With a peaceful hamlet location the house sits around 1 mile from the friendly village of Talybont-on-Usk which has a useful village shop and several pubs. The Taff Trail cycle route and the Henry Vaughan Trail both run along the valley behind the cottage and the picturesque Talybont Reservoir and its dramatic dam are a mile away. Family-friendly walks through woodland and alongside the pretty Blaen-y-Glyn waterfalls are 5 miles down the road. Don t miss a trip to the Brecon Mountain Railway a scenic 10-mile drive over the mountains especially if you have young train enthusiasts in the family. The traditional cottage has a rich history going back 200 years; it s still owned by descendants of the original residents. The cosy beamed living area has a dining table for six and plenty of sofa space for the whole family to snuggle up in front of the open fire. Turn on the TV or take advantage of the selection of books and games. Leading from the lounge is the kitchen fully equipped with everything a family needs including that all-important washing machine and tumble dryer plus a dishwasher. A downstairs cloakroom with a WC and sink is a useful addition. Head up the very steep original stone stairs to the three bedrooms on the first floor. The king-size twin and bunk bedroom should accommodate most family groups. Also on the first floor is the family bathroom with a shower over the bath.

The conservatory offers a delightful spot to relax and enjoy the garden s abundant wildlife with various birds and animals frequently visiting. The cozy sitting room full of character with its exposed brickwork and beams is an inviting space to unwind on comfortable sofas by the warmth of a wood burner. The bathroom on this level includes a bath hand-held shower and WC. From the kitchen steep traditional stone stairs wind up around the back of the fireplace to the first floor where you ll find two spacious double bedrooms each with an additional single bed. The second bedroom is accessed via another steep stone spiral staircase from the living room. Step outside into the garden to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the surroundings. Enjoy a meal or drinks al fresco with the garden furniture and BBQ. The property includes a designated parking space for one car with additional parking available nearby. Please note that due to the unguarded stream running though the garden all children will require adult supervision at all times. Need to know: 2 bedrooms 2 doubles, each with an additional single bed. 1 bathroom downstairs. Electric double oven, microwave, American style fridge freezer. *Please note* Washing machine has been removed from kitchen. TV and DVD in lounge. Wi Fi not included. Limited phone signal. Wood burner (limited supply of logs provided more available in village shop). Garden with furniture and BBQ. Not suitable for young children due to the open access to the river running through the garden. All children must be supervised at all times . If planning to bathe in the river please bring your own towels. Not suitable for those with limited mobility as the stone stairs up to the bedroom floors are steep, winding and have very narrow treads . Access from the car parking area is quite steep and during adverse weather can be slippery underfoot. Designated space for 1 car, further spaces available 275 metres away. The far side of the river bank belongs to the neighbour so is out of bounds to guests. Pubs and a shop 1 mile away. Dogs must be kept on a lead at all times in the garden due to there being no boundary fence to stop dogs going on to the neighbours land accessed via the stream the cottage side of the garden is enclosed by a perimeter fence. ANNUAL BEE SWARM each year from around end of May to end of July a swarm of bees will move into the chimney of this property. These bees are protected and are usually mild mannered going about their business if left undisturbed. It is wise to close the bedroom window and bedroom door during the day to avoid the odd stray bee entering the property. As they are high up in the chimney they generally do not cause any issues when enjoying the outdoor spaces and have not been problematic in past years but alerting guests who may have a potential for bee sting allergies. .
