Hoarders Cottage is a 16th-century time capsule sitting right in Hay-on-Wye, Hereford. This adults-only retreat combines ancient beams with modern luxuries. Just steps from town but feels miles from anywhere. It's like staying in a museum where you can touch everything - and yes, the name fits perfectly!
The cottage sits in a sweet spot - walk less than 10 minutes and you're browsing Hay's famous bookshops or sipping pints in local pubs. Venture a bit further to discover the wild beauty of the Brecon Beacons. Perfect base for hikers, book lovers and anyone needing to escape real life. No WiFi means actual conversations might happen.

Shocking, I know.
Inside you'll find an open-plan living area with kitchen, dining space and sitting area featuring a proper woodburning stove. The bedroom boasts an en-suite bathroom with power shower and freestanding bath. Outside, your private patio offers countryside views when you're not soaking in the hot tub.
Nearby attractions include Hay Castle (0.2 miles, 4-minute walk), the stunning Brecon Beacons National Park (5 miles, 15-minute drive), Arthur's Stone (6 miles, 18 minutes) and Bronllys Castle (7 miles, 20 minutes). The famous Hay Festival site is just minutes away.
Hoarders Cottage works best for couples seeking a romantic hideaway. The hot tub, open fire and freestanding bath create perfect date nights. Just don't try bringing the kids - this accommodation is strictly adults-only and those steep stairs would give health and safety nightmares anyway.
