This spectacular family home is set deep in the Welsh countryside, surrounded by waterfalls, woodlands, and grazing sheep. The idyllic setting will inspire you to get out and explore, with a multitude of walking routes directly from the property. You’ll also be just 4 miles from the vibrant market town of Brecon. The property sleeps 14 guests and welcomes extra guests in tents within the grounds, making it ideal for large family get-togethers and celebrations with friends. Enjoy dinner parties at the vast dining table, share stories around the roaring open fire, or dine alfresco and take in the jaw-dropping views across the national park.

The former barn is full of character, with spectacular oak beams, exposed stonework, and flagstone flooring. The quirky living areas are set over several levels, with steps connecting the kitchen/diner, snug, and lounge. After dinner, retire to the cosy area for a little cwtch by the open fire or congregate in the ginormous lounge to play games or watch a film on the TV/DVD. When it’s time for bed, retire to one of the bedrooms, which include two doubles, one twin, and a mezzanine level with six single beds (there is also a sofa bed in the lounge). Outside, unwind in your sheltered seating area; fire up the BBQ, sit back, relax, and soak up the peace and tranquillity.

You’ll find plenty to entertain everyone at Llangorse Lake (9 miles). The largest lake in Wales is surrounded by a patchwork of fields and is a fabulous place for walking. You can also hire a variety of vessels, including kayaks and paddleboards, to get out on the water. The lively town of Brecon has an exciting calendar of events throughout the year and boasts a splendid array of eateries serving local dishes and delicacies.

This property suited our group of 12 cyclists just right. It's up a very steep narrow road from Brecon and then down an umade farmer's track into a superbly peaceful idyll in the heart of the Brecons. There was plenty of room for us to mingle and chill and to eat together at the long trestle table. Beautiful walk up to Pen y Fan from right outside,Read more and some superb Welsh hills to ride to (Devil's Staircase, Black Mountain, Devil's Elbow, Gospel Pass, The Tumble). We'll hope to come back next year, once our legs have recovered! Hide

We had SUCH a lovely time here. We were able to not use the car for most of our holiday doing amazing walks from the door. It was amazingly beautiful and very few people. The barn was lovely and warm and comfortable. Thank you- felt like a proper break to get up and go hiking each day.

Had a lovely 4 night break, the cottage is great for large groups there were 2 family's in our group and it was extremely comfortable, I'd really recommend it for any large groups. Roads leading down to it are a bit narrowand quite bumpy in places use your second car if possible.
