Woodside Cottage

Enjoying a fabulous location, well-secluded and surrounded by countryside for you to explore, this retreat is dog friendly and simply perfect for families wanting to escape the everyday rush. From the doorstep, a network of footpaths and bridleways run up into the Radnor Hills. Just 5 miles away is the pleasant town of Kington, renowned as a centre for walking and surrounded by the pretty rolling hills of The Marches, which offers a choice of good shops, pubs, and restaurants. Explore the Mortimer Trail and the lovely walks to Hergest Ridge. Discover Presteigne (7.5 miles), which nestles at the heart of The Marches and has the award-winning Judges Lodging. Explore lovely Hay-on-Wye with its festival and books, and the medieval town of Ludlow, both less than 25 miles.

Travel through acres of established working farmland to arrive at this sympathetically restored, red brick and timber-clad cottage. Leave muddy boots by the back door before you step inside this country home full of beautiful interiors and far-reaching views to soothe the soul. The hub of the house is an open kitchen/day room designed with family get-togethers in mind. A deep window seat with comfortable cushions is the perfect spot for an afternoon with a good book, or a glass of wine whilst a simple supper is prepared. A generously sized dining table and chairs with low lighting create a perfect setting for meals. The kitchen finished with bespoke units offers everything you would need for preparing meals throughout your stay. The kitchen leads to a spacious entrance hall with storage for coats and a cloakroom with WC. The original part of the cottage offers a cosy lounge, finished with lime plaster and deep window sills, colourful soft furnishings and a wonderful wood burner for additional warmth – there is also a Smart TV for those relaxing evenings. When the day is done climb the stairs to the open landing. Here, guests have the choice of three beautifully finished bedrooms; the master bedroom offers a king-size bed with en-suite bathroom, a glass front balcony with table, chairs and stunning countryside views, a further double bedroom also with spectacular views, and a third queen bedroom ideal for children, with lovely field views. Completing this property is the beautiful family shower room.

Outside, the gardens are sympathetic to the surrounding countryside. There is access to the property's own enclosed paddock which would be suitable for dogs.
