The gatehouse at Llwyn y Maen enjoys one of the loveliest locations in the Welsh borders - set down a long private track in the beautiful grounds of one of Britain's best-regarded country house garden designers; it really is a special place. Having been in the same family hands since when it was built, this Welsh estate is technically now on the English side of the border and surrounded by bucolic parkland.
We're delighted to be sole agents, as this house reflects our values of authentic conservation, impeccable detailing and has gardens that we can but dream of for ourselves!
Guests who stay in this impeccably restored historic home enjoy access to the gardens and parkland, and there are excellent woodland and river walks on the estate. Just a mile or so takes you into historic Oswestry with its timber-framed buildings and many independent shops and cafes, this is some of the closest accommodation to Oswestry private school (only a mile distant). Explore places like NT Powis Castle, Pontcysllte aqueduct (World Heritage Site) or the many charming country towns and villages that straddle the border.
