Lane Farm Barn

This characterful stone cottage is set within the grounds of a working farm and offers spacious accommodation for groups of both families and friends that are keen to explore the breathtaking scenery and numerous local activities. Situated a mile outside the peaceful Painscastle village with its traditional village inn, this property sits just above the Begwns (3 miles) – 580 acres of National Trust hills and rolling landscape with enviable views across the Brecon Beacon National Park. For the thrill-seekers, the Brecon Beacons (7 miles) and River Wye have several adventure training providers, including renting a canoe, high-rope courses, and gorge walking. Hay-on-Wye (6 miles) is famous for its International Book Festival and is home to an arthouse cinema, The Globe at Hay, and a number of second-hand bookshops and independent shops.

Enjoy views across the valley as you arrive on the farm, before accessing the retreat via the French doors into an inviting lobby. Leave your boots at the door and step into the hub of the cottage; a spacious kitchen/diner that’s perfectly set up for entertaining, with an open-plan kitchen, warming wood burner and a generously sized dining table which can accommodate up to eight guests, backed by valley views. To the rear of the barn, a small set of steps gives access to a shower room, a double bedroom, and a spacious twin-bedded room with a daybed for additional relaxation space. This twin room can also be made into a king-bed on request and boasts an en-suite bath with a handheld shower. Upstairs, guests can relax in the lounge in one of the cosy sofa's in front of the TV or tuck themselves away in the small nook area that’s perfect for board games and devouring a good book. A double bedroom and a twin room with vanity sink complete this floor, as well as a bathroom with shower over bath.

Outside, guests can cook up a storm on the BBQ and enjoy a spot of al fresco dining around the outdoor dining table and chairs. The garden also offers access to the surrounding woodland and countryside.
