Pontypinna Hideaways

Forget all you know about how a cabin is shaped. Cast aside your notions of right angles and submit to the pleasure of curves. Inside the cabin is a spacious living space for breezing room to room, savouring downtime. Breakfast is had after waking up and padding through the morning light pouring through the bifold doors that stretch the length of the building. You could take to the terrace, and eat al fresco, with views of the Black Mountains in the distance and the morning birdsong. Making plans for the day will be seriously hindered by eyeing the suspended chairs, the electric hot tub or the firepit for when the sun goes down after a day of leisure.

Just 11 miles away from Hereford, you’re perfectly placed at the Anglo-Welsh border for adventure or leisure. You could take a day trip out to Hereford for all the city has to offer, or head into Wales for a tour of Hay-on-Wye, perusing the bookshops, strolling the markets or renting canoes for voyages down river. The Cat’s Back hikes, or the winding paths of the Black Mountains might call your name, and they don’t have to shout loudly, at just ten or so miles away.  When the day’s end comes to a close, you’ll be found back at the cabin, gathered at the table, the firepit, or looking skyward at the night sky lit up.
