Cosy Eco-Cottage w/ garden stream: mountains & rivers to explore!

River Cabin, our cosy eco-cottage, is the perfect rural retreat in which to replenish yourself in nature. Nestled between 3 historic market towns on the banks of the picturesque River Wye, we're a stone's throw from the majestic Brecon Beacons & Black Mountains: an ideal base for exploring mid-Wales. ​
​
There are hiking & cycling routes from the doorstep, as well as wild swimming, kayaking & climbing spots nearby. For quiet days in you can sit by the garden's brook serenaded by cascading waterfalls & birdsong from neighbouring woods, laze in the sunny dining porch, or cosy up with a book by the fire.
​
We accommodate 2 guests comfortably, but also offer an extra sofa bed at an additional cost of £15pp/pn.

The stone cottage has 1 bedroom with a double bed, single sofa bed, a private shower room, sunny dining porch & fully equipped kitchen/living area. There is a gas-burning fire, games & books, & excellent wifi.

With extensive outdoor space, there is plenty of parking, sheltered bike storage & outdoor seating & options. We have a fire pit & BBQ as well as a special terrace overlooking the brook.

We are happy to welcome 1 well-behaved dog at a small additional cost.

A lovely property and location
The cabin was such a special place with the river right at the edge of the garden. We sat out and enjoyed dinner on the platform just next to the water and lit a small fire in the fire pit under the stars. The property was ideal for myself and my two young children (6 and 8, all of us sharing the one room) but would also be great for a couple looking for a getaway in a convenient location for exploring the beautiful surrounding area.

Brilliant private couples get away
This was a perfect little cottage, in the welsh hillsides, easy to find and super close to where we wanted to be for some scenic walks and village explorations ! I would rate highly, as it had all the necessary bits you need to cook, clean and stay cosy, the bed was also actually really comfy and spacious. Lynne was super helpful an responsive but let us have our privacy too. Thanks, would definitely recommend !
