Explore the Local Countryside

Our luxury lodges are nestled on the outskirts of the pretty little town of Hay-on-Wye, just a stone’s throw away the English/Welsh border. You’ll be met with far-reaching views over Painscastle village, the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons, which are easily discoverable via foot, car, or bike – the perfect way to spend a sunny summer’s afternoon!

Step outside your luxury lodge and discover a vast array of wonderful walking routes, suitable for all ages and abilities, right on your doorstep. You’ll discover acres upon acres of incredible open common land located behind the lodges, perfect for adventuring and exploring with your family, friends and faithful companion! In the summertime, you can tuck into a tasty picnic on the common, whilst immersing yourself in the luscious greens of the county’s fields and trees. What could be better?!

Further afield in the Brecon Beacons National Park, you’ll find an extensive range of adventurous walking, cycling and mountain biking trails. This expansive landscape is home to a variety of wonderful wildlife, and red kites and buzzards can often be spotted circling above. If you want to discover the very best views and most colourful backdrops, we highly recommend embarking on an energetic hike along Offa’s Dyke Path.

Take Part in an Adventurous Activity

There are so many amazing land and water-based activities in Mid Wales – we guarantee you’ll be spoilt for choice! If you’ve always wanted to go horse riding, look no further than Bryngwyn Riding Centre for the best hacking and riding lessons in Mid Wales. These small, friendly riding stables offer group or individual hacking sessions amongst spectacular surroundings, as well as riding lessons for all abilities. 

Alternatively, Black Mountain Adventure offers an exciting range of on-land and in-water outdoor adventures. Situated in the Black Mountains & Brecon Beacons National Park, you’ll find a fantastic selection of activities that are sure to suit everyone’s needs. Choose from on-land activities such as abseiling, archery, caving, clay pigeon shooting, mountain biking, orienteering, rock climbing and rope courses; or, take to the water for some canoeing, kayaking, paddleboarding, white water rafting, or gorge adventures.

If your heart is set on canoeing down the River Wye, we highly recommend Celtic Canoes. They offer a range of canoe excursions to suit all ages and abilities, including half day trips from Glasbury to Hay-on-Wye and full day trips from Glasbury to Whitney-on-Wye. Experience gentle rapids, wonderful wildlife, and plenty of twists and turns on your canoe adventure…
