A little off the beaten track are the Begwyns, 580 acres of National Trust hills and rolling landscape with breathtaking views across the Brecon Beacons National Park. For the energetic, there s access to mountain biking, climbing, kayaking, and horse riding where you can explore the 4 mile stretch between Glasbury and Hay. Hay on Wye (4 miles) is within easy reach and is famous for its international book festival, with plenty of second hand bookshops, an art house cinema and independent shops, as well as The Globe at Hay. One of the highlights of this riverside cottage is its proximity to the River Wye. As you meander down the driveway, you'll be greeted by the calming sound of the flowing river and the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside.
