About this property

A delightful, 19th century, stone and timber-clad barn conversion, close to the rural village of Llanafan Fawr, 6 miles from Builth Wells. Carefully renovated to provide the perfect blend of original features and modern amenities, this lovely property features a charming, open plan living area with vaulted ceiling, cosy woodburner and delightful French windows leading to an attractive, decked area, perfect for dining alfresco. The surrounding countryside provides superb walking, fishing and mountain biking opportunities amongst breathtaking scenery. Visit Powys's oldest pub in Llanafan Fawr, peruse the fascinating craft shops at nearby Builth Wells, or explore the famous Wye and Elan valleys. The Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons), the striking Black Mountains and the lovely coastline of Cardigan Bay are all within easy reach, making this a superb base for a wonderful, relaxing holiday. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 924207 and 1034314, together sleeping up to 12 guests.

Peacefully situated amidst beautiful, unspoilt countryside, the rural village of Llanafan Fawr is home to an old church and Powys' oldest pub, The Red Lion, which serves fine, traditional fare. Set in the slopes of the Llanafan Valley and within easy distance of the equally beautiful Wye Valley, the surrounding countryside is renowned for its walking and mountain biking opportunities, though it also provides an excellent backdrop for fishing and bird-watching along the Wye and Irfon rivers. Builth Wells is also within easy driving distance and this picturesque market town provides a variety of interesting crafts stores and many collectors' fairs. The annual Royal Welsh Show is hosted in the town every July and is a colourful, fascinating fete. The Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons) and the spectacular Black Mountains are easy to reach from the area, making this an ideal place for people looking to enjoy the outdoor life or simply relax against this stunning backdrop.
