Bursting with period features, country charm and rustic style, this house is perfect for escaping the everyday. Spend cosy times inside or enjoy al fresco BBQs and outdoor games after days exploring the Brecon Beacons National Park. Sleeping six over three bedrooms, this bolthole is perfect for families or friends who are after a rural break amid peaks, lakes and bustling country towns. Head inside and marvel at the period features throughout which include exposed beams, wooden panelling, stone steps and traditional fireplaces. Step through the study from the hallway, and into the lounge where you can take a seat in front of the wood burner and browse the selection of books, games and DVDs. When it’s time for dinner, the kitchen/diner boasts cottage charm with a warming Aga and is equipped with a dishwasher and washer/dryer. Dine at the table or take your meal outside and eat alfresco. The quirky, rustic style continues upstairs in the four bedrooms (one available on request and suitable for children), two of which are separated by wooden panelling and all of which are elegant and inviting. One of the rooms has an additional day bed and another can be accessed via stone steps from the lounge and has an en-suite shower room. There is off-road parking for three cars. Enjoy your fabulous location in the peaceful village of Llanvihangel Crucorney, close to the Wales/England border. Stock your cupboards with goodies from the foodie town of Abergavenny (5 miles) renowned for its food festival and a great place to visit if you fancy a night off from the kitchen. Surrounded by the Skirrid, Blorenge and Sugar Loaf mountains, it’s also a great starting point for a summit with rewarding views. 20.5 miles away is the largest natural lake in Wales, Llangorse, where some guests can enjoy a waterside wander whilst other hire kayaks and take to the water or try more water sports at Llandegevedd Lake(18 miles).
