This was a memorable return to Duck cottage,10 years after our original stay.
A lovely location, ideally placed for chilling out and exploring the beautiful Breconshire countryside. A well equipped and comfortable cottage that turned up trumps again.

Thank you for your comments and we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay in Duck Cottage. The good news is that we are going to get Wireless fitted and so our wi-fi connection will be much better. Hopefully this will be done by August!

Again a pleasant stay in Duck cottage
We were in Duck cottage at Alltybrain farm for the second time. The cottage is well equipped with a very large bed with outstanding nature views. All that in a quiet environment with a super friendly owner (Rose). Thanks for the excellent stay again!

Comfortable spacious accommodation in an ideal location for exploring the Brecon Beacons.
Enjoyable, relaxing week's holiday in comfortable spacious accommodation. Ideal spot for exploring the Brecon Beacons. Fantastic views across countryside to the beacons from living room and bedroom windows. South facing private courtyard with picnic bench and countryside views. The working small holding adds to the atmosphere of the location. The well insulated cottage is warmed by central heating and also has a log burner which adds a cosy feeling.
