Gather your favourite people and escape to this welcoming countryside retreat, ideal for families and groups of friends looking to reconnect and unwind in the heart of the Wye Valley. With miles of scenic walks straight from the doorstep - including access to the stunning 136-mile Wye Valley Walk - and just 6 miles from the literary town of Hay-on-Wye, this is a place where memories are made.
Whether you're planning a family reunion, a group getaway, or a relaxed celebration, this converted barn offers the perfect base. The spacious lounge/diner, full of rustic charm with exposed beams and traditional stonework, is made for spending time together - think lazy breakfasts, board games by the fire, and big dinners at the farmhouse-style table. The views towards the Black Mountains aren’t bad either!
The modern kitchen is fully equipped for group catering, with an electric oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer and washer/dryer. With five bedrooms - two doubles and three twins - each with their own en-suite shower room, there’s plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy their own privacy. One of the double bedrooms is conveniently located on the ground floor with its own en-suite, ideal for multi-generational stays.
Outside, there’s a large BBQ area and picnic area with glorious countryside views, and a safe, grassy play area for children to run wild. There’s even room for your four-legged friend - one well-behaved dog is welcome to join the fun.
Hay-on-Wye, just 6 miles away, is bursting with charm and character. Famous for its world-renowned literary festival, it’s also home to cosy cafés, independent bookshops, a cinema, and a lively arts scene. You’ll also find plenty of nearby pubs and eateries in Glasbury and Llyswen (both 2 miles), or take a day trip to Brecon (11 miles) for more local culture and countryside.
If you're travelling as a larger group, this property can be booked with the adjoining barn conversion to sleep up to 16 guests, with an interconnecting door that keeps things flexible.
