Property code: 89523

A truly rural location set amongst the foothills of the Black Mountains, this open-plan cabin is simply perfect for couples that want to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Craswall is situated on the Herefordshire/Wales border, within the Black Mountains on the eastern edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park. It is just 4 miles away from the vibrant market town of Hay-on-Wye, set on the scenic River Wye. Here, you can leave the car behind and explore the Black Mountains, ramble up to the Cat’s Back, or join the Offa’s Dyke Path where you can take a hike out to Hay Bluff and Twmpa, or wander through the ruins of Llanthony Priory. There is also canoeing, pony trekking, and climbing available within the park.

Enjoy the views as you climb up across the farmland towards the cabin that backs onto acres of mature woodland. The cabin is delightfully modest, yet well-equipped, offering contemporary open-plan living with glorious views across the valley. The living space is comprised of a lounge area with a comfortable sofa and TV, and a small kitchen area for cooking up a simple supper to enjoy while admiring the beautiful view. Completing the interior is a cosy double bed, and a shower room.

Open up the patio doors from the living area and step out onto the raised terrace, where you can dine alfresco at the table, looking out over the 300 acres of wood and farmland that you are free to explore. There is allocated parking for one car in the farmyard, where you can load up the wheelbarrow provided to transport your luggage along the 100-metre path to the cabin.

The place is spot on. A point about the location, when going up the narrow road you get to a fork in the road, make sure you take the left narrow track to Craswall. It is a narrow track with passing places. As regards the Cabin, I wish we had one of these for ourselves, think that says it all.

Lovely cabin in a great location. All roads out are single track so narrow lanes. The hill to the cabins are quite steep so not for everyone. Beautiful views and walks and it stayed dry. A little problem with parking when I first arrived but otherwise a lovely place to stay

The location is fabulous, well off the beaten track and good to be able to switch off chill out. Plenty of hot water, a decent shower and relevant equipment in the kitchen.
