Belle Vue

The most perfect house to celebrate our 60th birthdays in.

Thank you so much.

Really perfect property for the 7 of us, so much space and incredible location.

Games room was fantastic, table tennis tournament was so much fun

The house was beautifully presented, well equipped and clean.

The bedrooms were all equally comfortable and tastefully decorated so no one had to put up with the 'inferior room'. Everything we needed was provided including the ear plugs! It was delightful to sit and eat in the garden for meals. Being right in the centre of the town was a bonus. It was easy to pop out to explore the shops, galleries and cafés. On Thursday we could step out of the garden gate and buy our breakfast croissants at the weekly market. A thoroughly enjoyable and comfortable stay.

Absolutely beautiful house and everything is of high quality.

We have stayed in many properties and usually there is something one of us doesn't like but this time we all loved it. The only negative was it rained which stopped us enjoying the garden space. Location was perfect for us only a few steps away from the town and 5mins walk to the River Wye. We had a non-house related problem and the owner was very helpful when I reached out for assistance.

Probably the best rented house we have ever stayed in.

Excellent location, right in the centre of town, but with a secluded garden and off-street parking for 3/4 cars. Interior fittings were top quality, everything you could need in the kitchen and very stylish. Communication with our host John was also very good, with all our questions answered promptly. We would definitely hope to stay again in the future...

Again, a wonderful few days in the perfect house in an excellent location.

Thank you.

The accommodation was perfect for our group.

Spacious and comfortable and a great location. Lovely furnishings and well-equipped kitchen. The off street parking was a big plus. We all enjoyed our stay, thank you.

This was one of the best holidays we've ever been on!

Perfectly located in the middle of town, making it easy to walk around and enjoy the many bookstores. The house was very clean and luxurious with gorgeous bedrooms and bathrooms. Plenty of space for big groups to cook and dine together. Parking for 2 cars and there were a couple of car parks very close by providing cheap parking.

Fantastic!

Would absolutely recommend this property. So much space and everything so easy to use. Very well equipped kitchen. We managed to squeeze four cars onto the driveway- just!

An amazing property in the centre of Hay on wye , with everything you could possibly wish for.

It was luxury but still felt homely & we all loved our time there . What a bonus to have onsite parking & all bedrooms with their own bathrooms & an extra one on the ground floor . We loved it so much we’ve booked again for a weekend in April .

We were a party of 7 and the house was lovely and spacious with everything that you could wish for.

Amazing house, great facilities and right in town.

Owner was helpful with a couple of small issues and sorted them straight away. If you have a family gathering, definitely book this place.

An amazing house.

Spacious, comfortable, warm, excellent facilities, all rooms beautifully presented, modern kitchen and bathrooms throughout. 10/10. Central location so perfect for a larger group visiting the Hay festival - just a shame the weather wasn't better so that we could have enjoyed the garden spaces ! Prompt communications with owner too ! Would definitely recommend and will definitely look to return.

Excellent accommodation in a very pleasant town.

Lovely house very central position.

We were a family of 3 generations & there was space for everyone. A great stay would highly recommend.

Great place.

Well-maintained and beautifully fitted out. Very comfortable and a fabulous location for experiencing Hay on Wye. Real heart of the town stuff.

We had such a lovely weekend staying here.

The cottage was so well equipped and clean. Everything we needed was here. Also a great location for exploring Hay and the surrounding countryside.

The house and location were perfect for our family gathering, it was very comfortable, spacious and well equipped.

We had a lovely time, thank you.

This property is amazing.

10/10 in every respect. The location is excellent too. I have never stayed in a better property. We’re sorry to say that one dish got broken, but we have already told the owner. We hope to return next year.

Magnificent property right in the middle of Hay-on Wye.

You couldn't be any closer to the town and so convenient for access to the river etc. Every room was superbly decorated and comfortable. Every bedroom was as good as the other, no one had to compromise. For a large family gathering this house was perfect. Loads of room for everyone. The basement games room was a bonus.

What a wonderful place to stay.

We took a trip as a group of four couples to lovely Hay for a weekend. Belle Vue was perfect; centrally located, high quality kitchen and bathrooms ( loads of them) , comfortable beds and parking for three cars( just). We were all surprised and delighted by this lovely holiday cottage and would definitely stay there again in a heartbeat.

Another fabulous stay at Belle Vue; again the house and location could not be faulted and we were lucky with glorious spring weather to enjoy walking within Hay and further afield on the Brecon Beacons.

A minor problem with the heating was resolved super quickly; all the more impressive as this occurred on a Bank Holiday weekend! Thank you so much for having us to stay again, we look forward to returning.

Just spent a week at Belle Vue, with my family some have travelled from Southern Ireland, Cheltenham and Liverpool, nine adults in all, and have just had the best week in this beautiful house, it has absolutely everything for a perfect stay, the house is so comfortable and homely, beautifully decorated, beds so comfortable with lovely fresh linen, and all en-suites amazing with fantastic showers, kitchen superb, living room nice and cosy.

