Set within a wildflower meadow with stunning valley views, this shepherd’s hut makes a romantic country retreat for a pet-loving pair. Private facilities and an outdoor kitchen complete the sense of seclusion, while walks from the doorstep deliver a daily dose of fresh air. Head to Brecon (5 miles) for supplies then snuggle by the wood burner or sit beside the fire pit for a night beneath famously starry skies.
Three separate huts make up this magical holiday hideaway. The first is a sheltered outdoor kitchen and dining area, equipped with all the glamping essentials while a bench and loungers close-by capture stunning views across the valley. The second hut houses a shower, a separate compost WC and a sink – a further WC near the car park is fully plumbed-in. Blending into the landscape, the beautiful shepherd’s hut is your main living space. Climb the wooden steps and the interior is simply charming, with country-style décor and a wood burner for all-weather appeal. Take a seat on a wooden stool and admire the scenery, or climb onto the dreamy double bed for blissful slumbers. The enclosed garden has a picnic bench and fire pit, while a bench in the field above offers far-reaching views across the Brecon Beacons.
Private parking for two cars means you can unpack at leisurely pace. Views of the Brecon Beacons, Hay Bluff (15 miles) and the Black Mountains (27 miles) provide inspiration for keen walkers and cyclists, while numerous trails start from the doorstep. Head to at Llangorse Lake (5 miles) for water sports, fishing and walks at the water’s edge, or visit Brecon to see its iconic cathedral and wander through a maze of narrow streets lined with Georgian and Jacobean shopfronts. Hay-on-Wye, with its fine choice of bookshops and weekly farmers’ market, is 14 miles away.
