Located in the heart of the picturesque rural village of Defynnog, this characterful stone cottage makes a fantastic base for family and friends to discover the natural beauty of the northern stretches of the Brecon Beacons National Park.

Beneath the traditional brickwork exterior, you’ll find a haven of rustic charm in the kitchen, which boasts a welcoming country cottage ambience, benefitting from delightful farmhouse-style touches and stunning exposed stonework. Budding chefs will be inspired to cook up a storm to be enjoyed by the whole party seated in the charming dining room. As the evening draws in, unwind in the light-filled lounge on the plush sofa in front of your favourite film on the Smart TV; the roaring wood burner adds both warmth and character. Head upstairs to wash away a long day in the contemporary family shower room before retiring to one of the three restful bedrooms. You’ll find one en-suite king-size, one double and one twin bedroom on offer to choose from. From sunrise to sunset, the peaceful patio garden provides the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or a sundowner as you dine alfresco. Outside, you’ll also find private parking for one car.

Fantastic property and everywhere felt fresh and clean. Very spacious. Nice to have 3 bathrooms, two with showers, one with bath only, and outdoor space. Attentive and responsive very local hosts. Great location for walking especially Pen Y Fan. Cooking facilities are particular to this property, a small convector oven and two induction hob rings pRead morelus a separate microwave. The Aga, powered by biomass pellets, is for heating and hot water as the oven function is discouraged. Would definitely come back again. Response from holidaycottages.co.uk : The owner has taken on the feedback and now added 4 hob rings Hide
