Set out for an unforgettable holiday in the Brecon Beacons at this warm and welcoming holiday cottage. It’s an enchanting retreat for a family escape or to get away with good friends.

Embark on a rural retreat to the Brecon Beacons and make yourself at home in this charming cottage. Perfect for families with little ones, a trip with friends, and a getaway with your dog, this snug dwelling invites you to relax and unwind post-adventure. A pool table promises to keep the competitive amongst you entertained for hours, whilst those seeking some peace and quiet can snuggle up with a book.

Step inside this characterful cottage and find yourself amongst stylish furnishings, creature comforts and a striking exposed brick wall. The lounge has a range of books and boardgames so you can snuggle up and lose yourself in a good tale, or challenge fellow guests to a game of trivia and see who comes out on top. If a boardgame doesn’t quite cut it, head into the games room for a round of pool. The kitchen is the perfect spot in which to gather and make plans for tomorrow’s adventures. Fresh and bright, cook up a feast and dine together at the table, or if the sun is shining, plate up outside and dine alfresco in the courtyard. Rest weary heads upstairs in one of two bedrooms, both of which have traditional sloping ceilings and are decorated in calming tones, with blankets to keep you extra cosy.

This dwelling sits in the heart of Brecon, a bustling market town full of tasty eateries, quirky shops, and home to the Brecon Canal Basin. Enjoy a day on the water and take to the canal by boat, or venture into the Brecon Beacons National Park and climb to the top of Pen y Fan, the highest peak in South Wales (9 miles). Closer to home, the old iron age hillfort, Pen-y-Crug is less than 2 miles away.

Wow - we were totally amazed and delighted with The Stables. Exceptionally clean, superbly equipped and in a fantastic location. We couldn't have asked for better accomodation. Some may find the parking tight, but with some careful moves, it is fine (we have a large estate car).

Beautifully furnished property, a true home from home, all we needed for a good week away. Loved the decor and the little extras like Sky, Google Nest, pool table, darts just added to our enjoyment. We found the parking fine with a bit of manoeuvring and great to have the parking area. All in all, a lovely stay and didn't want to leave!

Our stay was fantastic - The Stables has been renovated and furnsihed to a really high standard. The only reason I deducted 2 stars from a possible 100% was due to the parking arrangements - which involved requesting a neighbour move his car each time we returned home to access the drive. Getting out without disturbing him was doable in a few tightRead more turns, but entering same way was impossible. The cottage may not have a view but is ideal for accessing the Brecons, pubs, shops and take-aways . Hide
