Two nights were not enough for myself and my friend staying at this fabulous, charactful bed & breakfast. Tucked away in a gloriously peaceful setting and surrounded by gardens & woodland we had the most wonderful time. The owner Paul was charming, humourous and ever helpful. I had to change my booking twice before arriving and Paul sorted things without a hitch. Our room & bathroom were spacious, clean & comfortable with lovely double aspect views. The breakfast was delicious and should be indulged in. A return visit is a definite.

Stayed Saturday night as was playing darts in Newtown. I found the forest very well presented. Paul was welcoming on my arrival showed me to my room, which was beautifully presented and had everything you needed. Bathroom and shower were fabulous just what I needed after a long day at darts. Breakfast was lovely the full English was really well cooked and plenty of tea coffee and toast, cereal and fruit juice was also available. All in all well worth the money excellent place to stay.

Had a great stay. The B&B was so peaceful, so sleep was a bliss. The breakfast was great. Tori and Jules couldn’t do enough for us. The place was immaculate. The B&B is very quaint and romantic. We really wish we could have stayed longer, but had to head back home. Would definitely come back to this place. Everything about it was comfortable.

Wonderful comfortable and relaxing stay at an excellent B&B situated in a most beautiful and tranquil location. My family and I were grateful to Paul for his helpful and professional hospitality and we thoroughly enjoyed his delicious cooked breakfasts. It was a memorable and special experience to stay in the room with the luxury of a 4 poster, super king bed with sofa and dual aspect views over the front garden. A superb room to relax in after an enjoyable day exploring walking and exploring the local heritage sites with wonderful scenery and views across Montgomeryshire, Powys and Shropshire, Mid Wales. The downstairs living room with the grand piano, pool table and table football game was also a most welcome facility and the maps, leaflets and books with fascinating information about the local area were most useful.

The owner was really friendly and welcoming, the house was lovely and so quiet. The room was immaculate and we even had our duvet changed to a heavier one without asking as they noticed we had used the additional blankets. We would definitely stay here again and we will keep our fingers crossed for better weather next time!

Lovely quiet small private estate near Newtown. We were upgraded to a huge corner room with a massive four poster bed and we were delighted. We enjoyed the grounds, friendly black cat and the trees in spring glory. We spent a day at Powis Castle and had a picnic back at the house. There is a small kitchenette for guests to use with a fridge snd microwaves. Everything we could need. Thank you Sandy and Steve

A lovely spacious room for my husband, toddler and I - it was clean, fresh, and very comfortable. A beautiful building with period features, set in a lovely quiet setting. We walked up the lane, beside a stream whilst we were there - very relaxing. Welcoming host too!

There were initially some complications with my booking but Paul was professional and did everything he could to rectify the issue and make my stay a relaxing one, even going the extra mile to arrange transport to and from the B&B. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable and breakfast was delicious. I will be looking to stay again to enjoy a few days in the countryside next summer.
