Get the family together for an unforgettable stay in the Brecon Beacons, with Pen y Fan accessible from your doorstep and the added luxury of a hot tub for relaxing evenings in.

Nestled amid the natural beauty of the Brecon Beacons National Park, this traditional longhouse is perfect for families or friends looking to spend quality time together. Guests can immerse themselves in the rural tranquillity and soak up the unbridled views with 3 acres of land to enjoy, as well as the countryside beyond. With walking routes from your doorstep, including one to Pen-y-Fan, South Wales’ highest peak, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to making the most of the great outdoors. At the end of a busy day, enjoy a soak in your hot tub with a glass of bubbly.

Exquisitely and sympathetically renovated, this gorgeous home is brimming with original features, which are constant reminders of the property’s heritage. Neutral décor highlights the warm wooden tones of the exposed beams and the varied hues in the stone walls. There is careful attention to detail throughout, which makes this home pretty, welcoming and comfortable. Two wood burners make it perfect for colder months, whilst the hot tub is a wonderful addition all year round. Sleeping up to eight people over four large bedrooms, there is plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax.

The cottage is in a peaceful, rural location, surrounded by beautiful Welsh countryside where you’ll find a range of walking and cycling trails.

The historic market town, Brecon, is only 6 miles away – you can take a stroll along the pretty Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal or explore the shops, eateries and other amenities here.

We had a great week with our children. The cottage is well-equipped and there is plenty to keep little ones occupied in the house and in the garden. The hot tub and the ping-pong table were big hits with everyone! The cottage is ideally situated with easy walks from the cottage and Pen-y-Fan nearby.

Reviewed by Ms Flaherty November 2019

The Cottage was wonderful and ideal for a family and friends gathering. It was so homely but spacious at the same time and had everything we needed and more. All bedrooms were en-suite which was great. Waking up at the foot of the Beacons was stunning. The hot tub was an added bonus. Would definitely recommend, my friends hope to have their own sRead moretay and I hope to stay again. Hide

Note: As the postcode is used to identify the general area of the property, it may not always reflect its precise location, therefore please only use this map as a guide.

The Brecon Beacons is a vast, mountainous and rural region of Wales. Stretching 42 miles from east to west and covering an area of 520 square miles, the Brecon Beacons is dominated by the National Park of the same name. Split into three main areas, the Black Mountain in the west, the Brecon Beacons National Park and Fforest Fawr in the middle, and the Black Mountains in the east; each is a wild, bold and inspiring place to visit on holiday. With 1232 miles of public trails which includes the 95-mile-long Beacons Way, it’s a wayfarer’s delight. One of four Dark Skies Reserves in the UK (and one of 11 in the world), stargazers can delight in the open night sky, to enjoy the darkness in full splendour. The Fforest Fawr is a UNESCO Global Geopark because of its important geology and a need to conserve and protect the area from negative over development.

Stay at a self-catering cottage in the mountains and cascading woodlands or out on the moors; you can also stay in one of the Brecon Beacon’s lovely towns like Hay-on-Wye, Crickhowell, Llangorse or Brecon. Outdoor lovers will enjoy a choice of easy to challenging treks up and around Sugar Loaf Mountain, Carn Pica, Craig Cerrig-Gleisiad, Pen y Fan, or Hatterall Ridge (and many more besides). Take in uniquely Welsh attractions like Dan-yr-Ogof (the National Showcaves Centre for Wales), The Big Pit Mining Museum, Llanthony Priory, Carreg Cennen Castle, Fourteen Locks, and the Brecon Beacons Mountain Railway. Wildlife abounds in the Brecon Beacons, and it’s a great place to spot red kites and discover the successful story of their reintroduction to the UK’s skies at the Red Kite Centre. There’s so much to do for outdoor lovers and extreme sports fans here, so why not book your self-catering holiday in the Brecon Beacons today?

Our holiday cottages across the Brecon Beacons have been carefully selected. From dog-friendly cottages in the countryside to large farmhouses on the mountainsides and everything in between, we have a holiday in the Brecon Beacons to suit you.
