Nestled within an organic farm, this home consists of three independent cottages and provides the perfect setting for an intimate celebration. You’ll be welcomed by beautiful views across the Brecon Beacons, two hot tubs, large gardens and a games room. Mountain bikes are also available to hire from the farm, plus guests can enjoy seasonal homemade honey and organic produce. And for explorations further afield, you’ll find hiking trails running directly from the grounds, while the traditional market town of Brecon is just 7 miles away.
