This traditional detached cottage, surrounded by countryside, is slightly elevated offering breathtaking views across the Black Mountains and Llangorse Lake. Pet friendly and perfect for exploring the National Park, it is situated on the edge of the small hamlet of Talyllyn which is 1 mile from Llanfihangel Talyllyn, near Brecon. The area is perfect for outdoor pursuits; you can hire a rowing boat, kayak, Canadian canoe, pedalo, stand up paddleboard or fishing boat and have fun on Llangorse Lake, the largest natural lake in South Wales, along with activities including climbing, mountain biking and horse riding throughout the area (3 miles). For slower-paced days, there are some lovely market towns such as Hay-on-Wye, the town of books, Crickhowell and Brecon, all within a 13.5-mile radius of the property.

The cottage is situated along a peaceful country lane, enjoying a rural location with enclosed gardens overlooking the Black Mountains. Guests benefit from the traditional porch to the rear of the cottage, which provides the perfect space for muddy boots and coats after a day out and about. From here you will step into the kitchen, well equipped with everything you may need for preparing meals during your stay. A doorway opens into the cosy lounge with low ceilings and original fireplace; here you can relax on the comfortable seating, making the most of the Smart TV which also includes freesat, selection of good books, local information, and board games. A generously sized garden room provides space for dining with a table suitable for six guests and additional seating where you can enjoy garden views. A cottage staircase offers access to the first floor where guests have the choice of three bedrooms, all of which enjoy views across the countryside. There is a king-size bedroom, a twin bedroom and a single bedroom. A shared bathroom with shower over bath and WC and a downstairs WC complete the accommodation.
Outside, guests are free to relax within the enclosed gardens, enjoying views across to Llangorse Lake. There is a table and chairs for dining, along with a charcoal BBQ.

Wonderful place to stay, it was like a home from home made even better with the added bonus of being very dog friendly. We actually spent more time than planned just relaxing in the conservatory watching the dogs wandering around, in & out and playing you snooze you loose with the residents dog basket. Easy driving distance for Pen Y Fan walking oRead morer just a stroll up the local hill top. Hide
