Upper Bull Pen, Brecon

Enjoy an unforgettable getaway at this welcoming barn-conversion sitting on a quaint complex of properties on a working farm just 6 miles outside the market town of Brecon. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms, it’s a great accommodation option for small families or groups of friends who want to discover the wild beauty of the Brecon Beacons together. During the day, immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of Brecon Market Hall, where vibrant stalls invite you to taste local delicacies and strike up conversations with the friendly vendors. In the evening, come home to the cottage’s pretty garden and take a relaxing dip in the outdoor hot tub. Step inside and you’ll be greeted by a sleek kitchen next to a spacious dining area. Head upstairs and make yourself at home in the cosy lounge – it features wonderful exposed beams and sloping ceilings. When it’s time for dinner, make your way to the kitchen to rustle up your favourite meal. Host a sociable dinner in the formal dining room, or head out to the large deck to dine alfresco. After dinner, get the gang together in the shared outdoor play-barn for a game of table tennis or pool, or if you want some peace and quiet, warm your toes by the wood burner in the lounge. At the end of the day, there are two bedrooms waiting for you - a quaint twin on the ground floor and a peaceful double upstairs. Pull on your hiking boots and head to Cwn Gwdi (17 miles) to and climb the mighty Pen y Fan. You’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of Brecon Beacon National Park. Alternatively, make your way to the Royal Welsh Regimental Museum (9 miles) to explore the exhibits, check out the uniforms and learn about the lives of the soldiers.
