About this place
The Shepherd’s hut was built to our specification. We wanted to ensure that it could accommodate a full-length bed for maximum comfort (who wants to sleep crunched up unless you’re a dormouse?) as well as a wet room equipped with a shower, basin and an upmarket self-composting loo. A drop-leaf oak table was fitted under the triple windows to maximize working space (although it is difficult to remain focused on tasks when the view is of the beckoning Brecon Beacons, but it’s great for somewhere to spread out the weekend papers). The attention to detail is wonderful with oak floorboards, underfloor central heating (even in the wet room), sheep’s wool insulation in the walls and a wood burning stove for good measure. Even the ironmongery was sourced and made locally. Once built, it was finally winched into place (quite a feat of engineering in itself) so that the largest window looks out towards the aforementioned Brecon Beacons, the window over the bed looks up across the field towards a majestic oak whilst the view from the stable door is of Hay Bluff and the Black Mountains. Amanda set to with her sewing machine to make the soft furnishings as well as upholstering the chairs. She then rummaged around in the barn and in local shops to find the remaining pieces to give the hut its finishing touches. Outside there is your own private hot tub to soak away the aches and pains of the day. You can relax on the swing seat on the decking and enjoy the panoramic views whilst supper cooks in the pizza oven or BBQ. As dusk melts into night you can marvel at the stars in the Dark Sky Reserve whilst toasting marshmallows over the open fire. Each morning Amanda will bring a continental breakfast hamper to your door.
Argoed Barns is a collection of four different types of luxury accommodation primarily, but not exclusively for couples and dog lovers. It is nestled on the side of a hill with stunning panoramic views of the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons. Attention to detail is evident everywhere.
Accommodation comprises a self-contained converted barn holiday cottage which can sleep 4/5 people in two bedrooms and welcomes up to three dogs.
The Shepherd's Hut is ideal for a couple; It has its own integrated wet room and private hot tub with a continental hamper breakfast delivered to your door each morning. Cooking facilities are limited to a barbecue/pizza oven.
Tucked away in opposite corners of the field, you will find our two luxury camping pods with their own private facilities. Seren Bach (meaning Little Star in Welsh) and Seren Mawr (Big Star) both have a huge 5m wide window to capitalise on the breathtaking views. There is nothing better than returning at the end of a day in the hills to relax with a glass of bubbly in your own hot tub and admire the night sky for which the Brecon Beacons has justly earned its Dark Sky Reserve status. These are perfect (dog friendly) hideaways for a special romantic break or for those needing a digital detox.
