Broad Street, town centre · B&B

A Grade II listed 17th-century B&B on Broad Street with riverside gardens, en-suite double and twin rooms, and breakfasts that regularly earn praise from guests.

About Rest for the Tired

Rest for the Tired occupies a Grade II listed building dating to 1623 on Broad Street in the heart of Hay-on-Wye, its riverside garden giving guests a quiet spot to sit out despite the property's central position. The building's age is part of its appeal, with original features sitting alongside comfortably updated rooms.

Accommodation is in en-suite double or twin rooms, each fitted with a television and tea and coffee making facilities, and the B&B is closely associated with a sister property, Black Swan Cottage, offering further rooms nearby under the same management. Breakfasts are a particular strength, cooked to order and consistently mentioned by returning guests as a highlight of a stay.

Its Broad Street address puts it within a few minutes' walk of every bookshop and pub in the centre of Hay, making a car unnecessary once you've arrived, and its long-standing reputation among regular visitors to the town reflects a consistently well-run, personally managed operation.
