This is an excellent base for easy walking distance to shops and amenities of Brecon. We enjoyed local walks around Brecon and a visit to Pen Y Fan. This was a quiet base and with good parking and the flat was very well equipped. I would certainly re-book another time.

Where do I start, the property is ideally situated in Brecon, you have the views of rolling hills and the River Usk. You are a 5 minute walk from butchers, bakerys and lovely independent shops. A must is a visit to the ice cream parlour and the cinema. The property has everything and the beds are super comfy, the kitchen is spacious and the living Read moreroom is relaxing, just an all round super holiday. Thank you. Hide
