Cottage in Mid Wales

Rise and shine and head out and to explore. Summit Pen y Crug, a 10 mile trip from home, where spectacular views of the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons National Park can be found at this ancient hill fort. Before returning to laze the evening away, wander along the lane for 100 metres and down to the river or travel 12 miles to the Usk Reservoir for a waterside stroll. Traditional features are plenty at this farmhouse, step inside where you are welcomed by the inviting open plan living space. A warming wood burner sits in the original feature fireplace with a comfortable sofa and an armchair perfectly positioned in front of the TV so you can absorb the heat and switch off. Rustle up tasty treats in the spacious kitchen are where a second feature fireplace adds more classic charm and light floods in through the windows. A dining table to seat four guests is situated alongside the large Welsh dresser filled with fine china and trinkets and a magnificent Grandfather clock takes pride of place in the corner. Heading to the first floor up the steep cottage style staircase you can find two bedrooms and the family bathroom. The double and king size rooms are both bright spaces which invite weary heads to drift off and dream before waking and enjoying a soak in the tub or a rinse in the shower overhead. The landing area with desk offers views over the surrounding countryside. The on site garden is at the rear of the property, it's enclosed making it safe for canine companions to roam, stretch your legs here before making your way down to the river, be wary of the sheep if dogs are joining you keeping them on a lead, and breathe in the fresh air by the river. Dine outdoors on the side patio and enjoy a BBQ on warm evenings. Lockable storage for bikes is provided, too.
