Details
These five traditional Welsh barns on a working, organic, beef, sheep and cereal farm, have been converted to provide quality accommodation for families or small groups looking for a countryside experience within striking distance of some of the UK’s finest attractions. The Collfryn Estate is surrounded by the pure and natural beauty of the mid Wales countryside.
The nearest village Llansantffraid is a small, self sufficient village with a couple of pubs, shops, a garage and café. The village itself is almost entirely encircled by water from the rivers Vyrnwy, Cain and Tanat, and the Berwyn Mountains provide a beautiful backdrop, making it a truly wonderful and relaxing place to visit.
Due to its great geographical position, Collfryn Estate is literally a few miles away from the border counties of Shropshire and Cheshire, and the North Wales areas of Gwynedd and Clwyd.Ideal for families or small groups looking for a countryside experience within striking distance of many fine attractions.
There are four National Trust properties locally, the nearest being Powis Castle, then Chirk Castle, Attingham Park and Erddig. Activities nearby include horse riding, golf, excellent walking, mountain biking, motorcycle scrambling, paintballing, go karting, bowling, kayaking, white water rafting, gorge walking and quad trekking. Explore lime kilns, Llanymynech Rocks Nature Reserve, canals or take a trip on the Llanfair light steam railway. Visit Park Hall working farm, the Theatre Severn in Shropshire and the medieval town of Shrewsbury. The historic city of Chester is within easy reach, with its zoo, cathedral, racecourse, Crocky Trail adventure playground and Blue Planet Aquarium. Visitors of all ages will enjoy Zip World and Bounce Below, which is located in Gwynedd, and the Cambrian coast, beautiful beaches and stunning Snowdonia are also worth a day trip. Beach 50 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 3 miles.
All four properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 26 guests.
