Find the country houses that appeal to you the most
Looking for a country house?
The top choice for people wanting to get away from noise and fast-paced city life. Country houses are private homes based in the peaceful countryside, with communal facilities and meals available. Activities to unwind can be included too, such as trekking, birdwatching and cycling.
The breakfast was amazing, to be honest I would travel back just for the breakfast! it was far superior to any other B&B or hotel! The setting is gorgeous, we ate in the conservatory which is surrounded by a back field with sheep and a baby lamb. Super peaceful and quiet too
What a fabulous stay, just outside Hay On Wye, less than 10 minutes walk, this comfortable downstairs barn conversion was a perfect retreat. Well presented and styled, welcoming; flowers on the table, provisions in the kitchen, bread, milk, butter... Well kitted kitchen, comfortable living room and bedroom. Peaceful and quiet get away, surrounded by fields.. Welcoming hosts. Would recommend.
Excellent location, near the centre of Hay-on-Wye, but still quiet and peaceful. The cottage was spacious, well maintained and meticulously clean. It had everything we could possibly need and we all found it very comfortable. The best place we have stayed in Hay yet (out of 6 different accomodations). I would highly recommend this accomodation, it is great value for money.
A lovely, cosy, compact little flat with a rustic style and distinct character. It was really very quiet and peaceful, with no TV, which suited us fine - there were lots of books to browse. Parking right outside the property, and everything we needed for a lovely stay inside. Instructions were very clear and easy to follow and the owner was in contact to check we were settling in. It was very convenient for Hay town centre , bookshops and cafes less than 5 minutes from the house - it was exactly what we had been looking for.
Excellent location just a short walk from the centre of Hay on Wye. Nice to be able to go out to eat in the evening and not have to drive. Lovely and quiet and great to hear the sound of the birds. Beautiful surrounding countryside. We were lucky to have great weather although not quite warm enough to sit on the veranda.
Libby was a lovely host and the room was exactly what I wanted. Totally comfortable, warm and welcoming. The location was quiet and peaceful and the breakfast was truly excellent. Highly recommend.
The apartment is in an ideal location for visiting Hay town and the surrounding countryside. You can walk from the property to the town and access a wide range of bookshops, antique shops and places to eat. The location is very quiet and the property has been fitted out to a very high standard with well fitted kitchen, spacious shower and luxurious bedding.
Genuinely friendly hosts, wonderful views, lovely breakfast, quiet and serene. Kind of "back to nature" experience. Inside the cabin was more luxurious than we expected. We arrived during a heatwave but the cabin stayed remarkably cool - the owner told us this was because it was isolated with sheep wool.
Breakfast excellent - delicious spiced dried fruit compote and locally smoked fish with scrambled or poached eggs - and room was lovely and quiet and not overlooked - facing river so no noise at night with an open window - so peaceful - and pool was brilliant!
Breakfast plentiful and well presented with a wide range of choices. Great location just outside Hay with extensive views over countryside. Peaceful. Quiet. Hosts welcoming and attentive
