Best equipped cottage we have ever stayed in, with the lovely owner on site if needed. Having a dishwasher is great - but only if there is enough of everything so you don't have to handwash between meals, or run the washer with only a few bits in it. This cottage provided several of everything, and useful extras like cling film and foil. Fresh and Read moreclean, bathrooms spotless, beds superclean and comfortable. Steep road but the lane is a dead end so very quiet - no traffic noise at all Hide

We stayed at the cottage and it was everything we hoped for and more. It was quiet, clean, tidy and well presented. The rooms were large and the kitchen, with large dining table, had everything to hand that we needed. The weather was chilly and variable but the cottage was welcome sight at the end of each sightseeing trip and comfortable to relax iRead moren. Hide

A very comfortable, well equipped cottage in a great location for walking and visiting sites in the Brecon Beacons, including some walks alongside rivers from the house.

The cottage we stayed in ,was the two bedroom. We loved it, and the host was brilliant , explaining everything. The roads leading to the property are narrow, and a steep climb, but set in a very peaceful setting, so if you like quiet surrounded be trees, you could walk to the pub, but it is a steep climb back. Would we book again, most certainly. YRead moreou need a car. We had a truly lovely week there. Hide
