Bwthyn y Bannau, Brecon

Bwthyn y Bannau is a fantastically spacious cottage sitting on a 100-acre working farm in the heart of Mid Wales. This luxurious four-bedroom retreat offers panoramic views across the Brecon Beacons. The property's thoughtful design includes accessibility features throughout, making it perfect for mixed-generation family holidays.

The rural location is pure magic. Low light pollution means stargazing opportunities are incredible - you'll see more stars here than in Hollywood. Enjoy walks straight from your door, or venture to nearby attractions like the National Showcaves Centre just 7 miles away. Fancy fishing? There's half a mile of private rights on the River Crai. And when you're done exploring, the local pub is just 3 miles away - close enough for a pint, far enough to justify that second dessert.

Inside, you'll find four beautifully appointed bedrooms sleeping nine guests total. The ground floor features a twin room with rise and recline beds and an accessible en-suite wet room. Upstairs offers a king-size master with en-suite, another king room and a triple room, plus a family bathroom with separate bath and shower.

Visit Pen y Fan (12 miles, 25 minutes) for spectacular hiking, explore the National Showcaves Centre (7 miles, 15 minutes), tackle the 90-kilometre Epynt Way (20 minutes), or discover the charming town of Brecon (10 miles, 20 minutes) with its cathedral and canal basin.

Bwthyn y Bannau is perfect for families and groups wanting quality time together. The shared hot tub (sheltered from rain!), pool table and outdoor play equipment mean entertainment for all ages. Just watch the kids around the farm animals - unless you fancy explaining where lambs come from!
