Cosy Barn In lovely quiet location In The Brecon Beacons

Beiliglas Barn is a refurbished two bedroom converted barn in a quiet part of the Beacons National Park. Sleeps four. It is comfortable and light, with many character features including flag floors, white stone walls, oak beams and vaulted ceiling. Underfloor heating and wood burning stove ensure it is cosy in winter.

The barn is in a rural setting 100m from a minor road. It is across the yard from the owner's house, but is quite separate and very private. There is a secluded garden in the rear. A public access path from the door leads across farmland directly to Myddfai Mountain and the ranges of the Brecon Beacons beyond. The historic village of Myddfai is a 15 minute walk on quiet roads or across fields (or 3 minute drive). The nearby town of Llandovery is 3 miles away with a supermarket (open till late every day except Sunday) and a few specialty shops and services. Ideal for couples, and families wanting to mix a lovely rural location with visits to local attractions. The cottage has been graded 4 stars by 'Visit Wales'. See note on dogs below. Cottage is no-smoking. There is a key box - so guests free to arrive as suits.

Guests have said that they appreciate flexibility with booking. I offer two and three night breaks, as well as longer bookings (with discounts for 7 day and monthly stays) with any start date.

Returning guests will receive direct discount too.

DOGS:
Small/medium dogs are welcome in the cottage. There are stone floors in the main rooms.
Please note, the cottage is next to fields with sheep, and there is a large unfenced pond on site. The garden is not enclosed, so dogs need to be on a lead. As is common with holiday lets, pets are not to go on beds or sofas, or be left alone in the cottage. Please also bring bags to clean up dog mess.
There are a few woodland walks nearby where dogs can go off their leads.

Idyllic hideaway with beautiful surroundings
Firstly thank you to Janice for being such an accommodating host. We had car problems when we arrived and she helped us out by taking us to the shops for food supplies. The barn itself was lovely - the photos do not do it justice! The accommodation was clean and Janice made sure we had everything we needed. Along with the beautiful scenery and walks from the doorstep this had everything we wanted. Thank you again Janice and we hope you’ll have us back to stay again.

We only stayed for a few days but it was an absolutely amazing location and break. The hosts were very helpful and welcoming. The cottage itself was clean and had all facilities needed. Directions and information to the cottage were impeccable. We were all a sad when we left and we will definitely be back. Thank you.

Memorable stay in charming cottage
This converted farm building looked wonderful in the photos and we certainly were not disappointed. It was well equipped, had rustic charm and a large, colourful cottage garden. We were very lucky with the weather which meant we ate every meal outdoors. Janice was very hospitable and accommodating. The only way which we could think of which would make it even better is a trampoline for the kids!

Best way to end our vacation
We absolutely loved our stay at Janice’s cozy cottage. It was so quiet that we could hear the sheep several fields away and the wind in the trees. The beds were so comfy and we enjoyed the classic games and movies but especially the fireplace. We enjoyed making meals, taking walks and just relaxing. Both hosts had awesome suggestions on where to go for local food, trails and sites which were all within a short drive. My husband and I talk about coming back in the future. We love Myddfai.

A quiet retreat
A very well equipped facility. We tend to prepare meals on site and were lacking nothing. Comfortable bed and a good kitchen. Janice is a good host too. We will add this to our list of return places. Many thanks. Although you are away from the main towns this cottage is within 4.5 miles of an Indian and Chinese takeaway, if you feel the need. Might try Miz Spice ourselves next time.

Tranquility
From the moment we arrived until the day we had to leave, this charming little cottage is a true gem, perfect if you are after some peace and isolation. The owners really go out of their way to ensure that everything you could want is available, and if it isn't they have made it clear that they welcome any suggestions to improve, they are a most welcoming couple and really understand how to provide that "get away" experience you want: there if you need them, not there if you don't. The cottage is lovely and clean and is a perfect base for going exploring around the local area. Just be aware that it is surrounded by very narrow roads so have your wits about you when you're driving in case a vehicle is coming the other way - not often because it is so quiet but not completely unlikely. In any case there are passing places on the roads so take it easy and you'll be alright. Overall this was a lovely experience and we shall definitely be returning sometime to recharge our batteries again!
