The house offers stunning views and is well-equipped with comfy beds, all the kitchenware you could need, plus a BBQ, outdoor seatingand a hot tub! The host was really helpful, with smooth check-in and check-out. We'd definitely stay here again if we return!

We had a fantastic weekend celebrating my 30th birthday here with family and friends. The place was just perfect - spacious bedrooms with really comfy beds and loads of bathrooms, which was so handy. The kitchen, loungeand dining area fit all 12 of us comfortably without feeling cramped. Plus, the hot tub was already heated when we arrived, which was a lovely bonus! Honestly, we loved every minute and would definitely come back again!

The cottage was just lovely. Everything was thoughtfully arrangedand the location beats all our previous stays. Huge thanks to Adrian for going above and beyond; nothing was too much trouble. We had an amazing time in Gludy and definitely plan to return someday!
Emma
We had a lovely week! The cottage was super well-equippedand the view of Pen y Fan was absolutely stunning. Definitely coming back soon!
Alex
We loved this big house just outside Brecon, nestled down a quiet lane. It's really well kitted out and super comfy, with a spacious kitchen, dining areaand cosy sitting room featuring a cracking wood burner. The mountain views from the kitchen and garden are stunning - honestly, we couldn't get enough of them. If you're not driving, you'll need a taxi to hit the local pubs and eateries, but overall, it's a fantastic spot for a big group. We'd definitely come back!
Emma
We had a fantastic stay! The house offered plenty of room for our family, perfect for hanging out and activities. The views of the Beacons kept changing with the weatherand watching the sunrise and sunset from the hot tub was just amazing. Highly recommend!
Emma
This place is lovely and well located, but small kids should be watched around fragile stuff.
