    “This is a fantastic holiday home.”

    It is extremely spacious and well equipped, and the owner seems to have anticipated everything we could need, including two dishwashers! I really can't think of anything wrong with it except that the listing said there was parking for 3 cars and I think they would need to be very small ones. I was rather concerned that the chimes from the clock tower would be too intrusive, but by keeping the windows closed we hardly noticed them.

Situated in the heart of the bustling market town of Hay on Wye is this superb holiday home, Belle Vue, a former Victorian vicarage, next to a chiming clock tower, which has recently been refurbished to a high standard.

Perfect for families or large groups, Belle Vue enjoys terrific proximity to nearby amenities and attractions, including the Brecon Beacons National Park, and offers everything you need for a wonderful, fun-filled self-catered stay.

Set over four floors, make use of the well-designed living areas, which include a well-equipped kitchen/dining area where you can prepare feasts for a the whole family, a sitting room complete with its own electric flame-effect stove taking centre-stage, separate snug with card/ games table, you can also catch up over a glass of wine on a choice of 2 furnished patios.

For guests needing a separate work space there is a well equipped office room on the second floor, adults and children alike will love the basement games room equipped with table football and compact snooker and table tennis tables.

When sleep calls, retreat to one of five tastefully-decorated bedrooms, four of which come with an accompanying en-suite shower room, each one an idyllic location to refresh and reinvigorate after a long day.

If you fancy acquainting yourselves with your local area, step into Hay on Wye, world famous for its bookshops and the celebrated festival, or take a stroll or a canoe ride along the River Wye or hike up to the beautiful landmark of Hay Bluff along Offa's Dyke Path and the nearby outdoor activity centre at Three Cocks provides a huge range of sporting and outdoor pursuits for all ages.

After all that activity relax at the stylish Booth cinema or spot celebrities over a drink at the Swan Hotel or the ancient Three Tuns pub, or maybe book a table at Tomatitos Tapas bar which is a great setting for big groups.

The recently-restored landmark of Hay Castle is also worth a visit whilst you’re in town.
