We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. It was incredibly welcoming from the moment we arrived and felt like a real home away from home.The cottage was a lovely size, with plenty of space to relax and enjoy our stay. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped, with everything we needed for cooking and dining in, which made our stay even more comfortable.The location was beautiful and peaceful, perfect for exploring the surrounding area and enjoying the countryside. We especially appreciated how comfortable and cosy the cottage felt after a day out.Overall, a fantastic place to stay and we wouldn't hesitate to return. Highly recommended.

Ty Afon is the perfect base for exploring the area about Talybont-on-Usk. We spent most of our stay walking/kayaking the canal but also visited Brecon Mountain railway, Brecon town, and some waterfalls.The local shop carries a good range and the café is friendly & welcoming to all. It is a popular hub of village life.The accommodation had everything that we needed with plenty of space and the kitchen, bathrooms, etc all finished to a high standard. The showers are heaps better than ours at home! It was super hot when we stayed but the back garden had a nice shady spot for breakfast & sitting out in the evening, and the ground floor stayed lovely and cool throughout. We enjoyed several games of table football and Cluedo. The homemade Bara Brith, milk and other supplies were much appreciated on our arrival. Caroline sent helpful information before our stay and responded to emails same day.
