This charming large group accommodation, set within 5 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, offers a unique retreat in the heart of the Wye Valley. Perfect for large group getaways and multi-generational family holidays, the property is ideally located on the east side of the Golden Valley. From the doorstep, explore scenic walking routes such as Merbach Hill and Little Mountain, or venture further afield to the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons National Park. The nearby town of Hay-on-Wye, just 5 miles away, is famed for its literary festival, independent bookshops, and vibrant weekly market. For outdoor enthusiasts, the area offers pony trekking, canoeing on the River Wye, and cycling adventures.


A group of up to 21 adults and 5 children can easily be accommodated between the main 17th-century farmhouse and a detached stable block that has been converted into five guest suites. The farmhouse combines historic charm with modern comforts. The ground floor is perfect for entertaining, featuring a spacious lounge with comfortable sofas, a formal lounge for pre-dinner drinks, and a library-style reception room with a wood burner. The dining room, seating up to 21, is ideal for celebratory meals, while the well-equipped kitchen includes a large oven, induction hob, and two dishwashers to cater for large groups. There is also a utility space with an additional food preparation area and washing machine, plus a wet room with shower and WC on the ground floor. Upstairs, the farmhouse offers four beautifully appointed bedrooms. You’ve got a king-size room enjoying garden views and an en-suite bathroom with bath and separate shower, plus a further two king-size rooms and one double with views across the front gardens. There is also a bathroom with a hand-held shower over a clawfoot bath. The converted stable block provides five additional bedroom suites. There is a four-poster king-size suite with en-suite shower room, while the remaining four open-plan mezzanine suites have en-suite bathrooms with a bath and separate shower. They also have ground-floor lounge areas with sofas and TVs.


Outside, the grounds are designed for relaxation and entertainment. Enjoy al fresco dining with a brick-built BBQ or gather around the fire pit overlooking the Wye Valley. Enjoy the tub either heated with logs for a traditional outdoor hot tub experience, or unheated as a refreshing cold plunge following a woodland walk or sauna-style contrast experience. A redbrick barn features table tennis, darts, and a toybox, while children will love the play area under the willow tree. With ample parking for up to 10 cars, this property is the perfect base for a memorable countryside escape.
