We had a great stay here. The apartment was really comfortable, spacious and felt very homely. There were four adults in our group and we had loads of room, so it would easily be suitable for the full six guests. It's a great base for exploring the area, with restaurants, an ice cream parlour and a traditional cinema all within walking distance.

We had a lovely stay at Usk View. The accommodation was spotless, warm and homely. Kitchen is well equipped. Very comfy beds. The owners left us some nice treats. A great base to discover the Brecons. We recommend a visit to the Gurkha Corner, delicious food. Highly recommend Usk View and thank you for a lovely stay.

Great cottage, very largely well thought through. Modern spacious well equipped and clean, useful and thoughtful welcome packs, and of course the view of the river.

Lovely, spacious apartment. We are a family of five (youth are 15-20 years old) and this was a good size for us. There was also storage for our bikes. Very well-equipped kitchen - we managed a roast with no problems! Great location - moments walk from shops and pubs, and the cinema, for which complimentary tickets were provided.

The apartment was a great place for an autumn break, being close to the centre, but quiet and with a beautiful view from the lounge. Perfect for a car-free holiday, we used public transport to get to Brecon (train and bus) and to visit Hay-on-Wye and LLandrindod. The town is very compact and nowhere is far from the apartment. We saw a show at the tRead moreheatre and, on other days, had lunch and breakfast at its cafe. We cooked more meals in than anticipated and the kitchen was easy to use. Hide
