This cosy cottage is ideal for two couples or a small family wanting to make the most of this beautiful part of Wales, where the diverse scenery includes rolling countryside, valleys, waterfalls, canal paths and caves. The property adjoins the owner’s house in the rural hamlet of Pentre-bach on the northern edge of Brecon Beacons National Park and is equidistant to the market towns of Brecon and Llandovery (12 miles). Family-friendly attractions include Llangorse Multi Activity Centre (19 miles) and Fforest Fawr Geopark, a landscape sculpted by ice then transformed by man (12 miles). Water sports enthusiasts are well catered for with the River Usk providing white water canoeing (3 miles) as well as opportunities for wild brown trout, salmon and sea trout fishing. There are also plenty of cycling and walking routes in the area.
The lounge features exposed stone walls, quarry tiled floors and oak beams and open stairs leading to the bedrooms. A wood burner is set in the stone fireplace and double-glazed doors from the lounge lead to the garden. Adjoining the lounge is the kitchen and a dining table with four chairs, and a bathroom with a shower. Upstairs are two double bedrooms with oak floors and Velux skylights with blackout blinds to ensure a good night’s sleep.
As well as a seating area in front of the cottage, there’s a large lawn to the rear and an additional lawn area overlooking the confluence of two small rivers across the road. Note that this garden is shared with the owner’s house next door and that young children and/or pets will need to be supervised as the lawn area is open to the river.
