Hidden in the beautiful Vale of Kerry lies The Forest; a splendid Victorian country house B&B set in 4 acres of attractive gardens and paddocks. Its 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 at Welshpool. 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 offers an ideal rural retreat away from the rush and bustle of modern life.
