  • A charming half timbered Grade II listed 16C cottage with stunning views across the countryside
  • Within walking distance of the River Wye and market town of Hay on Wye
  • Enjoying a private location with immediate access onto the Offa’s Dyke footpath
Property code: 78078

Simply charming and full of character, this Grade II listed cottage sits peacefully below a small hamlet on a private lane off  the Offa’s Dyke footpath offering stunning views across the countryside, perfect for small families and couples whatever the time of year.

Overflowing with charm, this half-timbered Grade II listed 16th-century cottage is located in the peaceful hamlet of Bronydd. Sleeping four people over two bedrooms and welcoming two four-legged friends, it’s the perfect accommodation option for small families or groups of friends who really want to immerse themselves in stylish country living. Step inside and you’ll find a boot room, where you can remove your boots and towel-down any muddy pups. Wander along the hallway and you’ll discover a farm-style kitchen with everything you need for an evening’s cooking. Gather your loved ones around the table in the dining room, or, if it’s a nice evening, head out to the front of the cottage where you’ll find a raised terrace. Strike up the BBQ and soak up views across the Wye Valley as you eat. After dinner, pour a glass of wine and make your way to the living room to curl up in front of the wood burner. When the day is done climb the wooden stairs and you’ll find two lovely bedrooms, including one that boasts fabulous dual aspect country views. This property offers some wonderful walking routes right from its doorstep. It enjoys direct access to Offa’s Dyke Path, is a 177-mile-long walking trail that follows the dyke King Offa ordered to be constructed in the 8th century. Alternatively, spend a day wandering around the bookstores in Hay-on-Wye (2.5 miles). Make sure you treat yourself to tea and cake in one of the town’s gorgeous tearooms. Or, if you’re looking for something a little stronger, head to Black Mountains Botanicals (12 miles) for a ‘Gin-Making Experience’. The master distiller will teach you how to distil your very own personal bottle of gin.

Delightfull cottage, tastfully decorated! Comfortabele and warm also due to the aga. The bed and sheets are very good. Even in midwinter the garden is very nice and must be stunning in the summer. Enjoyed the walks in the black mountains and the brecon beacons. Hay on Wye is the place to be for coffee and shopping. And the Oakchurch Farm in the dirRead moreection of Hereford was our favorite.

Chapel cottage is absolutely beautiful, more spacious than expected and really homely. Despite the wether being dodgy we had a wonderful stay. Lots of walks for the dog and internet for the son! The little welcome touches were very much appreciated and if you happen to be travelling with a vegan we found plenty of options locally.

The cottage is really very lovely, quiet, comfortable and I imagine very cosy in the winter time. We had glorious weather and sat outside and the garden is just beautiful with the scent of roses and a very pastoral view - with sheep grazing. The walk along Offa's Dyke path is well worth doing. The cottage is also very well placed for trips to Hay.
