Coach House

Coach House is a charming retreat situated in a stunning but hidden part of Wales, nestled into the foothills of the Cambrian mountains, which recently featured in a BBC documentary called “the last wilderness of Wales”. Here, you have all the beauty of neighbouring national parks but without the crowds.

Yet, we are within driving distance of the coast of Aberaeron for whale watching, Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, a slightly short drive to the dark sky zone of the Elan Valley (although our skies are equally dark), and wild swimming in Abergwesyn. But being located inside the Lofftwen Forest Farm Ecological Project, there is no need to get in the car with private access to 320 acres of restoring wildlife habitat to explore from your doorstep, and many miles of rarely travelled footpaths and bridleways beyond, all bristling with nature and stunning views.

And because every penny you spend here is reinvested back into the Lofftwen Project, your stay at the Coach House will have directly contributed to restoring the habitats you are walking through. Despite feeling like you’re in the middle of nowhere, local shops, pubs, train station and an award-winning restaurant are only a short walk along a grassy track.

It’s the best of all worlds. With off-road parking for four cars, partial ground-floor living, two woodburning stoves, a games room, wood fired hot tub, and welcoming two well-behaved pets, this delightful property is perfect for families or friends seeking a tranquil escape amidst breathtaking natural beauty.

Park up the cars outside this large countryside abode, a former Victorian Coach House and laundry built in the Arts and Crafts tradition. The heart of the home is the kitchen/diner, fully equipped for all your culinary needs.

Adjacent to this, the dining room comfortably seats ten guests, making it the perfect spot for enjoying home-cooked meals. The characterful sitting room, complete with comfy sofas, Smart TV and woodburning stove, provides a warm space for relaxation.
