A charming 17th-century stone cottage in a tranquil location, perfect for couples or families looking to really escape the hustle and bustle and get back to nature.
A charming, traditional cottage tucked away alongside a mountain stream, this is the perfect place to stay with your family of four, or as a couple. You’ll be in the perfect spot to explore the Brecon Beacons on foot or by bike with the Taff Trail, Henry Vaughan Walk and other routes right on your doorstep.
An entrance porch leads into the country kitchen with an antique pine dresser, along with a dining table and chairs. Equipped with all you may need to rustle up a snack or a more formal meal, this room has an electric double oven, a microwave and an American-style fridge freezer. The conservatory is a truly delightful space to sit and watch the world go by, with an abundance of wildlife to spot including a range of birds and animals in the garden. The sitting room is bursting with character with exposed brickwork and beams, making this a super space to unwind on the comfortable sofas while the wood burner warms the room. The bathroom is located on this level and has a bath, hand-held shower and WC. From the kitchen, steep traditional cottage-style stairs wind around the back of the fireplace up to the first floor, where you’ll find the first of two restful and spacious double bedrooms, each with an additional single bed. The second of these rooms is accessed via a further cottage-style stone spiral staircase, found coming off the living room.
Step outside into the garden and soak up the beautiful natural environment around you. Take a seat on the garden furniture and fire up the BBQ for an evening of al fresco drinks and dining. There is a designated parking space for one car with additional parking available nearby.
Talybont-on-Usk is 1 mile away with its tranquil reservoir, wonderful woods and cascading waterfalls. The village also has a couple of pubs and some shops too so you aren’t far away from amenities. For a wider variety of shops and restaurants, visit the cathedral town of Brecon just 7 miles away. Plenty of walking routes are available on your doorstep, the Talybont Circular is a popular trail and passes the pretty river. If you fancy a real challenge, take the demanding hike up Pen y Fan (13 miles), the highest peak in South Wales.
