We can only recommend and praise both our hosts and their fabulous barn. Merion and Gill are both very welcoming and thoughtful (bread, mild and butter left as well as delicious homebake cakes were awaiting us). The barn is very much a reflection of their thoughtfulness and immaculate taste. You feel at home straight away and can enjoy and relax after a good walk, of which there is a wide choice close by. A must if you want to discover this beautiful part of Wales.

Meirion and Gill were outstanding hosts. From offering up excellent initial points of contact through phone and email, to steering my family into exactly where the barn was, to being on hand the first night to welcome us in, their hospitality knew no bounds. The barn itself was absolutely gorgeous, complete with a couple of countryside quirks and space to spread out and relax in. The barn had been well stocked up before we arrived with gin, wine, chocolate and coffee/tea kit and all sorts of other bits and pieces. The stove and cooking utensils were all top notch as well. The farm complex is very pretty. The surrounding towns have enough larger shops and places to eat to make the whole experience very easy and very relaxed. We did very little outside of staying inside the barn as a way of recharging ourselves ready for 2016. That being said the cycling I did complete was in incredible countryside, complete with fantastic views and scenery to boot. I would highly recommend this warm, well equipped, super comfortable barn to any family gathering, looking to relax and enjoy rural Wales in what is a home away from home. We want to come again and plan to book again soon.

Absolutely lovely hosts and beautiful accommodation. Cant recommend enough.

You couldn't have asked for better hosts Meirion and Gill were welcoming , warm and friendly. Barn was as described. Homemade cake (which was delicious), milk, bread and butter was there for us plus lots of other things. There are plenty of walks in the surrounding area. An escape from city life. Would definitely recommend. Mel and family.

I brought my family from America to stay at the farmhouse and I have to say that Meirion and Gill made us feel like family members, not guests. They had some food in the fridge ready for us and Gill had made a Gluten Free Swiss Roll. The house was amazing. The scenery was outstanding and I would recommend this accommodation to anyone. On leaving my daughter said we will be back for her wedding. I can't say thank you enough to Meirion and Gill, great people and we hope to be back one day.

We had a really lovely Easter weekend in the barn. It was the perfect space for two families to spend time and the location is just fantastic. The barn is more than comfortable and has been furnished to an exceptional standard. Just a joy to be in. Meirion and Gill were always on hand if we had any questions.

I booked to stay in Gill and Meirion's gorgeous barn conversion for 2 nights for a friend's hen party (party of 8). Gill and Meirion were extremely welcoming, and the house was even more beautiful than the pictures, set in the most idyllic, peaceful surroundings. It had all the comforts of home, with some little touches that you would expect at a 5 star hotel. Before heading home, we were lucky enough to also get a tour of the other beautiful barn conversions available for weddings and parties - I would highly recommend a viewing if you have either coming up. The hen was actually disappointed that she hadn't discovered it before booking her big day! Thank you Gill and Meirion, we all completely fell in love with Caerhyn farm - it exceeded our expectations and we will definitely be looking to return.

Such a wonderful location, beautiful place to stay. Would definitely recommend a visit here!

My wife and I spent a very agreeable five days chez Mariella. Llangadog is an easy drive from larger towns, Llandeilo in particular, and from the National Park. Mariella’s house is situated next to a pleasant pub, whose kitchen serves surprisingly good evening meals, and 30 seconds on foot to the newsagent and a grocery, in the main street through the village. The latter proximity entailed exposure to early morning traffic and loading noise, the only negative point but not too serious – my wife didn´t notice it. Mariella was welcoming and cheerful, looked after our needs and a fund of information on the locality. In addition to providing an excellent breakfast (fruit-yoghurt-bread style) she made the extensive kitchen facilities available to us, a boon since one cannot live by resto meals alone. The house was occupied also by a sister, a nephew and an invalid mother, but it is spacious (we had our own bathroom) and there was little or no sense of intrusion. The mother is well cared for though she necessarily monopolizes the TV – not a bother for us but TV addicts will find there is none in the room. We were able to park safely on the street ; good relations with the pub means that its courtyard is a back-up parking possibility. Web connectivity was OK, a bit uneven - our foreign phone provision might not have been perfectly adapted. Bathroom and shower facilities very good, after trick with activating shower flow learnt. Altogether we recommend Mariella’s place as excellent value as a comfortable base for an exploration of the Brecon Beacons region.

