Ty Sinsir, Tretower

Ty Sinsir is a five-bedroom Welsh lodge tucked away in Powys near Crickhowell. This spacious retreat offers room for the whole gang with its mix of bedroom styles including a separate ground floor room with its own kitchenette. Perfect for that relative who snores like a chainsaw.

Set in the stunning Welsh countryside with the Black Mountains as your backdrop, this place delivers proper outdoor living. You can hike straight from your door, visit Tretower Court and Castle just across the road, or drive to Llangorse Lake for water activities. After a day exploring, fire up the wood-fired hot tub and crack open a bottle while the kids play in the enclosed garden.

The accommodation includes a king-size bedroom with en-suite, a double, a twin, a triple with bunk beds and that separate external room with zip-link beds. The main house features a roll-top bath in the bathroom, a fully-equipped kitchen with range cooker and a living area with woodburning stove and unlimited logs included - no stingy "first basket free" nonsense here!

Nearby attractions include Tretower Court and Castle (literally across the road), Pen Cerrig-Calch Mountain for hikers (15 minutes), Llangorse Lake for water sports (20 minutes) and the Black Mountains Gliding Club for the brave (25 minutes). Dog washing facilities mean your four-legged friends can get as muddy as they like.

Ty Sinsir works brilliantly for multi-generational family holidays or friend reunions. With a PlayStation for teens, stairgates for toddlers and that hot tub for grown-ups, everyone's sorted!
