About this property
Experience the natural beauty of the Brecon Beacons National Park from this charming three-bedroom Welsh cottage. Accommodating up to five guests, it is conveniently located near the vibrant market town of Brecon, with its shops, restaurants, and cafes. Enjoy a 3.5-mile walk along the River Usk to Llanfrynach, or drive 4 to 6 miles to popular hiking starting points in the Brecon Beacons. Alternatively, embark on a 4-mile walk from the cottage, exploring the old Roman Road and historic Drovers route to Pen y Fan, suitable for a family day hike. Afterward, dine at one of the nearby country pubs. You can also stroll into town to the Brecon to Monmouth Canal, hire a cruiser boat or canoes, and enjoy a picnic or meal along the way. Spot the resident kingfisher or leaping salmon on the River Usk, which borders the historic parkland and water meadows of this rural estate. Day fishing can be arranged through Brecon Town Council or the Wye and Usk Scheme. Visit Llangorse Lake, 6.5 miles away, or take the children to Cantref Adventure Farm, 3.5 miles away.
The property is furnished as the owner's personal home, featuring a fine collection of furniture, landscape art, and well-stocked bookshelves. In summer, enjoy the sounds of school cricket, or in winter, the cheer of rugby from the nearby Christ College grounds. Enter the stone detached property through the reception hall, leaving your boots, coats, and bags. The kitchen, with a wood burner and window seat, is well-equipped for cooking and dining, with a washing machine and tumble dryer in the utility area. After dinner, relax in the lounge with views of the water meadows or watch TV. On sunny days, open the French doors to the patio and enclosed garden. The ground floor includes a shower room with WC, while the first floor has a family bathroom with a hand-held shower over the bath, twin hand basins, and a WC. The attractive bedrooms include a super-king-size, a twin, and a single, all with oak floors and scenic views.
