Lovely place to stay for a cosy winter weekend. Gorgeous log fire and comfy sofas to sit on and while away the evening, listening to jazz on the very convenient smart speaker. The bakery in Talgarth was great for breakfast supplies. All in all a very relaxing place to stay.

Nicola and Mark went above and beyond to ensure our stay was as enjoyable as possible. They were attentive and responsive while still respecting our privacy entirely. The barn was beautifully decorated for Christmas in a subtle yet festive manner, which was especially meaningful for us with a 2-year-old in tow. We will undoubtedly be returning.

We could not have asked for a nicer place to stay. Lovely views, is very quiet, and is in an area with wonderful dark skies at night. The Barn provides very comfortable accommodation for 4 and is very well fitted out with all the appliances you could need. The owners could not have been more helpful and pleasant. We thoroughly recommend it.
