The property

Trefonen 1.4 miles.

The Dinky Dairy is a delightful barn tucked away in Treflach, Shropshire.

Suited to couples seeking a characterful base in the county, this farm stay brings together rural charm and thoughtful touches in a setting shaped by open fields and livestock, with designated parking, far-reaching countryside views, a woodburning stove, and handsome original beams rising into vaulted ceilings.

The sitting room invites slow mornings and unhurried evenings, with the woodburning stove adding a lovely focal point when the weather turns cooler.

Just beyond, the kitchen/diner provides everything needed for easy holiday cooking, whether you are setting out breakfast before a day of exploring or lingering over supper as daylight softens outside.

The ground-floor double bedroom offers an inviting place to settle in, while the shower room is smartly finished with a walk-in shower and heated towel rail.

Above, the mezzanine study creates a flexible extra nook, with a sofa bed and a perch from which to appreciate the barn’s shape and height.

Outside, the patio is a lovely place to sit with a drink and look across the surrounding land, where horses, dogs, and grazing sheep add to the sense of country life.

A pub lies nearby and a shop is only a short drive away, making it easy to balance days out with relaxed evenings back at the barn.

For exploring, head to Oswestry for a wander around Cae Glas Park, a visit to Old Oswestry Hill Fort, and time spent browsing the independent streets around the town centre.

Shrewsbury offers a richer mix of heritage and riverside charm, with Shrewsbury Castle, The Quarry, and Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery all worth adding to your plans.

For gentler scenery, spend time in Ellesmere, where The Mere, Cremorne Gardens, and canal-side walks around the wharf make for a lovely day out.

However you choose to spend your time, The Dinky Dairy makes a charming Shropshire retreat.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

TREFONEN

Oswestry 3.5 miles; Llanhaeadr-ym-Mochnant 8 miles; Shrewsbury 24 miles.

Trefonen is a rural village which stands between the ancient English border town of Oswestry and the Welsh village of Llanhaeadr-ym-Mochnant, home to Pistyll Rhaeadr, the UK’s highest single drop waterfall. This traditional village boasts a pub, shop and has Offa's Dyke pathway running through the village. It is located close to where the successful 1995 film “The Englishman Who Went up a Hill but Came Down a Mountain” was filmed. The whole area is surrounded by lovely countryside, which extends into the Berwyn Mountain Range - perfect for wonderful scenic walks and cycle trails, including along the Berwyn Ridge Pathway, the Offa’s Dyke Path and through the beautiful Tanat and Ceiriog Valleys. Visit the riverside town of Llangollen with the nearby Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (a World Heritage Site), Chirk and Powis Castles and Gardens, Erddig and Attingham Park, or visit the nearby market town of Ellesmere. Further afield lies the Welsh mountains and coast and picturesque Lakes Vyrnwy and Bala, while the World Heritage Site of Ironbridge, medieval Shrewsbury and the Roman city of Chester are also within driving distance. Trefonen is an ideal base for exploring Mid Wales, Shropshire and beyond.
