Enjoying an enviable location at the foot of the Skirrid, this beautifully hand crafted shepherds hut has a private hot tub and fire pit, just perfect for those looking for a little adventure.

Take a romantic break at this pretty shepherd’s hut at the base of one of the Brecon Beacon’s most recognisable peaks, Skirrid. Spend the day walking the national park and Wye Valley, before soaking away in your own private hot tub. The hut is very well-equipped. A lounge/diner becomes the sleeping area and has a warming wood burner as well as a Smart TV and DAB radio, perfect for cosy nights in together. The main hut has a kettle and toaster, great for breakfast in bed, while a separate hut next door houses a kitchenette. Outside is a warming hot tub and a garden area set aside with a table and chairs as well as a BBQ, so make sure you bring some charcoal for a spot of al fresco dining. The owners also run a tearoom on site where you can pick up some sandwiches or cakes. If you both fancy a hike, you’ll be able to easily access the routes to the top of The Skirrid from here, too. Located on the eastern edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park, you’ll be perfectly situated to escape the hustle and bustle and explore the very best of the countryside here. Abergavenny is just 2.5 miles away with its rich history and eclectic mix of shops, pubs and restaurants. There is a wide range of walking routes around the Brecon Beacons, from challenging hikes to gentle sightseeing strolls. You’ll also be near the River Wye where you can try kayaking, canoeing or stand-up paddleboarding.

A lovely stay and warm welcome from Mike. Pictures dont do the place justice, with a really nice stargazing type terrace above the hot tub. Great facilities and lots of walks nearby, made for a relaxing stay.

What a wonderful find. Better than the pictures on site. Hot tub is actually undercover and more private than photos suggest. Lovely relaxing break, just what we needed. Owners are wonderful! We will return!

A really beautiful place. The owners are amazing, super nice and helpful. Everything was clean and cozy and we were made to feel really welcome. Would definitely reccommend a walk up Skirrid View, it's a bit of a hard trek but the views are well worth it.

A really great week in this beautiful location. An ideal base for relaxing. Only a stones throw away from the Brecon Beacons or the Black Mountains. The team were extremely friendly and accommodating. The hot tub was amazing after a long days trekking, with a glass of wine!
