Swnyradar Reviews

Jamie T.
We had such a lovely stay! The house is beautifully decorated and set in a truly stunning location, perfect for escaping. The privacy was fantasticand the hot tub was a real highlight-especially in the rain, it felt so magical. Plenty of firewood was provided for both the hot tub and the log burner inside, which was great. The three double bedrooms were spaciousand we really appreciated the thoughtful touches like dog towels for our furry friend. The handwritten local walk maps and the welcoming info folder made exploring easier. The host was discreet but available if needed. We're already planning to come back next year!
Mark
Honestly, the place is perfect if you want peace and quiet. The facilities are spotless and comfyand the host was super friendly and gave us great tips. Would definitely stay here again!
Lucy
We absolutely loved this cosy cottage! It truly felt like a home away from home. Unlike other places, there was plenty of crockery, cutleryand glasses, so no worries about running out. The beds were super comfy with lovely beddingand we appreciated the soft towels. Waking up to that stunning view was a real treat. The garden was massiveand there was plenty of wood for the hot tub and log burner. Perfect spot for walks and water activities!
Alex Morgan
We loved the peaceful vibe hereand the owners were genuinely lovely and accommodating. The three bedrooms are a good size, perfect for relaxing after busy days exploring. Climbing up Pan-Y-Fan wasn't relaxing, but doing it with my wife, daughterand her husband made it all worth it. Brecon's just a short drive, with its pubs, shopsand restaurants - really handy!
George
We loved staying at this cosy cottage. The peaceful, remote location meant we could really relax, just listening to birds and wildlife. The view of Pen y Fan from the hot tub was incredible! The kitchen had everything we neededand there was plenty of firewood for cosy evenings by the fire and in the hot tub. It's super handy - just five minutes to a main road for exploring nearby spots. Perfect spot if you want to unwind away from the hustle. We'd definitely come back!
Emma Carter
The place was fantastic - super comfy and felt just like being at home. Perfect for families and our dog loved the garden. The hosts were really helpful, making sure we had everything we needed. We'd definitely come back if we're in the area again, no question about it!
Emily
We had a lovely stay here! The cottage was super cosy and thoughtfully decorated, which made us feel right at home. The family we met were genuinely friendly and helpful, adding to the warm atmosphere. Everything was spotless and well-stocked, honestly couldn't ask for more. The garden was a real highlight-perfect for outdoor meals or just relaxing on the settee with that breathtaking view. Definitely would recommend this place if you're after a peaceful getaway!
James
Really enjoyed staying here, the views are stunning and perfect for outdoor lovers.
Charlie
We had a lovely stay here! The place is super well-equipped and spotlessly clean. It feels quite secluded but is only a couple of minutes from the A40 and close to Sennybridge and Brecon. The views are stunningand the kids loved exploring the fields and spotting lambs. The internet worked well enough in the countryside. The only downside was the steep stairs, which might be tricky for some people. Overall, a great spot for a peaceful getaway!
Emma
Had a lovely time here! The owners really made us feel at home, super friendly and helpful. The place itself is kept in great shape and offers breathtaking views, perfect for relaxing. It's in a quiet spot but still close enough to explore the Brecon Beacons, local townsand walking spots easily. Definitely recommend!
Martin
The place is super peaceful, nestled in the countryside with stunning views of the Brecons. The hosts were really friendly and kept in touch through WhatsApp to check everything was fine. We'd definitely return; it's a lovely spot to unwind!
Emma Collins
Our stay was truly lovely. The cottage offered stunning viewsand my partner especially enjoyed watching the sheep from the window. Sally was so welcoming and even took us to the farm, which my son adored, especially feeding the lambs. We're already planning to return. Highly recommend for families with kids - a real gem!
