Hidden in the beautiful Vale of Kerry lies The Forest; a splendid Victorian country house B&B and self catering cottages set in 4 acres of attractive gardens and paddocks. The tranquil setting makes it the perfect place in which to relax and an ideal base from which to explore the many attractions of Mid Wales including Powis Castle National Trust. Less than a mile away is Kerry village which has a pub restaurant and it is a 5 minute drive from Newtown. On the border of Powys and Shropshire, The Forest is an ideal hideaway for a relaxing break away from the rush and bustle.
The Forest offers 5 star luxury B&B accommodation in 5 charming en-suite double rooms, one with a four-poster bed. All the bedrooms and the spacious drawing room have fine views of the garden and the Kerry Valley. Families with children of all ages are welcome.
The Bed and Breakfast
The Forest Country House B&B is a family run bed and breakfast and the home of Paul & Michelle Martin and their 2 young children. It is approached from a quiet rural lane leading to our main entrance where there is ample parking.
A warm welcome awaits you.
The Forest's secluded setting
The Forest, along with its self catering cottages, nestles in a narrow valley bordered by Gilfach woods and the little river Mule. Our quiet lane hardly sees any traffic apart from the odd tractor.
If you wish to bring dogs or horses then we have kennel and stable accommodation available in adjacent outbuildings.
