About this property

Offering a charming gateway into the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park, this end-of-terrace cottage hosts a spacious interior and a fabulous central position in the town of Brecon. 1 Harp Terrace is a great choice for a large family or a group of walkers wanting to explore this glorious area of South Wales, with four bedrooms and a layout over three floors, everyone can find a snug spot. Enter into the property after an invigorating ramble and be welcomed into a homely sitting room; find a large and inviting corner sofa to sink into with a cup of tea as you turn on the gas fire, adding a welcoming aura to the property. When you're not dining out in one of the lovely restaurants in Brecon, enjoy rustling up a home-cooked meal within the kitchen/diner; this spacious room holds all you need by way of appliances, including a gas cooker and hob, as well as a washing machine for all your laundry needs, helpful for longer stays. Completing this floor is the rear boot room to store your walking boots and coats, as well as a handy cloakroom with basin and WC. Find a sweet little courtyard outside with a bench for seating, offering a space to catch some fresh air in the mornings and let your four-legged friends stretch their legs. Head upstairs to discover two large double bedrooms, enjoying high ceilings and attractive furnishings, while the bathroom lies across the hall, here you can soak in the bath for a peaceful moment, or enjoy a hot shower in the morning to begin your day well. Travel another set of stairs to the second floor and come to the final two rooms; a twin bedroom and a double bedroom both featuring beneath sloping ceilings, with lovely views of the hills beyond the town from the windows. The town of Brecon has a lot to offer in the form of history, from its 11th century modest cathedral with beautiful stained glass, to the Regimental Museum of The Royal Welsh, showcasing military history and exhibits, and the Brecon Canal Basin where you can embark on a delightful stroll along the waters. Just five miles away is the Cantref Adventure Farm where a host of fun can be had, watch the children play on the indoor and outdoor play zones, watch animal shows, bottle feed some lambs, and place your bets on a pig race, whilst the centre is also home to a riding school, embark on a pony trek across the Brecon Beacons offering a unique way to see the landscape. Further east, around seven miles from Brecon, you can accept the Sky Trek Challenge at Llangorse Multi Activity Centre including zip-lining, climbing and abseiling, perfect for thrill seekers, while those who prefer to be on solid ground can walk around the beautiful Llangors Lake. Keen walkers will be most interested in exploring the amazing Pen y Fan, a picturesque peak with a Bronze Age burial chamber at the summit, head up here to experience staggering views across the Beacons, with several other peaks to incorporate into your walks such as Cribyn with its dramatic sandstone escarpment, Fan y Big which resembles the peak of a bird's bill, and Waun Rydd.

    Our only issue was the central heating wasn't working too well, making the house a bit on the chilly side! We were able to make contact with someone who very promptly dealt with the situation and arranged a gas engineer to visit, which happened. We were informed the boiler was a known issue and will be replaced shortly. so that'll be good for future visits.

    As much as we could have asked for in terms of comfort, convienience of location and everything within the accommodation we needed. No problems whatsoever and therefore an enjoyable break had by all.

  • Adam

    Easy to access although parking is awkward - one space and unclear nearby car parking. (If there’s eight of you you won’t be in one car.) Property is simply furnished with clean painted walls. No pictures which felt strange in such a large property. Use of the front lounge is restricted to no food - not a problem but perhaps should be on the property description. One bathroom and a toilet downstairs did feel a bit restrictive but perfectly ok. The lack of any garden to sit in was a little sad. In conclusion we had a great stay and whilst the property is perfectly functional it wasn’t homely.
