This stylish country escape sits proudly above Hay-on-Wye offering spectacular views across to the Black Mountains. The spacious accommodation and gardens are perfect for family gatherings and celebrations.
This quirky Georgian farmhouse is located beside the famous literary book town of Hay-on-Wye where beautiful bookshops, independent eateries and a lengthy history charms all who visit. It’s a large property, big enough for up to 11 guests and two dogs, so you can plan a family or group getaway. This cottage has been beautifully decorated combining original features with modern updates to provide a comfortable stay in this characterful abode.
Welcome your guests into the drawing room, the perfect place to set the scene for the holiday. Complete with high ceilings, exposed beams and an open fire, this room offers a nod to the house’s history, dating as far back as 1860. A second reception room can be found just across the fall, offering further seating as well as a TV which is perfect for film nights. The kitchen is generously sized, with windows looking out into the garden and a large breakfast bar for your morning coffee. Chic cabinets and worktops offer ample space to store and prepare meals so that a family feast can be cooked up with ease. Next door, the dining room features an original Aga, as well as a dining table seating 11. Upstairs are all six bedrooms offering flexibility in the sleeping arrangements. Each of the rooms has been tastefully decorated in an array of calming colours whilst two of them boat en-suites for added privacy. Enveloping the property are the private grounds where you can enjoy a morning stroll and time at the children’s play area, as well as relaxing on the terrace area complete with a table, chairs and a BBQ for outdoor dining.
Despite being located inland, The Warren (2 miles) is a lovely local beach on the banks of a river for peaceful picnics and early morning dips. Avid walkers can relish the opportunity to join the well-known Offa’s Dyke footpath, accessible just a couple of miles from your front door. Alternatively, challenge yourself to climb the heights of Pen Y Fan (20 miles), a great family-friendly mountain walk with sublime panoramic viewpoints en route to the summit.
