Holiday cottage with a hot tub in Gilwern, Monmouthshire

Accommodation details

For a couples retreat or a getaway with a friend, this marvellous cottage invites two guests to stay in the heart of the Brecon Beacons walking territory. The property, which is also dog-friendly, is laid with a single super-king-size bedroom furnished with a zip-and-link bed, offering added versatility for any two guests.

No matter who you visit with, we’re sure you’ll embrace evenings spent stargazing from the hot tub in your own enclosed garden.

The kitchen is thoroughly equipped for cooking up meals, and through it, you can access the lovely lounge with soft seating, a wood burner effect electric fire and the Smart TV/DVD. French doors lead from here out onto the veranda, a great place to dine outdoors.

Elsewhere you’ll find a wide expanse of grounds leading all the way down to the canal, perfect for exploring and embarking on adventure.
