Perched high on the rolling Welsh hills, this secluded 30-acre hideaway offers a rare blend of privacy, adventure, and timeless charm. Once the hilltop retreat of explorer and author Christina Dodwell, the property is filled with maps, books, artefacts, and a sense of wanderlust that inspires the imagination. Surrounded by woodland, fields, and sweeping views of Raglan Castle and Sugarloaf Mountain, it’s an idyllic setting for multi-generational family gatherings.
Perfectly designed for large groups, the estate combines a spacious farmhouse and a beautifully converted barn to host up to 24 guests across 10 bedrooms. You’ll find three fully equipped kitchens, expansive dining space, and multiple lounges for everyone to unwind. Outdoors, a heated swimming pool (seasonal), hot tub, sun terraces, croquet lawn, and grassy ball game areas ensure there’s something for every age. The on-site walking and jogging paths, winding through the orchard and woodland, bring the countryside right to your doorstep.
Ideal for those seeking both comfort and adventure, the property suits extended families, walking groups, and pet owners looking for wide open spaces to explore.
