Property code: BN275

This beautiful property is self-contained wing of a large Grade I listed house situated on a 2000-acre working rural estate, perfect for a family or friends’ get together in a fabulous part of Wales

Once a former residence for servants of a grand estate, this historic property sleeps up to 14 guests across six bedrooms and is an enchanting setting for your big group holiday. A designated National Park, the surrounding Brecon Beacons is studded with castle ruins, market towns, impressive summits and spectacular countryside where you can enjoy adventure and escapism in equal measure. You’ll have plenty to discover on-site with shared gems such as a maze and Victorian rose gardens, and there are fly-fishing and tennis opportunities too.

 

Overlooking the waters of the River Usk, your spacious accommodation combines classic style with contemporary convenience and has some seriously impressive views to boot. Serve up tea and cake in the Victorian-style kitchen/diner and start planning your itinerary, factoring in lots of hearty meals crafted using seasonal vegetables from the estate gardens and locally sourced produce. A curved staircase leads to the lounge on the first floor, which will quickly become the hub of the home for family films and soothing nightcaps. Each bedroom carries its own unique charm and all sharing a combination of bathrooms over the first and second floors. There are six bedrooms in total including two that have been converted from the original kitchen and sitting room on the first floor, and four cosy bedrooms on the second floor. The cherry on the cake has to be your fabulous outside space, where you’ll have shared use of a pretty courtyard with garden furniture and a BBQ for al fresco feasts. Work off your supper with a stroll around the estate, admiring the gardens and immaculately maintained shrubbery or making good use of the on-site facilities.

We absolutely loved our holiday in the courtyard wing. We were a multi-generational family staying with lots of young children and they had the best time exploring the beautiful grounds and splashing in the river. There's really not much need to leave the site when the weather is fine. The owners were very friendly and helpful and we had one issue Read morethat the owners had no control over but they sorted it out really quickly. We would definitely return! Thank you! Hide

Comfortable and well-equipped house with plenty of character, but the star of the show is the setting: it was lovely to be able to enjoy the grounds of Penpont, and the easy access to river and hill walks. Would love to come back!

The Courtyard wing was the perfect location for our hen do. We were in the countryside, everything was beautiful. The rooms were so cosy and welcoming and the people were so friendly. Was a shame we couldn't stay longer!