Lovely little town, and house is situated right in centre, so don’t have to travel far for any forgotten items. Will definitely be back as soon as we can all get together again. John and Kimberley this house is a credit to all the hard work you must have put into it, and we all wish you the best of luck with your fantastic house.

It was amazing!

Top notch facilities. Had everything you could possibly need. Been refurbished to a high spec and very tastefully done. Loved it. A perfect place for our family celebration weekend . Would recommend it !!!’

Fabulous house for a group of 8 friends over a long weekend.

Very comfortable, spacious and well equipped. Right in the heart of a lovely town centre too.

The only negative is the paths around the house, when wet they are very slippy.

The worst one was the sloping path from the garden, it was lethal, I had a nasty fall on arrival at the house as a result. It really needs to be regularly scrubbed.

Lovely house, warm and welcoming.

Hay on Wye is a good little town with everything on your doorstep. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

What a delightful place to stay.

10 of us spent New Year at the property and wanted for nothing. Ample crockery, cutlery, glassware, pans, utensils, all top quality. Bedrooms and bathrooms very large and comfortable, all linen superb. The icing on the cake was the basement games room which kept adults and children amused for hours. Couldn't fault anything. Thank you

This was a return visit to this lovely, spacious house and brilliant location for a pre-Christmas gathering of adult siblings and partners.

It is beautifully furnished and very comfortable both in the bedrooms and living areas; provided with everything we could wish for in the kitchen; and the hosts replied quickly and helpfully to any queries. The town is on the doorstep, as are country walks/runs; perfect for our purposes and very highly recommended.

A beautiful property in a lovely central location.

Lots of space , very well equipped kitchen and all rooms furnished to a high standard. Would definitely stay again

What an amazing property!

As a group of female friends we have stayed in numerous properties over the last 20 years. Belle Vue was the best by far! The kitchen was very well equipped and had masses of storage. The bathrooms were immaculate with a plentiful supply of hot water. The provision of loo rolls, toiletries and cleaning products was an added bonus. There was plenty of room to spread out and relax. A wonderful, comfortable property - we had a lovely stay and didn't want to leave! Thank you John and Kimberley

We have just returned from a family holiday, 6 adults and a 2 year old, at Belle Vue and wow what a holiday home, very spacious, clean and ideally situated in the heart of Hay on Wye, the best we have stayed in.

A good stock of essentials were supplied... toilet rolls, dishwasher tablets even laundry tablets. One small item we could not find was tongues in the kitchen, also another cafetiere would have been useful but not a huge problem. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful property, we will hopefully return and will definitely recommend

We enjoyed our stay in Hay-on-Wye in Belle Vue.

The house is fitted out to a high standard and it’s clear that every little detail has been thought through. The kitchen is amazing and the bedrooms very comfortable. Also you won’t find a better position to stay in Hay. Perfect for everything. The local pubs and restaurants are all within a short stroll and we enjoyed every meal we had out.

It is difficult to find a good quality property for five couples on a walking holiday, one with five comfortable roomy bedrooms and bathrooms.

We hit the jackpot with Belle Vue, it will be nigh impossible to improve on it! We all thoroughly enjoyed this beautifully prepared town house, it's position right in the town, and the great walking nearby and just a little further afield in the Beacons.

Our extended family of 7 (aged 5 to 73) absolutely loved Belle Vue!

We have stayed in Hay several times before, but this was the perfect house in a very central location. We like to cook and the kitchen was fantastic and so well-equipped. The beds were really comfortable, the games room a wonderful addition, and the outdoor space really relaxing. My 5yr old granddaughter loved the bats circling the garden at dusk! We would highly recommend this house.

We've just had a fantastic week with extended family at Belle Vue.

Everything is top notch: the house, the furnishings, the equipment, the space, the location.... Obviously this is a generously appointed place with lovely furniture, nice linens and posh toys; but I really appreciated having a decent supply of toilet roll, cloths, BBQ, cleaning and laundry equipment available. Makes keeping the house tidy whilst you're there much easier, and no one wants to dash out for dishwasher tablets when they've just arrived at a place. Top marks as well for making it easy for us to separate our recyclable rubbish- not many places do this so well and it really made a difference. Location is amazing: bang in the centre, so you can cheerfully ignore the car. Great little shops in town, and a good supermarket ten minutes walk from the front door. Hay was also suprisingly entertaining; we came for the walking and a bit of canoeing but really enjoyed poking about the town and castle for a couple of rest days. The market on our last full day was a bit of a hit and provided some inspiration for a last evening's meal of lovely local stuff. Looking forward to re-booking soon!

What a stunning property!

Absolutely gorgeous with everything we could have needed, and more. The beds were extremely comfortable, the showers were hot and powerful, the kitchen and living areas were spacious and superbly equipped. The garden is so pretty with plenty of seating too. The location of the property is perfect too, right in the centre of town. We had a wonderful week. Thank you!

A very comfortable and well appointed property, tastefully decorated, definitely will stay again next year.

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.

An exceptional property.

Nicely located in centre of Hay-on-Wye, spacious, very well equipped kitchen with beautiful comfortable bedrooms. Good, private outside space too though we were too busy enjoying the excellent local walks etc to make enough use of it. Some comments about the clock striking but not a serious detraction.

