Overview
Property code: BN111

Full of character, this quirky one-bedroom apartment boasts some truly magnificent views. Star gaze by night, dine alfresco on the balcony or head off to tackle the summit of Pen y Fan.

Soak up the spectacular scenery from this one-bedroom apartment nestled within the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park. Sleeping two guests, the exquisite holiday home makes a magical, romantic retreat for a couple seeking to get away from it all and lose themselves in this enchanting corner of wales. From here, follow footpaths and trails through picturesque surroundings, potter in the shops of Brecon, 4 miles away, or Crickhowell, 14.5 miles away, or simply savour the eclectic décor of the apartment or take in the leafy views from the balcony.

Climb 26 external steps up to the top floor of the building then let yourselves into your unique hideaway. Wander into the kitchen to make a cup of fresh coffee at the machine then pause at the table for a while to enjoy it. Prepare delicious dinners for two in here as well. Amble into the inviting lounge to settle on the comfortable seating and either take in the verdant vistas or find your favourite programme on the TV with Freeview. Take time to gaze up at the stars through the telescope before heading off to your welcoming, king-size bedroom for the night. Wake up to indulge in a hot shower then take breakfast out on the balcony on fine days. Afterwards, carry your coffee out on to the shared lawn discuss your plans for the day. This property is not suitable for children, infants and those with mobility issues due to the steep access steps.

Decide on a visit to Llangorse Lake, 7 miles away, to walk along the shores or go rowing, kayaking or fishing out on the water. Keen climbers might like to attempt Pen y Fan, the highest mountain in southern Britain and approximately 3.5 miles from the apartment. Have a day out to the famous book town of Hay-on-Wye, 18 miles away, with its fascinating independent and second-hand stores and many cafes, pubs and restaurants.

The Top floor of Cantref House made for a very comfortable two weeks holiday. We felt right at home. We had great weather so made good use of the balcony but if it was a little windy the kitchen was a nice sunny place also. Sadly we were never awake late enough to use the telescope. The location was very quiet, lots of bird song and a cheerful CockRead moreerell! Plenty of walking nearby and from the doorstep. I would definitely recommend staying here. The welcome basket is by far the best we've had. Hide

The property was lovely and in the most beautiful location. Mrs Jenkins was so nice and had left all sorts of little extra touches that really made the difference (home made bread and welsh cakes and fresh flowers from the garden) You can walk out to the hills from the door should you wish (be fit enough and have the required gear) but there are soRead more many places to walk within easy driving distance you will be spoilt for choice. Would highly recommend if you want a peaceful getaway holiday. Hide

Lovely welcome from Sheila and Peter. Accommodation was extremely well equipped. It was so relaxing sitting outside with a cup of tea watching a real variety of bird including a greater spotted woodpecker and a Kite ! The walking from the accommodation was well marked and relatively easy - a mixture of fields., bridleways out onto open hillsides orRead more joining the Brecon canal. A couple of harder walks within easy access including Pen y Far. Great accommodation and lovely area. See you again. Hide
