About this property
Llanfair Caereinion 4.2 miles. Ty Gwyn, a large, detached farmhouse set in a rural position just a few miles north of Llanfair Caereinion, Powys. Enjoying superb countryside views, ample off-road parking and a hot tub, this substantial, pet-friendly property is an ideal choice for families looking to spend a week away in Mid Wales. After a day of exploring, look forward to curling up on the sofa and catching up on your favourite TV shows, whilst the woodburning stove gently crackles in the background. Through to the kitchen/diner, you can begin to prepare delicious home-cooked meals with local produce and enjoy them around the table with your loved ones. Head upstairs to the three bedrooms; two doubles and a bunk, all tastefully decorated and furnished with a set of drawers for your personal belongings. On clear days, step out to the enclosed patio and enjoy lunch from the picnic table, before relaxing on the swinging chair or climb into the hot tub and take in the idyllic views. Head to the village of Llanfair Caereinion and discover a range of shops for picking up the essentials, along with a choice of pubs serving food, perfect for when you fancy a night off cooking. Head on a scenic stroll through Deri Woods or climb on board the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway, a popular tourist spot and exciting ride as it passes a viaduct and river bridge, climbs the notorious Golfa Bank and steams serenely through the beautiful Welsh countryside. Ten miles away lies Welsh, an interesting market town home to a bustling high street full of traditional shops, boutiques and markets or be stunned by the extraordinary Powys Castle and Gardens. Lake Vyrnwy and the Snowdonia National Park are further afield, offering beautiful walking routes and birdwatching opportunities. Choose Ty Gwyn for a wonderful base in this region of Wales.
The town of Llanfair Caereinion is built upon the site of an old Roman fort, in the valley of the River Banwy. It is a thriving town built around The Church of St Mary, with a Post Office, two supermarkets, and a selection of three different pubs. The annual Llanfair Caereinion Carnival is very popular with locals, and proceeds through the town with a full parade of floats and dancing troupes, providing a Rio carnival atmosphere. There is a river walk along the banks of the Banwy leading to an Arboretum, containing over 25 different species of British trees, an ideal place to explore before stepping back in time and jumping on the start of the narrow gauge heritage steam railway that runs 8.5 miles west to Welshpool. Welshpool nestles into the upper reaches of the picturesque Severn Valley near the border between Wales and England. This bustling market town is surrounded by rolling hills and glorious unspoilt countryside. There's a unique blend of shops offering arts & crafts, fashion & leisure, fresh produce, and quality pubs and restaurants, as well as the town centre’s restored cock fighting pit and interesting Heritage Trail. Visit the famous 13th Century Powis Castle, and the renowned Dingle Gardens. Enjoy a cruise in the summer sun along the Montgomery Canal or glorious walks and bike rides along National walking trails and the Offa’s Dyke Pathway.

A lovely cozy cottage for a relaxing week away. The hottub & log fire were great to get warm & cozy on those colder evenings. Having a huge field right outside was perfect to take our dog around & throw his ball. Our 2 year old loved the place too & said he wanted to stay here forever. Very happy with our stay & would highly recommend. Thanks

The owners happily got some balloons blown up, which I had sent them as it was our wedding anniversary. It was a lovely surprise for my husband. The property is amazing beautiful countryside views, quiet and peaceful, wood burning fire, great Tv and internet, well equipped kitchen and of course the hot tub. A dream. We had snow the week we went which made it more special and beautiful. This meant I was able to do my first snow wild swim, so exhilarating! I wild swim in cold water all year round but this was the first to have it snowing. We will definitely return and we canât wait. Thank w
