A beautiful house, in a fantastic location. Great walks from the doorstep and only a few minutes drive from the fabulous town of Hay-on-Wye. Although a party of 15 we never once felt over crowded. There is plenty of space within the living areas to have some quiet time. Very well equipped throughout, and our children loved the games room.

A perfect house for our annual family get together, ages ranging from 12 to 76!

This is a beautiful house in a great location. We were a party of 14 adults and 3 dogs - we had plenty of room to spread out but also to come together for meals, relaxing and having fun. The garden is secure for the dogs to exercise which is a huge bonus. The practical extras provided make self catering so much easier.
