The Swan House is a pretty shuttered bungalow, beautifully refurbished to provide very comfortable four-bedroom accommodation and decorated throughout by the renowned decorator Penny Morrison. There are two double bedrooms with king-size beds and two twin bedrooms with single beds, all beds having their own custom made bed heads with Egyptian cotton bed linen, goose down pillows and luxury quilts. There is a range style electric cooker in the fully fitted kitchen which opens to a light and sunny dining room/conservatory. The living room has large comfortable sofas and armchairs with an open fireplace and patio doors which open onto the south facing terrace. The terrace is surrounded by a good sized lawned garden with flower beds, ideal for relaxation and enjoying the superb views. The Swan House is centrally heated throughout, has its own washing machine and has two bathrooms and one shower room. Luxury cotton towels are provided for all guests and for their entertainment there is a TV, DVD/Video player, compact Hi Fi along with a selection of books and games.

The location is just off Offa's Dyke which is popular with walkers and historians. The towns of Presteigne, Knighton and Kington lie within a six mile radius of the Swan House. Each town has a traditional High Street with local butchers, greengrocers, bakers, cafes and pubs. It is 30 minutes to Hay-on-Wye (UK book centre with literary festivals), Ludlow (delightful Marches town and epicurean centre) and Hereford (Cathedral city), and 25 minutes to Leominster (antique centre). All fascinating towns to stroll around and explore. Enjoy lovely white beaches with big waves at Borth, a scenic one and a quarter hour drive west.
