Property code: BN253

A deceptively spacious shepherd hut with wood burner, for couples seeking a rural bolthole in the heart of the Mid-Wales countryside with walks from the doorstep.

Situated in front of the owner’s traditional longhouse, discover wonderful walks straight from the door through woodland and fields, escaping the stresses and strains of modern life. With glorious views across the fields towards the Epynt Mountain and the valley below, sit with a coffee and enjoy breakfast as the sun comes up over the Welsh countryside.

Stylish with patterned soft furnishings and doors to open to the elements on warm evenings, this hut makes for a unique sleeping experience waking to stunning views. Dine at the pull-out table and chairs before curling up in one of the cosy chairs and chatting in front of the flickering flames of the wood burner. Outside, the garden has pretty borders and a patio, perfect for morning coffee or an evening BBQ, taking a moment to stargaze on a clear night. Dine alfresco on your private balcony, spotting wildlife as you sip morning coffee. Sizzle up a BBQ and roast marshmallows over the fire pit in the evenings under starry skies.

The village of Cilmery (2.5 miles) has a well-regarded traditional inn and there is a request-stop train station for the Heart of Wales Railway Line. Shops and a choice of cafes and restaurants can be found at pretty Builth Wells (6 miles) where you can ramble along the River Wye. Outdoor Active Life (13 miles) offers gorge walking, kayaking, canoeing, and rock climbing – ideal for thrill seekers, while the Elan Valley (8 miles) offers relaxed walks and picturesque picnic spots. Spend an afternoon perusing the independent shops and eateries in the popular town of Brecon (20 miles) while in Hay-on-Wye (3 miles) discover boutique clothes shops, antique dealers, pubs and restaurants, and books shops galore.

The hut was equipped with everything you could need and the use of the limited space available was incredible. The views from the decking were amazing and the birds on the bird feeders magic.

With its high standards throughout, I would thoroughly recommend to anyone wanting to get away from it all. The hut has everything you need, its location is the perfect base to explore mid Wales or just kick back, relax and enjoy the tranquility with just the sounds of nature for company.

Such a wonderful place to stay. Rose and Dean made us feel so welcome. The Shepherd Hut was beautiful, warm, and cosy despite the sub-zero temperatures outside! Incredible views, great amenities, just wished we had booked to stay longer. We hope to return!

A lovely remote and peaceful location where you can enjoy listening and watching the birds. We enjoyed a lovely evening stargazing around the fire pit. We really enjoyed our stay.
