This is a spacious 4 bedroomed period farmhouse located on the south west corner of the sparsely-populated Cambrian Mountains, known as the Green Desert of Wales. Recently refurbished, it is full of character with exposed beams and a large inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove. Sleeping 8 in 4 bedrooms, the house will suit a larger or extended family. Central heating and fast WiFi are included and there is a good sized enclosed rear garden complete with a large decked area complete with a BBQ, table and chairs for outside dining. The house is situated at the centre of a large 1000 acre mountain farm, which guests are free to explore. The farmland varies in altitude from 700 to 1500 feet above sea level, with panoramic views of the Cambrian mountains on the higher elevations. Within the boundary of the farm, there are numerous pre-historic burial sites and abandoned homesteads that can be explored.

Steve and his family purchased the farm in 2016, and have since improved the lower level grazing, while maintaining the habitat areas at higher levels. Lowri and Alun work on the farm, and are available to assist during your stay.
