Romantic rural hideaway

Sitting at the end of a traditional Welsh longhouse, “y beudy” (the cow byre) is a country lover's delight. The sitting room/kitchen is full of character and charm while the cosy bedroom upstairs nestles under the roof with exposed beams, accessed through the garden room. The tastefully refurbished toilet and shower room is conveniently situated on the ground floor through from the living room. Guests can also relax in the garden room with it's log burning stove.
Up to two extra guests can also be accommodated on the futon in the sitting room for an additional £14 per guest per night.
A welcome basket will always contain coffee, tea, sugar & milk, plus seasonal items if available such as homemade jam, our own apple juice, eggs from our girls or homemade bread. We also provide the store cupboard basics eg. salt & pepper, cooking oil, red & brown sauces, washing up liquid.
Although not with exclusive use, guests are welcome to sit in the garden. We are a smallholding so expect to see hens pecking about, Lucy the horse looking over the wall, the dogs of course, or pigs and sheep in the fields next door.
Our bottom gate leads out onto rugged hillside, where you can walk for miles.
We sit above the beautiful river Wye, and canoeing is available from the world famous Hay-on-Wye (11 miles away). Horse riding can also be booked (8 miles away).
The Brecon Beacons, Black Mountains, Elan Valley and Cambrian Mountains are all within easy reach.
Or perhaps enjoy a visit to nearby Builth Wells or Brecon for lunch or a browse around the shops.
Note: please read all information regarding pets.

Wonderful 3 days
We had a lovely stay at Jackie and Paul's cottage. They were very welcoming and warm. We had complimentary free range eggs and biscuits, milk, tea and coffee available. The kitchen was fully equipped, we made full use of it. The bed was comfortable and my daughter loved the attic room. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Reading in lovely cottage and walking in beautiful countryside, what else do you need!
We had a lovely bank holiday weekend at the cottage. The walk out over the hills behind the cottage were a highlight. The garden room is so light and comfortable, sat reading a book, listening to the birds. Great for a quiet, away from it all weekend. Jackie was really helpful and welcoming.
