This charming stone-built holiday cottage makes a lovely holiday base for a family visiting the idyllic town of Hay-on-Wye and is within easy reach of the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park.
Sitting in the bustling literary town of Hay-on-Wye, this welcoming cottage boasts character and charm and is perfect for families looking to explore the Brecon Beacons. Ideally located to visit the local restaurants, bookshops and well-trodden trails such as the Offa’s Dyke Path and Wye Valley Walk, you don’t have to hop in the car to enjoy days out and about.
Though it was built in the 1980s, this cottage was constructed using the old stone and timbers which characterise the older cottages in town, creating a traditional feel throughout. Make your way into the light lounge where you can choose your seat and put your feet up after days spent out and about. Pop the kettle on or cook up a storm in the beautiful, spacious kitchen where there is plenty of space to store delicious local groceries and prepare a feast. Serve up at the table or head outside to dine alfresco and enjoy the blossoming flora and fresh air; for an easy summer meal, fire up the BBQ whilst children play in the garden. Leave muddy boots in the ground-floor utility room before heading upstairs to freshen up in the family bathroom where you can soak in the tub or take a shower. Also on the first floor are two double bedrooms whilst the twin room, with sloping ceilings, can be reached by climbing a further flight of stairs.
For a fun, family day out, travel 12 miles to the Small Breeds Farm Park and Owl Centre or 13 miles to Llangorse Lake (the largest natural lake in South Wales), where you can find activity centres and take a stroll. Closer to home, The Warren, where you can find a park and shingle beach, lies less than a mile from your door and is a great picnic spot.
