This sweet and stylish barn sits less than a mile outside ‘Book Town’. Explore the literary haunts of Hay-on-Wye and get inspired with a walk through the Brecon Beacons National Park.
Make a romantic retreat to this enticing barn apartment nestled in countryside just outside Hay-on-Wye. Sleeping just two guests, the one-bedroom, stone retreat is right on the border of Wales and England and makes a perfect base for exploring the beautiful borderlands, as well as Bannau Brycheiniog, also known as Brecon Beacons National Park, and the famous book town of Hay itself. It comes with a private terrace for basking in the sunshine on summer days and a wood burner for cosy winter evenings in.
Let yourselves into the inviting bolthole, which sits on the ground floor of the barn. Enjoy features, such as exposed stonework and timbers, as well the attractive finish through the likes of flagstone floors. At the heart of the apartment is the lounge, where you can soak up the heat of the wood burner on chilly days or open the French doors on to the patio during the summer months. Watch TV, chat and make your plans in here for the following day. Head through to the kitchen/diner to whip up romantic meals for two then set the table and open a bottle of wine before you sit down to eat. At the end of each lovely day away together, amble through to your king-size bedroom for a sumptuous night’s sleep. Wake up to enjoy the views out across the countryside before taking a refreshing shower. Have breakfast and morning coffee out on the patio and cook supper on the BBQ out here too on occasion.
Explore the many bookshops and galleries of Hay, 1 mile away, and dine out here too. Go canoeing on the picturesque River Wye and follow a section of long-distance footpath Offa’s Dyke. Head into the national park to find other trails to follow and Welsh beauty spots to visit.
