Sleeping 10, the Lake House is the perfect home for getting away with family and friends.

Location

Nestled in the foothills of the Brecon Beacons National Park, the house is reached via winding country lanes and a private tree lined drive. You are surrounded by a mature garden, farmland and woodland. To the north you have views over the lake and to the south the Black Mountains. If you choose to leave the peace of the house, you are five minutes drive from a canoe down the River Wye or a hike up Lord Hereford Knob. Less than four miles from the house is the thriving book town of Hay on Wye, with its independent shops, cafes, galleries, deli, art house cinema and year round events.
