A lovely little town. Obviously you will most likely be going for the bookshops. There are also other interesting shops, and on one of the days we visited - Thursday - a market.
Lovely countryside around too

Beautiful town. A must for all book lovers. Plenty of good quality eateries, providing a range of eating options.
Local people are very friendly.
We have visited three times in recent years and fully intend to visit again. We would never tire of this place.

Hay is great , there is always something to do here. Some lovely antique shops and vintage bizarres. Great coffee shops and restaurants. The Castle has been restored and is a beautiful gift to behold. We love walking along the river to The Warren and having a dip in the cold water.
A little gem of a place.

Hay is a beautiful village with many historic buildings and interesting shops. There are many options for outdoor recreation in the area. One thing to note is that most shops close at 5 PM. My favorite meal was dinner at The Old Black Lion. Every meal I had in Hay was excellent. Please note if you are using the bus to get from the train station at Hereford to check the bus schedule yourself since Google Maps pulled from the wrong table. There is a lovely walking path along the River Wye with amazing views of the river.

A wonderful place to visit!
A wonderful place to visit! Quirky shops, vast array of book & antique shops and a lovely market. Coffee shops we’ve visited have all been excellent. My husband and I regularly visit for a night or two. We dine at the Blue Boar and occasionally the Indian restaurant- both superb!
Lovely walks, and a ambience of calmness & fresh air entices us back all seasons.
My daughter and I have also camped nearby- that’s was fabulous too!

pretentious!
pretentious!
Only one overpriced pub which did food I liked.. the food cost telephone numbers
A lot of visitors looked they had just come out of a 1960's folk festival
Er, since the advent of Amazon do we really need bookshops?
Dedicated parking was clearly signed. Key access via the key safe was easy with the code provided via email beforehand. The "apartment" was spacious and very well stocked with all that you would need for an extended self catering stay. Helpful tips were posted all around. The sofa bed was straightforward to set up and surprisingly comfortable. Shower was adequate. Wifi was good for standard email etc (I didn't try streaming movies over it). A 10 minute walk into central Hay-on-Wye.
A wonderful apartment in Hay! From the meeting with the owner for the handover and tour of the apartment to our experience of living in a great apartment in this beautiful and eclectic town, our experience was really special. It was exactly what we needed and felt very comfortable, even having friends over for wine and cheese in the spacious living area. It was a perfect home-away-from home. Looking forward to returning in the future. Will definitely stay here again.
This is a great little property, conveniently located a short walk from the centre of Hay on Wye. We personally could have done with a little more space, but that is our preference, not a reflection on the property itself. The property was furnished and finished to a really high standard, and was lovely and cool during our recent heat wave! Thank you for the milk and Welsh cakes in the fridge on our arrival! Thank you so much
We loved the themed décor with every nook and cranny filled with interesting items. So much wood! There was parking in the lot, an elevator, a spring fed hot tub. There was a pool in the adjoining hotel for our use, but we stuck with the hot tub. Dinner (additional cost) was great with themed food available and roving singers. Breakfast (included) was served in a lovely room and was plentiful even though we are gluten free.
Perfect in every way, tucked away in a peaceful spot with a lovely south facing outdoor space and stream at the bottom of the garden (separated by a fence).The cottage was spotlessly clean and well equipped with lovely touches such as cut flowers, welcome goodies and a very helpful visitor guide. An easy stroll into Hay with all its amenities. A great weekend with weather to match. We look forward to returning !
I booked this property a year in advance to go to the Hay Festival. It was superb - great location and and furnished and equipped by someone with great style and attention to detail. The welcome basket was amazing and kept me going throughout my stay - not just tea, instant coffee but a loaf of bread, fruit, butter , jam and fresh coffee. I also loved the outside space.
The apartment is in an ideal location for visiting Hay town and the surrounding countryside. You can walk from the property to the town and access a wide range of bookshops, antique shops and places to eat. The location is very quiet and the property has been fitted out to a very high standard with well fitted kitchen, spacious shower and luxurious bedding.
The whole accommodation was tastefully decorated to an high standard and spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable - huge and had a memory foam topper and lovely down duvet. All the facilities were great and in working order; the communications exceptional and timely; and it’s location in the centre of Hay perfect.
Lovely hotel with a great position in Hay. The staff were very friendly, attentive and professional. Covid measures seemed appropriate and we always felt safe as we moved around the hotel. We had breakfasts and evening meals in the hotel, the quality of the food was excellent. Car parking is also available on site.
The location is beautiful, with stunning views, the accommodation is superb and the hosts could not have been kinder or more accommodating. The breakfasts were outstanding and small luxuries (baskets of fruit, home made cakes) made our stay really special - all 7 days :-)
The house was very well designed, had lots of storage space and was really clean. All bedrooms had ensuite bathrooms, which was brilliant. The welcome hamper was...welcome. Location was perfect, right in the town.The electric charging point next to the house was a bonus.
Had a lovely 2 night stay. The B&B is in a fantastic location and the room was very spacious. Breakfast was fantastic and had every need catered to. Really lovely that there were plenty of vegan and vegetarian choices for breakfast. Will definitely be coming back!
Amazing breakfast and great customer service. Private car park was easy to find, and the location is great to walk around the village. The hotel is 16th century, and has great character (albeit low ceilings for a tall person haha!)
Lovely Breakfast, spacious room and friendly staff! This is our second time in Hay and staying at the Seven Stars - we loved it every bit as much as our first time and will be back again!
Lovely view! Fantastic rainbow!’ Great location! Close to Hay-On-Wye!!
Hosts great! Breakfast delicious and very filling!
loved to hear and see the ewes, lambs and happy chickens!!
