Perfect cottage for my week stay. I loved the design, the eggs, the biscuits, the well behaved dog, the soft cat. Do not hesitate!

This was the perfect cottage for our Christmas break, cosy, comfortable, well equipped and in a good location for walks in Bannau Bryncheiliog. The owners made us feel very welcome, and we enjoyed the visits by the farm cat. We hope to return, and would recommend it.

Beautiful, comfortable cottage, superbly equipped. An extremely welcoming and friendly host who gave us a delicous freshly-made cake on arrival, free eggs and home-made marmalade. On a working farm, with lovely views of hills from all the rooms. The peace and tranquility of the area was a godsend from a noisy World. We spent a lovely week theRead morere and would definitely stay again. Hide

This cottage had everything I wanted and I was very satisfied with my stay. An added bonus for me was that it was on a working farm and I found it very interesting (I'm an industrial townie). I normally holiday with three generations of my family so I don't know when I will get the chance to return, but return I will.

Our stay at Bwthyn Blaencar Stable Cottage was really enjoyable. We were welcomed with a minimum of fuss and the written directions to get there were detailed and correct . Dont be tempted just to use the postcode for Sat Nav- once close - switch to written details! There is a parking space by the farmhouse so you can unload easily on level grounRead mored. The cottage is warm and there was plenty of hot water - so we could soak / shower after a couple of long walks! The kitchen is well equipped - we ate / cooked there the whole of our stay and it lacked nothing from our point of view. The cottage is a great base for a couple wanting to explore the Brecon Beacons - Pen y Fan and the Four Waterfalls walk were spectacular for scenery. We also visited Brecon, Crickhowell and Abergavenny. This is a working farm with livestock - so there are barns and farm vehicles around. The view from one of the bedroom windows across the hills is uplifting! It was very peaceful and we had a relaxing time here. Highly recommended! Hide
