Nestled in the heart of Hay-on-Wye, a charming literary town known for its bookshops and rustic allure, this characterful cottage captures the essence of idyllic countryside living. This is the ultimate rural retreat ideal for couples and families who love nothing better than exploring the great outdoors.

Boasting a seamless fusion of old-world charm with extra special homely touches, the cosy lounge exudes warmth and character; the roaring wood burner, exposed stonework and ceiling beams set the scene for pure relaxation. Featuring custom-made cabinetry that echoes the rustic aesthetic of the cottage, the bespoke kitchen offers a harmonious blend of functionality and beauty, inspiring you to rustle up something delicious. Stylish and sophisticated, the ground floor family bathroom offers everything you need to kick start a day's adventure or soothe weary walking muscles at the end of a busy day of exploring. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms, one super-king-size and one double, that both feature the same charm and character as the ground floor. From sunrise to sunset, the enclosed courtyard is an oasis of calm; enjoy dining alfresco or star gazing way past bedtime.

Renowned as the ‘Book Capital of the World', the historic town of Hay-on-Wye boasts not only a plethora of independent new and second-hand book shops but ancient castle ruins, a weekly farmers market and access to wonderful walks including Offa's Dyke at the foot of the Black Mountains and the Wye Valley Walk. While away a fine afternoon skimming stones across the gentle rapids of the river beach The Warren a mile away or hire a canoe from Hay-on-Wye to explore the River Wye from its best watery angle. Keen walkers can climb Hay Bluff and Tympa to be rewarded with breathtaking scenery and glimpses of a variety of wildlife.
