  • Elegant country cottage in the heart of the Brecon Beacons, perfect for hikers and cyclists
  • Relax in the gorgeous bedroom with its own balcony overlooking the lush gardens
  • Delightful garden with established shrubs and meadow areas that envelops the house
Property code: BN157

Thanks to its sublime location on the northern fringes of the Brecon Beacons, this charming cottage provides the perfect setting for a romantic getaway. You and your canine companions can stride out on a variety of walks before settling in front of the wood burner for the evening. The property even has its own balcony, the ideal spot for a morning coffee or chilled glass of wine.

 

Set within the grounds of the owner’s home, this elegant country cottage features an open-plan layout downstairs. It has a bright, airy feel thanks to light streaming in through the French doors that open to the outside world. The unusual leafy garden wraps itself around the house, with steps leading from the highest point down to the driveway or you can walk down the sloping lawns back to the French doors. After a day bounding around the Welsh countryside, soak up the views or sit out on the benches dotted around to make the most of following the sun around. Alternatively, take a leisurely stroll down to the local pub after freshening up in the ground-floor shower room. Upstairs, nestled in the eaves of the property, is the spacious king-size bedroom, with a door that opens on to a balcony overlooking the garden.

 

With ears pricked at the prospect of exploration, take your pups for a walk around Llangorse Lake, just 2.5 miles from the property. With the Black Mountains as a backdrop, you’ll be bowled over by the scenery even if your pooches are too busy sniffing the flora and fauna to notice. The bustling market town of Brecon is 5 miles away. It marks the start of the Taff Trail, which runs for 55 miles all the way to Cardiff Bay.

Lovely and secluded and the large garden a bonus with a dog. So quiet which we loved but very remote from a shop, garage etc. Perfect base for walkers.

A lovely comfortable cottage in a great location to explore the Brecon Beacons and Wye Valley. The cottage has been renovated to a high standard and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owners were really helpful and friendly. We went with our dog who enjoyed all the mountain walks as well as exploring significant amounts of the MonmRead moreouthshire and Brecon canal nearby. We had a lovely active week here, but equally it is perfect to use as a base to relax and watch the birds. Hide

We had a lovely weeks stay in Finch Cottage. Owner Janet made us feel welcome on our arrival. It and everything in it was perfectly clean, with tasteful decor and very comfortable furniture. Care goes into the management of Finch Cottage which is lacking in many company maintained properties. We felt cosy in the cold weather and appreciated the wooRead mored burner. The garden was ideal for for our dog, as were the quiet roads around the cottage (with friendly neighbours). Hide
