The property

Perched on the banks of the River Severn in the bustling town of Newtown, Varley Villa is an attractive wood lodge offering the ultimate retreat to Wales for a small family or couple.

Set across the ground floor, this well-designed cottage has all the necessary features for guests travelling with limited mobility, making this the perfect choice for any escape.

As you enter into this light and homely abode, discover an open-plan living space beautifully decorated with traditional oak furnishings and cheerful yellow hues, as well as boasting a gorgeous cream country-style kitchen hosting all the essential appliances.

Delight in a hearty meal at the dining table or open up the bi-fold doors and head out onto the veranda for dinner alfresco, watching as the sun sets on another fabulous day exploring the breath-taking Montgomeryshire countryside.

Retreat back indoors to the warm and restful seating area, snuggling up on the plush leather sofa or curling up on the inviting plaid armchair as you watch an entertaining movie on the large flat-screen TV.

Move your way across the attractive herringbone floors to the two tranquil bedrooms adorned with pretty floral décor and abundance of storage space.

The bedrooms are made up of a double and a twin, and are served by a spacious wet room with a walk-in shower and a handy heated towel rail, as well as a basin and WC.

When you can just about tear yourself away from this darling home-away-from-home, cross the river to the heart of the town and uncover a plethora of shops, pubs, and restaurants, as well as a cinema and captivating attractions such as The Robert Owen Museum and Newtown Textile Museum.

Venture along to the 13th century remains of Dolforwyn Castle before spending the afternoon cycling along the Montgomery Canal Nature Reserve, or hiking Llyn Mawr Nature Reserve.

Challenge yourself as you climb to the heights of Roundton Hill where you will be rewarded with 360-views, or cross the border to England for an action-packed adventure exploring the Shropshire Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Wander the grand and well-kept lawns of Glansevern Hall Gardens or travel to the Rhiw Valley Light Railway, a real hit with those travelling with children.

Visit Llanidloes and see the Bryntail Lead Mine Buildings, or travel to Corris for a day out at King Arthur's Labyrinth.

See the Welshpool Cockpit and wander Glyndwr's Way, or stop by the National Trust-owned Powis Castle and Gardens.

18th century jails and an 11th century fortress await you in the town of Shrewsbury, as well as an 11th century abbey, boasting many historical displays.

Discover this glorious part of Wales on a holiday like no other at Varley Villa.
