Five miles from Hay 'Town of Books', and the 'Hay Festival', Quarry Cottage is a peaceful holiday home. This 18th century single story cottage was modernised and enlarged 30 years ago to provide spacious accommodation - it sleeps 5-7 people and is comfortably furnished.
Set in woods, the garden slopes to a field looking out on the Black Mountains, and a common rises at the rear. The cottage itself is secluded and ideal for quiet retreats, also cycling or walking away from the crowd, through woodland, over common and moors.
