About this cottage rental
Enjoy a stylish family stay near Hay on Wye and the Brecon Beacons National Park. The pretty town of Hay on Wye, famed for its annual literary festival, is only a short drive away. Surrounded by total quietness with just the sound of nature, birds, and cuckoos to keep you company, into the evening look up to the night sky and find your favourite constellations or stars which look like bright diamonds, if you are really lucky the Aurora Borealis. This gentle spot, nestled on a quiet organic small holding, has been inhabited since the Bronze Age. Steeped in romance and intrigue, with the friendliest of hosts welcoming you to explore the 70 acres, you can uncover ancient springs, medieval paths and tracks directly up into the Black Mountains. After exploring the many wonders in the nearby area, revive by drinking the property’s own spring water. There is an abundance of activities, from walking, cycling and pony trekking within the Brecon Beacons National Park, even lazy days picnicking and paddling on the River Wye. Welcoming watering holes and a strong foodie heritage abound in this inspirational location, including a host of excellent eateries with Michelin starred chefs. Fishing is also available on the nearby Monnow, with day permits available from the award-winning village store in nearby Longtown where you could also stock up with local fayre on the route in, or arrange a welcome pack with the owners - full details and prices are available in the owners' welcome email.
After arriving at the property, guests will be welcomed into the beautiful open-plan lounge, dining, and kitchen area. Bursting with character and charm with a mix of classic artwork by a local artist, the oak beams, stone walls and stone floors. Sink into the comfy sofas and armchairs after a day of exploring and light the warming wood burner, making this a wondrous winter retreat as well as a really special summer getaway. The dining table is also situated in this room, the rustic charm of this area will make every meal a delight. The kitchen boasts a pop of colour and is set to one side of the open-plan room. It is equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, cafetiere and dishwasher. The open tread stairs lead to a snug mezzanine area and is a great chill out room with its day bed, Smart TV, DVD and iPod dock. There are two bedrooms in this beautiful barn, the first is accessed by a few steps up from the living area and is a king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room and WC. The second is super-king size which can be made into twins on request with another en-suite shower room and WC.
Heading outside, there are landscaped topiary and herb gardens to explore as well as two private terrace areas, one with a table, chairs, and BBQ, perfect for alfresco dining on a lazy summer evening. There is also shared garden/lawn space with the adjacent Starlight cottage. Guests are also welcome to discover the owner’s historic grounds and gardens.
For those looking for a place to work from home, and relax when not working, choose Starlight Cottage or Black Hill Barn where the internet connection is super speedy, with a fibre optic connection and speeds of over 350mbps you can rest assured that the Zoom meeting or file transfer will not fail.
