The Hayloft
The Hayloft is a Grade II listed property tucked away in the corner of a handsome Georgian farmhouse courtyard. You are welcomed into this luxury cottage by time-worn flagstones and a double height gallery hallway with two ground floor bedrooms leading off, both with double aspect windows - one with twin beds and one with a king sized bed. These two ground floor bedrooms each have beamed ceilings, refined furnishings, shining wooden floors and share a shower room. The twin has a large glazed window looking onto a secluded courtyard - dappled shade beckons through the sparkling windows inviting you to explore the pristine grounds beyond. A terrace for the exclusive use of The Hayloft guests is tucked away in the garden and there is a recreation area with shared ’ping pong’ table. The shared gardens are very well maintained and contain a diverse array of trees and plants, making this an ideal spot to wander and gaze at the stars in this quiet corner of Wales. An ideal location for walkers and festival goers. The village of Glasbury is a mile away and the cottage is just 5 miles from Hay on Wye. There is also an outside tap for washing dog paws.
There is a beautiful double aspect living dining kitchen area with views across the gardens to one side and over the listed cobbled courtyard to the other. A record player with a collection of old vinyl and blue tooth speakers makes for a great evening relaxing around the wood burner on the 3 large sofas. A dining table to seat 8 and a spacious kitchen area all make for a great entertaining space.
Accessed via a further set of stairs the two upstairs bedrooms are very peaceful are adorned with luxury bed linen and glorious oak beams. Bedroom 3 has a full-length window with a Juliette balcony and views across the grounds to fields beyond.
Guests can look forward to a small hamper of goodies, fresh flowers, and a jar of fresh herbs from the garden when available. Deck chairs are available to set up wherever you please in the gardens as well as boules and quoits to play at your leisure. There is an outdoor tap for muddy dogs and lockable secure bike storage. Free charcoal is available for the BBQ, and there are lots of maps and guides on local walks and cycling routes.
Just a short trip takes you to Hay-on Wye, a fantastic diverse market town. Ideal for stocking up on deli items and great for browsing. The ’Town of Books’ is fascinating, there are the famous second-hand bookshops, designer boutiques, a butter market with local produce, antique dealers, retailer’s catering for crafts and interiors, there is even a chandelier shop which is truly charming. The cinema and theatre is a venue which hosts a variety of eclectic artists and theatrical performances throughout the year. The choice of cafes and restaurants will leave you needing to return time and again. Don’t miss the ice cream parlour, which sells not only delicious ice cream but great coffee and deserts. The local gastropub has an excellent reputation while the recently reopened Hay Castle is a must visit, for the history, views over the town, and its great cafe.
