Stargazer's Field House is a converted early 19th-century coach house in Hardwicke, Herefordshire, just 3.5 miles from Hay-on-Wye. It sits beside a large field with open countryside views and scores 4.9 out of 5 from 44 guest reviews. The owners Sandra and Mel live on site and are consistently praised for their warm welcome guests regularly arrive to fresh flowers, Welsh cakes and homemade cake.

The setting is rural but not isolated. Red kites land in the field behind the property. Owls call at night. There's a bus stop at the entrance and footpaths from the doorstep. Guests have direct access to part of the owners' extensive garden perfect for kids and wildlife watching.

The single-storey property sleeps 5 across two bedrooms. The super king bedroom has a zip-link bed configurable as twins. The family bedroom has a double and a single. The woodburning stove and plush sofas make the sitting room genuinely cosy. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you need.

Hay-on-Wye is 3.5 miles away with bookshops and good restaurants. Hereford Cathedral with the Mappa Mundi is 20 miles. The Brecon Beacons and Black Mountains are easily reachable for walking and cycling.

Stargazer's Field House suits families, couples and walkers who want a well-kept, spotlessly clean base in beautiful Herefordshire countryside with genuinely helpful hosts on site.
