There’s no need to compromise on style and comfort with this beautifully renovated former mill fit for family getaways with four-legged friends. Sleeping seven, it is cosy and welcoming for all with two warming wood burners, a large Rayburn oven, handy utility room and original flagstone floors with underfloor heating – perfect for warming toes and paws! Spend your days exploring the Black Mountains with your canine companions or browsing the independent shops and eateries of Hay-on-Wye (1 mile) before returning for an al fresco meal in the private enclosed garden.

 

Offering a seamless blend of old and new exposed beams and a stone fireplace combined with stylish modern bathrooms, four elegantly decorated bedrooms and open-plan accommodation that’s great for families. After walkies, the separate utility room is a great space for drying muddy paws before you get ready for dinner. Cook up a storm in the shaker-style kitchen before dining together at the farmhouse table, while exhausted dogs doze happily beside one of the two roaring wood burners. With inviting sofas and a selection of games to choose from, the lounge is a cosy space for relaxing with the whole family. Outside, a sunny enclosed patio area is ideal for a quiet coffee in the morning, while the pretty rear garden is great for games with the dogs.

 

Sitting beside the Dulas Brook, which rises up above Hay-on-Wye in the Black Mountains, this area is a haven for walkers on both two and four legs. Take the dogs for a paddle at the Warren, or head to the Brecon Beacons National Park to explore its magnificent landscape of mountains, valleys, rivers and waterfalls. Try your hand at fishing, shooting or canoeing in the beautiful Wye Valley or discover this area’s fascinating history as you visit Hergest Croft Gardens (13.5 miles), Croft Castle (28 miles) or Berrington Hall (28.5 miles).

The cottage was comfortable and roomy and had everything needed for what could have been a perfect holiday. Unfortunately there were roadworks on the road that reached the cottage which meant no access for cars for most of the day. The only other access by the diversion was completely unsuitable for cars in our opinion so we were unable to explore Read morethe wider area as much as we would have liked, instead we walked only in the local area. Response from HolidayCottages.co.uk ~ Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you found the cottage comfortable and well-equipped. We are sorry your stay was affected by unexpected local roadworks, which were unfortunately outside of our control. We have been advised that these works are now completed. We do hope you were still able to enjoy the cottage and the local area. Hide

We celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary at Cusop Mill Cottage with our family - a total of six adults, one child, two babies and two dogs. The accommodation was more than adequate - plenty of space both inside and out. The cottage was well equipped and beautifully furnished.

6 of us, and 1 dog, stayed at the old mill for our yearly friends get together. We had a fabulous time, the facilities suited our needs and was perfectly situated for walkers of all levels, as well as being an easy picturesque walk to the town centre for shopping, eating and drinking - so no concerns about having to drive. Compared to other dog friRead moreendly places, we have stayed, there was not a plethora of do's and don'ts which added to us being able to relax and enjoy our stay. Hide

A perfect little cottage for our family stay. Very traditional and characterful but beautifully decorated and clean. Walking distance to Hay but also lots of countryside walks from the doorstep. So many waterfalls. Wish we had a longer stay so may well book again. Very friendly owners on the Mill House next door.

Lovely cosy home with a lot of character. EXACTLY the right walking distance from Hay, along a nice easy part of Offa's Dyke path. You might need to light the lounge fire at this time of year.
