A 17th-century cottage, the stylings on offer here make it feel more like a manor house with plenty of singular, historic charm. Sitting within mature gardens and boasting incredible views of Tretower Court and Castle – a creation of Sir Roger Vaughan – you'll feel perfectly regal as you wander the home's halls admiring heirloom paintings and armour, or while drinking Penderyn whisky as you gaze upon the castle against the backdrop of the Black Mountains.

Make yourself comfortable on the Chesterfield sofas while enjoying the warm glow of the lounge's wood-burning fire. You've got a selection of books to snuggle up with, as well as a chess board to enjoy. The huge oak rectory table beckons celebratory meals cooked up in the farmhouse-style kitchen, while nothing finishes a night quite like climbing the beautiful spiral stone staircase and retreating to the lovingly curated bedrooms. Which one will you choose? The 'William Morris Room', the 'Rose Room', the 'Laura Ashley Room' or the 'Duck Room'?

Ideal for groups, there's also a ‘Cwtch’ complete with a kitchenette and bathroom that makes it the perfect space for a couple who’d like a little more privacy.

When you’re not spending time admiring the home's awe-worthy interiors, head outside to enjoy plenty of fun outdoor games like darts, ping pong and garden Jenga. Soak up some sun on the outdoor swing as you marvel at yet more castle and mountain views, and gather around the huge fire pit at dusk to savour sociable drinks as the stars come out one by one.

And should you wish to venture out for a spot of exploring, you've got the beauty of the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons inviting you to lose yourself in hiking, cycling and fishing aplenty. You're also a three-minute walk from the nearest restaurant, while a plethora of charming towns and villages wait to be discovered nearby.