It's a beautiful house and a spacious bedroom. We had a bathroom all to ourselves. We slept very well. Like everywhere else in the village, it overlooks the main road, but not a very busy one and the traffic stopped at night. We had the window partly open and still werent disturbed. The breakfast was muesli, fruit, bread and preserves, croissants, all fresh and tasty. Mariella was very welcoming and helpful.

As a family of four, we really felt at home with Mariella. She made sure we had everything we needed and more. Our 4 y.o. son was also really delighted to play with all the toys. The room was as described, and breakfast just perfect!

Great short stay, Mariella is a lovely person who makes you feel welcome.

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We had a lovely stay at Mariellas home. She was very friendly and the room was simply amazing. We also sat together and had some wine/beer with Mariella, her boyfriend and her mother. They are all nice people, definitely a 10/10 air-bnb!

Comfortable room in a large olde character house with many original features and which is also a home. Pub meal next door was substantial and well priced with local options.

A large room in an old and interesting family home. Mariella and her sister Alli were very welcoming, and the continental breakfast was lovely.

Just what I had imagined and more, a secluded idillic location, the owners were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. If you are looking for a romantic/peaceful getaway then this is for you. The shepherds hut is absolutely delightful and full of character, the surrounding area is absolutely beautiful with the best views, the hot tub was fantastic sat under the stars with a bottle of wine listening to the wildlife, you will not get better. My husband and I will definitely be back, we have to try all of the vans/huts now. Many Thanks again for being great hosts.

We had a lovely time in the charming and secluded Shepherd's Hut. The hot tub was an added bonus! Beautiful views around the farm. Helpful and friendly hosts.

It was a lovely escape from the city. Beautiful setting with complete serenity except for the lovely family of ducks who greeted us each morning!

My girl friend and I arrived to a lovely warm welcome. We we shown where to grab the wood for the hot tub & indoor fire. The hut was set amongst the most beautiful scenery! Especially the view from the Poetry room( toilet). Stunning views of the stars at night sitting in the hot tub. My girlfriend and I will return to detox from a stressful London life style

We loved our stay at the shepherds hut - the weather was atrocious but the wood burner kept us cosy. The hosts were welcoming and flexible and we enjoyed being completely off grid, the lack of mod cons makes a nice change. We'll be back to try out the other huts! Thank you so much :)

Lovely location, friendly hosts, left to do our own thing.

Idyllic surroundings, friendly hosts, comfortable bed, wonderful hot tub and plenty of fire wood. We would definitely visit again.

This is a wonderful choice if you want to get "off the grid". Secluded, silent, and minimalistic. The wood fire heated hot tub is a fantastic bonus. Mili is a professional and courteous host. Her welcome details on the property were concise and accurate and she willingly accommodated our flexible and late arrival arrival time.

Fantastic secluded property where the only thing you can hear is silence, and the odd tractor or sheep. If you want to relax, walk the great country side and get drunk on the fresh air then this is the place to come to. The welcome hamper deserves a special mention. Internal furnishings and finish are to a high standard. You will be very comfortable.

We loved our time at Blaencwm Lodge. Splendid welcome hamper, delightful cottage, beautifully appointed, fantastic location. Highly recommended.

Blaencwm lodge is special. Peaceful, restful retreat away from it all. Home from home with all we needed to enjoy a break in the stunning Llangadog countryside. Beautiful inside as well as out.

This was our first trip to Blaencwym Lodge, and in fact our first trip to Wales. The Lodge and the country both exceeded our expectations! This was the perfect cottage experience we were going for in Wales. The owners speak to keeping the feel of the original 17th century but offering modern feel. We felt they succeeded on both accounts. The Welsh countryside was relaxing, and we enjoyed listening to the sheep, cows, birds, and stream out back of the cottage. We spent each evening sitting outside, soaking it in. The Lodge is a good "central" location to everything in southern Wales, but do know that you will have to drive a bit to everything. But the driving was half the fun!! The country roads in Wales are a blast to drive on! We used the Lodge as a base for Pembrokeshire, Gower, Brecon Beacons, and the cities of Cardiff and Swansea. Despite being from the States, we truly hope to make it again! - from Minnesota, USA

