This was one of the best equipped properties we've ever stayed at. The central location in Crickhowell was perfect to use as a base for our long weekend in South Wales and the converted chapel made an ideal base for our group. Nine of us stayed there and three others were also able to join us to eat and socialise because of the wonderfully spaciousRead more open plan kitchen and living room on the top floor. We definitely hope to return, thank you. Hide

Westcombe House was perfect for our special family trip to attend a wedding nearby. The layout of the cottage is very good with the kitchen, diner and lounge on the top floor offering great communal space and fab views of the hills too! There is plenty to do in Crickhowell and the surrounding area, hiking to the Table Mountain is highly recommendedRead more. Tower Street is very narrow but luckily there are 2 private parking spaces outside the cottage. Very well equipped and plenty of fridge/freezer space Hide

A lovely spacious conversion that was ideal for our party of 8 ranging from early 20s to 80+ . Being situated in the middle of the town it was great for going out and not have to worry about driving. It is also quiet being in a small street off the main area of town, although Crickhowell is not a wild place!! The property was very well equipped; ifRead more we'd stayed longer would have tried out the pasta machine. Would definitely book again. No problems with parking 3 cars. Hide

Great accommodation and the perfect base for exploring. The property is clean and has everything you need and more for a great stay. We enjoyed the table tennis and darts.
