The College Barn is a stunning thatched cottage on a 60-acre organic farm in Mid Wales, just 4 miles from Newtown. This beautifully refurbished 4-star retreat sits among rolling green hills where Highland cows graze and red kites soar overhead. Perfect for those who want countryside without isolation.
You'll love the peace here. No light pollution means star-gazing from your private hot tub is spectacular. The large enclosed garden is ideal for dogs (one welcome), though they'll need leads beyond it due to livestock. Fancy meeting an emu? The farm's award-winning produce and friendly animals make this accommodation special.

Inside sleeps 4 across two bedrooms - one with king-size bed, another with super-king that converts to twins if needed. There's even a garden cabin with fold-away bed for extra options. The rustic kitchen has everything for proper cooking and leather sofas surround the wood burner (first basket of logs included). Two bathrooms mean no morning queues.
Explore Powis Castle (15 miles, 25 minutes), take vintage railway trips, visit Gregynog Hall (6 miles, 15 minutes), or explore Montgomery Castle (12 miles, 20 minutes). Newtown's shops and restaurants are just 3 miles away when you need civilization.
The College Barn offers that rare combo - genuine character with modern comforts. Couples love the hot tub under stars, families appreciate the space and your dog gets countryside walks from the door. Book before someone else does!
