A family home that once operated as a B&B and has its own wild swimming pool has been put up for sale for £750,000.

If you're looking for somewhere to run as a business – then this might just be the perfect spot, with six bedrooms and a major improvement programme by its former owners.

Located in Dolanog in northern Powys, the living space is arranged over four floors, with a first floor annexe and lower ground space – currently used as a games room and workshop – providing a potential revenue stream for its new owners.

The pool, officially named Lyn Dolanog, is a huge feature of the property and is fully stocked with trout and carp with water lilies around the edge along with specimen trees. A condition of the planning permission at Tan Yr Allt is that the pool cannot be used as a standalone fishery and is only used by owners and guests of the property.

There is also a pontoon bridge allowing access to a decked sun bathing area, which can also be used for al fresco dining, along with three decked jetties. It is reported that the pool is frequently visited by an otter, a heron and a pine martin.

Included in the sale is a glazed summer house which is currently used as a workshop but would make a fantastic studio and has a wood burning stove.

Peter Daborn, director in the residential sales team at Savills in Telford, whose team are handling the sale, says: “At a time when temperatures have been soaring and we’ve all been looking at ways to keep cool, this beautiful family home has just the answer – its very own wildlife and swim pool!
