Hidden at the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park, this pretty property is ideal for coming home to, whether that’s after a day of adventurous mountain climbing or quiet village exploring.
Hidden in the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park, this stylishly-presented cottage is a fantastic choice for four walkers and a faithful four-legged friend. With underfloor heating, an open-plan living space, warming wood burner and enclosed garden with pretty stream and access to the owner’s trampoline and play area, this is a paradise for grown-ups, children and dogs alike. If you can tear yourselves away from this environmentally-friendly hideaway, explore the Welsh town of Brecon (2 miles), follow the Taff Trail on foot or bicycle or even take on the mighty Pen y Fan, just 0.5 miles from the front door.
Step inside out of the wilderness to relax in the light and airy open-plan living space, which has been lovingly decorated with homely features including handcrafted floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and cosy soft furnishings. The chic kitchen area overlooks rolling countryside – the best distraction for anyone on washing up duty – while the cosy lounge area boasts a warming wood burner, perfect for warming up chilly feet and paws after long walks. While adults enjoy a long hot soak in the bath before snuggling up in one of the two bedrooms – one king-size, one double. Children and pets can play safely in the pretty enclosed garden although there is a stream so please be mindful of youngsters. There’s access to a trampoline and play area in the owner’s garden.
Once you have taken on the magnificent Pen y Fan mountain with your energetic pal in tow, explore the Welsh town of Brecon, which boasts a majestic cathedral and plenty of unique shops. The Taff Trail offers 55 miles of forest, railway and riverside paths – perfect for walking or cycling and with plenty of picnic stops along the way. More family fun can be had at Cantref Adventure Farm (3 miles), with its paddle boats, riding centre and tractor and trailer rides.
