In a glorious location beside The Dulas Brook, this cottage is perfect for a family get together. Potter amongst the wild ponies or stroll to the bustling town of Hay-on Wye for a little retail therapy.

Escape to this glorious cottage and make yourselves at home amongst creature comforts, period features and the beautiful interior. Sleeping seven guests, enjoy countryside living with friends, family and two canine companions. Sitting beside the Dulas Brook, enjoy a waterside wander straight from your door, or head into Hay-on-Wye (1.5 miles) and visit the array of eateries, bookshops and Hay Castle.

 

Enter this beautiful abode and admire the exposed beams, stonework and traditional features which appear throughout. With comfy sofas, the lounge has many a cosy spot in which to curl up and relax in front of the wood burner – a welcome comfort after days spent in the great outdoors. The kitchen has an oil Rayburn so you can cook up a storm and experiment with delicious flavours; the dishwasher will make light work of clearing up after meals. The flagstone floor is fitted with underfloor heating for a touch of luxury whilst the original charm is maintained. Plate up at the dining table where a second wood burner throws heat into the room, or dine alfresco on the small, enclosed patio. Climb oak stairs to rest your head in one of four bedrooms with characterful beams and sloping ceilings – also upstairs is the bathroom where you can enjoy a shower or a soak in the bath.

The house is lovely but the sitting area is small for 7 people. Disappointed in the Christmas decorations! Nice walks and area.

Lovely cottage located just a 20 minute walk into Hay itself. Very friendly and helpful owners. We had a lovely Sunday lunch at The Three Tuns whilst there and spent a rainy day looking through the book stores. Beds super comfortable and the accommodations were perfect.

This was a family break for 3 generations and a dog, and it was perfect. Quiet peaceful location, beautifully presented and there was even a basket of toys for the 5 year old. The owner was very accommodating about arrival time and providing a Christmas Tree and decorations, and the cottage was immaculately clean on arrival. It was warm throughout Read morethe Christmas break and couldnt have been more comfortable. A very relaxing cottage. Thank you. Hide
