About this property
Celebrate some well-earned time off with a holiday among friends. This gorgeous stone cottage has everything you could want for a relaxing holiday. Located on the Welsh border, you can enjoy wonderful walks, fascinating history and even a vineyard tour before heading back and stargazing from the hot tub or sipping a drink in front of the fire pit.
The interior of the cottage is as beautifully preserved as the outside. Exposed beams give the place a timeless feel, but you still have every modern amenity to hand. Allow your dogs to explore the garden, enclosed by a stone wall, while you enjoy the hot tub or feast at the outdoor dining area. Gather for ghost stories, best exchanged at twilight as you sit around the fire pit for extra spookiness. You’ll find a spacious kitchen and cosy lounge with a wood burner, perfect for nights where you can talk, play games or watch films before heading upstairs. The bedrooms are grand and comfortable, so you’ll sleep like royalty.
Bring your walking boots, because you’ll need to see the beautiful Montgomeryshire countryside. There are plenty of local walks ranging from challenging to peaceful ambles, all offering a great way to get some fresh air and feel revitalised. Montgomery itself is only 5 miles away and has a fascinating castle, as well as great pubs and various fairs throughout the year. These include a beer and folk festival, a July street fair and Christmas markets. Finally, head 6 miles to Kerry Vale Vineyard for a wine tasting, and make sure to pick up a few extra bottles so you can keep enjoying them when you’re back at home.

What a beautiful cottage Camlad Barn is. So well equipped as well. Everything we needed was there. Nice little touch of hair dryers and torches in every bedroom. The amazing hot tub is one of the highlights of the property and is checked daily by one of the team. The location is just stunning and so quiet and relaxing. So much wildlife surrounds you! If you want some time away from busy fast paced life you should definitely give Camlad Barn a visit. We loved the local Miners Arm for pizza night as well. Definitely need a car to get around if you have limited mobility but beautiful walks in the surrounding areas and local Marington Estate. Our dog loved his time away with us and it was brilliant that he could come with us and enjoy the wonderful enclosed garden.

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful luxury barn with six friends and one very happy dog! The location was perfect – set in a peaceful, quiet area that offered the ultimate getaway from the hustle and bustle. The barn itself was stunning, blending rustic charm with modern comforts, and spacious enough for all of us to relax and unwind. One of the highlights was the lovely walk to the local pub, where we enjoyed drinks. The surrounding countryside provided scenic walking routes, making it perfect for both us and our dog, who loved exploring the open spaces. Overall, it was the perfect retreat for a weekend of relaxation and fun with friends. We would definitely return!

Absolutely amazing. I am tempted to give Camlad Barn a poor review, only in the hope others don’t book and it is more available for my wife and I to return but that would be unfair and selfish. The setting of the property is outstanding with amazing views. It was immaculately clean and is equipped with everything that you would need. A large outdoor area to relax in with a lovely enclosed garden, pretty sitting area, separate allocated parking and hot tub which again, was immaculate and cleaned daily. The inside of the property is both spacious and very stylishly decorated and furnished. All the staff we came in contact with were incredibly friendly and gave excellent advise of local places to visit of which are many. If you want a fast paced, stressed, busy holiday with lots of people, vehicles and buildings this is not for you. If you want the absolute opposite, it is perfect. I can not recommend Camlad Barn enough and we cannot wait to go back. Oh, our 14 year old collie absolutely loved it as well.
