The perfect base to explore the local area with its independent shops and eateries or enjoy a more active day exploring the Brecon Beacons with its breath-taking scenery and abundance of footpaths.

Explore magnificent Bannau Brycheiniog, also known as the Brecon Beacons National Park, from this inviting apartment for two in Talgarth. Perfect for a couple, the one-bedroom, first-floor bolthole is set within a handsome period period at the heart of the rural Welsh town. It is ideal for anyone wishing to have river, hill and mountain walks right on the doorstep, while also being close to shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants.

Open the main door to the building and head up to your private apartment. Wander down the hall to the lounge/diner where you can kick back and unwind after your exhilarating excursions. Read your books or catch up on your favourite boxsets on the Smart TV from the comfort of the sofa, which also doubles as a bed for two additional guests. There is also a table in here where you can dine in style on those evenings you choose not to eat out. Take a few steps down to the kitchen where you can rustle up these tasty meals and also prepare hot and cold drinks. When you are ready to turn in for the night, make your way back up to the main level of the apartment and head through to the double bedroom. Run yourself a long, hot bubble bath in the bathroom in the morning or treat yourself to an invigorating shower instead. There is no outside space with this apartment, but the river and waterside gardens are within 150 metres.

Walk 1 mile into Bronllys to see the motte and bailey fortress or venture 5 miles from your apartment to visit the famous Dinas Castle hillfort.

Right in the centre of Talgarth, this is a great location for all the village amenities. The Mill next door is worth a visit and sells delicious bread, and we popped our heads in the Post Office Museum below the flat too. The Bridge End Inn next door does lovely food and good beer. The village car park is a couple of minutes' walk. But you can alsoRead more walk straight into the hills. Small but comfy flat with everything two people need for a few days. Hide

The cottage was great and had everything we needed. The bed was super comfy, and despite being on the main street, was really quiet at night. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathroom was clean and fresh.

This is a lovely clean apartment in a beautiful old building. The village is extremely friendly with a pub that serves great beer and food.

Nice quite location, clean and comfortable. Only negative for me was the sloping ceiling in the kitchen which ment my partner, who is over 6 feet, "couldn't" wash up. Will be bringing a stool for him next time
