This delightful retreat is part of a group of three huts situated in a secluded spot in the foothills of the Black Mountains. Lying along the north-eastern corner of the Brecon Beacons, the bright and cheerful hideaway is a perfect base for walkers, climbers, nature lovers and cyclists exploring the region’s stunning landscapes. The medieval Castell Bronllys is just 150 metres away, with the cheerful village of Bronllys itself within half a mile, with a friendly pub, cafe and shop. The hut lies midway between the historic market town of Brecon (8 miles) and Hay-on-Wye (7.5 miles). Brecon sits along the River Usk and is home to a magnificent cathedral, while Hay-on-Wye is famous for its many second-hand bookshops and festivals. Other local attractions include Llangorse Lake, The Begwyns, Tretower Castle and the nature reserves at Pwll y Wrach and Brechfa Pool, all within 10 miles.
Four steps lead up and into this fresh, bright and airy shepherd’s hut, which has been beautifully furnished and characterfully decorated throughout. Immediately in front of you, there’s a table and chairs, perfect for romantic meals, which you can rustle up in the fully equipped kitchen area to the side. At the heart of the hut is a roaring traditional wood burner, and the property has the added benefit of underfloor heating. Over to the other side of this cosy retreat, you will find a stylish king-size bed which can be accessed from both sides. The bedroom area also has a Smart TV and bi-fold windows offering idyllic views. The accommodation is rounded off with a refreshing shower room with a twin shower.
Heading back outside, the steps lead down to a quiet and screened-off garden area with a private patio and plenty of outdoor furniture, including a fire pit for a BBQ on a sunny afternoon. There’s also a bubbling hot tub for you to luxuriate in after a great day’s exploring. Off-road parking is available for two cars.
