The final three bedrooms share the family bathroom which features a shower over the bath. Upstairs is accessed via a characterful wooden staircase, leading through to the warm and welcoming open-plan living space with a comfortable sofa, armchairs and a TV where you can gather together and relax. The elevated position of this room makes the most of the views out of the grand end window, looking out across the countryside towards Pen-y-Fan. To the back of the space is the modern kitchen with exposed beams throughout and a quirky table seating six offering a place to sit down and celebrate as a family. Spring and summer months can be spent in the enclosed courtyard which is furnished with a table, chairs, BBQ and firepit for outdoor entertaining.

For a fantastic day out, you can visit Llangorse Lake (4 miles), the largest natural lake in Wales, to give a selection of watersports a try such as canoeing or stand up paddleboarding, glide along on a pedalo or simply enjoy a picnic in a peaceful spot. If you are a lover of literature, the market town of Hay-on-Wye is sure to please with an array of independent book shops and cafes dotted through the quaint streets. Alternatively, if you’re in search of adventure, trek up Pen-y-Fan for some of the most marvellous viewpoints in the Brecon Beacons.

Pentwyn Barn was a perfect holiday retreat in the Brecon Beacons. The views were outstanding. The accommodation was of a very high standard and an ideal home away from home. Would thoroughly recommend. The owners were very helpful with day out suggestions etc.

As we drove down the long lane we thought we had taken a wrong turn but we kept going and on our arrival we were taken aback by the view we had of the Welsh countryside. The barn was well above our expectations with stunning views from the lounge window a fully equipped kitchen/tv/xbox/wifi/radio/A.I./board games + lots of little extras outside youRead more have the use of the fully equipped summer house with BBQ and fire pit.

What a superb break on all counts, we were lucky to have a beautiful sunny week in a stunningly beautiful location. The barn was possibly the best place we have ever stayed in, in over 25 years of holidaying in the UK. Everything you needed was provided, bed was the most comfortable Ive ever sleep in away, we have returned feeling totally relaxed.

We really enjoyed our stay here, we didn't want to leave. The photos don't do the view from the window justice. You can spend hours just staring out over the hills and peaks. It's the perfect base to return to after exploring the various walks and sights nearby. We will definitely be coming back.
