  • Perfect for a romantic get-away-from-it-all break 
Property code: 75206

A delightful and thoughtfully laid out lodge set in tree-lined grounds looking out to magnificent mountains. Ideal for couples, with lots to see and do if you can tear yourself away from the property.

Neither style nor functionality are sacrificed in this unique lodge property, an ever-comfortable base for your Brecon Beacons retreat. Boasting bi-fold doors and far-reaching views out to the Brecon mountains, this property offers a wonderful space for any walking couple to plan adventure-filled days ahead and rest weary feet at the end of each and every day. You’re even welcome to bring along one dog for your stay, ideal for a romantic retreat which wouldn’t be the same without your furry third wheel.

 

This characterful lodge features classic wood panelling to the exterior and is surrounded by mature greenery, an instant reminder of your rural location. The open-plan living space is flooded with light thanks to the French door. s, enjoy breakfast alfresco on the patio or sit down together and admire the view. The feature map wall adds a touch of charm to this space, as does the ornate tiling in the kitchen. On an evening you have the option of curling up by the wood burner with the Smart TV on or firing up your very own private hot tub. Either way, eco-friendly toiletries await you in the contemporary bathroom for soaking your aching muscles.

 

With a local pub, convenience store and the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal running through (all 0.5 miles), Gilwern is a wonderful village for enjoying a Beacon’s retreat. Nearby towns of Crickhowell (3.5 miles) and Abergavenny (5 miles) all well worth a visit, as is the village of Blaenavon with its fascinating coal museum (5 miles). Of course, the area is also awash with stunning walking and cycling routes. Explore the Black Mountains above and challenge yourselves to summit the Sugar Loaf (8 miles) or Waun Fach (11 miles) mountains.

Great property in an ideal location for exploring South Wales. Property is well equipped and certainly doesn't have the typical lodge/cabin feel. There is limited storage space, however this is just about manageable for short stays. Although it shares land with the owners, there is still a feeling of privacy due to the layout etc.
