Property code: 78329

Beautifully presented cottage enjoying fabulous views from its elevated location, perfect for walking and cycling close to the market town of Builth Wells.

Occupying a commanding position overlooking the River Wye, this stunning property offers friends and families the chance to immerse themselves in the rural tranquillity and soak up the panoramic views. Located amongst the rolling hills just north of the Brecon Beacons National Park, there are plenty of walks from your doorstep, but also lots of opportunities for adventures further afield.

After a busy day exploring, head home to spend sunny evenings on the elevated terrace appreciating the stunning view and clear skies. Spacious throughout, this semi-detached property is light and airy, making it an ideal place for a relaxing break. On entering, leave your coats and shoes in the porch before heading into the comfortable lounge, where you can snuggle up on the sofas of an evening. The kitchen/diner is next door with plenty of space to cook up some treats and dine together. Up the open-tread stairs, you’ll find three beautifully presented bedrooms, an en-suite shower room and family bathroom. Outside, there is a sun terrace and separate balcony from which to enjoy the views. You can also access the enclosed lawn via the slope.

Keen walkers and cyclists will find a wealth of routes close to the property and beyond, including those in and around the Brecon Beacons. The town of Brecon itself is 15 miles away and is a good starting point for adventures, whilst the highest peak, Pen-y-Fan, is 19 miles away. Canoeists won’t need to travel so far, as the River Wye is a short downhill walk from the property. If you are keen to wander around the local towns and villages, Builth Wells, a former Victorian spa town and now home to the Royal Welsh Showground, is 7.5 miles away and Hay-on-Wye, famous for its bookshops and literary festival, is 13 miles away.

A lovely property with stunning views . It is up a steep hill which is not for everyone . A car is a must to get around . Everything you need is catered for . A fabulous patio and Veranda for sitting out, with a large garden for the dog to run and play If this property had a hot tub and maybe a bigger tv it would have been even better .

A lovely, clean, spacious holiday home with stunning views. A relaxing base to explore the Brecon Beacons. Dog friendly, fluffy towels, comfortable beds and a delightful welcome hamper all helped to make our stay very enjoyable. Friendly, helpful host and well kept grounds. Plenty of outside space. A real gem.

Beautiful views out, situated in a good location for visiting great sites of interest. Covered outside seating blissful for reading my book and a glass of wine from the welcome pack. Dogs happy to have an enclosed lawn for games, little disjointed from house. Great places to eat out with the dogs in Brecon and Builth Wells. Had a restful stay. AlsoRead more good for when we cooked meals at the house. Hide

We had a great time at Sunny Bank, the cottage is spacious and well kitted out. The patio area is a real sun trap with beautiful views as is the covered balcony area accessed from the garage. This area was so lovely to sit and enjoy the views. The whole area including grassed garden area is very secure for dogs too.

Great property, amazing views, the covered balcony seating area is perfect for relaxing in the sunshine or even on a damp day watching the red kites fly over the woods nearby.

This has to be one of the best properties we've stayed in after years of coming to the Hay Festival.
