There are many walks from the door step as well as easy access to well known walks such as Offas' Dyke, Glyndwrs Way and the Kerry Ridgeway.

Nearby are the dams of Lake Vyrnwy and the Elan Valley which offer spectacular views across the countryside of Wales.

Family run bed and breakfast businessThe gardens, which everyone is welcome to enjoy, were laid out over many decades by gardeners with a real passion for planting yet remain informal with a large lawn ideal for games. In the borders there are ancient yew trees, colourful azaleas and rhododendrons, lovely acers and a wonderful magnolia.

You can sit in the garden and watch the abundant wildlife, take a stroll through our woodland by the pond or simply kick a football about.
