Idyllic 17th Century Farmhouse with Glorious Mountain Views

Dating back to the 17th century, Hatterrall Farmhouse remains home to original exposed beams, cosy woodburners, oak floorboards, and traditional flagstones. The house showcases a wealth of character and charm, inspired by the natural materials and textures found nearby. The farmhouse boasts incredible views from all aspects, with the best seen from the spacious garden.

This spacious home is the perfect bolthole from which to explore the Brecon Beacons National Park, walk the Offa's Dyke path, wander around the quaint market towns of Abergavenny, Hay-on-Wye, and Crickhowell, or explore Herefordshire's most famous sights, including Hereford Cathedral.

INSIDE

Step in through the oak front door onto the flagstones into the cosy dining room, with statement red brick fireplace, piano, and long oak table with seating for 8, perfect for evening's spent entertaining. The dining room leads off to a spacious living room with oak beams, a unique stone fireplace and log burner, a 55" smart TV, and comfortable seating for 8.

Off the central hallway there is a warm and inviting snug, perfect for reading in front of the fire, playing board games with the family, or enjoying a DVD. The hallway also leads to the heart of the home, the spacious, open-plan kitchen diner. The kitchen includes a Belling range cooker with electric hob, built-in under-the-counter fridge, dishwasher and the usual kitchen mod-cons, including a Nespresso coffee machine. The kitchen leads around to a further reception area, the hand-crafted oak frame sunroom - relax on the comfortable sofas waiting for your tea to brew as the low morning sun streams across the oak floorboards.

The utility room offers further space, with a larder cupboard, an area perfect for making cocktails, a freestanding fridge-freezer, washing machine, and tumble dryer. Head through the quirky wooden door to the back off the house, where you’ll find a traditional boot room, perfect for storing your coats and wellies after a walk.

Upstairs you’ll find four idyllic bedrooms; the master, with king-size bed and en-suite shower room, a second spacious room with king-size bed and en-suite shower room, a third room with another king-size bed, and a final bedroom with a zip-link king bed which can be made into two narrow (75cm wide) single beds upon request, perfect for children and young adults. In-between the third and fourth bedrooms is a family bathroom with bath and bidet. Downstairs there is a further shower room.

OUTSIDE

Open the patio doors leading off the living room and enter into the oak-framed pavilion, the perfect location for both a summer supper and a winter coffee.

Pretty gardens sprawl around Hatterrall Farmhouse, where a trickling fish pond offers opportunity for a peaceful moment. It's the unique oak-framed gazebo that sits at the end of the lavender-lined path that really steals the show however - it's the perfect place to sit back and enjoy a morning coffee, admiring the views of the rugged Black Mountains that tower behind.

If one wishes to roam, a short walk through the fields leads to Hatterrall Hill, where breathtaking mountain views await. Alternatively, if you’d prefer to connect with people other than nature, a 20 minute ramble through country lanes and over stiles leads to the small hamlet of Clodock, home to an unspoilt traditional pub of great character.

Our nearby village of Longtown (7 minute drive) is home to a fantastic village shop (Hopes of Longtown), and food pub (The Crown Inn). There are many other nearby country inns if you wish to dine out. The market town of Abergavenny is 7 miles away, and the popular Town of Books, Hay-on-Wye, is 9 miles away.
