Switch off, relax and recharge with a stay at this charming cottage, in which original features mingle with modern amenities. With gorgeous rural views, a wood burner and walks from the door, it’s ideal for a getaway with family or friends at any time of the year.

Before you let yourselves through the door of this lovely holiday destination, take the time to turn around and admire the stunning countryside view. Once inside, you can head into either the comfortable lounge, where there’s plenty of seating and a Smart TV, or the dining room, which also has a squashy sofa and a wood burner – another lovely spot for a cosy night in, playing games after supper or recounting your day’s adventures. The kitchen leads off the dining room, and has plenty of cupboard and worktop space for all your culinary needs, and there’s also a handy utility room with a dishwasher, washing machine and shower. When you’re feeling tired, head up to the first floor and its choice of four bedrooms, which share a family bathroom. There are two doubles and two twins, all prettily decorated and with lovely wooden furniture. To really enjoy the stunning views, head outside and relax on the bench, positioned so that you can gaze towards the Black Mountains. And for drinks and meals in the fresh air, you can use the BBQ and seating on the enclosed patio.

The cottage is located on the owner’s 400-acre farm in the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, and is surrounded by scenic walks. If you want to be more adventurous you can hire a mountain bike, ride a horse, sail or even go caving. For a family day out, Tretower Court and Castle is just 2.5 miles away, and the National Showcaves Centre for Wales is 31.5 miles.

Enjoyed our stay, but felt the bedding could do with an update! One or two other maintenance issues, but they did not affect the stay! Glynn at 88, is doing remarkably well, considering he runs the farm together with wife Glo & son & daughter in law! The Farmers Arms, down the road, was good food, but we preferred the Bear at Crickhowell. Lots of gRead morereat walking and some on the flat i.e. canal paths and lakes. Definitely use what3words to find! Hide

Very happy indeed with the accommodation and helpfulness of the owners, who allowed us to postpone our original booking at very short notice (owing to illness). I would recommend the cottage as a great place to stay and a great location for exploring the Black Mountains. Very comfortable and quiet.

A wonderfully unfussy house which was able to comfortably accomodate us (ages 2 - 84) for a week. The kitchen has all that you need and we cooked for ourselves most evenings. Our meal out was at the Farmers Arms in Cwmdu. The food was excellent. We found lots to do in the area. Tretower Castle was great for old and young. Llangorse Lake was good foRead morer rowing and paddleboarding. We walked in the hills near the house, up from Crickhowell and up and around Pen y Fan. The paths are well kept. Hide
