Information
Highgate boasts two beautifully appointed newly converted self-catering
barn luxury cottages with charming
terrace. Its location immediately above a lovely trout pool,
enhanced by lawned gardens with attractive specimen
trees makes this a truly spectacular setting
Highgate Self Catering Holiday Cottages are 3 miles from Newtown, a charming market town on the Welsh borders. Unspoilt and undiscovered Mid Wales has much to offer the family on holiday. There are plenty of activities to choose from and there’s plenty of room for everyone – so if you enjoy the peace and quiet, you won’t need to worry that your relaxing walk is going to be disturbed.
The holiday cottages are an ideal base for visiting Offa’s Dyke, Britain’s longest (177 miles) archeological monument, built in the 8th century to mark the boundary between Wales and England. The River Severn rises near by at Plynlimon in the wild Cambrian Mountains, and there are many beautiful gardens to visit including the world famous garden of Powis Castle. Star gazing, golf, fishing, shooting (clays and birds) and 4x4 off-roading are all available close by. The coast and the more rugged scenery of Snowdonia National Park are only an hour’s drive. A mile over the hill from the self-catering cottages lays the New Inn, for a drink and a chat.
Both our cottages are converted from a 19th century barn
and stables. Both cottages are beamed and have oak
and ceramic floors with underfloor heating through out.
The Cottages are decorated, furnished and equipped to
a very high standard. The cottages have the benefit of a
private terrace overlooking the Trout Pool immediately
below, and lovely lawned gardens beyond.
