  • Picturesque views across water meadows and the River Usk
Property code: OC-BN134

Experience the best of both worlds in this magnificent property, which has a rural setting, yet is just 0.5 miles from the centre of Brecon. Sleeping five guests, the detached house makes the perfect couples’ retreat, as well as being ideal for small families. The property’s piece de resistance is its immaculate garden, where you can unwind and admire the far-reaching views. The surrounding area is a haven for walkers, with routes from your doorstep deep into the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park. The house has been lovingly furnished, with a fine collection of furniture, well-stocked bookshelves, and gorgeous artwork. The property has a quaint sense of style, with floral and gingham fabrics in the living areas and bedrooms. Steps lead to the reception hall of the period stone property and into the light and bright kitchen area. Rustle up a tasty meal from ingredients collected on your travels, to enjoy at the round table in the bay window. After dinner, get cosy in the lounge in front of the warming wood burner, to read a book or gaze out the window at the glorious view across the water meadows. French doors take you to the beautiful, enclosed garden, which is laid to lawn and has a patio area for al fresco dining. It’s easy to have a car-free holiday at this property, setting out on foot for memorable walks along the River Usk or Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal, followed by a delicious lunch at one of the many independent cafes or restaurants in Brecon. Alternatively, head to the Canal Basin, where you can hire a canal boat to get a whole new perspective on the landscape. Picturesque Hay-on-Wye makes a lovely day out, especially for book lovers, and is just 16 miles from the property.

An amazing find, what a fantastic place to stay. The house is spacious and comfortable, the location is brilliant for the town and yet you feel as though you are in a remote location with the river and distant hills visible from the garden. We spent so much time over breakfast in the garden, watching the birds darting and looking at the green hilRead morelside. Superb too for access to Pen y Fan, just a 15 minute drive to get to the car park. We didn't want to go home when the time came to leave, I can see us coming back, I can understand the previous reviewer who had been five times. Hide

Short walk into town. Easy to drive to ,other locations, without always going through town. We were not short of any equipment . Our son and daughter could wash cycling and walking clothes.

A special house with an interesting history. The location was ideal for the town, yet we had stunning views of the countryside and the river. The house was kitted out with everything we could ask for. We would definitely recommend.

Quiet location with a short stroll across the river bridge into the town was very useful leaving the car parked at the house. Recommend the Art gallery and library, the heritage trail, Cathedral and canalside walk.

This was our fourth stay at 'Dinas Lodge' and we still love it as much as on our first visit. The location is perfect - on the edge of Brecon but within a couple of minutes walk to the centre. The house is spacious and very comfortable and we spent a lot of time if the huge and beautifully maintained garden - thanks to Duncan!. The River Usk alongsRead moreide offers lovely walks, as does the footpath on the other side of the house. We'll probably return for a fifth time next year to 'our' Dinas Lodge. Hide

This is a beautiful and homely property with amazing views of the river. The decor is good quality, traditional chintz, which was lovely and suited the character of the house well. We loved having dinner in the cosy kitchen when the wood burner was on. The beds were super comfortable and we all slept really well. The garden was lovely and the walksRead more along the river from the house were beautiful, with easy access to the canal and theatre area. The property had some lovely books to read and brows Hide
