Modern comfort meets characterful original features in this converted farmhouse, a beautifully restored property sleeping up to 10 guests, complete with uninterrupted views across the Wye Valley. In true farmhouse style, the property sits on a working farm, surrounded by big skies, open countryside, and fields filled with animals that younger guests can visit each morning. Lace up your walking boots or hop on a mountain bike to explore the area, with the banks of the River Wye just 1 mile away and the mighty Bannau Brycheiniog / Brecon Beacons National Park within 10 miles. Head to Llangorse Lake (15 miles), where an activity centre offers guided horse riding, water sports, and mountain-based activities, or simply enjoy a peaceful walk around the tranquil lake. Spend time in Hay-on-Wye (10.5 miles) or Brecon (13 miles), both boasting eclectic town centres, family-run businesses, and welcoming eateries, or make your way to Builth Wells (8 miles), home to the annual Royal Welsh Show.

Welcoming guests with a warm and cosy atmosphere, this three-storey property has been lovingly maintained in a traditional style, with original beams, exposed brick walls, and inglenook fireplaces throughout. Head straight into the dine-in kitchen, where a Range cooker sits alongside all the modern appliances you may need, including an air fryer and coffee machine. A few steps away, the first of the property’s bathrooms features a delightful slipper bath, ideal for long, relaxing soaks. When it is time to unwind, choose between the snug and the main lounge. The snug features plenty of comfortable seating and a peaceful atmosphere, making it ideal for reading or planning the days ahead. The lounge is home to a wood burner, which casts a warm glow over the space as you get stuck into a board game or enjoy a movie night. Both rooms have a Smart TV, perfect for when you cannot decide what to watch. Head upstairs to discover four bedrooms furnished with antiques and dressed in soft, luxurious linens, each as inviting as the last. The master bedroom features a super-king-size bed. The four remaining bedrooms on this floor comprise a king-size, a double, a small double and a twin, each with a charming window seat. All four bedrooms are served by a second family bathroom. The fifth and final bedroom is on the third floor, featuring a king-size bed, a separate seating area, and a Smart TV, making it ideal for guests seeking a little extra privacy.

Look forward to sunny afternoons or embrace cold, dark nights beneath the starry skies in this property’s exceptional garden.
