Very cosy and decorated nicely. Views were stunning. Clean and well equipped, very warm too. Bed super comfy. Two slight niggles were the hot tub was cold and couldnt be used on the first night we arrived even though we knew no one had stayed there the week leading up to our trip, and the local farm dog who ran free and could get in under the gate Read moreand refused to leave, our dog isnt dog friendly so could have been an issue, or for someone who doesnt like dogs.

The Lodge was absolutely perfect in every way including a well equipped kitchen, high quality furniture/appliances and everything was spotless. It is ideally located for exploring the Brecon Beacons with several places to eat nearby. The few miles journey from the main road along a single track took a bit of getting used to but the tranquil settingRead more made it worthwhile. The owners have gone above and beyond to ensure your stay is a comfortable, pleasant experience - we would definitely return. Hide

Great location, the view from the patio was a daily treat and the closeness of the open common for gentle walking and a morning dog walk or jog was perfect. With the opportunity to rest aching bones in the hot tub afterwards. We had a lovely relaxing time, 3 family members and a dog. It was a perfect stress-free week.
