  • Impressive 18th-century Welsh longhouse with panoramic views and 4 acres of glorious grounds
  • Original features combine with homely comforts, offering a charming property for large groups
  • The perfect base for walkers, with the Black Mountains and surrounding Brecon Beacons at your door
Property code: OC-H30349

Nestled in the stunning Brecon Beacons National Park at the base of the majestic Black Mountains, this magnificent 18th-century home is the ultimate getaway for families and groups of friends, including your four-legged companions. This charming retreat is bursting with rustic character and rural charm, sitting on 4 acres of grounds with trails leading straight into the hills for tail-wagging walks to remember.

The open-plan lounge/diner is the social hub of the house, where you can relax in style on plush seating, warmed by the wood burner, or enjoy a movie night. Hungry explorers will love the farmhouse-style kitchen, fully equipped for whipping up hearty meals including treats for any wagging tails in tow. A utility room provides space for drying wet coats and wiping down paws. After a day of exploring, seven cosy bedrooms promise a restful night. On the ground floor, a wheelchair-accessible double room with an en-suite wet room is perfect for guests with mobility needs. A family shower room and separate cloakroom complete this level. Upstairs, you’ll find six more bedrooms: two king-size rooms (one with an en-suite shower room), a double, a twin and two snug singles. These are served by a well-appointed family bathroom and a separate shower room. For those seeking a quiet moment, a charming reading room provides a peaceful retreat. Outside, your furry friends can roam freely while you enjoy the breathtaking views from the lawn or relax on the bench seating. A covered patio with a BBQ and outdoor furniture is perfect for al fresco evenings. The expansive grounds provide plenty of room for both children and pups to play, while the gravelled driveway offers ample parking for all.

Take a scenic stroll to the nearby dog-friendly pub (500 metres), ideal for a post-walk refreshment. Adventurous hounds can explore Llangorse Lake (5.5 miles) or tackle the nearby climb up Mynydd Troed (2 miles). For a gentler day out, head to the village of Crickhowell (8.5 miles) and ramble the pretty streets lined with shops and tempting tea rooms. Bookworms in the group will adore a trip to Hay-on-Wye, the “Town of Books,” famous for its enchanting array of bookstores, many of which welcome four-legged friends through their door.

Lovely cottage in a superb location. Great for local walks. Especially good for larger groups. Having the type 2 charger is a real help if you've got an EV, although there are also a few chargers at the car park in Talgarth. The cottage is well maintained.

Maybe the most perfect place I stayed at. None of the group wanted to leave. The home is beautiful and cozy, has everything you may need and I very warmly recommend it!

We were a group of 11 staying for 3 nights. The house was very well equipped for a large group. Plenty of toilets, ample en-suites and bathrooms, and plenty of hot water. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils. We would definitely stay again.

Probably rate as my favourite holiday in the UK so far, outstanding location, outstanding views, peace and quiet Every day. Communication was fantastic with hosts, property was more than enough for us, 7 adults, 2 kids, 1 toddler. Close enough for plenty of places to visit, remote enough from city life. Sincerely hope to stay here again.

Absolutely beautiful cottage in a quiet area amazing for walking sight seeing. The pub across the road Dinas Castle Inn was great for food and drink if you didn't want to cook so that was a welcome change with very friendly staff. The cottage facilities were excellent gas bbq and lovely seating area walking was amazing around had a walk up MynyddRead more Troed a hill walk quite steep at times took around an hour to get to the top I am not an experienced mountain walker by any means but the views at the top were totally worth it. We are planning to return next year to this cottage my family loved it Hide

Well equipped house suitable for a larger party with plenty of parking and extensive grounds (although hilly). Great walks from the house. Friendly and responsive owners / housekeeper. Unusual and interesting sound system for the house with CDs and records available to play - not to everyone's taste so maybe bring some of your own music?
