About the area
Famous for its choirs, stunning mountain ranges and beautiful valleys, this wonderful country has something for everyone. From Snowdonia in North Wales to the Brecon Beacons and the Pembrokeshire Coast in the South.
Peacefully situated amidst beautiful, unspoilt countryside, the rural village of Llanafan Fawr is home to an old church and Powys' oldest pub, The Red Lion, which serves fine, traditional fare. Set in the slopes of the Llanafan Valley and within easy distance of the equally beautiful Wye Valley, the surrounding countryside is renowned for its walking and mountain biking opportunities, though it also provides an excellent backdrop for fishing and bird-watching along the Wye and Irfon rivers. Builth Wells is also within easy driving distance and this picturesque market town provides a variety of interesting crafts stores and many collectors' fairs. The annual Royal Welsh Show is hosted in the town every July and is a colourful, fascinating fete. The Brecon Beacons National Park and the spectacular Black Mountains are easy to reach from the area, making this an ideal place for people looking to enjoy the outdoor life or simply relax against this stunning backdrop.
This luxurious barn conversion, purpose built and beautifully furnished and decorated by the owners, is set just a mile from Llanafan Fawr, in one of the most romantic locations overlooking breathtaking countryside views as far as the Black Mountains.

Discover unspoilt countryside by foot, on cycles or in the car with stunning mountains, beautiful lakes and small, friendly villages. Returning to your superb holiday cottage to plan your next day out is a real pleasure. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 2186, together they sleep 4.