Blaencwm is set on its own in a beautiful, peaceful location. We arrived to find the most wonderful gift pack which included a delicious home made granola plus lemon and honey cake, organic croissants and yogurt, milk and eggs from the owners hens. The cottage is very well appointed and has everything one could wish for including a very comfy king size bed. It is right on the edge of the Brecon Beacons and you can hike straight from the door. We had good weather and it was so relaxing to sit outside and listen to the babbling brook and see the amazing range of birds and wildlife in the garden below. There is a very adventurous squirrel who kept us entertained with his attempts to steal the bird nuts. In the evening we simply curled up in front of the amply supplied ,roaring woodburner and enjoyed some of the best pies ever from the local butcher in the nearby village. Blaencwm is certainly a property that we would thoroughly recommend and we intend to return next year.

Very peaceful and secluded - there are neighbours out of sight and some way up the road, so occasionally you'll see/hear them go up the lane outside the window, but that's it! Out the back is fields and a stream and distant hills, very tranquil. There is a red kite feeding station nearby and we saw some from the kitchen window, as well as driving nearby, and they were quite magnificent. Charming cottage - very characterful with thick stone walls, but also comfortable and light, with a large, well-equipped kitchen. We had a medium-sized car with us but had no trouble at all parking - reversing along such a quiet lane is no bother. Small tip for guests: Unfortunately I couldn't go in the living room - I tried a couple of times and came out with allergies and a rash. (I think maybe something to do with the sofa?) I was absolutely fine in the rest of the cottage. Maybe it's just me, but if you're particularly prone to allergies generally, do take some antihistamines with you, just in case. The kitchen is large and has lovely views, so it wasn't a big problem anyway! Sue and John were exceedingly helpful at every stage, quick to respond and gave all information needed for an easy trip. They provided a lovely hamper and card to welcome us and phoned to check in on us. Very attentive and friendly. We would definitely recommend this cottage, especially if you're looking for somewhere peaceful and picturesque. We had a wonderful time and hope to come back!

My husband, our 16 month old son and I spent a lovely week at the cottage. It was in a peaceful and rural location away from touristy areas but still close enough by car to a couple of villages and of course to beautiful places to visit. We adjusted our visits to the weather and all in all we had bits and days of beautiful sun mixed with moments and days of rain. Now we now that is how it works in Wales so we just went with it. As a tip, sometimes travelling out from the area for 40 mins might bring you to a sunnier location. We used the cottage to visit waterfalls, castles, the red kite centre, the national wool museum (on a rainy day, still interesting and we got a nice blanket and scarfs and the drive from the cottage to it was amazing!). Driving in Wales has made our trip. We used the site (URL HIDDEN) for reference and it was worth it. Check their suggestions for drives, some that we took are breathtaking. Saying that, we did not see any ugly bit of of Wales from the road... If there is any is well hidden but we doubt there is. And about the cottage, it is beautiful, nicely decorated, airy and surprisingly bright. Nice quality bedding too. John and Sue left a lovely basket with goodies, a very touching and appreciated detail. Lovely cake, granola, eggs... The garden is lovely too with nice views and three sitting locations to choose from! If you are adults you will be fine, with a walking baby you just need to keep a close eye. We communicated mainly with John, and he always responded timely with useful information. We had a chat on the phone on the first day to help us settle in. Just to note that due to the location of the cottage you would need your own car. Regarding the parking, we found that it was easier to reverse the car doing a tight three point turn than to reverse from down the lane... But I am quite bad at reversing for longish distances and better at three point turns... We highly recommend the cottage and the area both towards the Brecon Beacons park but also going in the other directions. We loved Wales and the nice Welsh people that we were lucky enough to meet. Very welcoming.

We chose Blaencwm Lodge because we needed a quiet and cost getaway, not too far from Cardiff while we had building work done. The cottage was beautiful, secluded, cosy. It was a perfect romantic getaway. The welcome hamper of local treats was delicious. Our highlights were walking to the Goose and Cuckoo for Sunday lunch and seeing the Red Kites being fed near Myddfai. Highly recommended for a romantic retreat with lots of nature and peace.

