Spacious yet cosy, thoughtfully refurbished and fully equipped, Taf Fechan cottage is the perfect base for a family or group getaway this year. Situated in the village of Pontsticill, Taf Fechan offers a perfect base to enjoy the best routes and scenery the Brecon Beacons has to offer – less than 20 minutes from the base of Pen y Fan or the famous Ystradfellte Four Waterfalls, as well as a choice of outdoor activities and equipment hire available within the village. One king and two double bedrooms (one en-suite) comfortably sleep up to 6 guests, with a lounge with smart TV and speedy wi-fi, and great size kitchen for communal dining and entertaining downstairs. A newly constructed tiered garden adjacent to the house offers a great outside space, with fantastic views of the Taf Fechan valley from inside and out. (Please note - We are in the process of completing the works on the outdoor spaces, aiming to complete by May 2024). Despite our beautiful rural location, the nearest corner store and takeaway are only 5 mins away, and the nearest supermarket and petrol station are less than 15 minutes away should you need them. If you need anything else locally, we're happy to recommend! Feel free to message us for more details on our Sunday to Thursday special offers. We hope to welcome you soon!
Hi I'm Jodie, General Manager for The Pencerrig Collection and thank you for considering us for your stay. We are a small, family run business with a number of properties in the area, we are experienced hosts and are available to answer any questions before or during your stay. Look forward to hosting you! Jodie @ The Pencerrig Collection
A village of industrial heritage, Pontsticill is closely associated with the Brecon Mountain Railway, a tourist steam locomotive which operates as an attraction to visitors along the former Brecon and Merthyr Railway line, and Taf Fechan reservoir, constructed to serve the growing industry and population of the South Wales valleys in the 1920s. Pontsticill also boasts two bustling, dog friendly pubs, situated minutes from the cottage, popular year-round with locals and visitors alike. The village is a gateway to the Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog), with excellent road links to Crickhowell, Brecon, Abergavenny and Cardiff and Swansea further afield. Two major South Wales attractions are accessible in less than a 30-minute drive, Bike Park Wales, and Zip World Tower – featuring Phoenix, the world’s fastest seated zip-line.
