Outside, there is an enclosed rear garden with hot tub and furniture, as well as off-road parking for 2 cars accessed via a driveway shared with one other property. WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen and towels are all included in the price. This property is pet-friendly and offers a highchair and travel cot. Sorry, smoking is not permitted. The Lodge is an idyllic setting for a countryside retreat in Powys.
