Damson Cottage is a peaceful place to stay surrounded by Welsh countryside and is situated just 4 miles from the historic market town of Brecon near the Brecon Beacons National Park. It is a pretty little holiday cottage in Wales and is proving to be a very popular holiday cottage for two people wanting a cottage holiday deep in the Welsh countryside.
5* Romantic one bedroom cottage with all modern amenities, flagged stone floor with open sitting room,
dining area, kitchen and private garden. Woodburner with plenty of firewood. Upstairs fabulous views and large comfortable king size bed. Bathroom has a bath with shower mixer taps and a power shower.
Private garden with BBQ and garden furniture. The local pub serves good food within easy walking distance.
Alltybrain Farmhouse and the self-catering cottages are up a private lane with plenty of secure carparking space.
There is a wonderful view all around of the Welsh hills and whether you visit in the spring, summer autumn or winter there is always some sort of domestic animal and wildlilfe activity happening around the gardens and fields!
Duck Cottage and Damson Cottage are delightful romantic cottages for two people and are set back off the farmyard at Alltybrain Farm. They retain many old features such as flagged stone floors and thick walls. Both cottages have views from every window. Damson Cottage and Duck Cottage are mostly weekly let during the summer months from Friday to Friday.
The Hayloft is spacious accommodation for 2 guests seeking a minimum 2 night short break self-catering accommodation near The Brecon Beacons.
The Hayloft is self-catering and bookable online for twin beds, sleeping two only. If you would like to book for 4 guests in dormitory style please contact Rose before booking. The Hayloft has a large living/dining area, kitchenette and a decent shower bathroom.
Alltybrain Farm is 4 miles from the market town of Brecon. Our village pub is open for food from Wednesday until Sunday and is within easy walking distance. Cradoc Golf Club is 3 miles away. The Brecon Beacons National Park has been awarded "Dark Skies Status" and on clear nights we have a wonderful constellation above Alltybrain Farm. The Visitors' Centre in our National Park is well worth a visit for information on historic sites, walks, bike & trekking trails. Fishing permits are available from The Wye & Usk Foundation. Hay-on-Wye is 30 mins away; Cardiff 50 mins. The Royal Welsh Show in July, Brecon Jazz in August, The Hay Literary Festival in May & The Brecon Beacons Food Festival in October are great local events. Enjoy exploring Wales!
