Self-catering Holiday Cottages | Dream Vacation Rentals | Hideaways In Hay

“I adored my stay in my Hideaway. The Stables are in a gorgeous cobbled gated courtyard, and I spent my evenings drinking wine outside as the sun set and the birds chirped all around me. It has a wonderful sitting room, beautiful double bedroom and extremely well equipped kitchen, seamlessly mixing medieval with modern. It is excellent value for money, extremely quiet, in the middle of Hay, yet five minutes walk from beautiful countryside. I cannot recommend it more highly.”
