If it’s charm you’re after, look no further than this picture-perfect rural retreat in the Brecon Beacons National Park. Forming part of an elegant 18th-century home, this lovingly restored wing has all the components for a romantic getaway from its large wood burner for cosy nights in with a bottle of wine, to its sunny terrace for sizzling summer BBQs. With so much to see and do for the keen adventurer to the laid-back wanderer, set out on foot to take on the beguiling Black Mountains, pick up a pastry at the delicatessen in nearby Talgarth or paddle along the peaceful River Wye in a canoe.
Inside, find space, light and an abundance of character in the open-plan kitchen/dining area that was designed with entertaining in mind. Tucked under a mezzanine floor, the stylish kitchen area contains all the essentials for rustling up tasty meals for two. Afterwards, retreat into the lounge to relax and unwind surrounded by eclectic artwork while the wood burner crackles away nearby. With an en-suite shower room, calming decor and skylights set into a sloping ceiling, the double bedroom is a welcoming haven to retire to at the end of the day. Outside, a delightful terrace offers a peaceful and private spot for relaxing with a cup of coffee in the mornings, while the beautifully maintained walled garden beyond, shared with the owner, makes for a romantic morning stroll.
Set at the foot of the Black Mountains, this delightful property is an excellent choice for couples who enjoy a stroll or two. Join the footpath near your door to head up into the mountains themselves, passing through forests carpeted with vibrant wildflowers. The River Wye (7 miles) has plenty to offer, from scenic riverside walks to fishing, canoeing and swimming. Meanwhile, Hay-on-Wye (8.5 miles) is a must whether you are a literary lover or not. Closer to home, amble to the small and unspoiled town of Talgarth (1 mile) where you will find a local butcher, delicatessen, working mill and a bakery.
