Country property In Rural Herefordshire / Powys border near Hay on Wye

Meadow End Barn sleeps 12 in 6 bedrooms (the sixth bedroom is open to the sitting room up a spiral staircase on mezzanine), peaceful village location, 6 miles from Hay on Wye. Lovely stone property with huge sitting room great for large parties set in courtyard with private parking and walled garden.

Up to date interiors with 6 bedrooms (4 on the ground floor) and a 6th open plan bedroom set on a mezzanine. 5 shower or bathrooms, three ensuite. All with underfloor heating. Filled with creature comforts and very well equipped kitchen. 2 dogs welcome. Walking distance to the village pub. Great walking area with Black mountains and Brecon Beacons to hand.

A note about accessibility…. unfortunately the house isn’t really suitable for wheelchair users because the kitchen and living space is upstairs. There is an exposed cobbled landing (uneven) leading to the bedrooms on the ground floor. We don’t supply baby gates and there is an open landing which has bannisters but there is a drop to the floor below.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 6 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, an electric kettle, and an ironing board.

An ideal place to stay, we did so for a 60th birthdays celebration. Accommodated all 12 adults in comfort, allowing us to have a celebratory meal and drinks. Trips to nearby Hay and the Arthur’s Stone ridge by the property. An excellent weekend, thank you Coralie.

Exceptional stay

Exceeded all expectations. The property is beautiful, cosy, and perfectly set up for large groups. More bathrooms/ensuites than you can count, comfy linen, stocked kitchen, and a table big enough for all guests to enjoy dinner together. Extra callout to the extremely comfy chairs around the log fire, perfect for a quiet weekend of reading. Coralie is an exceptional host, responsive, informative, and friendly. If the place is available for your dates, stop reading and book. It is wonderful. We will definitely be back.

Fantastic converted barn

Coralie was a great host. The building is lovely, great communal area and sociable kitchen space. Beds were very comfy. The oven is slower which wasn’t listed till we got a welcome pdf so Christmas was a lot slower- but certainly wouldn’t stop us going again. There were plenty of showers and loos. Coralie left a few decorations up which was appreciated .the house had everything we needed- an abundance of cookware/plates and mugs..

Charming converted barn close to Hay-on-Wye

The barn has so much character and charm and nearly all the rooms have their own bathrooms which were well appointed. Lovely views of the surrounding countryside from the upper level where the kitchen and living room were located. The kitchen was very well equipped for a large family who self-catered as we did. Plenty of room In the living and dining areas for my family if 10. A couple of negative points: The dryer was not efficient at all and then we discovered it was badly in need of a lint clean which seemingly had not been done for a very long time. People in the master bedroom and twin room downstairs said the beds were not very comfortable. We very much enjoyed our stay there.

Fabulous weekend, in a fabulous property!

We were a group of 10 friends and one dog, who spent a great weekend in this property and couldn’t recommend it highly enough. It was very comfortable, homely and well equipped. As a group we have stayed in quite a few properties throughout the UK, but we all agreed this was probably the best to date. The sociable layout was perfect and the bedrooms very comfortable. Coralie, the owner provided us with useful information up front and communicated with us really well. Location wise it was perfect for visiting the lovely Hay on Wye and the fantastic Pandy Inn was in walking distance where we had a great Sunday lunch. If you’re looking for a place to stay you couldn’t go wrong with this one. Thank you & hopefully we’ll be back at some point in the future.

Exceeded our expectations

We had the most wonderful time celebrating a big family birthday. Everyone loved the barn. The stand outs for us - (1) Ample seating with enough space for everyone to do their own thing, (2) great big dining table for us to enjoy meals together, (3) sizeable and very well stocked kitchen, (4) lovely outdoor space for eating and playing, (5) beautiful surrounding area and we loved Hay on Wye. My nephews loved the mezzanine bedroom but it was a little restrictive at night time but the kitchen was big enough for the party to continue in :) We would go back in a heartbeat!

Utterly amazing

The pictures made me think it was too good to be true but it was even better than this! Stunning property and so much space. Well insulated - we actually had to turn the heating off. The kitchen is laid out very well and a sociable space whilst being functional. Superb location for dog walking and hill running.

Extended family get together

The property was perfect for our requirements and the weather was one of the sunniest weeks of the year! Apart from the local pub (a 4 minute walk away), visits to towns like Ross on Wye and Brecon all required the use of cars, but we new this before we went so it wasn't an issue. The local pub (The Pandy) dealt with our large group very well, to the extent that we decided to go back and have the final meal of our holiday in their lovely garden. Coralie was at hand to deal with any queries that arose and she very kindly supplied us with an extra new cantilever umbrella as the weather was so hot in the sun.. The property doesn't have air-con but as the chances of getting a week of consistent temperatures in the high 20's C must be fairly remote, that is understandable. We did have the use of 2 electric fans for the top bedroom and the baby's room. All the rooms were well equipped for our needs and we would have no hesitation in recommending the house to any large group who want a nice property in a quiet area . That said, at harvest time, the local farmers are out on their tractors quite early , but you soon get used to them.