Es war einfach super. Von der ersten Minute an herrschte eine sehr angenehme Stimmung. Aura und Martin sind ausgesprochen sympathisch. Wir haben uns auch am nächsten Tag noch über viele Themen ausgetauscht. Für unsere Reise ein echter Gewinn. Hervorzuheben ist das unvergleichliche Frühstück. Ausgesprochen vielseitig. Ansonsten: top sauber, sehr gute Matratzen, großes Badezimmer. Wir können das B&B nur empfehlen. The stay at Auras home was perfect and we highly recommend this B&B.

We spent one night in the Blaen y Garn B&B and it was a highlight of our trip to explore Wales. Aura and Martin made us feel most welcome in their lovingly warm and beautiful home. We were treated with a cake on arrival and a delicious breakfast next morning, with a selection of jams from Aura’s kitchen and Martin’s own honey, which kept us going for a long time! And no less we enjoyed talking to our hosts. Both the room and the private bathroom were very spacious and spotlessly clean. This was the best B&B we came across and I would highly recommend this wonderful place for a peaceful and most comfortable stay. Thank you so much, Aura and Martin, for making our short visit very special and memorable! We would love to come again. With warm wishes, Natasha, Svetlana and Nicholas

Lovely B&B run by great hosts making the stay just perfect. Superb breakfast in the morning! Highlyrecommend!!

Ha sido una increible experiencia en esta villa compartiendo con la gente mas maravillosa. El lugar esta rodeado de naturaleza y hermosos lugares donde hacer caminatas. El transporte publico puede ser un poco escaso por lo que es necesario planificar bien los paseos.

Very quiet, lovely location. Karen is a super host. Very relaxing stay. Would love a return visit.

The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Lovely BnB close to the Brecon beacons, perfect for walking or cycling trips out. Marian was a great host.

Marian and Arwyn were very nice and cheerful hosts. Our room was spacious with an ensuite bathroom. Everything was clean. The cooked Welsh breakfast was delicious and filling. Location ideal, short drive to Llandovery for various restaurants and pub options. And an easy drive to different hikes and sights to visit. Would recommend this bnb and visiting the area.

Marian is a perfect host making us feel very welcome. The accommodation was excellent with a lovely sized bedroom and very comfortable beds. Plenty of parking was great for our car & trailer. Breakfast was perfect and set us up for the day, this was eaten in a beautiful dining room. There are plenty of excellent eating places in Llandovery. We would thoroughly recommend this for a stay.

Great place, nice people, excellent breakfast, proper B&B.

My wife and I enjoy AirBnB as a way to travel and generally stay "on the cheap." On this occasion we decided to splurge a bit and it was so worth the money! From the moment we arrived we were warmly greeted and welcomed by our host Arwyn (as Marian was busy outside). We were first struck by the gorgeous 17th century longhouse (albeit very tastefully added on to over the years) and the quiet, peaceful setting. Later, upon meeting Marian, we were warmly welcomed once again and given choices for our morning breakfast. We were also offered some much wanted (and needed) instruction in Welsh language :) Marian gave us a plethora of places to see during our stay—from St David's Cathedral (a bit of a drive) to the Brecon Beacons (just "next door")—and we were gobsmacked with the beauty of this area, both architecturally and naturally. It was a joy to return each evening to the quiet and warmth of this beautiful home and our immaculate, and perfectly furnished, room. I would personally say that this home is much nicer than it is depicted and no one can describe the surrounding areas as they are simply too fabulous. This was a five star experience for us! Egil & Holly

We had a great few days. There are plenty of places to go walking although dogs do we to stay on the lead for most of the time. The bungalow was great. Three good sized bedrooms with a decent kitchen. Bathroom is OK and there stereo toilets. Dave and Val are very welcoming and get the balance right of being very helpful but also giving you your space. A great place for exploring the area but you do need a car. Would happily recommend.

This was a great place with wonderful people and a perfect spot to explore the Brecon Beacons national park.

