    Absolutely nothing at all

    Stunning place with amazing views. The stables are immaculate, it’s so beautiful here. We had the best time and can’t wait to return already. Jennie the host is really lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. We didn’t want to leave, hot tub was a bonus and again had lovely mountain scenery. So glad I found this place, it’s a hidden gem!

    Excellent place to stay, spotlessly clean, very quiet and peaceful. The accomodation has everything you need for a comfortable place to spend the week. All the fixtures and fittings are high quality. Jennie, the host is friendly and approachable. Great option for bikers with private, gated off road parking on hard standing covered by cameras, it's off the beaten track and very quiet so pretty secure.

    I wish I stayed longer.

    I had such a wonderful stay here! When I first arrived, I was a little lost in the rain and unsure of where I was going, but luckily I met the host on her way back from walking the dogs. She greeted me so warmly at the gate and instantly made me feel welcome. The apartment itself completely exceeded my expectations — it was much larger and more beautiful than the photos online (the pictures really don’t do it justice!). The high ceilings gave it such a spacious feel, and the window on the ceiling of the bathroom gave a refreshing, outdoor-like experience that made it feel unique. What made it even more special was the view — looking out over the fields and watching the animals wander by was so peaceful and therapeutic. Even though I only stayed for one night and a couple of days, it was truly memorable. I’d love to come back for a longer stay in the future!

    The pictures don't do this place justice. The apartment was done out to an extremely high standard. The kitchen was very well stocked with cooking utensils. The grass out the front is the perfect place to just sit, enjoy a drink and watch the sunset. The owner came down and talked all of us outside which was nice to see.

    Self catering on top of a Welsh mountain

    Minor point. Maybe an internal lock for the shower/ toilet room, especially when you might be accommodating a third person. Otherwise, the final leg of the journey up to the location where these lodgings are, takes you along quite a narrow road and country road.

    I had been scrambling for hotel accommodation for Friday night in Cardiff due to celebrating our son's university graduation, however, I couldn't get anything resembling an affordable price, and had to look for anything further afield. So, ending up around 40 minutes away from Cardiff, virtually on top of a Welsh mountain, slap bang in the middle of a working farm literally was further afield. That said, when we actually found the property and accessed it we were blown over by the quality and size of the accommodation. The finish of the (Self catering lodge) was excellent, blending modern facilities with traditional wooden furnishings. The owners have obviously spent a lot in developing these lodgings and taken great care in how they look.. It was possible to view internet platforms such as YouTube, Netflix and Amazon Prime, which was unexpected. Good sizeable bedroom and shower wet room in addition to a Living room (2nd bedroom for one extra person) and kitchen, dining room.

    Loved it all. Some instructions on how to get the log fuelled jacuzzi started would be an addition & some tea/ coffee/ milk would have been a nice addition as the shops are a drive away for supplies ( and maybe a Welsh cake ! 😊)

    The property was modern, spotlessly clean, spacious, minimal. Very quiet and beautiful views. Gardens nicely kept and flowers in full bloom. Good location for travelling into Cardiff for principality stadium ( 20 mins or so) and super location for hiking in the Brecons.
