Cottage In Mid Wales, Hay-On-Wye

Herefordshire. Sleeps up to 6

Hay on Wye is famously known all over the world as the Town of Books . Boasting over twenty bookstores to browse, Hay is most popular during the annual Hay Festival during the last few weeks of May. The town also features a plethora of independent shops including art galleries, vintage shops, coffee shops, bakeries, vegetable shops, cosy pubs and much more. Once you've had your coffee and mooched through the bookstores, there's a range of outdoor activities in the area to fill your afternoons. You can walk to the River Wye from the cottage, which offers a pebble stone bank to wild swim in or relax by with a picnic. For the more adventurous types, there's kayaking, cycle routes, hikes, and activity centres aplenty. Set peacefully within the grounds of the owner s home this former apple store has been lovingly restored by the present owners.

From the hallway you can access the dining area, finished with a large table and chairs with low lighting, and from here you can step down into the lounge, where a wood burner for chilly evenings awaits, along with a TV. The conservatory is next, a place where you can enjoy the warmth of the sun and get lost in a good book. You can also take advantage of the indoor herb garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is accessed from the hallway and is a great space and well equipped for the chefs of the group. This includes an electric oven and large gas hob, microwave, two fridges and a freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, as well as a breakfast bar with stools.