David's cottage exceeded expectation - comfort, cozy, and situated in an impossibly-scenic region of Wales. With easy access to Brecon Beacons National Park - an easy day trip to the amazing Snowdonia, and easy access to the coasts of Swansea and Pembrokeshire, the cottage made a perfect basecamp for our trip. Now about David. From booking to departure he was responsive and helpful - aiding us in everything from directions to suggestions, and his warm and inviting nature itself will ensure a return visit from us. David welcomed us into his cottage, and life, and swapped stories as if old friends. The price was a great value, and plenty of room for 4 adults to comfortably stay. The Brecon Beacons park is amazing - and David's cottage is right center.

If I could give hospitality and location 10 stars out of 5, I would do it! Dave and his wife Val are the friendliest hosts we've ever had the privilege of getting to know. They are warm, lovely people. You are not taking full advantage of the perks of your stay if you don't take some time to get to know them. They have a wealth of local knowledge and are really welcoming. The location also cannot be beat. The "chapel in the paradise" is a peaceful, serene retreat in magnificent countryside. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

brilliant friendly place to stay.lovely cottage.ideal for our family holiday

Thanks Dave and Val for your very nice cottage it was a real pleasure to stay at yours for those 2 days. All the family really enjoyed it and your advices for activities were very good ! Nice place, peaceful and perfect to relax for family holiday. Very clean and well tied up. Located in the middle of the Brecon Beacons so perfect for outdoors activities and discover Welsh landscapes which was why we came for.

A group of us wanted to escape to the 'wild' for a bank holiday weekend and we couldn't have found a more perfect setting to do so. The western Brecons are spectacular, sparsely populated yet accessible from all parts of the country. Dealing with Becca beforehand was very easy and she was extremely helpful with directions and information. The house itself has clearly been restored with care and felt like a luxurious but cosy home for several couples. The surrounds are exactly as advertised: 'stunning'; the farmhouse is beautiful, both inside and out. Overall, this was an outstanding airbnb, both for value and experience. We would definitely stay again, and could happily spend weeks exploring this beautiful, wild part of wales.

Becca is a superb, communicative, friendly host with an amazing farmhouse decorated nicely in an amazing location for the Beacons. The house is comfortable and has everything you might need. It was a pleasure to stay there and she accommodated every need we had. A1

This was one of the best air b n b experiences I have had. Becca was a great host from the get go, easy to communicate with an went the extra mile to make our stay over Christmas as good as it could be. The house is wonderful, fully equipped more than enough space inside and out, in a lovely quite location surrounded by incredible countryside. Would strongly recommend this listing to all if planning a trip to the brecons

We had a lovely weekend at Bryn Capel. Perfect house for a getaway with a gang. Becca was incredibly helpful with tips and suggestions and flexible with checkout time so we could go on one last walk. Would highly recommend for those that want a proper escape to the country. Thank you!

Becca & her house are wonderful. We felt very welcomed. The house is recently sensitively restored to a very high standard. It's bright, spacious yet warm and full of lovely furniture and artwork. Kitchen was a pleasure to cook in, lot's of equipment. The location is remote, as we wanted, deep in the Brecons, so plan ahead with food, though Tesco deliver... Highly recommended.

There was a few lovely little touches on arrival that both kids and grown ups enjoyed! The house was perfectly located for long walks and exploring the beautiful area. Spoke to a few of the locals on walking routes and where to buy fresh eggs, both paid off! The weather was really bad on our first day but the wood burner and lots of space made it just right for a big family! Comfortable beds, nice bathrooms. Quick response from host with all our questions! Thank you!

Becca is so well organised, we found the place easily and everything we needed to know about the house was covered in her blurb. The place was amazing, so spacious yet homley and in a perfect location! (the middle of nowhere) also had every kitchen implement you could possibly need for self catering! Because it was easter there was a Church Fete across the road, we met some locals and drunk some tea! friendly village life. The activities that Becca recommended were also great, the near by Castle, and Lake and just wandering in the mountains near the house. We will defiantly be back. Highly recommended!

