3 Bedroom Cottage in Welsh Frankton, Oswestry
Quietly refurbished to the highest standards, Roft Bank Cottage is a secluded countryside retreat where rustic character meets a carefully considered modern finish. Designed as a place to slow down and truly settle in, the cottage offers a generous open plan living space centred around a wood burning stove, a natural focal point that brings warmth and a sense of occasion to everyday life.
Surrounded by mature woodland and an open, gently banked field, the setting feels wonderfully private and unspoiled. From the moment you arrive, the pace begins to soften. The cottage sits within its own grounds, sheltered by trees and bordered by open countryside, creating a sense of escape that feels immersive rather than remote. It's an ideal base for exploring the landscape, or for doing very little at all.
At the heart of the house, the sitting room is designed for genuine comfort and ease. Generous without feeling formal, it immediately invites you to slow down. Soft seating is arranged to encourage conversation and shared time, whether that's stretching out with a book, settling in for a film, or playing board games as evening draws in. The wood burning stove anchors the space, its gentle glow shaping the atmosphere through cooler months and drawing everyone naturally together at the end of the day. By daylight, soft natural light filters in through the windows, shifting across the room and subtly connecting the space to the woodland and gardens beyond. Calm, natural tones reflect the surrounding landscape, creating a room that feels warm, restorative and quietly comforting, a place where lingering comes easily.
The kitchen and dining space flow naturally from the sitting room, forming the social heart of the cottage. The kitchen is practical yet elegant, designed for proper cooking rather than holiday compromise, with ample workspace and an adjoining utility room that supports longer stays, muddy boots and life outdoors. The dining area invites shared meals, unhurried breakfasts planning the day ahead, leisurely lunches, and evenings spent eating well together before drifting back to the fire.
Upstairs, the bedrooms are calm and carefully considered, each offering a space to retreat while remaining connected to the landscape beyond. Bedroom One enjoys the privacy of an en‑suite bathroom, ideal for unhurried mornings. Bedroom Two and Bedroom Three are equally welcoming and well proportioned, sharing the main bathroom with ease. The layout suits couples, families or small groups, striking a comfortable balance between togetherness and privacy.
Outside, Roft Bank Cottage truly comes into its own. A gravel terrace beside the house is set with a solid wooden table seating six, perfectly placed for long lunches and relaxed evening meals. Nearby, built in wooden benches arranged around a firepit create a natural gathering place as the day cools, somewhere to sit with a glass in hand, watch the flames catch, and ease into the evening. Lawns stretch gently towards the woodland edge, offering space to roam, relax or simply pause. With two well-behaved dogs welcome, the grounds and surrounding countryside quickly become part of the daily rhythm of the stay.
Days begin gently here. Wake to the sound of birdsong and the countryside filtering through the trees, enjoy morning coffee outdoors by the water's edge, or wander straight from the garden into woodland paths and the quiet valley beyond. Time can be spent watching light move through the leaves, spotting wildlife along the stream, or returning indoors to unwind in the sitting room with a book, film or shared game. The cottage encourages exactly this kind of living, unhurried, attentive and grounded in the moment.
Set in a quiet valley on the North Wales-Shropshire border, Roft Bank Cottage offers both seclusion and access to a rich and varied landscape. Walks are plentiful, from gentle local routes to longer trails further afield, with Snowdonia and its dramatic scenery within reach by car. Oswestry lies nearby for independent shops and cafés, while Shrewsbury and Chester, both around thirty minutes away, provide historic streets, culture and excellent dining when a change of pace appeals.
What sets Roft Bank Cottage apart is its private access to the estate gardens and grounds, offering guests a rare sense of space, freedom and quiet privilege. Combined with thoughtful refurbishment and a naturally beautiful setting, it creates a retreat that feels both special and deeply comfortable. Byngwilla Gate Lodge is also situated on the Brynkinalt Estate, sleeping two guests.
Roft Bank Cottage is not simply somewhere to stay. It is a place to live well for a while, to step outside without agenda, to gather around the fire as evening falls, and to enjoy the luxury of time spent slowly and together.
