    “The cabin was lovely with all the facilities required for a comfortable stay.”

    The only downside was the access to the cabin from Bleddfa was a mile drive along a narrow track full of potholes. It was really only suitable for a 4x4 vehicle. I would not recommend it for anyone with any mobility problems. Apart from that we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

    Thank you so much for coming to stay at Ploony. We are really pleased you had a wonderful stay. The byway leading up to Ploony does become pot holey in the wet weather but hopefully guests can forgive this to arrive at Ploony which is in the middle of the beautiful countryside. It does state on the website that the council byway is unsuitable for low suspension vehicles, most vehicles that come to Ploony are not 4x4 and if going slow, manage fine. Unfortunately the byway becomes worse in wet weather, we do try to maintain it as often as possible. Many thanks Take care Lindsey and Darren. Property Owner

The property

Knighton 7.5 miles.

A welcoming holiday base from which to explore the countryside of Wales, Ploony Hill Cabin is a wonderful choice for a rural retreat, at any time of the year.

Surrounded by luscious green fields and resting on the Wales/England border, this all-ground-floor abode is ideally located for an escape as a couple, family or with friends on a relaxing break.

Step into the beauty of the open-plan living space, boasting a homely aura for you to spend your time in when you're not out adventuring; light up the woodburning stove and pour yourself a refreshing beverage before snuggling into the sofa and flicking on the Smart TV for the evening's entertainment.

Carry your conversations over to the dining table at meal times, the amply-equipped kitchen hosting all you could need to prepare a lovingly-made meal, or use this space to play a board game brought from home!

The patio makes the perfect space to unwind at any time of year, with a table for outdoor dining as well as an inviting hot tub, there's no better place to watch the sun set over the countryside.

End your day with a refreshing rinse in the shower or choose an indulgent soak in the bath before unwinding beneath the plush duvet of your chosen bedroom, taking your pick from the master king-size and accompanying twin, which can conveniently be made into a super-king-size on request for all of your group needs.

Begin each day with a cup of coffee on the patio, your canine companions enjoying a morning stretch, before enjoying a tasty lunch in the local pub, Hundred House Inn, followed by a leisurely stroll along the waterside.

For a wider host of amenities take a trip into the market town of Knighton, resting on the banks of the River Teme on the fringes of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, you can expect to find even more stunning scenery here, with plenty of eateries to take your pick from with beautiful backdrops, as well as a good range of supermarkets to pick up your own fresh ingredients.

A renowned area for walking, cycling and riding, Knighton boasts a section of Offa's Dyke Path and Owain Glyndwr's Way running through it, giving you easy access to the surrounding natural wonders of the area, as well as the Radnor Forest and Radnor Ring Cycling Route hosting 84 miles of cycling spots being in easy reach.

Venture out to Llandrindod Wells and follow its enticing heritage trail to learn more about the rich history of the area, the National Cycle Museum and the Radnorshire Museum being must-sees too, or take to the waters of a paddle boat on the lake for a fun-filled day to remember.

Visit Ludlow with its medieval 13th century castle, ancient buildings and architecture as well as the wonder of the Whitcliffe Common Nature Reserve, or explore the excitement of the Shropshire Hills for all manner of outdoor activity.

Ploony Hill Cabin makes a spectacular choice for an escape to the countryside of Wales.
