Nestled in the foothills of the Brecon Beacons just 2 miles from Brecon, this characterful stone cottage is a superb choice for up to six people seeking a cosy and comfortable base for outdoors adventures. With Pen y Fan around 5 miles away, keen walkers can test themselves on one of Wales's most celebrated peaks, while gentler routes from the doorstep make it equally suitable for relaxed family strolls. Set on an old hill farm with a handful of other holiday cottages, it offers a welcome retreat after days spent in the fresh mountain air.
Spread over three floors, this 200-year-old farm building has been thoughtfully designed to combine space and atmosphere. Its reverse-level design features a striking open-plan living area on the top floor, where soaring ceilings, stone walls and exposed beams and brickwork lend it a rustic yet stylish edge. This sociable hub is well suited for groups, with a lounge area gathered around a Smart TV, a dining table for relaxed meals, and a well-equipped kitchen with all the essentials for easy self-catering. Bedrooms are divided between the two lower levels, giving added privacy for families or friends travelling together. Choose between a master king-size with en-suite, a double with en-suite, and a charming twin which has use of the family bathroom. A private garden framed by open countryside creates a tranquil space for morning coffee or al-fresco feasts on summer evenings with outdoor furniture and parking for two cars adding to the ease.
From gentle riverside strolls to challenging mountain climbs, the Brecon Beacons National Park is a playground for those who love the great outdoors. Follow the River Usk from Brecon into the heart of the park, or cycle or canoe along the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal. Llangorse Lake (9.5 miles) offers more watery adventures, while Brecon town is a hub of tourist activity complete with shops and a range of eateries, and is renowned for its annual Brecon Jazz Festival.
