Overview
Property code: BN351

Perfect for a family exploring the Brecon Beacons, this Welsh stone-built cottage is set in idyllic surroundings with beautiful gardens, a stream running by the house and stunning mountain views.

Just a mile from Talybont-on-Usk, this pretty, white cottage is situated in an idyllic location tucked along a no-through lane. There’s a stream running at the bottom of the garden and stunning mountain views surrounding you, the perfect spot for a family getaway for six guests in the Brecon Beacons.

You’ll find this country cottage furnished beautifully and an ideal holiday base for walkers, cyclists and nature-lovers. The cosy lounge is welcoming and retains some of the building’s original features such as exposed oak beams and the stone fireplace. Leave your muddy boots and coats in the porch, fire up the wood burner and relax after a long day exploring the area. You’ll also find a collection of board games and jigsaw puzzles for all the family to enjoy. Outside is an extensive and tiered, enclosed garden, with plenty of space for children to play, teenagers to sunbathe and the adults to cook on the BBQ.

The property is located in the quiet hamlet of Aber which sits below the imposing Pen y Fan - the tallest peak in South Wales. Talybont Reservoir is 1 mile south, a wonderful spot for walking, cycling and birdwatching. You’ll also be near to some of the fabulous walking and cycling routes in the Brecon Beacons National Park including the Taff Cycle Trail, the Brinore Tramroad and the Henry Vaughan Walk. If you’re interested in chasing waterfalls, visit Blaen y Glyn (5.5 miles) or join the walk along Caerfanell River that has a few small waterfalls along it. For shops, restaurants and other amenities, visit the eclectic market town of Brecon (8.5 miles).

A very spacious well equipped and well furnished house in an ideal location. The entrance area was excellent place for muddy boots and hanging coats etc.The large and very lovely garden was also a great asset and our grandchildren loved it. unfortunately it rained most of the week. . Would recommend taking slippers or thick socks during the cold moRead morenths as the stone floors are very cold! It was good having both a ktichen table and a dining table. a good place to stay.

Beautiful cottage in a wonderful location. This has clearly been a well loved family home. It is in a wonderful location for walks but also with good access where required. The garden is fantastic. The owners are very helpful without being obtrusive.

This cottage is beautiful, as is the garden, especially with the glorious stream and river at the bottom of the garden. My children and dogs all had plenty of space to run and play. We enjoyed the fire pit - toasting marshmallows, and taking in the beautiful scenery. I managed to climb a couple of the very tall hills/mountains and enjoyed the walk Read moreto the local village for a pub lunch. As the location is so recluse, the WiFi was a little touch and go at times, mostly fine though. WE LOVED IT ! Hide

A very charming cottage in a quiet but not remote location. A great spot for walkers. Owners of large vehicles might find access along the narrow 200 metre lane difficult to negotiate. Weekly refuse disposal has to be taken to the end of this lane and grocery deliveries collected from same. Maybe a problem if you are disabled unless you use your caRead morer. Hide
