A characterful, detached stone cottage in a tranquil setting, this property is perfect for couples, friends or a small family seeking a restful getaway with easy access to outdoor activities. Set in the small village of Llandefalle, 8.5 miles from Brecon and 10.5 miles from Hay-on-Wye, this lovely retreat is just 5 miles from the edge of Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, with access to numerous walking and cycling trails. You can walk from the front door onto and across open common land with mown pathways to explore the local area and enjoy far-reaching views across to Pen y Fan.
Enter via the back door into this delightful two-storey cottage, with a striking, rustic, country-style feel and an abundance of original features to admire, including exposed beams and stonework. In the kitchen, you’ll find everything you need to whip up some tasty treats. Wander through to the dining room to eat together and plan tomorrow’s itinerary. From the dining area, move through the welcoming lounge where you can unwind together on the comfortable sofas, chat, settle back with a good book or watch a film on the Smart TV. Upstairs, the rooms have low beams and low door frames. Here, you’ll find two double bedrooms and the family shower room, all with views over the surrounding countryside. Outside, spend sunny afternoons relaxing with your book or a cup of tea in the delightful, enclosed garden with a terrace and outdoor furniture, making it a lovely spot for alfresco dining. There is private parking for two cars.
