Cottage in Mid Wales

About this property

Nestled in a serene setting with a picturesque mountain stream flowing through its cottage garden, this charming two bedroom property is a paradise for walking enthusiasts, offering miles of uninterrupted trails right from the doorstep. For cyclists, the nearby Taff Trail and the Henry Vaughan walk along the old Brynoyre railway track provide scenic routes through the valley. Just a mile away lies the quaint village of Talybont on Usk, where you can explore a canal, two rivers, a reservoir, woods and waterfalls. The village also features a general store with Post Office and café. There are two welcoming pubs serving food. The entrance porch leads into a country style kitchen, complete with an antique pine dresser, a dining table, and chairs. This well equipped kitchen includes an electric double oven, microwave, and an American style fridge freezer, perfect for preparing anything from quick snacks to formal meals. 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.

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. .
