Located on a working smallholding, this stone barn is ideal for exploring the great outdoors around Mid Wales, with plenty of opportunities to get stuck in on the farm itself. Couples and families will love the array of activities within easy reach, including Black Mountain Geopark (10 miles), a great option for those in search of an adventure, Talley Woodlands (3 miles) for walking trails with breathtaking views across the Brecon Beacons, and Brechfa Forest (11.5 miles) with a number of mountain biking trails.
This countryside cottage is full of character, with an open-plan living space up one step from the entrance, featuring high ceilings, elegant exposed beams, a wood burner-effect electric fire and a three-seater sofa to make the most of the space in the evenings. For mealtimes, there’s a pine dining table with four chairs, just metres away from the well-equipped kitchen. The first and most unusual of the bedrooms is the Crog Lofft room, which sits above the living room and is accessed by an open-tread ladder-style set of wooden steps. Although headroom is limited, this twin room is the perfect place for older kids to camp out for an extra special stay. The second room is down one step from the lounge, and is a double with plenty of storage in matching pine furniture. Serving the property is a shower room with a heated towel rail, an ideal place to wash off after a day of outdoor adventures.
The garden area has a small decked patio with a bistro table and chairs for dining alfresco. The top level of the garden has a summerhouse with views that stretch for miles, and it’s the best place on the farm to catch a sunset. For those wanting to get involved in life on the farm during a stay, the owners are happy to show guests around the 30-acre smallholding with chickens, ducks, goats and sheep and encourage guests to help with egg collecting and animal feeding. Fresh eggs are usually available.
