  • A beautiful Georgian barn conversion
  • Set on an ancient, medieval farmstead
  • Endless walking trails and cycling routes on your doorstep
Property code: 42882

This cottage works really well as either an add on to our gorgeous Medieval & Hay Barns for those who might be looking for a large family celebration, or enjoy as a stand alone cottage and as you settle in to your stay, you'll start to really appreciate how well positioned it is for exploring the Brecon Beacons, as well as the Welsh Borders.

Set on an ancient Medieval farmstead, looking out towards the Black Mountains, there are endless walking trails and cycle rides within easy reach, as well as helpful bike hire companies that will deliver to the door. Those who prefer to paddle on the water will enjoy the close proximity to the River Wye, which ambles past a few fields below, pack a picnic on a summer day and head to the "beaches" outside both Hay and Glasbury for a paddle and spot of duck feeding, or pop up to the River Cafe for a friendly lunch and rent a canoe whilst you're there...or even a Vespa bike for a less energetic way to explore the hills.

When you've run out of energy, then Hay on Wye is your nearest town and a Sugar & Loaf favourite, with famous annual book festival each May and filled with book, antique and independant stores all year round, as well as a generous number of good eateries and pet friendly pubs, it's a great place to be close to.

Part of a restored Georgian stable block, this cottage has been thoughtfully and sensitively converted to maximise privacy and comfort...long gone is the hay and straw! There is a well fenced garden to both the front and the rear of the cottage, with bbq and outdoor furniture available in summer months, and it's perfect for pets all year round....they'll love lazing infront of the wood burning stove!

Step inside and the living space is light and bright, open plan with Shaker style kitchen, breakfast bar and dining table. The large bookshelf hides one of two sofas, facing the wood burning stove (first basket of logs included) and Smart tv and dvd player for lazier days.

Step past the downstairs loo, kitted out with laundry facilities and up the stairs to find the king-size master bedroom, a further twin room and family bathroom can all be found.

The cottage was beautiful inside and out. It was impeccably clean with lots of cleaning products available as well. Each bathroom had an amazing smelling hand-wash from the local shops. There are some beautiful walks nearby with beautiful views. We loved every second of our stay.

Lovely, comfortable cottage. Close to the beautiful town of Hay-on-Wye and the many activities that the Black Mountains, Brecon Beacons, River Wye and the Brecon canal have to offer.
