Discover the Brecon Beacons far and wide, staying in this peaceful and remote location close to the village of Sennybridge (3 miles) which has welcoming country pubs. Those looking to spend some quality time together can embark on romantic walks around the wonderful Welsh countryside, exploring the beautiful green valleys or summiting the national park’s highest mountain, Pen y Fan (14 miles). Keen fishermen will no doubt jump at the opportunity to procure a catch of the day, with the River Crai running right through the farmland for brown trout, and the nearby Usk Reservoir (5.5 miles) a popular spot for fly fishing. Travel to the nearby town of Brecon (11.5 miles) for restaurants, shops and cafes.

 

This lovingly converted cottage has been developed from a 200-year-old barn and makes up part of a complex of properties on this popular sheep farm. On arrival, head down a step and into the open-plan living area where the kitchen, lounge and dining room can be found .The kitchen is petite but fully functional, with induction hob, electric oven, microwave, fridge and washing machine. A small freezer can be found in the outhouse, where a boiler offers a warm spot for storing outerwear and secure storage for bikes. Head back inside and settle into the lounge, selecting a book to flick through or simply sit down and enjoy a DVD. On the first floor, a spacious double bedroom with sloping ceilings offers an inviting space to rest your head each night, with an en-suite waterfall shower, heated towel rail and WC.

 

There’s a small but functional patio space to the front of the property, with outdoor furniture and a BBQ for al fresco dining. The property is located on a 220-acre sheep farm and the resident owners invite you to take a stroll through the farm, a particularly nice pastime during lambing season.

We really enjoyed our stay in the Barley Store - perfect for the two of us with everything we needed. We spent the week walking, and the property was lovely to come back to each day - the boiler room was so useful for drying out our walking boots and coats overnight. The kitchen was well equipped to cook ourselves an evening meal each night - we diRead mored a main food shop at the Morrisons in Brecon on the way to our accommodation knowing that we would be a little remote and that worked perfectly.

Situated at a sheepfarm in a building with three holiday cottages. Very quiet surroundings. Equipment very complete. Good shower. A bit narrow double bed in the sleeping room which is upstairs. Within half an hour drive by car you can visit National Park Visitor's centre, Brecon or make nice hikes in Waterfall country.

It was a good week here, walking long circulars locally from the door 5 days, car used on day 6 for a longer one. Sadly weather wasn't really conducive to driving to the Beacons & trekking over there as I'd hoped, but I was happy in my choices as the lovely landscape, sights of red kites, birdsong and wild flowers along the hedgerows were all a joyRead more. The barn was comfortable, well-appointed and equipped with everything one needs. I was very happy there and have good memories of my wanderings. Hide

Well equipped and comfortable cottage on a working farm. There are 3 units within one building and we were at one end. The cottage is compact but great for 2 people. . Remote enough to be lovely and quiet but easy drive to fully explore the surrounding area.
