Blue & Green holiday cottages: The Barn, Presteigne

Set in the beautiful Welsh countryside, The Barn is the ideal place for families to go and explore the natural beauty Wales has to offer. It is available to book now through cottages4you.

Situated in a glorious secluded valley of 35 acres, bordered by woodland rising up to Radnor Forest, this modern spacious detached property offers comfortable holiday accommodation for up to ten people. It is designed and built with oak frames and glass, the building takes advantage of the spectacular views and has a generous kitchen/dining area with a living room on the first floor. A hot tub completes this lovely property.

Within five minutes’ walk of the house lies the village of New Randor, which provides a pub, village stores and post office. The local area offers hill walking, pony trekking, cycling, canoeing and paragliding.

A little further afield lies the pretty town of Hay-on-Wye, famously known for one thing – bookshops – of which there are over 20 in the small town. With its spectacular backdrop of Hay Bluff and the Black Mountains, together with its creaky little streets, riverside parties and travelling fairs, this makes an alternative and enjoyable day out.

Other places of interest that are easily accessible include Ludlow, Presteigne and the spa town of Llanrindid Wells.

Features: The property consists of a large beamed well-equipped modern fitted kitchen/dining room, a double bedroom with patio doors, two twin bedrooms and a wet room on the ground floor. Open tread spiral stairs lead to the first floor, where there is a living room and a further double bedroom, twin bedroom and bathroom.

Sleeps: 10 / Pets: 2 / Bedrooms: 5 / Grade: 5 star
