.
