Cosy, smart self-contained stone cottage, 1000 feet up

A cosy self-contained stone cottage on the south-facing slope of a peaceful green valley below Cefn Llwydallt. We're 1000 feet up and the views are brilliant! The Barn Annexe has a remote and "get away from it all" feeling, but is just three miles from the main A470 road, and a short drive from Hay-on-Wye, Brecon, Builth Wells, and the Brecon Beacons National Park.

The Barn Annexe is perfect for a self-catering stay. Private parking for one or two cars is right by the front door. Downstairs is open plan, with spacious kitchen, dining and lounge areas, and a toilet; upstairs there are two bedrooms and a bathroom with shower and toilet. There's wifi throughout, a picnic table outside, and a grassy lawn leading down to a stream. Have a wander: you are welcome. And there are great walks, literally from the front door!

More information
• Recently converted from a former double garage, the Barn Annexe is roomy, smart, clean and comfortable. And deliberately uncluttered, but with all the essentials for a comfy stay.
• The front door looks out onto green fields with a great view up the beautiful Sgethwin valley. Above us is the common land of Cefn Llwydallt. To the south, Hay Bluff and the rest of the Brecon Beacons are our backdrop.
• It's quiet! Fall asleep to the sounds of sheep and the breeze in the trees.
• There are lots of fine walks, nearby or just a short drive away, along the River Wye and in the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons.
• Night-time skies are dark (bring your telescope!)
• It's a good place for bird watchers: crossbill, pipits, wheatear, kites, buzzards...
• Sorry, but we can’t accept dogs (we have cats, and there are sheep nearby).
• Please note that this is a rural location, with access via single-track roads and a track.

Interaction with guests
The Barn where we (Jo and Dave) live is nearby, but not too close. We won’t be in your face! We'll do our best to help you enjoy your stay in our beautiful valley.
