Retaining all its former character, with cruck oak beams and exposed stonework, Hay Bluff House is the perfect hideaway, with acres of gardens and fields, as well as a private waterfall.
Set just beneath Lord Hereford's Knob and Hay Bluff, in the Black Mountains (part of the Brecon Beacons National Park) you can stride, pedal or ride out across some of the country's most beautiful terrain, right from the doorstep. Either enjoy the wonderful seclusion, or try one of the many activities available to try including rock climbing, abseiling, gorge walking, rafting, archery, caving and Tregoyd riding stables and outdoor activity centre which is just at the foot of the mountain lane, with great trails across the hills to explore on. Not forgetting Wye Valley with its canoeing, shooting, river and lake fishing, which is near Hay on Wye, home of the famous Hay Festival, with 30 bookshops, cafes and shops.
