Woodland Waterfalls, Llanidloes, Powys
Set in a large, 2 acre, sheltered and secluded garden and natural woodland, with babbling streams feeding 5 delightful pools, and a 6 metre waterfall, floodlit after dark. The garden has many paths, 8 benches, 4 swinging benches, huge hammock designed for 2 people and hanging chairs positioned for inspiring views of the trees, pools and utterly serene views over thickly wooded valleys and rolling green hills. For evening stargazing, there is a wood burning stove next to the double hammock by the waterfalls.
You can walk directly onto the hills from the top of the garden and enjoy wonderful panoramic views.
Otherwise, you can choose more level walks from the lane, passing rare breed sheep and angora goats.
The sky is regularly decorated with the aerial acrobatics of buzzards, and sometimes red kites or swallows.
