The property

Enjoying a fantastic setting in the heart of the attractive village of Newbridge on Wye near Llandrindod Wells in Powys, Mid-Wales, Pondarosa is the ideal location for a large holiday party getting together for a truly memorable break and is a superb base from which to explore this beautiful part of the world. Outside, there is ample off-road parking with delightful gardens to the front and well-maintained, enclosed gardens to the rear with lawns and a patio area, making it the perfect spot for spending time alfresco and soaking up the sunshine whilst on holiday here. On entering the property, visitors will be amazed by how deceptively spacious it is, with a good-sized sitting room welcoming guests in with comfy seating and a feature log burner, helping to create an inviting ambience. Walk through to the open-plan kitchen/diner, which is equipped with everything needed to whip up culinary delights for the holiday party. The designated chef will be more than happy with the space and amenities on offer here and you can imagine spending many a happy hour here eating, drinking and enjoying spending quality holiday time together. A great alternative space for guests to have fun is the games room. With six well-appointed bedrooms to choose from, everyone is catered for and guests can take their pick from a king-sized, super-king-sized or a twin on the ground floor or either a king-sized or super-king-sized with en-suites, and a twin on the firs floor. There is no need to worry about queuing for the bathroom either, with a bathroom and a shower room on the ground floor. Wake up in the morning refreshed and raring to go, enjoy a coffee on the patio area outside and plan your activities for the day. There is so much to see and do in the region around Pondarosa, it can be hard to know where to begin. Stroll into the delightful village of Newbridge on Wye and pick up holiday essentials and stop off for a pint, or hop in the car and head to the Victorian spa town of Llandrindod Wells, which is just a short drive away. Here, you will find an impressive selection of Victorian and Edwardian architecture and a great collection of independent shops and eateries. The town is known for its lake at Llandrindod Wells Lake Park, which is a popular spot to bring a picnic on sunny days and from here, you can head off for all kinds of walks and hikes from the most gentle to something a little more adventurous. If you’ve got a taste for the great outdoors, head to destinations such as Radnor Forest and Elan Valley, or for the ultimate in healthy hikes, outstanding scenery and captivating wildlife, take a trip to the Brecon Beacons, which are a short drive from Llandrindod Wells and well worth a visit. The National Cycle Museum is worth taking the time to visit whether you’re a cyclist or not; it offers a fascinating insight into the history of two-wheelers from the Penny Farthing through 200 years of history and bringing things bang up to date with the latest, cutting-edge carbon fibre machines. With 250 items on display and 6,000 square feet of space, there is certainly plenty to see and the venue is child and dog-friendly. Rock Park is a Grade II listed area of green space, which is perfect for getting some fresh air and a healthy walk. Dating back to the 1860s, check out the park’s arboretum, river trails, sculptures and Victorian spa buildings. The attractive Welsh market town of Rhayader is a great location for a holiday outing and other towns and villages worth visiting in the region include Builth Wells, Hay on Wye and Welshpool, which offer different attractions and activities, but all give equally friendly welcome to visitors. The possibilities are endless with a trip to Pondarosa and one visit just isn’t enough.
