What our Guests Say

“★★★★★”

Stephen 27/12/24

We were lucky to arrive on a perfect winter afternoon. The barn's backdrop is a hillside that was catching the afternoon sun, and the valley was filled with clouds, making a cloud inversion arrival the perfect start to our week! The route to the barn may look intimidating but we managed it no problem throughout a week that included some cold wet mornings in my wifes 2 wheel drive mini. The location is stunning with numerous walks from the door and the full expanse of the Brecon Beacons within easy reach. Copious amounts of wood for the woodburner, but in reality the barn is so well insulated that we used it more for effect than needing it for warmth, despite the temp dropping to -5 ' during our stay. Cozy bedlinen got my wifes approval and everything worked as it should. 10 out of 10 for everything from us . We will be back !"
