The Loft

Tucked away in the countryside and off the beaten track is this rustic, first-floor apartment, The Loft, in Llanbister Road near Knighton. A lovely bolthole on a working farm for exploring Mid Wales and Shropshire, this dog-friendly accommodation is ideal for romantic breaks or young families who love the outdoors.

You'll find an off-road parking space on arrival, set in a small enclosed garden area with a picnic bench, where you can savour your morning coffee whilst admiring the rural views. The apartment is set on the first floor of a former dairy.

Climb the 13 steps to find yourself among the eaves in a lovingly refurbished space with Velux windows framing idyllic views. You can prepare basic meals in the kitchen/diner, complete with a gas oven and hob, microwave, and fridge/freezer, along with a table seating four guests.

The double bedroom has a sitting area for all guests to relax on the sofa by the warmth of the impressive woodburning stove with a farmyard scene engraving, whilst watching the TV. An ideal space for young children, the second bedroom has a 2'4 single bed with a truckle, and access to the bathroom.

Here you can freshen up after long walks with a hot bath or rinse off using the hand held shower. There is also a dedicated shower and grooming area to wash off your four-legged friends after a walk.

A wonderful base for avid walkers and explorers, The Loft is a peaceful location with acres of common land and local footpaths to explore; close by, you'll find The Greyhound Inn for well-earned drinks. The market town of Knighton is a short drive away where you can stock up at the local convenience store, dine at the traditional pub of Horse & Jockey, or plan a day at Offa's Dyke Centre to embark on the scenic Offa's Dyke Path.
