The pull of the countryside is undeniable, an escape from the bustle of city life. And an escape is what you'll get at this working farm in mid-Wales, swapping office shoes for wellington boots as you get up close and personal with Kunekune pet pigs and herds of cows. There's even a viewing platform where you can watch the daily milking. Close proximity to two rivers makes this home a fantastic choice for keen fishers. The cute village of Meifod is a short walk from the farm where a local pub serves hearty fare and real ales. And let's talk about the cottage itself, a decadent mix of redbrick features and oak beams that reflects its rural location with style. A perfect example is the living room with its wood-burning stove and arched brick hatch to the kitchen. This comfortable hideaway is swaddled by natural beauty, and it's yours to explore.
