About this property

A delightful, terraced cottage tucked away on a small lodge park on the edge of the village of Crossgates, surrounded by beautiful rolling mid-Wales countryside.

This lovely cottage is an ideal base for couples or a small family looking to make the most of exploring the surrounding area, local pubs and restaurants and a myriad of days out.

In this welcoming cottage, set over one floor, there are two separate bedrooms (one double and one single) sharing an en-suite shower room.

Enter in through the newly appointed door through to the inviting sitting room which has a wall-mounted TV and WiFi. The sitting room benefits from a double bed settee, the extra linen is stored in the master bedroom.

The fully equipped kitchen with electric oven, hob and fridge/freezer is a wonderful space to whip up delicious meals. A stable style door leads to the enclosed sundeck.

A second shower room leads off the sitting room.

Outside, you can sit on the private enclosed decking where you can enjoy an early morning coffee and chat about the plans for the day ahead.

There is a café, shop and garage in the nearby village of Crossgates to make it a great base for exploring the nearby Cambrian Mountains or Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons).

This attractive cottage is also just a short drive away from the pretty spa town of Llandrindod Wells, a perfect location to enjoy the spacious park and lakes, an area that is known as a perfect base for walking, golf and cycling, with its annual cycling festival.

You are also ideally placed to explore the diverse local landscape with nearby stretches of common land, the undulating Cambrian Mountains with the majestic Elan Valley being just 12 miles away.

Close by is the pretty market town of Rhayader, where you can watch the fabulous red kites being fed and their aerobatic displays.

A little further away is Builth Wells, home of the Royal Welsh Showground and its busy calendar of annual events.

Slightly further afield, the Shropshire Hills AONB open up at the popular market town of Knighton, offering beautiful walks along Offa’s Dyke or Glyndwr’s Way.

Or visit the famous town of books, Hay-on-Wye.

Why not take a day out to travel to majestic National Trusts’ Powys Castle which a scenic drive north?

A perfectly formed compact cottage close to an historic market town and providing a superb base to enjoy the diverse countryside and quaint local towns and villages.

Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1103468 (Primrose Cottage), together sleeping up to 10 guests.

There is a general store and a petrol station in the little village of Crossgates, which is located in the wooded hills of Mid Wales. Trails go through woodland and along rivers, or if you prefer a more daunting challenge, you may drive a short distance to adjacent mountains like the Cambrian Mountains or the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons). Shops, museums, craft centres, pubs, tea rooms, and restaurants abound in the nearby towns of Llandrindod Wells, Rhayader, and Builth Wells. Explore Rhayader's Red Kite Feeding Station, the Elan Valley Lakes, or the Phil Price Rally School to get up up and personal with these majestic birds of prey.

The ideal setting for a family vacation.

    It does accommodate 4 people but I think it's more suited for 2, 3 max. One thing I missed was a washing machine since we stayed for a week and with a child and a dog we were constantly muddy. And even washing by hand I struggled to find a place to hang our clothes. That is in my opinion the only downfall. It could've also been cleaner.. but that wasn't an issue since I always clean beforehand anyway. Overall we were very happy with the cottage and with the little things that show the owners care, for instance there were loads of entertainment (books, games etc) and a handwritten note of places to visit around the area. The extra bathroom was thoughtful but we didn't use it, the space could've been used as a laundry room. My dog loved the patio, he's a funny one because he doesn't like being wet and it was raining throughout our stay so being able to go quickly for a potty was brilliant. I am very happy with sykecottages services and will for sure book more holidays. Thank you very much

    Lots of dog walks. Very nice! All the people were nice that we met and we loved having breakfast and our tea in the courtyard

  • Valerie

    the area we explored was brilliant and we spent a lot of time watching the Red kites, it would help if the Television in the front room worked better as it kept freezing but we did not worry but your next tenants might be thankyou for the stay and we cannot wait to come back again