We had an absolutely lovely time staying at Becca s house in Wales. It was perfect for our needs, a big family get together. Large, light, spacious and much much nicer than the pictures show. Our satnav took us over a bleak moor, swirling mists, wild horses and a proper exciting journey to a different world. It must have been the perfect time to visit with all the trees changing colour, misty hills and complete peace. Only sorry we werent staying longer as it would have been a brilliant place to walk and explore. We did get to the castle where we braved the dungeons. The views were spectacular and a good time was had by all. Thank you

Incredibly charming house in Myddfai! We used this as a "home base" as we toured various parts of Wales and it was perfect. There are tons of walks near the house and many within a twenty minutes drive. (Our favorite was the hike up to the "Lady of the Lake" glacial lake! Perfect for photography, walking, and sheep-sightings). I highly recommend this place and Sophie-- she was quick to respond with suggestions about where to go and answered all of our questions. The house is also very comfortable and beautiful (most comfortable beds ever!) and includes a kitchen area you can use and even an outdoor patio in the garden. Would definitely return for a longer trip (ideal place for a week + type of rental).

We had a brilliant time, Sophie's house is lovely and we particularly enjoyed the enjoyed the cozy lounge and having a quiet drink in the courtyard garden. We used the stay for a walking break on Pen Y Fan in the Brecon Beacons and it's location was good. We didn't explore our surroundings, but reading the visitor book suggested there was plenty of interesting things to do outside of walking the hills! After a tiring days walk, the bed was comfortable, beautifully presented and clean. Thanks again, Andy

This is a beautiful, spacious house. We had four people but it would be equally comfortable with six. Sophie left fantastic instructions for the house, including a list of things to do and see while in the area. We went to see red kites being fed - can't recommend that enough, it was the highlight of our trip. The village of Myddfai is very small, but has a neat visitors center/ cafe/ gift shop which is worth a visit. Llandovery is a ten minute drive away and has some lovely pubs as well as a co-op for groceries.

The house was well equipped and immaculately presented the was no negatives only positives to our break away.

If you're wanting to stay in the Brecon Beacons, this is the perfect place. In a quaint Welsh village, people are friendly and the staff in the visitor information centre (right behind the house) are so happy to Help. We arrived to a selection of eggs and Welsh cakes (which we fell in love with). There was enough coffee pods for one morning, And also instant coffee and tea. The house is adequately heated, beds are comfy and the house is super clean. Be sure to follow Sophie's instructions if you want to heat the house and shower water. Plenty of parking right outside the house!

A lovely place to stay for anybody considering a break in the Brecon Beacons. We would highly recommend, the hosts made it feel like a home from home.

Super cozy place! The house design was beautiful and we enjoyed it a lot during the two days we spent there. Probably top 10 of the area!

The House is really nice and comfortable and ideal to start your exploration of Brecon Beacons.

We had a great stay at Mandy's place. 6 of us had enough space for everything that we needed and more. Cottage was equipped with everything that we could think of. Location is very convenient for walks. We went for one recommend by Mandy and what a day it was! Pictures can't do justice to how nice the cottage is. Mandy is a great host. We'll definitely going to be back :-)

4 of us stayed for the weekend to have a quiet and relaxing time in the lead up to Xmas. The house is perfect, cosy with everything we could possibly need. We enjoyed the fires and the beds were very comfy. The town is a 20min walk or a 3 min drive, plenty of lovely small shops and the food at the Castle hotel was brilliant. Mandy (the host) was very helpful and responded to all messages quickly. Would recommend to others and will stay again in the future.

Just go!!

We had a wonderful time staying in Mandy's beautiful home. Great location for walking and exploring the Brecon Beacons and surrounding area. Nearby town has all the essentials. The house itself was cosy and full of character with lots of interesting little features everywhere you look. We were toasty and warm, despite the weather being damp outside. Mandy was very welcoming and friendly and gave us lots of ideas for things to do. My only regret is that we couldn't have stayed a bit longer!! Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us Mandy!

The place was clean and very cosy. There was plenty of room for all four of my children as well as my husband and I. We loved the open fire in the lounge and the coal burning stove in the kitchen the most. The beds were very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay when in area and have a nice relaxing time. Mandy was very good and friendly too. The house was clean and exceeded all our expectations. Will return again.

My husband and I stayed in Mandy's beautiful barn with four other friends for 3 nights. Every bedroom was fantastically characterful and comfortable. We enjoyed cosy-ing up by the open fire in the sitting room each evening and on one of the nights we lit the outdoor fire and star gazed - spectacular! Mandy the host was accommodating and friendly. We'll be back!

Lovely venue, in a picturesque location in Wales with a fantastic host! Highly recommended.
