The Great Escape House Draw brings you the chance to win unique properties in some of the most special locations in the UK. And where better to begin than minutes from the enchanting village of Gladestry, in the breathtaking countryside of Mid Wales, Powys? Global literary hotspot Hay-on-Wye is a 20 minute drive south, historic Builth Wells is 30 minutes to the west and the cathedral city of Hereford lies 45 minutes south east. Beautiful walking and cycling paths abound, including Offa’s Dyke National Trail and National Cycle Network’s Radnor Ring Route.
This contemporary sanctuary is set in acres of wildflower meadows among oak and birch trees outside Gladestry on the Wales-England border. Rarer than a sighting of The Last Dragon Of Wales, who’s said to sleep in nearby Radnor Forest, charming Gladestry is the kind of village that everyone is delighted to discover still exists. Picture-perfect stone houses, a lively village hall, primary school, ancient churches and a 17th century inn, The Royal Oak, are nestled into rolling hills. Above the village, wild ponies roam the heathered moorland of Hergest Ridge
