Despite its compact size, this cottage is fully equipped, providing a cosy retreat after a day exploring the Welsh countryside. The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need for a self-catering holiday. In the lounge/diner, the two-seater sofas, complemented by a coal effect gas fire, create an ideal space for unwinding and watching a film or sharing a meal at the table and chairs. Upstairs, discover a double bedroom and a second bedroom with a twin bed and a trundle bed for an additional guest if needed. The colourfully tiled bathroom completes the internal layout. Outside you’ll find an enclosed stone-paved patio, perfect for catching the early morning sun, with secure bike storage.

Crickhowell, positioned along the picturesque River Usk, is an ideal hub for outdoor enthusiasts, offering excellent cycling and walking opportunities in the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons. Cross the historic bridge to the adjacent village of Llangattock (1.5 miles), where the Brecon and Monmouth Canal with its newly restored towpath awaits—a perfect route for cycling or a leisurely stroll. Conquer the heights of The Sugar Loaf, The Blorenge, Table Mountain, and Llangattock Mountain, then return to one of the many local watering holes to quench your thirst. Enjoy fishing on the River Usk or engage in nearby activities like pony trekking and caving. Indulge in the diverse menus of gastropubs and restaurants, and explore the locally owned shops.

The cottage is very near the centre of Crickhowell, which is blessed with plenty of great restaurants. The cottage has off road parking and is centrally located for lots of interesting places to visit and fantastic walks. The cottage suffered from traffic noise but wasnt too bad after early evening. Whilst we dined out the kitchen had everything neRead moreeded to home cook. The cottage is a little outdated and probably needs a bit of TLC, that said we enjoyed our stay in Crickhowell and will return. Hide
