The idyllic country cottage that's in the middle of a cattle field and can only be accessed on foot

If you've always dreamed of getting away from it all there's a country house that's gone up for sale that could be just the thing.

It's certainly remote - for starters, you can't even get to it by road - and the only neighbours you'll have around you are cows.

That's because Oakfield House in Rhiwderin is situated in its own third of an acre plot right in the middle of a cattle field that's only accessible by paved pathway.

Whoever buys the house will have to drive to it via a farm track leading off the A468 before parking up next to the field gate and continuing from there on foot.

On the market for offers of around £400k, the unusual property also comes complete with its own small orchard and is just a stone's throw away from the bustling city of Newport - not that you'd know it amidst all that greenery.

The detached home offers four bedrooms, a cloakroom/toilet, separate bathroom, lounge, a large dining room, kitchen, porch and generous entrance hall.

There's also a stone built outhouse in the grounds.

The property is in need of general updating and only cash buyers will be considered.
