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.
