    I cannot fault Ynyswen Cottage. Every little detail had been thought about. It made for the best weekend catch up with friends.

Property information

Nestled in the stunning countryside of the Brecon Beacons, just a stone's throw from the market towns of Llandeilo and Llandovery, Ynyswen No.1 is a cosy cottage retreat for the whole family. Lovingly restored in 2022, the cottage offers a modern finish with rustic features, stained glass panels (made by Lesley, the owner), a cosy log-burner and expansive gardens. If you enjoy hiking, stargazing, cycling or bird watching, this is a perfect base, with lots for all ages to explore.

Neighbourhood information

Myddfai is a beautiful village situated within the Brecon Beacons National Park. It is a popular tourist destination famous for being home to the Physicians of Myddfai, a family of physicians who lived in the parish and prepared herbal medicines for over four centuries. It’s also a great location to explore the Brecon Beacons, one of the most famous mountain ranges in Wales, and the National Park, which includes the Black Mountains and popular Pen y Fan. Myddfai’s closest town is Llandovery, an ancient market town with an unhurried charm and traditional shops, including butchers, bakers, delicatessen, and Wales’ oldest independent Welsh bank, The Black Ox. This is also where the nearest shops and petrol stations are. Take time to visit Llandovery’s Heritage Centre, where you’ll find out more about the droving history of these valleys. The nearby Norman castle is the spot where Henry VI executed a supporter of the Welsh rebellion, Llywelyn ap Gruffydd Fychan – his statue stands next to the ruins as a testament to the history of the Welsh and Norman skirmishes across this area. 20 minutes away is the colourful, picturesque market town of Llandeilo. Perched atop a hillside above the River Towy and with an impressive 19th century stone bridge, Llandeilo is the place to visit for great food and bespoke shops. There’s a unique array of goods on offer from antiques to crafts, books to jewellery in these quirky shops. Visit Ginhaus Deli for an upmarket lunch or Café Braz for excellent coffee and cake. The Cawdor Arms Hotel offers stunning evening meals, and it’s worth looking around inside the 18th century bright red walls. If you’re a fan of castles, then you’ve come to the right area. Dinefwr Castle is a great day out for all the family. Re-live Edwardian life in Newton's house, and explore the impactful ruins of the castle itself, home to Welsh princes for generations. Then, why not have a picnic in the restored parkland, or visit the tea rooms for light refreshments
