	A large detached self catering holiday house in Painscastle Welsh Borders wales



	Trowley Farmhouse is a detached self catering holiday house, dating back to the 16th century, surrounded by open countryside on a 400 acre, family run working farm. Guests staying in this unspoilt rural location enjoy extensive views of the Begwyn Hills and can see the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons. The area has extensive woodland and abundant wildlife. It is situated in absolute peace and quiet in a superb location at the end of a private lane, secluded but not isolated.

	Interior


	Oak beams, thick stone walls, an original bread oven and quarry tiles retain much of the character of the original building, whilst every modern convenience is provided to make guests comfortable, in all seasons. Bigger than the average holiday cottage Trowley Farmhouse is perfect for family gatherings, get-togethers and as a rural retreat. It has been recently redecorated with improved facilities. Ground Floor: The house is entered by a wide entrance porch with stone benches, ideal for walking boots, coats, wet dogs, storing dry wood etc. Oak beams, thick stone walls and an original bread oven in the large farmhouse kitchen retain much of the character of the original building.
