Talgarth is a gem of a location and Penmaen cottage is so lovely and comfortable. The friendly owners live next door but they are not at all intrusive and it's good to know help is on hand if required. Talgarth has all the essentials such as a supermarket, takeaways and a restored watermill. It is also a great location and not far from Brecon and Hay. We had a great week.

Penmaen was very clean and comfortable with all the equipment you need for your stay. The owners are very friendly and helpful if you have any questions too. Talgarth has everything you need with a Co-op, fish & chip shop and Gurkha Restaurant within walking distance and The Mill and cafe are great too.We had a great stay.
