One of four beautiful lodges enjoying an elevated location with stunning views across the Usk valley and farmland, simply perfect for couples wanting to enjoy the best of the Brecon Beacons National Park.

Whisk your loved one away to this stylish retreat in a beautiful setting close to Talybont-on-Usk. Sleeping just two guests, the single-storey, contemporary, barn-style cottage, which comes with a hot tub, is one of three exquisitely designed lodges in landscaped grounds on a farm within the impressive setting of Bannau Brycheiniog, also known as the Brecon Beacons. With opportunities for walking and wild swimming on site, the location is also perfect for anyone wishing to head off mountain climbing, cycling or canoeing.

Make your way inside to discover chic, exquisitely finished accommodation with more than a touch or two of luxury. At the heart of the holiday home is a bright, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with long windows that frame the views all around. Light the wood burner in here so it throws out a cosy glow, then curl up together on the sofa in front of the TV with a glass of wine in your hand. Treat each other to romantic meals whisked up in the elegant kitchen, where you will find everything you require to help you in your endeavours. Dine together at the table inside or out. At the end of each fabulous day away together, enjoy a sumptuous night’s sleep in the king-size bedroom, which has access to an impressive en-suite shower room, where you can soak under the double rainfall shower. Have coffee and even breakfast out on your patio on fine mornings. Cook on the BBQ and unwind in the hot tub when you return from your excursions.

Walk 2.5 miles from your base to reach the shores of the picturesque Talybont Reservoir. Hire bikes or canoes in Talybont-on-Usk itself and paddle or cycle out along the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal. Alternatively, walk or cycle a section of the Taff Trail, which passes through the village.
