This characterful barn conversion, tucked in a peaceful valley on the grounds of a working farm, is the perfect setting for active family holidays or relaxing celebrations. Handily located within 3 miles of Sennybridge, it is an ideal destination for those who love the outdoors, placing you within easy reach of numerous trails across the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park. Pull on your walking boots and climb nearby Cefn Llechid (2.5 miles): a great family walk with lovely views and the possibility of a picnic by the nearby lake.

Beneath the charming exterior is a delightful rural retreat perfectly tailored to socialising and boasting fabulous decor combining traditional features with contemporary elegance. Leave your muddy boots in the drying room and relax in the impressive open-plan living space. The large corner sofa is perfect for lounging while watching a favourite film. Mealtimes are a social affair thanks to the farmhouse-style kitchen and matching table, perfectly equipped for creating sumptuous feasts. Enjoy some competitive fun in the games area. Completing the ground floor is an elegant king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower. Upstairs is a bathroom and shower room, both stylishly finished and five bedrooms: four double (2 with en-suite shower rooms) and a family room with two double beds. Head out to the enclosed garden with plenty of lawn space for children to play. The patio is ideal for summer drinks and tasty BBQ suppers, rounded off with toasting marshmallows over the fire pit. There’s also a hot tub, the ultimate treat for any staycation.

We had a superb family weekend here, with 10 adults and 2 small children. We loved the hugely sociable layout, comfy sofas, fire, lashings of hot water, location, and we really enjoyed the hot tub. There is plenty of parking. House layout is simple and effective, decor plain and uncluttered, we felt very at home. 4 inches of snow was a massive bonuRead mores, and the whole of the final approach road and yard had been cleared and gritted for us. Thank you for the space for a very memorable get together. Hide

A lovely and generally well equipped house, which was ideal for an extended family stay for 13 of us. The location was beautiful and the beds and furniture were comfortable. The outdoor hot tub was a treat which we all really enjoyed. A nice enclosed garden and gated drive area are good for outdoor sitting, eating and play.

Very spacious cottage in lovely, tranquil location. Quality and range of kitchen equipment may disappoint for large groups intending mainly to prepare meals & eat together at the cottage.
