Distance from Hay: Central Hay
Brilliantly located in central Hay, peaceful with private parking The Old Pub used to The Half Moon and is the oldest house in Hay, as mentioned in several books, it used to be a pub and maintains that warm cosy feel of those happy days. It is now a much loved family home, with the ground floor rented out separately, and the top floor converted into holiday accommodation during Hay Festival. It has some quirky features such as the side door and beautiful old wooden stairs winding up to the top floor and some walls decorated with books to compliment Hays renowned reputation as the worlds first book town.The larger bedroom has a double bed that has a nice view to the hills, and the other smaller bedroom, previously our child’s, is a cheerful buttercup yellow, with views over Hays lovely wonky rooftops . There is a sitting room, which can alternatively be a third bedroom with a sofa bed, that offers a restful spot to gaze out to the hills. Over the festival we allow guests to use our personal kitchen, and there are also essentials in the sitting room ,such as a small counter fridge, kettle with tea and coffee provided. The toilet and bathroom are in the middle floor with towels provided. During the festival the downstairs flat is also booked out so we ask if you could enter and leave the house quietly, although once on the top floor noise doesn't travel. This house is a quirky experience in itself. However its also our home, could do with an update but we find it comfy and quirky and hope you will too.
