The perfect getaway for our first Family holiday. 4 kids (3 under 18 months) and 2 adults. Orchard cottage was the perfect venue. Beautiful scenery, the pictures do not do it justice. Cottage was lovely and clean. 5 minute drive into town so can access shops easily too.

Beautiful property in stunning location. Spotlessly clean and so comfy. The sofas and beds were very comfortable and the whole place had a wonderful ambiance. The animals were friendly and loved being given carrot and apples. Just a lovely lovely place and the family at the big house were very helpful.

Orchard is a fantastic property, equipped with everything you would need for a family or friends stay. The surrounding gardens are beautiful, and it a great spot for peace and quiet. We explored Newtown on several days, enjoyed eating at the cafes and exploring the independent stores dotted around the high street. Would definitely visit again!
