A fantastic little cottage in beautiful surroundings of the Glanusk Estate in the Brecon Beacons. Very well stocked kitchen. Very comfortable living area with cosy woodburner. The private garden looks onto wonderful views. Excellent arrival instructions from host and wealth of information in their welcome pack. A nice touch was the welcome goodies on arrival. Very close to Crickhowell itself, around 5 min drive. Plenty of walks accessible from thw doorstep. Myself and 2 friends thoroughly enjoyed our weekend retreat and plan to make it an annual event. Many thanks to the hosts at Glanusk Estate.
