This charming property, situated in Cantref, Glamorgan, offers a rustic getaway just five miles from Brecon, nestled in the heart of the picturesque Welsh countryside. Originally a barn used for sheep shearing, it has been meticulously transformed into a spacious retreat that accommodates up to ten guests. This location not only provides a serene rural atmosphere but also serves as a perfect base for exploring the stunning local area, whether on foot, by bike, or horseback. Nature enthusiasts can look forward to spotting local wildlife such as red kites, peregrine falcons, and buzzards, while adventurers can enjoy wild swimming at the nearby waterfalls of Nant Sere or a family day out at Cantref Adventure Farm, located just a mile away.
Inside, the property boasts a light-filled interior featuring original elements like oak beams, vaulted ceilings, and terracotta flooring. The open-plan living area is designed for comfort and conviviality, incorporating a lounge, dining space, and a fully equipped kitchen with modern amenities such as a microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and a range cooker with double ovens. For cozy evenings, a wood burner in the lounge creates a warm atmosphere, complemented by a second snug area equipped with a TV/DVD player and a selection of toys and books for younger guests. Additionally, the ground floor includes a utility/drying room for muddy gear, an extra WC, and two bedrooms: a twin room with access to the patio and a master bedroom featuring an en suite bathroom.
Upstairs, guests will find a cozy reading nook and two more bedrooms sharing a separate WC. The first bedroom is uniquely designed in a dormitory style with four single beds, two of which can be converted into a double upon request. The fourth bedroom offers a comfortable king-size bed that can also be split into two single beds if needed. For added convenience, two fold-up beds are available upon request, making the property versatile for larger groups or families.
Outside, the property features two charming terraces, complete with garden furniture and a BBQ, perfect for enjoying leisurely summer evenings. The lawned garden provides ample space for children to play, while guests can also access the surrounding fields when livestock are not present. This delightful retreat combines rustic charm with modern comforts, making it an ideal escape for families or groups looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Welsh countryside.
