With miles of wild open countryside to explore, this wonderfully uplifting part of Wales is sure to set tails wagging from the word go. Your canine companions can lead the way on walks straight from the doorstep of this delightful four-bedroom converted barn, ideal for outdoor-loving families. The property shares a courtyard with a neighbouring holiday cottage, which can be jointly booked to sleep up to 12 guests in total. After a day of hiking in the glorious Brecon Beacons, soak up the views in style from the outdoor hot tub.
Inside, a light-filled conservatory connects the two barns, while exposed stonework, oak flooring and oak furniture give the property traditional farmhouse appeal. The kitchen/diner is a lovely social space to gather for leisurely breakfasts and family dinners. After meals, fire up the wood burner in the lounge and get warm and snug ready for an evening of TV, or find out who’s top dog with table tennis and pool matches in the shared games barn. Three of the four bedrooms are on the first floor, with one double on the ground floor. Outside, spend quality time playing with your dogs in the large, fenced garden.
Put your best foot or paw forward to explore the dramatic Black Mountain Range or follow the 5-mile circuit south along the Beacons Way through woodland terrain. Stand in the shadow of the majestic Carreg Cennen Castle (4 miles) or explore the Llyn y Fan Fach (8.5 miles), a natural scenic lake surrounded by breathtaking mountain peaks. For a family day out, head to the National Showcaves Centre for Wales (20 miles), where well-behaved dogs can join you on an underground tour of the caverns.
