One-Off Feature
A beautiful off grid barn in the heart of the Black Mountains, complete with log fired sauna & sublime natural surroundings. Breathtaking views, roaring woodburner and hill walks right from the door.
General Info
A beautiful artistic off grid hideaway in the heart of the hills. Perched high on the slopes of the Black Mountains in the midst of the Brecon Beacons National Park, enjoy breath taking views and dramatic night skies from the terrace, or stride out for endless trails through bluebell woods and ancient meadows. Crickhowell is just ten minutes drive away with local traders, a handy mountaineering shop, pubs and plenty of coffee shops. Abergavenny, of Food Festival fame is ten minutes in the other direction, a thriving market town forming the heart of Wales foodie revolution. Cathedral towns of Brecon and Hereford are also within easy reach, as well as Wales Industrial Heritage sites in Blaenavon. Nearby attractions include beautiful walks directly in to the Black Mountains and Sugar Loaf Mountain, cycle hire available with National cycle routes and mountain biking centres throughout the area. Pony trekking throughout the nearby Llanthony Valley, fishing on the River Usk, canoeing on the River Wye and high wire and zip wire adventures at Llangorse Lake. With a quirky and original layout, Hillside Barn is the perfect cottage for a couple or family looking for something a little bit different. The living room has patio doors leading out to the garden with BBQ table and chairs and incredible countryside views. With wood burner, (first basket of logs included), comfortable sofas TV along with its open plan kitchen/ dining area with gas oven and hob, fridge, dining table and chairs. Both bedrooms are accessed via external steps with romantic fairy lights guiding your way. There is one double which leads onto the twin bedroom with additional single bed, sleeping a total of 5. Please note the only WC is located downstairs and must be accessed by going outside and then re entering on the ground floor. For this reason we do not recommend the property for anyone with any mobility issues or very small children. Downstairs is the shower room with WC. Outside is the stunning terrace area with garden furniture and BBQ, woodland, and also the wind turbine and solar panels, the natural spring, and log stores. There is a rustic wood fired sauna, which is shared with the sister property Hillside Barn which can be found lower down the hillside and is completely separate and private to Blackthorn. Please note that the property is Off Grid and it is particularly well suited for guests interested in reducing their environmental footprint and using resources sparingly. The water is from the spring, power from wind and sun, heat from logs, and the Wi Fi is (unlimited) 4G. Fossil fuel support (for when eco equilibrium proves challenging) is present in the form of a diesel generator and gas fired radiators.
