Accommodation overview: Bryn Tanat Hall is a 5 star country estate house, awarded the VisitBritain Gold Award, situated on the border of Shropshire and Powys, which sleeps twenty two people in ten bedrooms and is personally run by the family with enthusiasm and awareness of the needs of today’s visitors. Bryn Tanat Hall is full of character, sits in a beautiful location on the banks of the River Tanat, has a sense of history, a warm welcome and a relaxing atmosphere and is comfortable with superior standards and sumptuous without formality. Guests will appreciate the attention to detail: log fires, baby grand piano, a well-stocked library, antiques, stylish lighting, stunning wallpapers, silks and velvets.

Extra touches are also evident: buffets to fine dining, chef, maid and leaving cleaning service, wellbeing and pampering, activities from ceramic painting to salsa dancing and fishing, falconry and archery. Bryn Tanat Hall offers an unrivalled location for a perfect country holiday getaway, reunion and celebration - its south-facing sunny position overlooks the terraced gardens which are magnificently landscaped and ideal for outside entertaining. The gardens extend to 10 acres of woodland and parkland with goal posts, croquet lawn, boules and enough room to pitch a golf ball.
