About this property
Enjoy a relaxing stay at Sheephouse Cottage, a comfortable red-brick country cottage in a peaceful setting just 1.5 miles from the vibrant market town of Hay-on-Wye. Ideally placed for exploring the Welsh Borders and Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, it offers the best of both worlds – a quiet base to return to after a day out, while the cafés, restaurants, independent shops and famous bookshops of Hay are just a short drive away. Hay-on-Wye is renowned for its literary heritage and lively arts scene, but there's plenty to discover beyond its bookshops. Spend the day browsing local shops and the weekly farmers' market, enjoy a riverside walk and picnic at The Warren, or take to the River Wye by canoe. Walkers and cyclists are particularly well catered for, with Hay Bluff, Offa's Dyke Path and the spectacular surrounding countryside providing plenty of opportunities to get out and explore.
After a day of adventures, this stylish Cottage provides a welcoming space to relax. Enter via the rear of the property into a spacious boot room, with plenty of room for outdoor footwear and equipment and a convenient downstairs shower room – particularly handy after a muddy country walk. From here, step into the heart of the cottage: a stylish open-plan living space designed for spending time together. The well-equipped contemporary kitchen has everything you need for a comfortable self-catering stay, while the breakfast bar, with seating for five, provides an informal spot for breakfast, a coffee or a relaxed meal. The adjoining lounge offers comfortable seating and a Smart TV, creating a cosy place to unwind at the end of the day. On cooler evenings, light the wood burner, settle in and enjoy the warmth of the fire after exploring the surrounding countryside. Upstairs, there are three comfortable bedrooms: a king-size bedroom, a double bedroom and a single bedroom. Together they provide flexible accommodation for families or small groups of friends, with a family bathroom featuring a bath with shower over and WC completing the first floor.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden offers another lovely place to relax. The spacious patio has a table and chairs for outdoor dining, whether you're enjoying a leisurely breakfast before heading out, a relaxed lunch in the sunshine or a drink together on a warm summer evening.
