One of four beautiful lodges set within the grounds of a traditional working farm, it’s perfect for enthusiastic walkers, with farm trails and access to the Brecon Beacons Way and Usk Canal.

A peaceful holiday home creating a charming getaway spot for a couple or solo traveller, this quiet retreat 0.5 miles from the River Usk is wonderful for nature lovers. You’ll love exploring the farm’s trails and wildlife ponds, where you can even take a bracing dip if you’re the wild swimming type. The charming village of Talybont-on-Usk is just 0.5 miles away, offering excellent local amenities including two pubs and shops.

As you approach this contemporary lodge, the first thing you’ll notice will be the stunning valley views. Inside, you’ll be greeted with quality wooden floors, large windows and carefully chosen furniture offering a high standard of living. The open-plan living space is cosy and functional. If it’s a little oer (cold), light up the wood burner to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. In the kitchen, glossy white tiles are offset with navy blue units for a striking appearance. Once you’ve prepped yummy holiday meals, sit down to eat them in the spacious dining area. You’ll also have a grassy garden which integrates seamlessly into the surrounding landscaped grounds. It contains a hot tub for stargazing, a dining table with chairs and a BBQ for al fresco cooking.

The lodge is excellently positioned for outdoor activities, with the Taff Cycle Trail, Brinore Tramroad and Henry Vaughan Walk within 0.5 miles of your front door. Nearby, you’ll have the impressive Blaen y Glyn waterfalls (7.5 miles) and the scenic Pontsticill Reservoir (9 miles) for scenic views and walking. The popular town of Brecon (7 miles) is home to a cinema, theatre, historic cathedral and a variety of independent shops, cafés and restaurants for you to discover.
