Set on the banks of a beautiful canal, within easy reach of the Brecon Beacons, this stylish cottage makes for the ultimate getaway for an adventurous group of four and up to two dogs. Tails will soon be wagging, as this accommodation is perfectly placed for long walks and countryside hikes.

Let your pup lead the way into the bright and airy lounge/kitchen/diner, which offers visitors a contemporary twist on a traditional countryside cottage retreat. While your hound stretches its paws and makes itself at home, head outside into the enclosed patio area where you can sit back and relax on the garden furniture or take a dip in your own private hot tub – bliss! Feeling hungry? Head inside and prepare a scrummy dinner for your pack in the modern kitchen, which is well-equipped with everything you’ll need for a cosy night in. If the gentle snores of your dog send you into an early slumber, head to one of the stylish bedrooms for a good night’s kip. There’s a beautiful double or twin bedroom to choose from and better yet, the entire property is set across one level, so there are no stairs to climb. Completing the accommodation is a swish shower room, with a shower and WC, along with lovely toiletries provided.

If your hound loves the great outdoors then you’ve come to the right place. This stunning cottage is on the edge of a local path that follows a pretty canal with plenty of additional pathways worth exploring. Adventurous groups can reach the Brecon Beacons National Park within 34 miles for an active day walking across the mountain range. Abergavenny, famous for its food festival, is only 8 miles away and has an abundance of wonderful cafes and independent shops for you to sniff out.

This is a really beautiful cottage, in a peaceful location on a farm. We enjoyed the proximity to the canal which we walked our dog along, and also the short walk to a very lovely pub which serves excellent food (The Horseshoe). The hot tub is one of the reasons we chose this cottage, and it is perfect. We had a clear starry night to sit in the tubRead more and gaze at the sky. Highly recommended for a short break to get away from it all. Comfortably big enough for a small family. Hide
