Overview
Property code: BN368

A romantic woodland retreat for two, Nestled in a tranquil woodland haven beside the gentle flow of the River Usk, this enchanting cottage offers the perfect escape for couples seeking romance, relaxation, and nature’s embrace. Set on the edge of the breathtaking Brecon Beacons National Park (Bannau Brycheiniog), it’s a place where time slows, allowing you to unwind in complete serenity. Stroll through the charming village nearby, or simply savor the peaceful solitude of your private retreat.

The cottage itself is a cosy blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Curl up in front of the crackling wood burner, nestled on the sofa with a glass of wine and a favourite film. The country-style kitchen, with its original flagstone floors and Belfast sink, is perfect for preparing intimate meals to enjoy by candlelight. A luxurious freestanding roll-top bath awaits in the stylish bathroom, inviting you to soak your cares away. Upstairs, the romantic king-size bedroom, adorned with soft linens and timeless furnishings, overlooks the woodland, offering a dreamy space to wake up to nature’s whispers.

Step outside to explore 200 acres of picturesque woodland, or relax in your own secluded garden terrace, where a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine can be enjoyed in the fresh countryside air. Dine under the stars with a BBQ or simply bask in the peaceful surroundings.

For those who love a blend of adventure and romance, scenic walks lead from your doorstep—wander along riverside trails, discover medieval castles, or lose yourselves in the stunning landscapes of the Brecon Beacons. After a day of exploring, return to the warmth of your private retreat, where love and tranquillity await.

This is one of my favourite cottages I've stayed at. The pictures don't do it justice. The cottage is situated in its own private woodland and peaceful surroundings.

Clean, authentic cottage located in peacful woodland. Most comfortable bed we have slept in in all of the cottages we have previously stayed in. Fresh, crisp bed linen also a plus. Friendly local people in Brecon. Unfortunately had lots of rain during our stay so lots of mud around, but didn't stop us exploring the area.

An absolute gem of a cottage, remote, comfortable and extremely cozy, the underfloor heating was a dream. So nice to stay somewhere so peaceful with lovely walks close by and also within driving distance, after years of cottage holidays up and down the country this one is most definitely our favourite so far.

If youre lucky enough to book this cottage you are in for a real treat. Set with in a private forest and away from the general public the location is outstanding.

A lovely, cosy cottage in an amazing location. Handy for lots of walking, and a wonderful location to relax after an active day. Lots of wildlife, especially birds, in the local area. Brecon is handy for shopping, beer and eating out. The cottage stairs are steep, but the handrail is helpful. Walks in the local woods are a must, and the Ghurka TraiRead morel route into Brecon is a great alternative to walking the lanes (during the day). Hide
