Pet friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 4 - Llanfrynach, Powys

Set on a private estate, this elegant and characterful cottage with EV charging is perfect for a small family or couple who are seeking a rural getaway with two canine companions. The property boasts wooden beamed ceilings, traditional country-style decor and a garden that backs onto a private woodland. During your stay, you can explore the nearby countryside towns and the hiking trails in the Brecon Beacons.

As you step inside the open-plan lounge/diner, you'll notice the traditional cottage feel from the wooden beamed ceiling, stone flooring with underfloor heating, and a wood burner in an inglenook fireplace. Neutral tones fill the space with a hint of green throughout the soft furnishings. Behind the cosy lounge area with a sofa and two armchairs is a wooden dining table with comfortable chairs.

Continue into the green kitchen to find an L-shaped fitted unit with dark countertops and the added convenience of a coffee machine and a washer/dryer. Upstairs is a contemporary grey and cream wet room with a rainfall shower and two bedrooms - a super-king-size with a romantic sleigh bed plus a twin room. Outside, you'll find a terrace and lawn with furniture.

While staying in the village of Llanfrynach, wander around the expansive estate grounds through woodland and parkland. Take your four-legged friends for a stroll along the River Usk (1 mile) and stop for a picnic beside the Brynich Aqueduct (2 miles). If you're visiting with little ones, you could meet the animals at Cantref Adventure Farm (2 miles).

Hire a boat at Llangorse Lake (5.5 miles) or challenge yourself to a hike to the summit of Pen Y Fan (4 miles) - which sits at 886 metres. Also nearby is the Welsh town of Brecon (3.5 miles) where you can dine out or pop to the shops.
