Situated on a sunny, sheltered little plateau right in the Black Mountains on the Eastern side of the Brecon Beacons National Park, Pontescob Cottage enjoys one of the loveliest locations imaginable. Perfect for honeymoons, romantic breaks, peaceful escapes, or family holidays, this 17th century listed millers cottage is both well away from it all and very easily reached. 2.5 hours from London, 1.5 hours from Birmingham, and an hour from Cardiff or Bristol make it a perfect get-away.  
  • This romantic cottage is set in a sweet little garden next to the clear waters of the Grwyne river. Overlooking the distinctive Pen y Fal or Sugar Loaf Mountain, it is a great place for a good walk up to a splendid view of the surrounding Black Mountains and across to the Brecon Beacons.
  • Exclusive fishing (in season) is available on the excellent trout stream at the bottom of the garden.
     


Pontescob Cottage has recently been restored, using traditional materials, with an effort to be as environmentally responsible and historically authentic as possible.  

  • The heating is carbon neutral, being supplied by two top-of-the-range woodburning stoves, making it cosy on winter days.
  • The cottage has a hall-cum-dining room, with an intact, historically important wooden screen dividing it from a neat kitchen complete with all necessities - a five-burner gas hob, oven, dishwasher, good-sized fridge-freezer, roomy cupboards and a painted wooden dresser, as well as the full complement of crockery and cutlery.
  • The garden room is the place to relax: in front of a wood burning stove in the winter or, with the French doors flung open, outside on the stone terrace in summer with the peaceful sound of the river running past.
  • Winding stone staircase up to large master bedroom with wooden floorboards and antique brass bed.
  • Children's room, with shorty bunk beds, and space for a travel cot.
  • Bright pretty bathroom with bath and power shower, loo, wash hand basin and heated towel rail.
  • All the important elements are supplied so that you dont have to overpack: washing-powder, washing-up liquid, tea towels, towels, bedding, loo paper and soap.
  • The picturesque turf-roofed garden shed houses the washing-machine, garden chairs, boiler and extra logs.
