  • Stylish and spacious barn conversion that’s ideal for romantic getaways
  • Ideal for walking in the Herefordshire countryside and Brecon Beacons National Park
  • Within easy reach of Hay-on-Wye, the vibrant market town of books
Property code: OC-83703

The peaceful hamlet of Allensmore sits deep within the Herefordshire countryside. Here you can walk from your doorstep across acres of farmland and open countryside, taking in the views and wildlife along the way. For a more challenging terrain, join the Offa’s Dyke Path on the Hatterrall Ridge, or tackle Hay Bluff and the Black Mountains. For keen anglers, the River Wye meanders close by where you can enjoy coarse fishing with a day permit. For more fun on the water, hire a canoe locally from Hereford Kayak Canoe at Preston on Wye. A trip to the vibrant market town of Hay-on-Wye is a must, where you can pick up local produce from a farmer’s market, browse the independent shops or relax and enjoy a director's choice movie at Booth's Cinema.

Set within the grounds of the owner’s home, this retreat is perfect for couples wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Access is via the covered, wooden-framed parking area, where there is storage for muddy boots, bikes, and fishing equipment. Climb the stairs to enter the open-plan living space which is light and spacious and finished with a contemporary twist. The lounge area is perfect for relaxing after a long day - sink into the sofa and enjoy a good movie on the TV. The sofa can be pulled out into a bed to sleep 2 children or one adult. For dining, the table and chairs are perfect for two. The kitchen area is well equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, coffee machine and fridge with an ice compartment. To the front of the barn conversion is a generously sized king bedroom where you can enjoy a good night’s rest. There is a shower room with rainfall shower and WC.

Outside, tucked away to the rear of the barn, there is an enclosed garden with table and chairs and BBQ for summer dining, as well as a fire pit for cosy nights under the stars. There is off-road covered parking for one car, and storage for bikes is available on request.

Very comfortable, clean and tidy and the location is central for many National Trust and other venues within a twenty mile or so radius. The owner was friendly and on hand if needed. We were fortunate to have excellent weather, despite being only mid-March and we had a thoroughly good holiday. The only thing not to recommend is the local pub, it waRead mores just about OK but certainly nothing to recommend as somewhere to have a decent meal.. There are others, a little further away which are excellent. Hide
