“This is a wonderful cosy cottage, perfect for a family gathering.”

The hot tub was a great way to relax at the end of the day. The location is perfect for walking from the door. As a group of 6 adults self catering we really missed having a dishwasher - this is the first time we have stayed in a cottage this size without one.

“Great countryside retreat”

Just return from a lovely week staying in the Garden cottage. Fantastic hot tub, fishing ponds and woodland to explore. Especially great for our children as lots to do without having to leave the cottage! Would highly recommend.

“Wendy and Adrian where the perfect hosts and couldn't of done more in helping and guiding us through the most beautiful part of Wales everything was stunning and it was a little piece of heaven in Wales.”

- Mr Pymm, August 2019
“Wonderful setting in a beautiful relaxing area.”

So peaceful and the owners Wendy and Adrian made the stay so warm and welcoming. On arrival we were greeted by the owner who had left us a lovely welcome treat in the cottage. Made amazing family memories alongside fishing and making a camp fire on the woods. Great location for getting away from it all. Would definitely return.

- Mrs Fisher, August 2019
“The cottage was beautiful inside.”

The pictures did not do it justice. Unlike other holiday cottages we have stayed in previously garden cottage was spotless inside. The kitchen was very well equiped and the hottub was a perfect addition. The family used it every evening. I could not recommend this cottage enough. The owners were very helpful and freindly and the scenery was stunning. My husband and I are now considering going back again on our own ( without our adult children) this time.

“The surroundings.”

.being in the countryside...the woodland where you could walk the dogs and the freedom they had ...the owners were lovely, the welcome gift was a lovely touch..thankyou again.!

- Mrs Simcoe, May 2019
“Lovely cottage in an ideal location.”

Very friendly and welcoming Hosts. We had a great time, found plenty to do withToddler, Baby and Husky. Very successful visits to Powys Castle, Glensevern Gardens and Fantastic Barmouth beach amongst other things. Lovely meal at the Nags Head towards Welshpool. Would have given ‘facilities’ top score except that there is no washing machine or dishwasher at the cottage as yet. Amanda did kindly offer to do washing for us but we utilised a service wash at nearby Newtown. I believe the Owners are looking into providing laundry equipment soon-( they have only been at the property for a short while.) The hot tub was a fun addition to the week!

- Mrs Hemblade, May 2019

- Mrs Smart, February 2019
“The cottage and surroundings are absolutely stunning, and made the perfect backdrop for our wedding.”

The owners Wendy, Adrian and their son Harvey were all so welcoming and attentive and nothing was too much trouble for them. The cottage is spacious, homely and includes everything you could possibly ever need for your stay, and the hot tub is amazing. It is definitely the best holiday we have ever been on together as a family, and we will definitely be booking to stay here again. I think Wendy and Adrian should be proud of what they have achieved with the 4 holiday cottages they let out on site, it really is a little gem and we couldn’t have asked for anything better. Thank you for being part of our wedding memories we will never forget it

- Mrs Oneil, February 2019

...would highly recommend

- Miss Strange, February 2019
“What a beautiful cottage and location.”

We went to Garden Cottage for my husbands birthday. From the moment the owner met us I knew we had made a good decision. She was so welcoming and showed us the facilities and then just left us to it. The log burner was so welcome after long walks and the hot tub was fantastic!! We sat in there for hours watching the stars and just relaxing. The cottage has everything you’d need and more and the bed was one of the comfiest I’ve stayed in. I definitely recommend this place as it was just so idyllic.

- Mrs Welsh, January 2019
“We had 9 adults staying at the cottage and there were generous bedrooms, a nice living space and some of the most beautiful scenery around.”

We enjoyed visiting the animals daily and taking some walks down the bridle path. Towns like Welshpool and Newtown are not far and we were easily able to get food, drink and any items we needed. The hosts were helpful throughout the week. It was a wonderful location for a family gathering and holiday. The area is spectacular.

- Mrs Karolczak, December 2018
“The owners were very friendly and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed.”

The cottage was just lovely. Warm, cosy, spacious bedrooms, gorgeous log fire and good wifi! Would certainly recommend Garden Cottage!

- Mr Sheasby, November 2018

Highlight for us was the campfire setting in the woodland where we baked camembert with crusty bread , toasted marshmallows and told spooky stories ,,,,making proper family memories,,,,, I thank Adrian and wendy for making our stay so relaxed and special, and will will return :):):)

- Mr Leivers, October 2018

- Mrs Mcginn, October 2018
“Cottage was booked for a friends hendo, we was so pleasantly surprised how beautiful to location of the cottage was.”

Our hosts were both very lovely and walcoming they made our stay very special! Cottage was spotless upon entering, the bathrooms and bedrooms were all spotless, which made it feel homely and warm. The barn hours conversion was wonderful and the interior of the cottage was lovely. Everything was beautiful we loved our stay here and will definitely be looking to return at a later date.

- Mrs Eren, September 2018
“Wow, wow and wow!”

Fabulous accommodation and grounds not to mention the owners who couldn't have made us feel more welcome. We would highly recommend this property.

- Mr Birch, September 2018
“I would highly recommend this accommodation”

- Mr Duff, September 2018
“We have just returned from a relaxing weekend away at garden cottage (sleeps 9) which is 1 of 4 stunning cottages on site.”

. This is a haven for keen walkers and a peaceful retreat. The cottage was lovely and a great set up for 2 families and pets. The owners were very warm and welcoming and on site if you had any questions or needed anything - nothing was too much trouble. There were 2 lakes and an open campfire on site - plenty to occupy everyone. We lit the wood burner at night which made for a cosy evening. We walked on the Kerry Ridge and visited Hafren Forest which was stunning and worth a visit if you get the chance. If you are looking for somewhere to relax and get away from it all - this is definitely the place to stay. Needless to say, we will be returning - a gem of a find.

- Mrs Mehaffey, August 2018
“We spent the August long weekend in Garden Cottage with 6 adults, 2 children and a dog.”

It was absolutely lovely, the cottage is gorgeous and Wendy and Adrian are very keen to look after their guests and improve anything they can. We arrived to free range eggs, milk, a bottle of wine and a packet of dog treats! We spent most of the weekend playing board games with the log fire burning and keeping us all cozy, but also really enjoyed the beautiful walk up to the ridgeway and the kids loved exploring the farm. We would highly recommend staying here and hope to return for a longer visit next time.

- Ms Mcminn, August 2018
“Friendly and very welcoming.”

We had a enjoyable relaxing holiday

- Mrs Cozens, August 2018
“Absolutely lovely place to relax, Adrian, Wendy and young Harvey the owner family were very friendly and helpful.”

I would go back again no problem. Tempting to look at a christmas and new year booking, with the log burner would be very cosey!

- Mr Kelsall, August 2018
“The owners, Adrian and Wendy, are a very lovely and friendly couple who have only recently taken over the cottages.”

The cottages are very clean, in a peaceful location, but are less than a ten minute drive from the town of Newtown where there are plenty of shops, restaurants, supermarkets, takeaways and the like. The cottages have a very rustic and cosey feel, with beamed ceilings, bare brick walls and an inglenook fireplace. They are also well equipped for disabled members of the family having a ground floor bedroom with a full-access bathroom. We had the larger of the four barn conversions which slept upto nine very comfortably. Collectively the cottages would be ideal for a large family gathering. We certainly enjoyed our time at Garden Cottage and will certainly return. Shaun and Helen T
