Whether you enjoy walking, woofing or wagging your tail, this delightful barn is a welcoming place to call home. The winding River Wye flows nearby; the perfect spot for a swim, splash and stroll before unwinding in style back at the ranch. Explore the awe-inspiring surrounding countryside, including the Brecon Beacons and Pen y Fan, and work up an appetite for a tasty treat or two which can be rustled up in the barn’s lovely kitchen.

Great for keeping an eye on your cheeky canine chums, the open-plan living style of the barn is practical yet sophisticated. Treat yourself to a quiet moment in front of the wood burner or enjoy a relaxing soak in the bath where muddy paws can also be rinsed off in the shower overhead. With towels provided and welcome nibbles on arrival, you should have everything you need for a special break away from your everyday routine. Rest sleepy heads in the stylish upstairs bedrooms, both of which feature exposed beams, before waking up and heading outside to savour a morning coffee. The front and back gardens are enclosed for the safety of your four-legged friends, with direct access to the back garden from the downstairs living space; throw open the doors and let the light flood in.

17 miles from the market town of Brecon, fill up on a hearty meal before wandering the nearby Brecon Beacons National Park and taking in the astounding beauty. If you fancy a challenge, climb the tallest peak in South Wales, Pen y Fan, and conquer the dog-friendly hike which is 886m above sea level. For a spot of fun closer to home, roam the quaint streets of Hay-on-Wye just 2 miles from your door.

The cottage was beautiful inside and out. It was impeccably clean with lots of cleaning products available as well. Each bathroom had an amazing smelling hand-wash from the local shops. There are some beautiful walks nearby with beautiful views. We loved every second of our stay.

Lovely, comfortable cottage. Close to the beautiful town of Hay-on-Wye and the many activities that the Black Mountains, Brecon Beacons, River Wye and the Brecon canal have to offer.
