Steppes Cottage

Tucked away in the heart of the Golden Valley, Peterchurch is a picturesque village that makes a wonderful base for a break with family or friends. Surrounded by rolling hills and timeless rural scenery, this characterful stone-built cottage is the perfect place to enjoy the slower pace of life.

Embark on walking routes through the Black Mountains, where wide-open views and dramatic landscapes provide memorable days out. A highlight is Arthur’s Stone, a Neolithic burial chamber perched on the hilltop with views across the valley.

For nature lovers and dog walkers, Brobury House (5.5 miles) boasts eight acres of riverside gardens to wander, while the nearby River Wye is ideal for those who fancy trying canoeing or kayaking. Hay-on-Wye (9 miles) invites you to spend a leisurely afternoon browsing world-famous bookshops, sampling its riverside cafes and independent stores along the way.

Beautifully refurbished and full of character, this charming holiday home offers a blend of traditional features and modern luxury. Sleeping up to eight guests across three spacious floors, it has been thoughtfully restored to showcase its history; with exposed beams, original oak flooring and a carefully preserved bread oven adding warmth and authenticity.

Contemporary slate-finished bathrooms and thoughtful finishing touches throughout ensure comfort during your stay. On the ground floor, the inviting living spaces are designed for relaxation, whether you're curling up with a book by the wood burner or sitting down together around the dining table to share a leisurely meal.

The first floor boasts a double bedroom and a twin room served by a modern family bathroom, while the second floor hosts a super-king-size room with a snug en-suite shower room with characterful low beams, and a double bedroom set under the eaves. Outside, step across the driveway to enter the garden which provides a wonderful place to unwind.
