  • A charming half timbered Grade II listed 16C cottage with stunning views across the countryside
  • Within walking distance of the River Wye and market town of Hay on Wye
  • Enjoying a private location with immediate access onto the Offa’s Dyke footpath
Property code: OC-78078

Sitting in the peaceful hamlet of Bronydd, fill your lungs with fresh air as you escape to the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Perfectly suited for lovers of the great outdoors, bring your tufty-pawed companion along to join in the fun as you explore your surroundings. Adventure by day and settle down by the cosy wood burner in the evenings with a good book in hand.

 

Brimming with character and creature comforts, including an AGA, make yourselves right at home at this delightful property. Throw off muddy boots and towel down soggy fur in the boot room, perfect for post-adventure clean ups. Bright colours bring the lounge/diner to life and the wood burner promises to keep tummies and toes warm throughout your stay. Pluck a book from the shelf or switch on the TV to rejuvenate and refresh before tomorrow’s adventure. Having cooked up tasty treats on the AGA in the spacious kitchen area, plate up at the dining table where four guests can sit comfortably, and raise a toast to time spent together. As eyes get heavy, climb stairs to the first floor where you can find the two charming bedrooms, decorated in tranquil tones so you wake feeling relaxed. Outside, plenty of spaces welcome all guests to stretch their legs and wander down to the babbling brook. Take care with the different levels and steps both inside and out. Please note dogs will need to be supervised in the garden, are not allowed upstairs and not left unattended in the property at any time.

 

Just 3 miles from the vibrant market town of Hay-on-Wye, famed for its literary history, head out for the day and pop into the quirky independent bookshops and eateries. Closer to home, hop on the Offa’s Dyke Path and admire the views with every twist and turn. Make the 27-mile trip to Pen-y-Fan, the highest peak in South Wales, and summit the peak which sits 886m above sea level.

Chapel Cottage is just outside Hay on Wye and is in the most peaceful setting while still being close to the town. The cottage was comfortable and clean and had lovely views over the valley from the garden. You start to relax once you walk through the door.

Chapel Cottage is the epitome of the idyllic Christmas experience. Warm, cosy, and beautifully decorated for the season. The well equipped kitchen is absolutely up to the mammoth task of cooking Christmas dinner - we made good use of both the conventional and Aga ovens. A very memorable holiday. Highly recommended.

The cottage was full of character, cosy, well presented and had everything you could want when self-catering. When we arrived the Christmas tree was lit and decs were out which was really welcoming. This property is perfect for anyone with a dog having an enclosed garden, plus boot/drying room. Hay-on-Wye is only a short drive away.

Absolutely beautiful place both inside and out with excellent views. Lovely owner who was really nice and helpful. Have not revisited anywhere in many years but this may be the exception. A true olde world cottage with a beautiful garden and views and a really homely interior finished in a traditional cottage style but with class.
