Overview
Property code: BN094

With spectacular views of the Brecon Beacons National Park and just 1 mile from Cilycwm village, this charming holiday cottage is perfectly located for exploring. Great for small families or couples.

Brimming with charm and creature comforts, this cosy bolthole is perfectly suited for small families or couples to enjoy a break in the gorgeous Welsh countryside. With mountain views to savour and a plethora of trails to walk, cycle and explore, you’ll be glad to kick back beneath characterful beams in the welcoming lounge after days in the great outdoors.

 

Make your way inside this traditional stone cottage and make yourself at home. The kitchen has all you need to pack up tasty picnics or cook up a storm before plating up in the adjoining dining area. Should the sun shine, make the most of your superb south-facing patio and dine alfresco in the fresh air. Curl up in the snug lounge for cosy evenings in front of the TV or watch your favourite DVD and enjoy a film night before bed. When it’s time to rest your head, make your way upstairs to the two bedrooms, both of which are tranquil rooms in which to drift off and dream. The double is a light space with a pretty window overlooking greenery and the twin has characterful sloping ceilings. Wake up and soak in the tub or freshen up in the shower over the bath in the ground-floor family bathroom.

 

A mile from the sleepy village of Cilycwm, wander to the local pub for a tasty bite to eat or hop in the car and travel 4 miles to the market town of Llandovery where you can browse the charming antique shops. Continue on from Llandovery and find yourself in the magnificent Brecon Beacons National Park where you can summit peaks for panoramic views and wander well-trodden paths which wind their way past tumbling waterfalls and beautiful landscapes.

Ideal location for walkers to explore this beautiful and very quiet part of mid-Wales. The owners were very helpful and welcoming. The heating was easy to operate and enclosed entrance to the cottage makes it easy to deal with muddy clothes and boots. Information was clear and useful..

A very clean nice little cottage, part of a complex with the owners living next door; excellent access by foot to beautiful walking areas. Weather permitting, take a look at the night skies - stunning in the dark! Also great for dog walks! Remarkably, all sustainable- leaning!
