Feast your eyes on spectacular views and escape to a fairy tale bolthole where contemporary meets country to create a truly gorgeous ambience. Bursting with charm and flooded with natural light from the bi-fold doors, this home is the perfect destination for reuniting with family and friends. Sitting just north of the Brecon Beacons National Park, enjoy the serenity of your hilltop position whilst knowing that peaks, lakes and bustling villages are close to home.

 

Exposed beams, brickwork and neutral hues dapple this beautiful home where you’ll find it easy to relax. Fill the kitchen/diner- the heart of the home- with laughter and delicious aromas as you rustle up a feast or keep your chef company and lend a hand with chopping ingredients at the island. If a chill whips through the air, fire up the wood burner in the stylish lounge where you’ll find plenty of sumptuous sofa space and a Smart TV for cosy film nights. The magic continues outside where the enclosed garden is surrounded by verdant countryside and the hot tub bubbles away enticing you in for a soak. Say good night and drift off in one of five first-floor bedrooms which are peaceful and tranquil so you can enjoy a good night’s sleep.

 

Roam the vibrant streets of Hay-on-Wye (7.5 miles) which are alive with bookshops and eateries and bask in the dynamic atmosphere of this literary hub. Sitting on the tip of the Brecon Beacons National Park, Hay-on-Wye is a great pitstop on your way to the largest natural lake in South Wales, Llangorse (17.5 miles), where you can enjoy a waterside wander or visit the activity centre. Closer to home, explore the National Trust’s Begwyns (3.5 miles) - 580 acres of rolling landscapes with breathtaking views.
