House in Wales
Reasons to book
About this house rental
Fully equipped kitchen with gas hob, electric oven and Nespresso machine
-Comfortable living room with patio doors with garden views
Outdoor Space
Private garden, patio, and covered seating area with picnic bench, shared between the main house and annex. Enjoy countryside views, relax outdoors, and make the most of the fresh air together. An automatic lawn mower may operate occasionally.
Children and infants are very welcome. Please note the property is not specifically childproofed (no socket covers or corner guards), so supervision is required. The house has been a family home to a young child, and we can provide a high chair on request. The annex offers additional space and privacy, which can be especially useful for families. There is a small wildlife pond beyond the fenced garden—this is not accessible from the garden and must not be entered.
Nestled in peaceful countryside near Overton-on-Dee, Badgerbank Barn is a perfect rural retreat for families, couples, and groups looking to relax and explore the Welsh borders.
Just 2 miles away, the village offers shops, cafés, and scenic riverside walks along the River Dee, while Ellesmere (6 miles) is ideal for lakeside walks and nature lovers.