Lovely house - perfect for a family get together.

Extremely comfortable and well equipped, in an excellent location. We had a great time and enjoyed Hay on Wye and beautiful countryside and views. Thank you very much.

We have been using holiday lets for quite a few years and Belle Vue is by far the best we have had.

Superb house, perfectly positioned in the middle of town. The bedrooms, most with en suites were very comfortable and the en suites were very modern and spacious. The kitchen had more than enough pots, pans, crockery and cutlery to enable us to cook together easily and having 2 dishwashers was also a great idea. Belle Vue is perfect for families or a group.of friends as we were. The only down side was the parking as we had 4 cars but when you are in a town, any parking is a bonus. We thoroughly recommend Belle Vue to anyone wanting to explore this beautiful area.

This house was perfect for our large group visiting the Hay festival.

It was perfectly sited within walking distance of the festival and close to shops and cafes. Having the options of twin beds and 7 separate rooms to sleep in along with multiple bathrooms suited us very well. The house is impeccably furnished and decorated with lots of social space. The owners were communicative and responsive to our needs. The only advice I would give future renters is to bring good ear plugs as the chimes from the nearly clock tower (which go on all night) are audible in some bedrooms. Thank you to the owners for creating such a wonderful interior.

We’ve been holidaying as a group for 20 years now and this is the best equipped and designed property we’ve stayed in!

Whatever we thought we might need we found. Thank you for the beautiful house and the wonderful week we’ve had.

A group of ramblers had a very comfortable stay at Belle Vue.

It was ideal for multiple occupation. Facilities throughout the property were fantastic all bedrooms with ensuite or a large bathroom. We had 2 guests who stopped with us over the weekend and the put me up on the second floor study was very comfortable. Centrally placed in Hay close to shops, pubs and restaurants and the constant chiming from the clock tower it is an ideal base. We would recommend Belle Vue to anyone needing high quality multiple accommodation.

One of the best properties I have ever been to.

I wanted to buy the house it was that great

We had a fantastic week at Belle Vue.

All of our party of 8 agreed its probably the best holiday home any of us has stayed in. The house itself was exceptionally clean, comfortable and well equipped with quality furnishings. We would certainly recommend a stay a here and have indeed already booked again for next year!

A perfect choice for a group of friends, as we all had space and private facilities with extensive, comfortable communal areas.

Town centre location is excellent, together with adequate parking space. Would have no hesitation in booking again for a friends/family get together

Absolutely amazing!

What a beautiful house. The photos don’t do it justice! Also has an amazing big fridge you cannot see in the photos. The beds are really comfy, decoration of the house is amazing. Driveway parking and an EV charger. The only thing to be aware of is the town centre clock chimes every 15 minutes all through the night and is quite loud!

Needs a coffee machine but other than that a very nice property.

Superb holiday accommodation right in the centre of Hay on Wye.

The house has everything we needed for a relaxing stay, and it was obvious that it has been carefully fitted out for that aim. We stayed over a v cold weekend, but the house remained warm throughout and was a delight to come back to after a day out walking. We particularly enjoyed the games room for an evening in. The location is excellent with good pubs and restaurants within easy walking distance. Also, having 3 parking spaces was such a bonus. We would absolutely recommend to anyone thinking of renting this house.

Beautifully decorated, spacious house in the centre of Hay.

It is easy to walk everywhere in town from the house. All the rooms are large and there is plenty of space for people to spread out. The town clock does chime on the quarter but just added to the charm of the location.

We all had a lovely family holiday, celebrating our daughters 18th Birthday.

As a lover of books, Hay-on-Wye was a good choice. We could walk to all the bookshops within ease!! The house was amazing and had everything you needed for a relaxing break away. You can see that a lot of time and effort (& money!!) had been put into the refurbishment of the property. The well equipped Co-Op store at the far end of the road had everything you needed, within walking distance. The children thought it was the best property we had ever stayed in. We will definitely consider booking again in the future.

What a wonderful house!

It has been refurbished to a very high standard and offers everything required for very comfortable stay for our party of eight adults. The owners really have throught about all the details. It is in a prefect spot to explore Hay, and all the very interesting shops, and the beautiful surronding countryside. We hope to book another stay sometime.

Well thought out and beautiful renovation of this fabulous home.

Loved spending the late afternoon/early evenings in the garden with a glass of wine! Great kitchen with everything you need. Comfy beds with super soft linen. So convenient for endless mooching in the bookshops and plenty of places in the house and garden to sit and lose yourself in a novel. A big bonus is that nobody gets the small bedroom because there isn't one! Owners very responsive when needed. Such a great place to have been able to unwind. Thank you!

Outstanding property, comfortable, clean, spacious with everything you need and more.

The extra things they thought of. Brilliant. One of the best properties we have stayed in. 5 star. Owners so helpful for us. Would highly recommend it to anyone and would definitely go back. Hay a lovely place to stay in. Grandsons loved the games room, garden lovely to sit out in. Many thanks John and Kimberly for allowing us to stay in your beautiful house.
