  • A single-storey annexe perfect for romantic getaways
  • Spend evenings in the pretty garden with wonderful views across the valley
  • Hop on the local mountain bike trail and cycle towards Painscastle, following a 17-mile circular route
Property code: BN201

Sitting high on the hillside admire the views as you laze away in the garden of an afternoon having spent the morning out and about exploring the magic of the Brecon Beacons National Park.

Embrace the natural environment of the Wye Valley, living alongside farmyard animals, wildflowers and hilly terrain. This ground-floor annexe next to the owner’s farmstead is ideal for a couple or solo traveller looking to escape the stresses of everyday life. If you own a horse, your four-hoofed friend doesn’t have to miss out on the fun as it’s welcome to stay in the on-site stables. Saddle up and head out for a ride in the Brecon Beacons National Park. If you don’t have a horse, a walk on two legs in this beautiful part of Wales is just as rewarding.

The property’s open-plan living space offers a warm atmosphere and home comforts all in one place. Relax on the comfortable sofa with a magazine, or plan your next day’s activities at the dining table as you tuck into a freshly prepared supper made with local ingredients. On a warm day, fling open the patio doors and step out on to the decked area to bask in the sunshine while enjoying a glass of something fizzy. The stylish bedroom decorated in neutral colours can be made up as either a king-size or twin room, and there’s a shower room for when you need to freshen up. Outside, you'll find a garden with decked area and fire pit. There is a shed/ utility room with washing machine, tumble dryer, sink, shower and WC that's ideal for walkers.

The property is about 6.5 miles from Builth Wells, where you can enjoy a riverside walk around the perimeter of the town, taking in its castle remains and impressive bridges along the way. Further afield, see how flour is made at Talgarth Mill (13 miles) or drive to the Victorian spa town of Llanwrtyd Wells (19 miles). You could even time your visit for the famous world bog-snorkelling championships.

Lovely cottage. Well equipped (no dishwasher but we knew that!). Telly and wifi work well (when the builders haven't turned the booster off). Middle of nowhere, but lots of places to drive to. Great pub in village (2.4 miles away). Friendly and good beer. Exploring footpaths was not a success: overgrown with thorns and malevolent dogs on other farmRead mores. Hide

Lovely friendly and helpful owners. The cottage was supplied with everything needed for our holiday. The bed was amazing and the shower was pretty good too. We were supplied with start up groceries like milk sugar butter tea and coffee which was very helpful.

The cottage is stunning, has gorgeous views over the valley. The outside facilities are lovely, and if youre a cyclist or horse rider, then the separate shower in the little annexe would be so useful. The owner was very approachable, and also left us in peace. Ideally placed to explore both Builth Wells and Hay on Wye.

A lovely cottage, well off the beaten track, well presented throughout. Great views and amazing scenery. Be prepared for a number of farm noises that are different - the usual sheep, cows, but there are also ducks, hens and guinea fowl!

A very nice self-contained extension to the owner's property, on their working farm. It is very quiet, despite being on a working farm. There are various dogs, cats, chickens and pea hens wandering around outside the accommodation. Access is via a single-track road of about 1.5 miles but there are passing places and it is a very quiet road, withoutRead more a lot of traffic. We couldn't get any mobile phone signal but the wifi was generally good enough for us to use WhatsApp and email. Hide
