This woodland retreat is straight out of the pages of a storybook and set in the perfect location for daily adventures with your canine companion. Based just 2 miles from Brecon, this charming cottage enjoys a secluded position amongst ancient trees within scampering distance of the River Usk. Pack up a picnic and leave no stick ‘unfetched’, returning to rest weary paws by the fire in your cosy accommodation that has ample sleeping space for three guests and one pup.

Brimming with old-world charm, this property has exposed beams, curved walls and wooden lintels to create a wonderfully snug aesthetic. Underfloor heating will keep your faithful friend toasty on chilly evenings, especially when you are hunkering down in the country-cottage kitchen for tea and cake. Curl up in the lounge by the wood burner with a well-deserved glass of wine and a few tasty treats or indulge in a spot of pampering in the fantastic bathroom with its roll-top bath and walk-in shower. Climbing a set of steep cottage-style stairs will bring you to your sleeping quarters; a spacious bedroom with a king-size bed reached via the landing which also features a handy single bed. Wake up to birdsong and delicious al fresco breakfasts in the small, terraced area, and at dusk, you can toast marshmallows on the BBQ before taking an evening stroll through the natural garden.

Discover enchanted woodland spanning over 200 acres from the comfort of your doorstep, padding the 1.5-mile route to the nearest pub for a slap-up lunch or a nip of something delicious on blustery days. Keen fishermen will delight in the 2 miles of double bank fishing for trout and salmon on the estate or change pace with a busy afternoon in Brecon browsing the independent shops and watching the resident glassblowers in action.

This is a really beautiful traditional cottage, but with all mod cons and comforts. The location is gorgeous and very quiet, lovely views of the mountains, but close to Brecon's amenities.

This is a fantastic cottage in which you can really relax. The setting is superb in a very private woodland up a small hill (the drive is a little adventure). It's really characterful and the renovation here has been done really well. We loved spending time in the lounge with the fire - we were well supplied with firelighters, kindling, logs and maRead moretches. Worth noting the kitchen is well equipped, plenty of trays and pans. The upstairs space is full of character and the bed very comfortable. Hide

Great stay at this lovely cottage situated in a remote location. It was exactly as described, if not, better. We really enjoyed our stay. Very cosey with the log burner alight in the evenings. The kitchen was very well equipped to cope with most cooking requirements. Thank you.

A quiet and peaceful haven convenient to Brecon but at the same time wonderfully isolated in a beautiful woodland setting. A great place not only to unwind and relax but also to explore the Brecon Beacons and surrounding areas.

We had a totally relaxing break and a very real change from our normal routine. I cant think of anything that would improve it and could possibly endanger spoiling the experience.
