BBQ Hut | Log Burner | Valley Views

Packed with character cottage charm and with all the amenities needed for your stay, Walker’s Cottage is the perfect base to escape, recharge and find adventure.

Situated in the village of Pontsticill, Walker’s Cottage offers a perfect base to enjoy the best routes and scenery the Brecon Beacons has to offer – less than 20 minutes from the base of Pen y Fan or the famous Ystradfellte Four Waterfalls, as well as a choice of outdoor activities and equipment hire available within the village.

Meticulously designed to be comfortable and inviting from the moment you step in, the cottage features a traditional log burner in the living area, king and double bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with extra-large bath and separate shower room.

An additional two guests can be accommodated, with the sofa becoming a sofa bed when required.

The outside spaces are just as inviting, with a large, fully functional Scandinavian BBQ hut atop the tiered garden, and adjoining terrace that offers views over the Taf Fechan valley, ideal for unwinding in the setting sun or under the starry night sky.

Breakfast on the front terrace in the peaceful morning village sunshine, before a day spent discovering the beauty of the Brecon Beacons, is a personally recommended way to start your day.

Parking is available directly outside the property. If your party is arriving in more than one car and requires additional parking, let us know in advance and we can arrange for use of our drive (located a minute from the cottage).

Access to the secret garden is via a communal walkway at the back of the cottage, shared with the row (as traditionally built). The garden itself is for your private use only.

We provide wood for the indoor burner and coal for the BBQ for your first night’s stay, you may bring additional with you, or pre-order of extra fuel is available, contact us following your booking to arrange with us directly.

Feel free to message us for more details on our Sunday to Thursday special offers.

We look forward to welcoming you soon!
