Powys planners have given the green light to turn “The Mirchi” into two holiday apartments.
The change of use planning application had been made by Gwilym Powell, who also runs the Bear Hotel in the town.
The changes will see the 130 square metre restaurant split into two holiday lets.
One apartment would have one bedroom and the other two bedrooms.
A similar planning application had been lodged last summer, but was later withdrawn.
Planning case officer Rhian Griffiths said: “Attempts to let the premises for use as a restaurant have been unsuccessful during this time, and therefore an application for the change of use of the building has been submitted as an alternative solution.
