Emma
The cottage is stunning, super well-equippedand in a great spot to discover the Brecon Beacons. Definitely recommend!
Emma
Honestly, if you manage to get this place in Wales for free, you’re really lucky! The house feels just like home, with four decent-sized bedrooms, an ensuiteand a family bathroom-all really well maintained. The downstairs layout is lovely, with a spacious kitchen and dining area, plus a cosy lounge and a formal dining room. The outside space is great for dogs and kids, with a secure garden and a hot tub spot with comfy furniture. It’s in a small town with all you need-supermarket, butcher, bakerand takeaways. We’d definitely stay again!

We visited in August 2023 and honestly, this place is fantastic. The house is spotlessly clean and fully equipped with everything you might need. The bedrooms are spaciousand those huge beds are super comfy. If you're bringing a dog, you'll love the secure front and back yards - really dog friendly.
