A traditional cottage set deep in the Brecon Beacons National Park, a perfect base for exploring the mountain ranges, lakes, canals, places of historic interest and vibrant market towns.

Nestled amongst the stunning Welsh countryside at the north-eastern tip of the Brecon Beacons National Park, this charming country cottage is a great base from which to explore the area’s natural beauty. It’s the perfect location for families and their four-legged friends, with a number of walks from your doorstep and beyond. Situated within the village of Velindre, the cottage occupies a peaceful rural position, with the convenience of a pub in the village itself, and shops in neighbouring Talgarth (3 miles).

After admiring the cottage’s picture-perfect exterior, step inside where you’ll find an abundance of rural charm with exposed beams, stone fireplaces and flagstone floors all adding character and warmth. The ground floor is home to a cosy lounge with a wood burner – perfect for curling up in front of at the end of a busy day – alongside a kitchen/diner and an additional snug area, all of which are light and airy. Upstairs, there are four well-presented bedrooms, a shower room and a family bathroom whilst, outside, two-legged and four-legged guests alike will love the enclosed garden with its lawn and patio area.

Situated in the foothills of the Black Mountains, one of the Brecon Beacons’ four ranges, you and your canine companions can choose from a range of walks, including the ascent of the highest summit, Waun Fach (28 miles).

For those keen to take to the water, head to Llangorse Lake (8 miles), or for other outdoor activities head to The Black Mountain Activity Centre (2 miles). For a quiet stroll around a market town followed by tea and cake in a dog-friendly café, Hay-on-Wye, Crickhowell and Brecon are worth a visit.

Sunnybank is a most welcoming and cosy cottage with plenty of room for dogs. There is even a fully fenced dog park two minutes walk along the road.

Everything was very acceptable and we had a fantastic week. The only shortfall, and this may sound a little over the top, was that there were not any toilet brushes available!! A lovely holiday, nice weather, wonderful scenery, thank you very much indeed.

Welcoming, charming and well stocked house in beautiful surroundings. A lot of thought has gone into the furnishings, information and equipment which is all of high quality. We felt at home as soon as we stepped in the door. Comfortable beds, sofas and high water pressure in new bathrooms, better than home!! Family friendly but would also be ideal Read morefor an older party. Great location near Hay and other Wye activities. We hope to return. Hide
